“FMA is bad because it portrays war criminals as sympathetic, likable people” bro that’s the point. That’s the whole point. That is THE point. Did you think Ethnic Cleanser is some kind of special category of person that gets separated away from all the Good People at birth? Did you think there’s some kind of barn full of Genocide Doers that only gets deployed into the general public during world wars? Did you think assholes who do terrible shit in real life are never charming or likable or capable of doing good things and helping people? One of the best parts of FMA is how we the audience realize that some of our core protags have made irredeemable choices, and we have to reckon with the fact that they’re still people, with the unalienable rights and qualities thereof. Sorry if the Problematics aren’t constantly wearing a dunce cap and a list of all their crimes and this makes the media incomprehensible to you

Can I have uuuuuh the gals rescuing the guys?
Don't get me wrong, I love it when the gals need saving. But the guys need help from their gals too.
I wanna see a badass gal with noncombative guy (platonic or romantic!) I wanna see the gal save the guy from distress. I wanna see the gal kick ass, free the guy from his bonds, and carry him to safety like a knight in shining armor, but it's the knight who needs saving.
Let me see badass gals save the dudes. Please? 🥺

I thought no one was going to save me and then someone did maybe I was lucky but actually I think I just let go and landed

a ship dynamic that's less of an "italicized 'oh' moment" and more of an "italicized 'ah fuck' moment"

“This character is dead in canon” to you. They’re dead in canon to you. To me they’re fine
