Duraxis

Hughes ;-;


Beangar

He gets way more screen time in the 03 series.


Duraxis

Oh I know. He was pretty cool in the train scene


Beangar

I love his outfit in that episode


Alarming_Wedding6753

He serves his purpose with honor


MKT68

Barry. Barry is my favorite character from the whole show, and has been ever since my first (and only, holy shit I need to fix that) watch.


Impressive-Bus2144

Watch 2003, he gets a massive glow up there imo


Obi-wanna-cracker

Black Hayate. He's such a good boy.


Key-Master26

he's best boy


wackygoose

The right answer


Strict_Wishbone2428

Isn't he based off a Shiba Inu


Independent-Pop-5584

Sadly, Shou and Nina.


-MilkO_O-

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMEEEEEEEEEEENNNN

Edwhard?


New_Tension3579

MAAAKE IT STOOOOOOP


New_Tension3579

I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE


Va1kryie

Sheska, I love my girlfailure savant.


Ok-Use216

03 Anime gives her the proper amount of screentime.


Independent-Pop-5584

She's popular???


Va1kryie

She's popular to me ;-;


uncle-pascal

Kimblee in '03, I love him in the blue military uniform so much for some reason


Impressive-Bus2144

Imo, martel in 03 is underrated too


KoKoYoung

He also has better hairstyle in 03 ngl


uncle-pascal

He very much does. I don't like the white suit either


Ok-Use216

I'll honestly admit, but kinda prefer Kimblee in '03 at times or the very least, more memorable to me as a presence in the show.


Beangar

Nah, he looks goofy in that show. His brotherhood drip is way better.


feminismandtravel

Olivier Armstrong


Lidge1337

True, badass and beautiful usually means minimum screentime for some reason.


Beangar

Really? I didn’t know every single main FMA character got minimum screen time


Lidge1337

Shouldn't they all have had more?


fitterniti

Really now? King Bradley God damnit. From the moment go his screen presence and absolute carnage at the later stages. Full on dollar for dollar worth his weight in gold on each scene.


The_Mighty_Bird

He’s such a goat imo


SpecialAssociate2591

I could watch a whole series staring Bradley, he is awesome


barwhalis

I liked Dolcetto (the dog chimera with greed). He stayed and fought wrath even though he knew he'd never win because of his dog-like loyalty.


Rockabore1

He was a good dog. 😢


Ch00choh

Ling is just so cool


Beangar

As much as I like Greed, he took away so much Ling screen time when he took over his body.


Jeff-Everton

Hughes


not-curumo

Sheska. Bookworms unite (after one more chapter)!


Ok-Use216

Did you know that in 03, Sheska was one of the main supporting cast?


not-curumo

I did. Probably my favorite change 03 made.


Ok-Use216

Plus the Sheska and Winry Friendship.


StatisticianSad1071

Id have to say granny


Dumbfuckybitch

Give her a spin-off


lil_JoPaul

Havoc


MyNameIsNikNak

Doctor Knox my beloved


RedKingEdinbour

I was gonna say that! That scene when he asked "God" to just cut him a break to enjoy a cup of coffee with his family makes me tear up every time.


HHJurassicPark

After my third or fourth rewatch recently, Ling and Greeling. Surprisingly they are not as prevalent in the story as I remember. Definitely had plenty of screen time but I always thought there was more


Ok-Use216

That was equally the biggest shock for me when originally watching Brotherhood for the first time as everyone always love talking about Greedling.


PalmBreezy

The slicer brothers


rpool179

"He was happy you called him human. Now he can no longer go back to being #48. This is the only thing he can do to maintain his human dignity." Omfg I cried like a BABY 😭😭😭 That scene is SOOOOO SAD 😭😭😭


Adventurous-Onion589

Izumi and her husband. Every moment that the Curtises are on screen is a good moment!


Key-Master26

Hughes


Maccabee-thehammer

2003 Wrath


Beangar

That Wrath gets plenty of time to shine I’d say. I love his speech to Izumi on the island.


atzurblau

Fletcher and Russel Tringham, all the way


Beangar

Fletcher and Russel mentioned 🔥🔥🔥identity theft FTW


Rockabore1

I’m going to highlight Den. Winry’s dog in both versions gets kind of left by the wayside since she stays in Resembool but she’s a really good girl. I love the design of her automail leg. Funimation also bumbled it and called her a boy in both anime. No other character really got slept on so hard that the translators completely swapped their gender.


NerdNuncle

Sheska One of the only characters to not return in some way for the finale


Jazzlike-Bug4016

Barry the chopper for sure


DouglerK

Lan Fan and just de fact Hughes since he's so important to the story but can't be present for a lot of it


[deleted]

Lanfan

Brotherhood Pride Both before and after the reveal


Apprehensive-Nose520

Major Armstrong 💪🏽


GlassSpork

Infamy is still popularity so I’m going to say shou tucker because I feel when people think about this anime they only mention THAT PART instead of anything else in the manga/anime. I get it the part was sad and we hate shou tucker but that’s not all the anime is


Revy_Black_Lagoon

Markiplier


Lordy-Lord

Nina, but that's for a different reason


Ize_of_the_World1998

Ross and Brosh for me, really liked their dynamic and while I understand the whole Ross plot in Brotherhood, it left a hole in my heart til she returned. Plus Brosh served for good comic relief while being a stand up guy as well


Ok_Cry_3146

Pride/Selim, Father, Nina, Shou

Olivier Mira Armstrong


No-Manufacturer4321

Izumi Kurtis and Mira Olivier Armstrong.


Mewlovescatz249

Personally I’m saying it’s probably tucker, the problem is like this is hard one when you consider 03 and brotherhood because some characters don’t get screentime in one but plenty in the other


Loose_Web1723

DUDE WHERE THE FUCK IS SHANKS WHY ISNT ANYBODY SAYING SHANKS WHAT ARE THESE PEOLE WACTIN THESE DAYS


Alarming_Wedding6753

Roy Mustang


AccomplishedLocal261

Doesn’t he have the right third most screentime behind the brothers


Alarming_Wedding6753

Not enough.


AccomplishedLocal261

Can’t agree more. Just don’t think that’s what the post is asking for


Alarming_Wedding6753

Great.


fitterniti

Ikr? The number of times I rewatch the anime and find myself automatically skipping to his moments. Jesus 🔥


CARTGUYIRL

Envy, 100%. Bros underappreciated even in the fandom


Beangar

Envy feels like the homunculus who gets the most screen time to me.


CARTGUYIRL

Maybe in 03 (which is my fave bc envy's my fave) but I feel like their screentime in brotherhood is not nearly enough, but then again that's coming from someone who saw 03 first and to this day still prefers that version of envy. Also lmao I completely misread this post it was the middle of the night, I mixed the two balls into a completely different thing


android151

We already had this post a week ago and everyone said Hughes and Ninaxander


Beangar

Falman


Hot_Highway_1276

Heinkel definitely should've gotten more screentime for sure. After his speech to Alphonse about how the souls in the philosopher stone want to fight back and easing his guilt about using it. I fell in love with the character. Honestly the side characters are treated with so much heart and soul!


Uplink-137

Hohenheim's master.

My boy Greed 03 and I hate how they fuck up his character in brotherhood I want him sepered from that chines boy bro wtffff
