adventuresofcomicbookgirl:ishvalan:if scar’s arc isn’t your fave get out of my faceScar’s arc just did such a great job embodying so many things I LOVE IN MY FICTIONSIBLINGS FAMILY JUSTIFIED ANGERDOING BAD THINGSBUT THEN HE REALIZING HEY YES MY ANGER IS JUSTIFIED AND I OWN ITBUT I SHOULD USE IT TO CHANGE THINGS RATHER THAN DESTROY ITAND I’M JUST CREATING MORE JUSTIFIED ANGER BY TAKING LIFE, MORE PAINI DON’T FORGIVE ANYONE BUT I GOTTA USE WHAT I’VE GOT BETTERIt circumvented so many common cliches a lot of the bullshit that plagues thing kind of “angry persecuted minority” type character “anger is bad! forgiveness is good!” It was just like “nope, that’s wrong Anger’s okay but don’t make your anger futile and endlessly destructive”. the fact that Scar was able to back away from what was destroying him and such a big part of that was what his brother and mentor people of his own culture taught him -that was the best part. The fact his culture was given so much importance and he even bought back all the refugees to help him saved everyone from being the usual “saved by the majority” bullshit.i just really agree i really like Scar’s huge arc and that his anger was given so much respect and that he ends up helping rebuild his people in the end. It seriously is one of the best things about fullmetal alchemist. -- source link
