They both have their strengths and weaknesses, though from what I know about the manga/Brotherhood (haven’t read/seen it, but I know a lot of details thanks to TV Tropes), I think I prefer the first anime…
 
(Yes, I’m well aware I’m reviving a dead, year-old argument)

And thus neither of them gave a shit about Big Mac .

I want to stay here forever!!!!!!!

^ You’re talking as if I said I didn’t like the Manga (hell, it’s my favorite version). I simply said I find Brotherhood redundant in light of there already being a TV series.  
You like it, good for you. Move on.

/ That’s just stupid, Brotherhood is a faithful adaption meant to follow the Manga, that it’s whole and entire point.
 
Saying it unoriginal is down right retarded.

@Mayojar77 I never said the first Anime was flawless, there’s plenty of stuff I don’t like about it. I said Brotherhood was unnecessary, seeing as there was already an Anime adaptation, and I didn’t see any real reason to make another.  
Like I said, there are lots of Anime series that differ from their Manga of origin, and they can be enjoyable especially when they are unpredictable like that. Say what you want about the first anime, but at least they took risks with, it felt like they were trying to take a different approach in the story (hell, Arakawa seems to have liked the changes). Brotherhood felt like a marketing stunt, an unoriginal series for people who were too lazy to pick up the Manga and read it.

>Evilton thinking the first anime was better  
>First anime was too ‘Disney’ in spirit  
>Second anime kicked so much arse  
>Evilton’s argument is invalid.

You started it, EvilTon.

Good news, Apple Bloom, you’re gonna be a big pony.

And then they try to bring them back…
 

Please let’s not start this here.

Brotherhood is a million times better than the original anime, that’s why.

/ Honestly, fuck you.

^^ There’s always been Anime series that differ from the source material, I didn’t see any reason to make a new, more faithful adaptation.  
If I wanted to know what happened in the Manga, I would read the fucking Manga (which I did and recommend y’all to).

Necronomicon Exmortis.

@EvilTon  
>calling Brotherhood unnecessary.
 
Fuck you. I liked seeing the later manga chapters adapted.

V Then I looked the tumblr page, and was more or less right. Yeehaa.

FullPony Alchemist, I’m calling it.

Pet Cemetary

Hmmm… I’m genuinely curious as to how these two universes could actually come together. Continue.

@64 And then years from now, we’ll get a new, faithful but unnecessary, adaptation of their story.

And then they used apples to do it.  
And then they fail, horribly.  
And then Apple Bloom gets fused to the family tractor and Applejack gets steampunk prosthetics.  
And then their father was immortal or something, I dunno.  
And then things get messy with the continuity.

Suddenly Twilight used Black magic.
