FMA actually takes place in Europe or a Europe-like setting. Most anime characters however are not European.

The effects and Al honestly don't look too bad, my one complaint is Ed though. The coat and hair do not work in real life.

He's pretty Caucasian looking as far as japs go and he's short just like the character. So it's just the problem of the hair, though i believe it's his real hair not a wig.

It wouldn't even be whitewashing in this case.

On a side note, Fullmetal Alchemist is overrated as fuck. Having read both FMA and Berserk, I don't see how anybody could think the former is better, but so many do.

For the most part they don't have the budget for it.

Its weird when white characters are Japanese and vice versa. Like they should probably be Europeans, but the characters in Death Note and GitS should be Japanese.

For the most part Jap movies are garbage, the industry died with Kurasawa.

This one's Nipwashed though.

They were white European in the manga and anime. At least they got Alphonse right, imagine how he'd look in an American film...
>>
>>81368081
Even if he did, so what?
>>
>>81368081
The issue is more about Asians in the West wanting to feel fairly represented in significant films. How it relates to the actual character wasn't much of a consideration, especially after how different the story is in the adaptation.
>>
I think Edward is a good cast, if it were a Hollywood production we'd get a white actor be a tall guy in his 20s or straight up look like someone from an anime convention cosplay

>>81368081
The problem is that they didn't a continuation of an existing story, they are making something that had everything already established. Thus, it should look like what ever was established. Meaning a body with Caucasoid features more than Asian features.

She is a Japanese girl that got a white looking android body.
The other full body android you see in the movie is a fucking blue eyed blonde with pink nipples, its an east Asian social commentary that's beyond the knowledge of American SJW

What are you trying to say?

>>81368529
>Why are japanese movies so fucking awful?
They're not.
>>
>>81368471
>its an east Asian social commentary
lol no.

The entire film is about the philosophical implications of the human form being heavily interspersed with technology and machinery. The Major plays a character that's so alienated from her physical form, it's hard to decide whether she's a human with an android body, or an android with a human brain. This only gets more difficult at the end, with the merging of consciousnesses and changing form to something almost metaphysical.

Having an East Asian social commentary would just cheapen and isolate the film's philosophy, when it's meant to be a global discussion.

To be honest Japan doesn't have western actors who can into Japanese, I think no country has western actors who can into Japanese so they have to use whatever they got.

Ok? And?
>>
>>81368642
There's just no basis for your claim. Her nationality is barely relevant and you would struggle to tell they're in East Asia at all with most scenes.
>>
>>81366936
FMA is concise, has a clear begining, middle and ending and doesn't drag to long in the slightless. That's pretty fucking rare in manga and a blessing.
>>
>>81368706
>you would struggle to tell they're in East Asia at all with most scenes.
Maybe if you are 2 digit IQ american mongrel.
>>
>>81368726
Have you actually seen a picture of Japan?

The only way to tell they're in an Asian country at all is the kanji on the market signs. That's pretty much it.
>>
>>81368818
The city in GitS is Hong Kong standing in for a fictional Japanese city.

As far as real Japan goes there's a lot of things that identify it as Japan even without any signs.
>>
>>81368818
I dont think you actually watched the movie.
>>
>>81368710

That doesn't really matter. A mediocre manga can have a beginning, middle and ending. That's nothing. Berserk is amazing; Fullmetal Alchemist is okay.

The ending of Fullmetal Alchemist is terrible, by the way. It's so fucking corny I couldn't believe it. FMA is tied with Gantz as the two most disappointing manga endings I have ever read.

You are an idiot if you think they're at all comparable and sounds more like you're just an edgy tryhard bitching about things working out instead of a down ending.
