You talked about post-credit scenes while previous reactions, and there are quite a lot of them in the show. These are all the episodes with scenes after the credits: 6, 8, 28, 29, 30, 32, 33, 36, 40, 42, 43, 44, 46, 48, 49. Hope I didn't miss any. Besides, the endings of episodes 45, 54, 63, and 64 are different, so you should pay attention to them as well in the future:) I don't know if you're watching previews to the next episodes, but I don't really recommend to watch them as sometimes they contain kind of spoilers. About justification of Tucker's death - I think he was going to be killed anyway, I doubt he could somehow escape the death warrant after what he's done. The justification of him being killed by Scar specifically in the way Scar did it - that's the real question. Speaking of Tucker, there is another interesting detail about him. If I recall correctly, in the manga, every time a character dies (whether he's good or bad) the author drew them going to the heaven, except for Tucker, who was shown heading straight to hell. And jeah, as you have witnessed, this show can get really dark, sometimes when you don't expect it at all, but I think it also does a good job in balancing between dark and light-hearted moments, hope you will feel it too. Oh, and now you're in the beginning of the military storyline. One of my favorite themes (?) in this show, if not the favorite one, so well-written. Can't talk a lot about this, in case not to spoil anything:) But now you can kinda understand what was Roy talking about at the end of the previous episode (about their actions being not far from what Tucker did). I mean, the stories separately are completely different, but in the end pretty much every state alchemist, who participated in the Ishvalan war, is involved in taking innocent lives, fully acknowledging his actions, and Tucker is not so different, if you put it this way (as, I think, Roy did). And this comment is getting insanely long, so I will finish it here. Hope you're having a nice vacation:)

Thank you! I took note of all the end credit scene episodes, and I watch until the preview every episode, even though that obviously gets cut out of the video. I don't watch the previews since I know I will be watching the next episode anyways, and they tend to be pretty spoiler heavy. As for those details, that's interesting. I know Tucker is an extremely hated character (and I do get why), but I must say I don't quite understand why he appears to be so much worse (to even the mangaka!!) than some of these other characters in my eyes. I know Cornello was a really trope-y villian, but he probably presented more of a direct threat/harm to a greater number of people than Tucker. Granted, Tucker is a monster for what he did, but as you pointed out there seems to be a lot of wrong done in this world that is brushed under the rug by some ends-justifies-the-means reasoning that not only Tucker is guilty of. Human child experiments or genocide, not exactly worlds apart with how horrible they are. Definitely looking forward to how they decide to discuss this Ishvalan war. Anyways, I got home from Vacation yesterday, so now I am back on the grind. :)
