Well hello to you too, cheesy anime movie opening with random music and accompanying montage.

 

[BassForever]

I know Alucard is the alpha. But he was clearly originally human in the Hellsing universe. I want to know HOW he became a vampire - the OVA doesn't really show how.

If we assume like most other things this series is in "continuity" with the Bram Stoker novel then I'd assume it's the same explanation here as it was there which IIRC was that Dracula was studying dark arts/magic and after death was resurrected as a vampire after his death due to drinking blood and casting magic on himself. Fox may be able to correct me it's been awhile since I read the book

 

[Imperial Bishop]

This scene needs more Armstrong.

 

[Line_HTX]

A city full of tables.

 

[Man God]

It doesnt really matter, it's standalone and ultimately inconsequential.

Al can only clap alchemy after he becomes the stone in FMA '03, so this is definitely Brotherhood.

They showed in episode 9, he is vlad the impaler, did a whole bunch of horrible shit in the name of god until people were finally sick of it and he was going to be executed, just before getting his head chopped off he licked blood on the stomp in a act of defying god because god didnt help him from being executed even though he did all these things in he name of god, doing this turned him into a demon.

Classic feelgood feeling

Feels good man

 

[Zonic]

Table City.

Why the hell is it called that. It's not like it even looks like a table or something.

 

[Cbajd5]

FUCK YO BABY

 

[B-Dubs]

No. It's based on the Brotherhood continuity. Didn't you notice Al transmuting by clapping? It takes place after the events of Rush Valley and before the Fifth Laboratory.

Wouldn't it take place after the Fifth Lab? Considering what Ed and Al have learned by this point?

 

[BassForever]

That's because Brotherhood isn't called Brotherhood in Japan either. It's just called Fullmetal Alchemist.

Oh that's news to me, thanks for letting me know

 

[Imperial Bishop]

REKT

 

[zedreamcast]

No. It's based on the Brotherhood continuity. Didn't you notice Al transmuting by clapping? It takes place after the events of Rush Valley and before the Fifth Laboratory.

I thought he did that in the original too. But then again I only watched like 4 episodes of the original.

 

[Crocodile]

This insert song sucks

How did the officers know? Also lol the train spies know Parkopur. So much animation budget to burn

A city of tables?

Table City is a silly name.

I know a Code Geass character who would love to live there

 

[Mik317]

BUDGET POWERS ACTIVATE

 

[Line_HTX]

He doesn't look so good.

 

[Zonic]

Is it just me, or does this series like having fights happen on trains.

Also WOLFMAN!!

 

[Ultratech]

Well, that was kinda creepy.

 

[BassForever]

I know a Code Geass character who would love to live there

Oh my

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Gentleman werewolf!

 

[Imperial Bishop]

The werewolves from Hellsing invaded FMA!

 

[Schadenfreude]

So wait, is this really a werewolf movie?

 

[Professor Lich]

Vampires and Werewolves, what is this, Twilight?

 

[Man God]

Night of Werewolfs

 

[B.K.]

Wouldn't it take place after the Fifth Lab? Considering what Ed and Al have learned by this point?

It's been a long time since I watched Milos, but I thought

Spoiler

they were still interested in getting the Philosopher's Stone in it.

 

[Raxus]

Sabrewolf ULTRAAAAA COMBOOOOOO!

 

[Regiruler]

Two wolfmen in one night.

 

[grandjedi6]

No. It's based on the Brotherhood continuity. Didn't you notice Al transmuting by clapping? It takes place after the events of Rush Valley and before the Fifth Laboratory.

and yet Al's clap transmuting means it takes place post-Greed!

Spoiler

It doesn't fit in anywhere

 

[daveo42]

Toonami needs some silver bullets. We got wolfmen everywhere.

 

[Line_HTX]

Tekken 7 needs more KI hit sparks.

 

[Ultratech]

Vampires and Werewolves, what is this, Twilight?

Psh, I don't see any sparkly vampires here.

 

[Cbajd5]

quit questioning his expertise

 

[Professor Lich]

Psh, I don't see any sparkly vampires here.

Oh yeah, thank goodness.

 

[BassForever]

Milos takes place in the continuity the same way 90% of the DBZ movies take place, IE in a magical limbo part of the time line which just pulls characters and powers from whenever they want for the sake of their movie original plot.

 

[Man God]

Psh, I don't see any sparkly vampires here.

Alucard was fairly sparkly

 

[Raxus]

Uh oh. Epiduo ad.

You put this evil on us, Soulflarz!

 

[Imperial Bishop]

EPIDUOOOOO

 

[daveo42]

The middle of Table City reminds me of this:

Spoiler

The Tower of Babel from Nadia: Secret of the Blue Water.

 

[B-Dubs]

It's been a long time since I watched Milos, but I thought

Spoiler

they were still interested in getting the Philosopher's Stone in it.

No no, you're mis-remembering. They already know by this point, this is after Fifth Lab and before

Spoiler

Ed meets his dad

.

Pretty much. This is sort of like One Piece Movie 3, which takes place in a mythical part of the series where the crew has Chopper but doesn't have either Vivi or Robin.

 

[BassForever]

It's been awhile since I took a 5 hour energy during toonami, dunno why I stopped this is helping me stay awake a lot

 

[Crocodile]

I saw all that. We are to assume saying "fuck you God" is enough to turn him into a vampire. Ok I guess but that feels weak to me :/

 

[Imperial Bishop]

I know a Code Geass character who would love to live there

That's nasty, bruh. lol

 

[Man God]

Will SAB make a Major Franky joke or a Major Makoto Kusanagi joke? Find out at 6am!

 

[Zonic]

Door had a face. Huh.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Oh my god. FMA right now and then more FMA later. It's a FMArathon.

 

[BassForever]

I saw all that. We are to assume saying "fuck you God" is enough to turn him into a vampire. Ok I guess but that feels weak to me :/

It's also from the novel as well, he was already researching the dark arts, the spells he cast upon himself + drinking blood + dying + rejected by god = vampire

 

[Raxus]

Suddenly Batmen.

 

[Grexeno]

I call bullshit on people not confusing Al for the Fullmetal Alchemist.

 

[daveo42]

Chimera everywhere.
