I just finished my 5th watch Brotherhood and decided to read the Manga volumes I have at home again.

I love how close of an adaptation the anime is but the things that are missing are even more interesting to me. Some early chapters were left out of Brotherhood (cause they had already adapted them in 03 and only stuck to the most important ones) and a few little moments are missing from Brotherhood too, like why the first branch of the library burnt down! I  always just accepted that as a coincidence. 

I as a Royai-Tattoo-Haver am of course also very happy about the few bits of Roy and Riza that didn't make it to Brotherhood AND since I'm reading in german I really get to enjoy some of the translation choices (Fuhrer Bradley is understandably not called that in german.).
