For those of us who have no idea what's going on with that poor dog.

Re: Context?

[(Anonymous)]

Lan Fan cut her arm off when it got damaged during a battle and tied it to the dog to mislead somebody who was following the blood trail.

She gets a badass prosthetic later.

wait wait wait- but uhh, isn't it badass? I didn't read/watched FMA, but that discription alone is badass, and if the woman in question not only lives through that (why mention fridging???), but also gets a prosthetics after, isn't she uhhh, "badass"???
I'm confused what the secret's OP is implying.

Re: NAYRT

[(Anonymous)]

I think she isn't badass, because she's a strong woman who lives to protect a man who isn't worth it. He isn't worth a single arm, either. That said, it isn't at all an example of "fridging."

Re: NAYRT

At least Ling puts in the work to BE worth it.

Re: Context?

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks! That seems... extreme.

Re: Context?

[(Anonymous)]

To be fair, the people chasing her and her group are not the type you want catching you, so it was pretty smart.

Re: Context?

[(Anonymous)]

And it was a completely fucked arm in a setting with badass prosthetics.

It was definitely smart.

Re: Context?

[(Anonymous)]

Exactly. Her arm was wrecked to begin with and they were sitting ducks as long as it kept bleeding and leaving a blood trail that could be traced by scent, so cutting it off, staunching the bleeding and then using the arm to make a fake trail was an honestly genius move.

Re: Context?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, that, uh, isn't fridging...so what is OPs issue??

Re: Context?

NAYRT

idk maybe they don't like people hyping up FMA???
Maybe people it a "feminist" manga/anime is getting annoying for them? Do people even do that?
I wouldn't call FMA "THE feminist anime", but it's a shounen manga written by a woman and it has some strong memorable female characters.

Re: Context?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, people do hype up FMA as a feminist shonen anime, sometimes THE feminist shonen anime and seem to think no other shonen has ever been written by a woman.

I'm someone who thinks FMA is overhyped about most things, including how feminist it is, but... this scene is not fridging. Like, even if it were in the most unfeminist anime ever, that's not what that word means. I don't even think it would count if she sacrificed her life and not just her arm, because an important part of fridging is the woman's lack of agency. I don't think fans would call it fridging if it happened in Naruto either, and if they did, they'd be wrong.

>>this scene is not fridging.
I agree 100%.
It's why I think OP is just tired of people hyping up FMA, because they're just grasping at straws with this. It's not fridging AT ALL.

I didn't know FMA was regarded as the feminist anime, but to be honest, I followed it 15+ years ago now (JESUS CHRIST), so the discourse over it probably changed a lot with the new generation.
