FMA vs FMAB

So lots of people liked brotherhood better than the first FMA series, however, I enjoyed the first anime better because I liked the voice actor for al better in the first one. Also I felt like it was more about equivalent exchange.

So am I completely wrong or do I make some fair points.

Oh and I watched them both dubbed

A lot of people deviate towards Bhood because it follows manga directly as opposed to just borrowing concepts, but I just like it more in general. 2003 series was pretty fucking good though.

Also this isn't a debate worthy topic, could have probably just posted this in the anime thread bro.

Agreed, though it can have it's own thread in the media section.

I dropped the original FMA about 30 episodes in. Didn't pick FMA: Brotherhood until quite a while later, but FMA: Brotherhood really hooked my attention. I'm not sure why I lost interest in the original series but I have to say I prefer brotherhood.

the original had a botched original ending and also really messed around with the 7 homunculus
fma:b is probably one of the better adaptations of a manga in general

idk who the actors are in the dubbed one but im pretty sure most of the cast stayed for the original

I liked FMA's atmosphere, but both are good and I like FMA:BH better. I wasn't really bothered all that much with Alphonse's voice change though, I was much more pissy about Greed being asian.
