The Meaning of Fullmetal Alchemist - An Edward Elric Character Analysis | FMA VS Brotherhood FINAL

It's the final part of my Fullmetal Alchemist VS Brotherhood series. That's right. It only took me four years.

'Kēdeia' refers specifically to spousal love and respect for the dead. The positive term 'kēdeia' thus indicates love for one's family, even through death." When I read this, I thought it was really cool - after all, if this is true, then Sloth would also be related to Ed and Al trying to bring their mom back to life, as that could be seen as a lack of respect for the dead. But, alas, I followed the sources cited on Wikipedia and I couldn't find something talking about this. I then followed up with one of my Patrons, Conrad, who I thought might be able to help me with this, and he reached out to a PhD friend of his who he thought might know something about these terms. Unfortunately, the PhD wasn't certain, and I'd already spent too much time trying to confirm this, so I had to stop looking. Even so, it was cool enough that I wanted to at least mention it in the video, but I also didn't want to give the sense that this is definitely true. As such, I decided to leave it in as a little throw-away, kinda joke section, and to put text leading you here, to this very paragraph your eyes glide over now. Anyway, thank you to the one person who cared to read this. Bless ya.

I loved this. While my preference for 2003 over Brotherhood still stands & will always remain, you've yet again pointed out why Brotherhood is justifiably good & even given me one new point to appreciate about Brotherhood that I had honestly not seen before--the contrast between Brotherhood Ed & Father. As you know, I became a patron years ago because of your FMA videos & I will be re-watching your FMA videos--both the old ones you've not as pleased by & the new ones--for years to come, but I'm also going to stay a patron for years to come as well as you have kept providing wonderful videos of literary criticism. I'm happy your channel has blown up in terms of viewers & I hope eventually your patreon will likewise follow.

Thank you! I'm happy you've enjoyed and watched these videos for so long, and thank you for all your support on here as well ^_^

I hope you'll go back to FMA content later in the future. It is my current obsession right now.

I think at some point I'll discuss it again. Maybe I'll talk about the video games or novels or something like that? It's hard to say for certain at this point, but yeah, I'm pretty much 100% I'll return to it at some point in the future, since I love the series so much.
