The most anticipated return of Fullmetal Alchemist anime to television, in the form of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, had desperately failed on the ratings in just half way through the series. The original, but different from the manga, series had an average of 6% throughout the whole series of 50 episodes while the remake is just on 3.3% and still trailing down.


According to some rumors, they will put this to a new timeslot to see if it becomes favorable to them. But to some people, they said that they still doubt that they can rescue the show.

The last Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood episode that I have seen is Episode 7: The Hidden Truth. Up to this date, there are already 21 episodes shown. And to what I see, the episodes that I have sen are just replay of the first episodes of the original Fullmetal Alchemist series. This might be the reason of the loss of interest of viewers to watch this anime.

There might be a turn over of events once the series reach the episode in which it is different from the first series. This might or might not happen but let's see the outcome when that episode is aired.
