what the shit is this zepplin and possible alternate world business
All of the above. You have an incredible world and story created and then think it would be a nice twist to throw WW1 and Nazi's attacking on zeppelins in the mix? This might very well just ruin the series for me. Let's see if the last episodes can fix it.


exactly. if it had been hinted at before, i think it would have been such an interesting direction to take the show but instead they brought it up in the last few episodes so nothing made sense at the end. it felt like a waste of a really promising idea and like a non-ending

Fantastic cinematography used in this episode when Ed was conversing with Dante. The topic and themes of alchemy and equivalent exchange were interesting, but I still find Dante to not be a compelling villain/character whatsoever. The twist with Ed 'transported to the other side' still doesn't click with me and feels really messy and rushed, but at least the Beethoven music was a lovely touch.

I disagree with everyone here. This alternate world really adds a buzz to the anime to that door with eyes. I like it.

Lol. What an insane cliffhanger..

That world before his eyes is so bizarre to him and it's wild to see. I wonder how he'll get out of this situation

I also really love dante and that whole convo was quite engaging and visuals were nice

This twist was unfortunately among the things about this show spoiled for me. I'm curious to see how this all ends.

2022 rewatch
oh, right.. hoheinheim got transferred into an alternate world because for some a reason a baby's cry and a transmutation circle can get people to live in an alternate world..? that's really confusing not gonna lie. and damn, did they really get rid of ed's braid in his alternate self? that's lame as hell.
another problem i have is how exactly did ed know that you can have your soul enter a different body? and how did he know that dante's rotting body was because she has been transferring to bodies for centuries? i don't recall that he learned it was all possible before.
also what's wrong with rose? why is she almost.. non-sentient looking? what happened to her? yeah i have some issues with this episode to say the least.
but i really liked that scene with sheshka and winry, as well as the scene with al and envy.

Did Edward really just ignore what Dante said about fucking him in Rose's body?

We just became an isekai out of nowhere...

And I thought that weird Terminator-knockoff Archer was the weirdest part of the finale so far...

Suddenly sent to the real 1916, I guess the gate wants to traumatize Ed
