Plumbing depths of fangirlism I have never plumbed before

[drakyndra]

So, I just went and downloaded a program so I could watch a live stream of Japanese TV. Just so I could watch an episode of anime, live. Despite not speaking a word of Japanese.

Despite going to watch the same episode when it actually has subtitles.

And you know what? I really don't care. Because it was Fullmetal Alchemist, and it was AWESOME.

I mean yeah, I had no idea what the hell was going on plotwise, but there was pretty pretty scenery! And nifty music! And characters I love so much! And FMA manga characters!

And OMG I am so ridiculously in love with the opening titles it is insane. I need icons of that, like, yesterday. And for it to be on YouTube so I can watch it over and over again.

And the ending was adorable.

*flails helplessly in fannish glee*

ETA: New OP on YouTube! ILU Internets!

And the ending!

ETA: Oh god, I think I terrified fa11ing_away with my fangirly flailing when she got home.

Oh my gosh, it's just sunk in that it's finally here! What a gorgeous OP, too. I find it really cool that they're sticking a bit more to the original character designs from the manga, it gives it a slightly different feel to the first anime.

Blimey, this is so exciting. I'm going to have to wait for subs (because that's how I roll), but I'm going to wait for them with maximum excitement!

I've been hyped over this all day. But then, I specifically set yesterday aside to write that damned stupid essay, so it'd be out of the way before FMA arrived. And aside from one or two moments of QUALITY, it looked great (as far as I could tell on my little streaming window)

Fansubs should be only a few hours off. Official ones are later this week.
