What anime could actually be successfully adapted by Hollywood?

Too long, unless you make it a trilogy.

You want to go after short series that can be compacted into one movie like Trigun or Bebop.

As someone who never read the manga, I think the original FMA anime is substantially better than Brotherhood.

When I said that in /a/, they lost their fucking minds.

I just don't get it. Brotherhood plays out like a standard (read: generic) anime, with fanservice and all.

Agreed. FMA would have to be long-term. Bebop would be perfect as either a one-off based on the material, or (like the anime movie) simply one bounty among many implied others within the continuity.

For me I think it's just that Brotherhood follows the manga, which makes much more sense re: Father's plot, the homunculi, why alchemy works, etc. than the first anime.

>which makes much more sense

I think the opposite, though I haven't watched it in some time. I remember cringing several times, whereas the original anime was a fucking tear-jerker that gut punched me like 5+ times, not to mention the movie.

The dialogue in Brotherhood was also much, much worse. But I guess that's a symptom of it probably being taken straight from the manga.

Not him but while I can agree that the dialogue and general feel of the manga and Brotherhood was a lot more generic I felt like the actual narrative played out a lot better. I think if it held the same tone and pacing the 03 anime did, Brotherhood would've been a lot better than 03 ended up being. Some of the stuff past Greed's death was absolutely retarded.

hollywood should stop trying to make anime adaptations.
It doesn't work. Hollywood movies and japanese anime are too inherently different for it to translate well. It's jarring and weird.

None you dumb fucking /v/eddit child

I think you hit the nail on the head.

Thanks, shit's been bothering me for years whenever I think back on FMA.

The 03 anime was genuinely heartwrenching, and I don't typically even enjoy most anime.

I'm down with a FMA series. 3 to 5 films.
Start the ages out around 16 and 14 and have the characters age 5 yrs over the course of the films.

Killing Scar was its biggest misstep. Also the crazy doctor with the daughter dog should have been killed like in the manga.
