Woah, everyone. I am...kind of blown away by all the love this has received in just the first day. It's all pretty insane to me, seriously. I'm gonna try my best to reply to as many comments as I can, but it's all a little overwhelming (in a good way!!) so I apologize if I miss some people. But trust me, I have read your comments and every single one has brought the biggest smile to my face. Thank you to everyone who waited patiently while I was working to finish this project up, and thank you to those of you who made the effort to come from different platforms like tiktok or twitter just to see the final product. Royai is such a fantastic relationship, and I wanted to extend their happy ending to beyond where the manga/brotherhood left off. It's very endearing to see so many people enjoyed that. I can't say much else other than thank you so much.
i like the idea that after Havoc gets un-paralyzed from the waist down with the philosopher stone he still needs to use crutches to get used to walking again
The views are CRIMINALLY low on this. This is incredible!!! I love the way they look at each other… feels just like the show and that much more. And I just love the black and white contrast so much. This was beautifully done.
This is SO sweet! I was trying so hard to get their expressions right when looking at one another, and I'm glad to see that seemed to come across right! Also, the black and white scheme was the first thing I thought of when I started making the thumbnails to this animatic!
I AM??? IN ABSOLUTE LOVE?????? THE LINES ARE SO CLEAN AND THE ANIMATION SO SMOOTH AND!!! GOSH THE WAY YOU MANAGED TO CAPTURE THEIR RELATIONSHIP!!!!!!!! Love looking at all the suttle ways they express their love by just staying by each other's side through all.... I hold them dearly with both of my hands this is beautiful!!
Thank you!!! I'm glad the subtlty was shown well! Royai doesn't seem like the type of couple to express their love in massive gestures or showers of kisses, haha

Why is this so so so perfect ? My eyes are literally wet just from watching this, I have grown so soft lately because of Royai 😭 You made an absolute masterpiece 🤍
the way i cried cause i had watched this anime liek three yrs ago and i remembered roy going blind cause he was forced to do human transmutation and riza then helpin him fight, but i DID NOT REMEMBER THEM ACTUALLY KILLING RIZA TO MAKE HIM DO IT OMG MY HEART IS SHATTERING RN also riza bein teh first person roy looks at after having regained his vision... heartbreakingly beautiful
THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE NOSTALGIA ROLLERCOASTER 😭😭💔 You conveyed their dynamic so well, and animated it neatly!! This is so clean and well thought-out. Growing up, royai brought me comfort the most on the internet, and animations like these are why. Good job!!!!!!!! Absolute banger!
I know I already wrote a freaking novel in your tumblr tags, but LISTEN I CAN NOT SHUT UP ABOUT HOW BRILLIANT THIS ANIMATIC IS. The timing for the frames, the art style, the expressions of the characters and all the subtle details you put through the whole video - I can not stress enough about how much I love it. Thank you for creating it and sharing with the world, you are amazing:) PS: side note - at first I wasn't sure how I feel about this song in particular, because, while Mitski indeed has good lyrics, it's not the type of music I usually listen to, but! This animatic might as well be a turning point for me, ahah, or at least this particular song definitely grew on me a lot, so thank you for that as well:) maybe I'll need to check out more of Mitski songs in the future...
You've already heard me thank you like 5 million times, but I'm gonna do it again!! Your comments warmed my heart so much, especially with how much detail you went into about your favorite parts
@@Kittick_Art Awwww, you're always welcome!! You deserve to be ̶s̶m̶o̶t̶h̶e̶r̶e̶d̶ showered with praises for a work like that, seriously, and some of these shots are going to live rent free in my head for a while for sure:)
This video is SO underrated. it could have 200 million likes and I would still think it is underrated. It's incredible. Its breathtaking. its stunning. its my new obsession. I've it for five hours now and I can't look away. Please keep up the incredible work.
omgomgomg this is- wow! why am I only seeing this now?? this is perfection! your mind for putting this together- you should get an Oscar or Noble prize
Hello! For some reason, this video showed up on my recommendations today. I thought, oh TH-cam is serving me another Royai FMV from 10+ years ago again, as it sometimes do. Imagine my shock when I realized this was made last year. And how come am I only seeing it now in 2024? This is great!
I have comeback and forth just to watch this animatic since last year. The opening scene is fantastic and the art is so pretty. As for the choice of music, this song describes them beautifully. I luv them so muchhhhhhh, thank you for making this wonderful animatic :33333
I have never watched a single second of FMAB and this moved me to tears. Just…. Wow. I’m not early by any means but this is one of the most engaging animatics I’ve ever seen. The song choice?? The expressions?? Well done!
I remember seeing the start of this when I was still reading the manga and now the first thing I did after I finished reading the manga today was watch this. In all it's just a great animatic, I love your artstyle and how you portrayed these two's relationship.
This was fantastic in every possible way! I absolutely love your style and the moments you chose to showcase for each lyric was perfect. Getting to see the aftermath and healing following the Promised Day was just so touching, especially the moment Roy and Riza locked eyes and she lit up, just, no notes, you did amazing
Did I just discovered a hidden gem?? The animation made me tear up that was so amazing the details and face expression just wow 😭💗 you deserve much more recognition!!
i love how you encapsulated the depth of their relationship in such a short video and your art style is adorable! let's just all agree that royai are, in every way except legally on paper, married.
24 hours and i already see this video like 20 times because the animation is so smoth and beautiful and because song its so beautiful and weird and sad at the same time
THIS IS SO GOOOOODDDDDD, AUUUAGHH, im in love with this i LOVE the shot on 'with my eyes with my body with me' and the way its almost like spliced in half
Oh my god how have I not seen this until now, it's literally so good!! Not only do I not see FMAB animatics/PMVs very often (if at all), I just can't get over how well your style works with the show! I'm so glad yt recommended this to me tonight! Also I love how you continued their story a bit after the end of the show/manga its so adorable and the song choice fit so well too. I can totally imagine Riza singing this.
I am like freaking out rn!! Aaaaaa! The subtle facial / emotional animations were so smooth, like god. I love how the emotional subtleties really match their vibes as a couple. And the last scene 😭😭😭
He obviously got rid of it...otherwise the lyrics would have been 'Me and my husband, we're not doin' better. It used to be just him and me together....but he bet all he had on that stupid 'stache! The rest of this lifetime we're not staying together'
Goshh I just finished my rewatch of the series, it was my first anime I watched in full and is still my favoutite to this day. Glad to see Hawkeye getting the love she deserves!!!
Fun fact: The mangaka stated the main reason Roy hasn't married Riza (yet) is the Amestrian military rule against couples being in the same unit. It will be a different case when he becomes the future Fuhrer...
Omg this is SO BEAUTIFUL!!!! THE SCENES THE ART STYLE EVERYTHING IS STUNNING AND MATCHES SO WELL WITH THE SONG!!!!! thanks for creating this gorgeous animation 💕✨💕✨💕✨
im not the type of person that lefts comments on videos but i absolutly have to tell you that YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW THIS CHANGED MY LIFE, I TOTALLY LOVE THIS!!! ITS AMAZING i love everything, but the facial expressions omg those are immaculated love this so muuuuch
I commented on twitter but gonna leave a quick one here too to help out lol but also because Im still absolutely in shock about how incredible this is... so many years since fma finished and bless you for gifting us with the highest possible quality of art. I was so tired from my day but I cant stop the smile that showed up in my face ever since I watched this. truly inspiring❤️
this is so sweet!! I came into the FMAB fandom EXTREMELY late, so I was worried I'd already missed the train, but it's so nice to know there are other people just like me who still enjoy watching the show and seeing fanart for it. Thank you!!
Woah, everyone. I am...kind of blown away by all the love this has received in just the first day. It's all pretty insane to me, seriously. I'm gonna try my best to reply to as many comments as I can, but it's all a little overwhelming (in a good way!!) so I apologize if I miss some people.

i like the idea that after Havoc gets un-paralyzed from the waist down with the philosopher stone he still needs to use crutches to get used to walking again
That’s actually what happens in the Manga! We’re shown havoc going through physical therapy in one of the photographs at the end!
AAGWGWGWGW WHEN HE GETS HIS EYESIGHT BACK AND SMILES AT HER I ACTUALLY AGRGRGRGRG
Literally my new head canon-riza being the first person he looks at once he gets his vision back
being insane again about royai in 2023 was not on my bingo card but im so fucking here for it this is phenomenal
Hahaha same and it's almost 2024
Being crazy about royai in 2024 rn
being insane about them again after 3 years 😭
The views are CRIMINALLY low on this. This is incredible!!! I love the way they look at each other… feels just like the show and that much more. And I just love the black and white contrast so much. This was beautifully done.
This is SO sweet! I was trying so hard to get their expressions right when looking at one another, and I'm glad to see that seemed to come across right! Also, the black and white scheme was the first thing I thought of when I started making the thumbnails to this animatic!
well said
- How many times did you watch it?
- Yes.
This fandom is still alive with incredible artists to represent it and I'm so here for it!!!!
The opening scene is so cinematic it caught me off GUARD I LOVE THEMMM
Petition to track down TH-cam algorithm and arrest if for not showing this to all of TH-cam
I AM??? IN ABSOLUTE LOVE?????? THE LINES ARE SO CLEAN AND THE ANIMATION SO SMOOTH AND!!! GOSH THE WAY YOU MANAGED TO CAPTURE THEIR RELATIONSHIP!!!!!!!! Love looking at all the suttle ways they express their love by just staying by each other's side through all.... I hold them dearly with both of my hands this is beautiful!!
