His later self is stated by Hohenheim to be much more stoic, composed, almost lifeless, and almost always looking bored, the reason being that he had supposedly purged himself of the seven vices (this "purging" seems to have been incomplete, since he acts in sinful manners that reflect the seven vices).įor the most part, he is menacing, dark, and foreboding, though he can have traces of humanity, as, during his first meeting with the Elric brothers and Ling Yao, Father shows a somewhat comical, lighter side to his personality, similar to that of Hohenheim, but almost immediately after switches back to his very serious demeanor. Why should I be punished for that? What's wrong with craving knowledge? What's wrong with seeking perfection?įather's original personality when he was known as the Dwarf in the Flask is more human-like and beautifully charismatic than when compared to his later self. I wanted this world's knowledge for my own. "Father" inherited much knowledge from the Eye, and, when it comes to amount, only those of the Eye and Truth exceed his knowledge. "Father" was created from the essence of the Eye (with some of Hohenheim's blood mixed in), and thus Father's shadowy actual form greatly resembles the Eye. One of his outward looks bears a striking resemblance to Van Hohenheim. Arrogant and self-righteous, he deems only power over and ownership of the world, "perfect goodness and being", and "divine order" worthy of his attention, and he seeked to become absolutely "superior" to the human race. He was the oldest Homunculus and the progenitor of the Homunculi, creating them directly or indirectly. The Dwarf in the Flask: Homunculus ( フラスコの中の小人 ( ホムンクルス ), Homunkurusu), referred to as " Father" (お父様, Otō-sama) by his "children", the other homunculi, is the main antagonist of the Fullmetal Alchemist manga and 2009 anime series. That would be an accurate summation of my feelings towards you humans. And that's the basic message of the original series.When you see an insect lying on the ground, do you stop to consider it a fool? The life of an insect is so beneath you that it would be a waste of your time to even consider judging it. This pulls a lot of different elements from the original series, and while it will never have the emotional through line granted by the extra time for development in the original series, the film's ending does have its intended effect of establish Edward as a good person who won't stoop to the lowest of the low in order to gain what he wants. When he enters the Gate once more, he sees Alphonse's frail body. Then he offers it to Ed (rather than Ling Yao) to restore he and Al's bodies. When Mustang kills Lust, he pulls her Philosopher's Stone out of her chest rather than destroying it. Then General Hakuro activates a machine in Lab 5 and releases an army of white, soulless alchemy beasts. When Edward discovers that human sacrifice is necessary for a Philosopher's stone, Tucker reappears to argue that he an Ed are the same, but he is killed by Lust (rather than by Scar as he is in the original series). Taking cues from different places in the manga, the film has Shou Tucker leading the final events of Lab 5. The live-action film comes to close in an original fashion. Warning! Major Spoilers For The Fullmetal Alchemist Film! The film's great looking CG helps emphasized how disfigured the new chimera is, and thus hits that much harder when it's not an animated or drawing of a person becoming a monster.
In the film, this happens in exactly the same fashion and is just as much of a bummer as it is in the original series. This one can talk, and when Edward introduces himself to it, it says "Play with me Edward!" Suddenly, Edward realizes that Tucker had transmuted his daughter and pet dog into a chimera, and has even done the same to his wife in the past. Later, he shows Edward a new chimera he's created. He's famous in the military for experimenting with talking chimeras and is stressed that his latest evaluation is coming up and he doesn't have anything to present. In the anime and manga series, there's a state alchemist named Shou Tucker who has a young daughter named Nina and a dog named Alexander. Of course, the live-action film also adapts the series' darkest moment. Warning Major Spoilers for Fullmetal Alchemist! How Does Tucker's Darkest Moment Compare?
