Like, generic sweet little girl who meets a grotesque fate, just didn't feel authentic to me.

That's it exactly for me. It was the show slapping you upside the head and going, "FEEL SAD NOW, DAMMIT!" And the amount of guilt the boys carried about it was absurd. It's like, of all the crap that has gone down in their lives before and since, why is that the thing they continue to call on all the way to the end of the series?

What happened to Nina was a special kind of horrible fucked up and the Elrics don't have the meta knowledge to go "but she was just a generic sweet little girl so we don't have to dwell on it too much." See how it still affects so much of the fandom and new viewers/readers; I doubt it has anything to do with them having deeply loved Nina as a character.

I get their horror at it. It's the guilt, and the using her as a symbol of all that is wrong with the world that bothers me.
