Hm! I'm watching FMA: Brotherhood now and I'm not really aware of any weaknesses in exposition? Like, IDK if I'm supposed to know something the creators assumed people would generally know.

Some help? (I'm at Episode 10 of FMA: Brotherhood so please be careful with spoilers)

It's mostly just the first episode that's weak IMHO, and it seems completely unnecessary/ like they went back & thought they had to make an intro episode for people who *didn't* know the first series or the manga.

I think the original series really emphasized how hard the search for the stone was, how long it took, how many false leads they came across and their willingness to help people regardless. Lots of character building stuff (and tragedy).

Here, once I put together a list of how the original series connected to Brotherhood just for this reason.


Episodes with continuity into Brotherhood. (I recommend watching 1-13 before watching FMA:B)

1-3 (repeated in FMA:B eps. 2&3)
4 (original but no discontinuity)
5-6 (explores Alchemy Exam that only has a small mention in FMA:B, slightly different introduction/timeline for Shou Tucker, different resolution for Shou Tucker)
8 (FMA:B carries character from this story)
9 (story not in FMA:B but is mentioned later on, carries a character from this story)
10 (original but no discontinuity)
11 (original but no discontinuity)
12 (original but no discontinuity)
13 (not in FMA:B, no discontinuity, character episode)

this is really where the story starts to go in a different direction

14-16 (discontinuity)
17 (?)
18 (library search follows plot, Scar story discontinuity)
19 (repeated in FMA: B ep.7 Hidden Truths)
20 (repeated in FMA:B ep.8)
21 (discontinuity, Greed's and chimera friends introduction story could crossover)
22 (no continuity)
23 (repeated in FMA:B ep.9, minor discontinuity)
24-25 (no continuity)
26 (alternative continuity to FMA:B ep.11)
27-28 (discontinuous present day, accurate flashbacks, repeated in FMA:B ep. 12)
29-34 (no continuity, Al and Greed story in FMA:B ep.13)
35 (original)
36 (no continuity)
37 (slight discontinuity [winry, archer scenes] mostly a character study for Mustang and his soldiers) recommend watching, it's funny
38-40 (no continuity) marta's flashbacks about orders in the war on ishbal could crossover
