Envy

At the end, the fact that Envy was able to, through sheer force of will, Command what is essentially the universe itself to take him to hohenheim, is beyond impressive. It shows just how deep his hatred for his father goes.

FMA 03 had such an air of hopelessness which is what partially got me into the series.

"Taller version of you?" Is that foreshadowing Envy? Cuz his actual true self is basically an older and taller Ed.

"But I don't know, I'm really more of a pacifist." Haha. Funny. Says the most sadistic and violent, war loving and murderous, unpredictable Homunculus in FMA. That line made me laugh out loud.

I love when envy said "whoever you want me to be" it kinda sounded like a flirtatious attempt

Envy: Transforms in Mustang Also Envy: “Errors have been made...”

Envy is definitely more ruthless in the 2003 anime than he was in the manga and brotherhood anime. Not to mention that he had a more personal vendetta with both Al and especially Ed.

Envy: “What gave me away?” Ed: “Nothing. I just don’t like that guy.”

I like when FMA Envy refers to himself as a pacifist while Manga/Brotherhood says there's no need to fight, someone might get hurt you know. In its in the tones, FMA is more calm and smooth and FMA is raspy and violent. It reveals a lot of their characters later on. The FMA's Envy slowly becoming the characteristic raspiness- revealing the violent bloodthirsty monster that he truly is. The Brotherhood's is very emotional, very sadistic, monstrous in his large form yet in its true form- its cute and trying too hard to be violent and in Envy's dying moments, its sort of mellow, babyish....kind tone. Showing that the FMA 2003 Envy is a monster at heart while the Brotherhood could've been better if allowed the chance.

3:05 That single line, reflects so much and so well everything that defines this version of Envy, that hate, that rage, but also, that sadness almost to the point of crying, all this emotions reflects his conflict with hohenheim and mental state, and also, one of the reasons to why I love so much the english dub of Fma (either 2003 or Brotherhood).

0:34 "maybe a taller version of you" is a line that just hits so different rewatching 03 cause like, both Ed and Envy strongly resemble Hohenheim, so its such a funny taunt cause like thats what Envy would ACTUALLY look like

0:49 a more serious version of..."LUCKY MEE!!!"

The voice of Hohenheim’s son is very soothing. Before he screamed “TO MY FATHER!”

Envy's death scene was well written. Particularly where he's changing forms as he declares his hatred for Hohenheim.

Envy felt more like a Wrath here than Envy. I'd even go so far as to say Envy and Wrath should switch namesakes in 03, because Wrath seeks to have what Ed has, a normal body and a mother, and Envy is fueled by his hate for Hoenhiem and wants to kill him. But I guess since it started out faithful in the manga, the 03 series couldn't walk back any roles aside from 2 others. Regardless, 03 is special to me. I adore it. <3

Fullmetal Pipsqueak the anime

0:28 - God damn that is some amazing foreshadowing

This Envy is better than his actual depiction. By actual I mean how his mangaka made him. The studio took chances and made Envy amazing. A rare sight and does even out Kimblee's floppy mess in FMA

So, Envy was stuck in dragon form, because like with Ed, Alchemy doesn't usually work in our world.

Envy was actually better in the first anime.
