It's certainly in my top five favorite manga series, not least because of how absolutely batshit insane it becomes.

Ohh my

FMA and FMA:B have pretty good dubs, in my opinion (which ruined the voice actor for Ed, because he can only sound like Edward which can get pretty irritating when working on other series). Watch FMA:B over FMA, of course.
I would recommend watching them both. They are both good series, even if FMA:B is more faithful to the manga, and a lot of the scenes that were featured in both were done a bit better in FMA (dramatically speaking) in my opinion. I'd recommend watching FMA first because the major plot points they have in common (mostly the first season of FMA:B) are revealed in a more satisfying manner in that series.
From what i am told, watch FMA halfway until you reach the death of someone important that i cant remember, then you can continue on with Brotherhood.
So, being sick and having the time... rewatched FMA.

Original FMA, up to episode 25.
FMA: Brotherhood, episode 10 and beyond.
Episode 25(and some of 24) and episode B10 is the same episode, but I'd watch it anyways to ease into Brotherhood.
There will of course be some contradictions since the original FMA did not follow the manga as closely as Brotherhood does.

Either way, seems a good way to go through the anime.  The original's first 25 episodes is much more satisfying and better paced then 1-10 of brotherhood.

Heartbreaking... the end of episode 25 isn't it?

EDIT: Also, the intro and ending music is way better in the original.

I decided to watch Sword Art Online and while it's good, I find it incredibly awkward how seriously they talk about "levels" and "experience points", even if their lives technically depend on how many boars they kill.

Angel Beats!  Get chance and luck!

EDIT:
This is irrelevant, but now that I think about it Haruhi and Angel Beats both have baseball episodes that made me laugh.  I'm not sure what comedic properties baseball has but it somehow works (no Little Busters doesn't count).

I think it is because Baseball isn't as homogenous in terms of the team.

When you are watching Soccor you can completely forget the teams have players.

*bitchslaps Dei* for giving me a hard time for referring to Higurashi as a Yandere series rather than Yangire. Turns out the term Yangire was itself derived from Yandere in 2007 (from the series Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS), well after Higurashi was released. Excuse me for not being up on every neologism (and the creators of Higurashi themselves obviously NEVER referred to it as Yangire).

Yeah, it's not a series bolted together by a committee so tropes don't really apply.

Been watching the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure TV series.


My cod, what the fuck. As an example as to how crazy it is, the newest villains are homoerotic Aztec double vampires. Yes, double vampires; they eat vampires, you see.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
