There are fights in FMA in both of the anime and the manga that are fluid, frantic, and dramatic as all hell.
And then there are the fights where Roy Mustang is pissed and he snaps fire on somebody for five minutes straight.
And I them both equally.
never really thought about it but fuck roy has a lot or restraint. like its lampshaded on the promise day when he goes out of his way to only give minor injuries to incapacitate but thinking about how he destroyed a near immortal homonculus… just fuck
