This really can't be true... can it? If it is, I'll honestly feel so let down. Why did they change the entire cast (other than Ed, Al and Hughes)?
Since I'm stubborn, I'll just stick to the belief that someone in 2ch made a mistake. I don't think I'm going to watch this second season even though it's one of my favourite shows. |

I always find it hilarious when ANN reports on official announcements in the future tense.

Wow... Ed and Al, Armstrong, Hughes and Bradley got recast, but Ueda Yuji, who played Kimblee in the original series, is Havoc this time? It's like they kept who they could in the same roles, switched some people around, and filled in the rest with different actors. I would love to hear the reasoning, if anything particular, behind the partial recasting of original voices, if it's something other than availability.

a Remake and it kinda makes sense to change the VA's, especially if the director/creator felt the voices didn't fit the characters based on the first series. And it helps make the series feel slightly different. |

Wow, I didn't expect them to change you know, even ROY and RIZA. Winry's VA is a new VA (started in 2006), so I've never heard of her.
Miki Shinichirou is known for Takumi in Initial D. Orikasa Fumiko is Rukia in Bleach. Sparkleman and Hughes get to keep the same voices, yay! Ueda Yuuji was Kimbley in the last Hagaren anime. Hamada Kenji is Kirifuda Shouri in Duel Master. (Never seen it, lol) Naduka Kaori is Nunnally in Code Geass. (I WANT SAIGA MITSUKI ;___; They better give Saiga Mitsuki a better role in FMA if she's not dubbing Maria Ross!) Miyake Kenta is Corporal Randel Oland in Pumpkin Scissors (never heard of). Inoue Kikuko is Kazami Mizuho in Onegai Teacher. Shiratori Tetsu was Kain Fuery in the last Hagaren anime. Takayama Minami is famous for Edogawa Conan in Detective Conan. She is also the singer of Two-Mix. I'm currently having difficulty picturing Conan and Envy together...  ;
Yoshino Hiroyuki is Kai in BLOOD+. Yamadera Kouichi is Kurama from Mashin Eiyuuden Wataru *shot, no one would know the series *... or better known as Togusa in Ghost in the Shell? Who is Issac? Wiki says it's someone in the Ishbal war. Someone enlighten me.

ugh just ugh
I just hope that Funimation brings back the dub cast. Though I may not watch this series now, not because of the VAs but because it still doesn't say whether its going to be based off of the manga or not. Who the hell is Isaac I just checked the only time Isaac appears in the manga is when an Isaac squad has lost contact. That's it Their is no way in hell this character is from the manga This is going to suck Last edited by Charred Knight on Fri Mar 06, 2009 9:00 am; edited 1 time in total |

I'm so dissapointed...I honestly don't know if I'll watch it, even if I was exicited about it. I loved the original Japanese cast, I can't believe so many actors were left out of the remake... Espicially the actor who played Roy, he did an amazing job as him..they cast a much younger actor this time which makes no sense... He played Roy in the OAVs and the games when the series ended, why would they change him now... it really sucks... I thought Japan always kept the same voice actors for roles (Unlike in US and Canadian dubbing) this is really a HUGE let down.
Just saw the characters...who the hell is Isaac??? |

if ur not leaving the anime because of the cast,,then wy do u want funimation to get the same cast as bfore... and by the looks of ,,it looks like people didn't like fma as an anime but rather liked the cast....if that is the case ,,then i advice u people to go watch animes which have the guys who did the voice acting for fma characters in the first anime...that would really filter the FMA anime fans from the FMA cast fans.... |

I may not watch it if its just a new Fullmetal Alchemist series not really based off of the manga.
From what it looks like Square Enix just ordered that a Fullmetal Alchemist anime be made without ordering that it be based off of the manga. So what where probably going to get AT BEST is the same thing as the first FMA anime series similar first half's completely different second halfs. I am begenning to suspect that's why we haven't seen any info on wether or not this is actually based off of the manga, unlike say Hellsing Ultimate where it was stated right off the bat that it would truer to the original Hellsing. I don't understand why the hell they would release the name of some character named Isaac instead of say Dr. Marcoh.

Well this was bound to happen. Not everyone who worked on the old series would be available to work on the new one, or would necessarliy want to, so they had to do what they could. As long as the two main players are the same I'm good with everything else.
