Get in the fucking boat, Nadia.

>>155670355
She's not that bad if you ignore the non-Anno episodes. In fact, considering her childhood it's perfectly understandable why she is the way she is and the development of her relationship with Jean is cute as fuck.

But yeah, the series as a whole would shoot to GOAT-tier if they remastered it and dropped everything from episode 23 to 34 aside from the discovery of the Red Noah by turning the whole island arc in just one or two episodes and completely dropping Africa.

>the intentionally shitty musical episode right before the finale starts

Among an almost endless amount of other retarded plots like a mushroom trip that invalidates genuine relationship development and even Marie being hit by the jerkass stick for an episode and torturing King for no reason.

No definitely not, but apparently this show airing on NHK is what created a lot of anime Otakus.
It's actually where the whole thing about NHK and title of "Welcome to The NHK" came from. Satou realizing the NHK was mass producing otaku and hikikomoris from childhood through airing such a fun show or something like that.

>>155677556
Eh you really didn't have to skip it, the episodes weren't of the best quality in the slightest but they were certainly funny. And Nadia being cute and loving and feminine with Jean, even if it was only for a little while, is something I'm glad I didn't miss.
But whatever you already skipped it, and I guess it really doesn't matter.

She's a completely irrational bitch the entire series that only operates on whatever hint of emotion she has at the time and pretty much never any actual thought. If you managed to put up with everything before then, that really shouldn't bother you at this point I think.

She's unbalanced.

>>155678458
The thing is that she has clear development throughout the first 22 episodes. She's still bitchy as they go on, but only when Jean says something stupid and/or innocently insensitive than all the time, and even starts to put up with people on the Nautilus eating meat and fish. Then you get to the filler episodes and her character completely deteriorates until she's a lot worse than even her early episodes self. When she falls for the African prince, even the other characters can't help calling her a cunt towards Jean.

So yeah, I didn't like the Africa Arc at the time, but I ultimately think it gave me a better experience.

When I picked up this show, I had no idea that it was going to end with fucking spaceships dueling it out in Paris and crashing into the Eiffel Tower. It's absolutely amazing how much this show escalated in scale and awesomeness from the ragtag adventure it started off as. Reminds me of TTGL, and I'm sure that show got a bit of inspiration from this.

How come the backstory and the Blue Water itself was very similar to Fullmetal Alchemist but try as hard as I search I can't find anything online that has made the connection.

Okay it's not a 1:1 comparison of course so don't get on my case about that.
But they both have main characters whose fathers are gone, and then their father comes back and their father is actually from a race of super advanced ancient people who brought technology to the humans. And the main antagonist is also from the ancient civilization who their father has a personal history with of them being friends. And also the main antagonist is the one that destroyed the ancient civilization.

But the main thing is the function of both the Philosophers Stone and the Blue Water (which is called the philosopher's stone in the anime too), in that they're both gems capable of performing healing miracles and other things, and are powered by and essentially holding devices for the souls of the people from the ancient civilization. Yeah this part was eerily similar and I couldn't find anything having to do with philosophers stones that had this concept before, so I don't think they both draw from something previous. Oh yeah sorry if you got spoiled on either series.

Nadia was extremely popular in Japan for many years.
It's very likely that Arakawa was inspired by it when writing FMA.
And the Philosopher's Stone in a concept from ancient alchemy that was believed to be the key to transmuting base metals into gold. As well as whatever other mystical shit they wanted it to do, like being the key to eternal youth.
And since orichalcum is associated with ancient philosophers, like the Philosopher's stone, the two often get conflated in fantastical settings. Slayers includes Philosopher's Stones that are closely associated with orichalcum.
