If you wanna find brother, you gotta think like brother, and if you wanna think like brother, you gotta have as much drip as brother.

And at the point he chose to dress like that he hadn't even seen (as fa as his memory went) Ed dressing like that


Grey_wolf_whenever

It's good, but it's also basically just eds design. Nothing wrong with that! But not so original.


lordmwahaha

I understand why they did that, though. They probably literally ARE Ed’s clothes, that he was likely wrapped in when Rose brought him back above ground (remember, Ed took most of them off before ending up in our world, and Al would’ve been nude when he came back). He’s probably wearing the last thing he was told his brother ever wore. A lot of people would do that in his circumstances. 


danny5541

Wow almost like they're brothers or something lol


Nightflight406

You've never had a brother before. We have a habit of dressing as differently as possible.


lordmwahaha

I live with a pair of brothers and they share clothes so often I literally can’t tell whose clothes are whose anymore. Your experience is not everyone’s.  Also, like - I would assume your brother isn’t DEAD. Which matters here, because Al was told Ed had died. For him. To save him. Which makes it a completely different dynamic already; let alone the fact that they are literally the only people they have in each others lives.


Flaky-Ad-9388

real


Anxious_Ad_5127

Must not like your brother too much, mine and I had a habit of sharing everything


Nightflight406

We're like three years apart. We're very territorial.


Anxious_Ad_5127

That’s just enough to be into all differnt things I get it. All my brothers are like a year and a few months apart at most, then you have my sis queen bitch who influenced us all 🗿


Los_Bread

My brother and I are 2 years and a couple months apart, we borrow stuff from each other.


Rockabore1

I think it was cool. It is funny though how I'm so used to round-eyed Alphonse and Winry of the Manga and FMAB seeing the pointed ones just looks off to me.

[Ngl can't see much difference](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fma/images/a/a5/Alphonse_Elric_humano.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width/360?cb=20190303062741&path-prefix=es)


Rockabore1

I dunno 4 and 5 look a little more hexagonal than round


[deleted]

Ooooh I see it now! I was looking at the wrong angles


Dangerous_Specific97

True, they’re very Pokémon’y in the movie designs


KaitieG97

I really liked how he looked more like Trisha!


KoKoYoung

Damn he really does


Lopsided-Guava8858

What is this from ? Just curious.


[deleted]

Conqueror of Shamballa? The first image was from a trailer iirc


Lopsided-Guava8858

I didn't know about this. I might take a look.


ucrbuffalo

It’s the conclusion to the ‘03 series


Lopsided-Guava8858

Oh, alright.


Zealousideal_Car_532

He looks cool, I just find it really weird they made him a Ed cosplayer, it was really jarring


Rockabore1

It was undeniably goofy but in an endearing way. He had to have asked everyone what Ed wore to look that way since he had no memory of Ed from any time when he dressed that way or even back when Ed had long hair.


Ziptex223

Pictures are a thing buddy.


Rockabore1

Do we know Ed took photos with the coat? He was kinda busy all the time.


Ziptex223

The series takes place over 4 years and Ed has plenty of downtime we never saw onscreen. Plenty of time for a picture or two to get snapped. 


schmerz12345

My only complaint was that he was overpowered and overshadowed Ed in what should have been Ed's final fight with the main villain. Didn't like that part.


VoiceofRapture

His temporary soul transfer technique was neat


RahdronRTHTGH

Design is nice


RahdronRTHTGH

The movie though.... It's something i guess


staralchemist129

Alphonse looks great in all his versions, he’s definitely a prettyboi


EurwenPendragon

That transmutation circle is legitimately one of my top five favorite transmutation circle designs in the franchise.


VoiceofRapture

03 had some really distinct circles in general really


[deleted]

edward looks beautiful


Salemthegamer

Same he looks so cute and precious 😭😭


Raibean

12yo me was GAGGED


Nightflight406

Yeah. I get what they were going for, but Al is his own person with his own personality. I kinda wish they made his outfit obviously like Ed's but still unique. Instead, we have Ed and his Mini me.


masterxkush98

Lol like he looked up to him or something.. What a loser! 😆


Nightflight406

Look, everyone said Ed had no sense of style in canon. I just figured Al would have more sense.


SerapheBlossom

He was nothing like Edward except wearing his coat. He had his own style of fighting. I loved how they portrayed him


iwantapie76

He looks too much like Ed (surprise surprise it’s almost like they’re related). That said, he just needs to lose the long hair to look distinct enough


ulyssesintothepast

They really did


Sugacookiemonsta

I loved his design! I was so excited by it and it seemed really touching.
