Talk:Episode 30: The Ishvalan War of Extermination (2009 series)

Need help with the notes. I want to put there a sentence about the omitted Kimblee scenes, but I can't come up with a good and short one. I've been bothered by the fact that FMAB never reveals that Kimblee was unofficialy ordered to kill Winry's parents. But this makes sense since neither Riza nor Knox nor Marcoh who are narrating knew about these events; I came up with something like: 'In the corresponding manga chapters, it is revealed that Kimblee was unofficially ordered to kill Winry's parents, while the episode has this event omitted along with most of Kimblee's appearences' (<-- which are considerably long, btw).

Hm. It is rather troubling that such an interesting fact was left out. If only they'd added a few more episodes to the series, they could have included every little detail and there wouldn't be this mad race to the end like there is now. As far as shortening the note, I think something like "The events surrounding Solf Kimblee's orders to assassinate the Rockbells, as well as his theft of the Philosopher's Stone and other appearances, are not depicted in this episode" would be fine. If it's important enough, it doesn't have to be particularly short just as long as it touches on the important points you want to get across as concisely and directly as possible. People who wish to know more about the omitted scenes will be able to read about them when the manga chapter synopses go up or, better yet, they can read the manga chapter.

Right, and the theft of the PS was actually moved to episode 31. Kiadony 18:05, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

The suggestion of what to write was good to me, so I just added it, with a bit more information. See what you all think.Cornwiggle 20:28, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
