@MCbeccy89 what he’s saying still goes with the scenes. He just remixed it. If you watch most the scenes he’s still talking about the same thing just in his own way so it goes with it lol
Before the show revealed Bradley was the Wrath Homunculus, my theory was that he was the Time Alchemist. 1.) He moved so fast that I thought he could stop time, slice up people & restart it giving the illusion he’s super fast. 2.) He kept ranting about aging & getting old so it would fit the theme of a time alchemist as much as a homunculus.
@Chaodhack Tom I was still going off on equivalent exchange. So I thought that if there’s a time alchemist that can stop time, although time has stopped for everyone & everything, they still age in the frozen timeframe. I’m a way stopping time for a second is giving a second of your lifetime. Therefore a time alchemist would look like a rapidly aging person if they used & abused there power.
Sounds cool BUT even the most powerful alchemy we have seen are still based on the « changing matter into another matter » ability.Time is not really something you could touch and rearrange on a molecular level lol
YOUR TELLIN ME, this man WAS 60, had no healing, had a single sword and it still took a tank, Fu, Greed, Buccaneer, briggs men, Scar and LITERALLY GOD to kill him. Man a menace fr.
And it was a good thing he was too. Cause the Creator themselves said that, had Bradley been in his prime. Over majority of the cast would've been dead before the halfway point of the series.
Rest In Peace Ed Blaylock, voice of President Fuhrer King Bradley, Sebas Tian and Fleet Admiral Sengoku. One of the absolute best performances in all of anime he had a truly unique quality of voice. His talent really made Bradley's character shine.
This is a homunculus who ages and doesn’t regenerate. He’s essentially 50 or 60 years old and he was a complete challenge to all these people. It’s never flat out said, but everyone there should be grateful they didn’t face Bradley if he was in his prime or could regenerate and Rest in peace Ed Blaylock (King Bradley) your voice will not be forgotten.
@korsekil thats a cool way but it might not be bradley himself. It's because the stone was literally wrath. All the souls in it were basically on raging steroids x1000. So when they were let loose on Bradley's body, they started killing each other off in an enraged frenzy and Bradley's soul also fought for survival. In the end we don't know if Bradley is actually Bradley or just one of the souls in the philoplsophers stone that took over and got his memories. He even says himself that he doesn't know which one he is. But that he is only the Wrath. He can't regenerate because his stone is only one soul, so no spare souls/energy to use for regeneration.
Not exactly. His strength comes from WHY he lost the ability to regenerate. The philosopher's stone contains hundreds of souls, which the homonculi use both to fuel their powers and to tap into as their extra lives. Bradley came from a special experiment where instead of building a homonculus from the stone, they shove it into a human to see what happens. Everyone else went mad except for Bradley. His solution? Fight and kill EVERY soul inside the stone until only the strongest one survives. He used the damn stone as a training course.
@Superior Holy King It was a little rough at first, but for S3 and S4 Bill Jenkins is nailing the impression and if one didn't know better a person might think it was Ed. Blaylock also had a small part in Baccano!, one of The Best dubs of all time.
11:02 Interesting fact. The philosopher stone of wrath when injected into Bradley, all the souls in the stone all killed each other and Bradley was the sole survivor but he doesnt even know if he was the original Bradley or just one of the souls. Its also the reason he can age and can't regenerate like the others, because his stone basically has no more power. He gets a few boosts but his stone is basically drained. Which I thinks thats why so many died during the Wrath Experiment, the stone literally killed them. Which would mean wraths stone is the most dangerous to absorb and Greeds would be the safest since Greed would want more people around instead of killing his host.
I remember the first time I watched Fullmetal alchemist, and I was always wondering why the hell is Bradley showing up every time I don’t know where to get into trouble in their search for the philosopher, stone. And as a kid, I had started to put the pieces together, but didn’t have the experience to understand the depth of how absolutely cold Bradley is until the end. And now as an adult, I can truly appreciate just how much a monster Bradley truly is.
Bradley’s line as he pulls up on everyone, “ Do they really expect me to make a mockery of myself by entering through the backdoor of my own palace?” was one of the coldest lines I have ever heard. He wanted the smoke and he made sure that everyone there knew.
@Animation Dude There was one scene where he was going full banana shtting crazy then did a silly right afterwards. The abruptness was jarring and damn disturbing.
Fighting Bradley in one of the FullMetal Alchemist games will always haunt me. Everyone else was essentially just a normal fight, but then you get to Bradley and he might as well be a God the way he smites you and any hope you have of winning.
16:27 I think this is my favorite quote from Wrath in all the series. Imagine being such a menace that you deal with a rebellious take-over of your HQ with the same tone as a disappointed father coming home earlier to find his kids having a party behing his back... the one where he knows his foot is about to end in some disrespectful brat(s) ass(es) !!
The interesting thing about Bradley's death. The man took out a tank, fought Greed, Captain Buccaneer, and a Old Ninja, And Scar. And Died because he was blinded by what some people called Divine Intervention by parting the clouds and letting the Sun Blind him letting scar have an Opening to deal a lethal blow. He quite literally needed divine Intervention to kill this man. And he was using an empty Philosopher stone. Also like all the Homunculi he died Ironically. Wrath died at peace.
The coldest part about King Bradley is that the creator of FMA even confirmed that, if he had been in his prime, the half the characters would have died before the halfway point of the story. Which is crazy when you keep in mind that Bradley is the only Homunculus *WITHOUT* a healing factor, super strength etc. He was just the absolute peak of what a human could do. Nothing more, nothing less. The only advantage he had was his eye tellling him his opponent's exact weak spots and where to strike for maximum damage.
@KazooieX1 it was confirmed that Bradley is able to do this because he fully exhausted his stone. from the beginning of the experiment til his later years, he unalived every soul in the stone until he was the only one left. bro got the ultimate zenkai boost.
@floricel_112 If you had someone born with what Dennis Rogers has and then trained like someone to peak of humanity they probably could do a similar feat.
Official Petition for CJ to grant Mustang his official Black Air Forces. He's displayed his warrant for deserving them time and again, especially after bringing the fires of justice against Envy.
I think the reason why so many people loved Omni man so much is because...besides the look, he has the same energy as this man right here. Both are highly charaismatic and seem like overall wise old men...but are both overwhelming messed in the head and are genuinely fucking terrifying
King Bradley in BOTH VERSIONS of FMA, was such a menace, people went out of their way to either avoid him, or throw everything at the man to get him out of the way. This is probably one of the best villains to be created, Anime or not: You understood why he was that way, and at times you had empathy for the man, BUT you never forgot he was the bad guy and Bradley NEVER pretended to be justified or the hero of his own story. The man knew who he was, and what he was there for and killed everybody in the way of that goal.
And what's more, in the first version, he was PRIDE and had the regen! Dude got done in by a SKULL. If they hadnt found that thing, EVERYONE would've died, full stop. Now imagine if WRATH Bradley had that.
I would love for you to add general grievous from the 2000's clone wars cartoon to the table. The dude was an untouchable ruthless monster, definitely black air force material.
Just a little fun fact for everyone. The Creator of FMA has fully stated and admitted that, had Bradley been in his prime, over half of the cast would've been long dead before the series had reached its halfway point in the story.
Not gonna lie, King Bradley was one of the best parts of this series. Everyone's reaction when he announced himself in the city after they thought they had won and seeing their expressions was PRICELESS. He had on those Black Force Timbs the way he faded folks.
Conically pride is the strongest homunculus, he's a giant, immortal shadow monster that, in the right circumstances, could one shot a city. And off all the things you might expect Father to have his strongest homunculus doing, as he weaves he great conspiracy to devour god, the thing he considers to be the best use of Pride's time is spying on King Bradley to make sure he stays loyal. Even the final boss feared what this man might get up to if he didn't keep him on some kind of leash.
You forgot my favorite part about when he called roy, Edward and alphonse in, there were no guards or anyone else present, man said “I dare y’all to jump me I will whoop all your ass at once, it will not be hard for me”
I love how on paper, King Bradley is the weakest homunculus. He lacks the regenerative immortality that is standard of the other homunculus, and while his ability is broken, it is heavily dependent on personal skill. Pride can weaponize literal darkness, Lust has razor-sharp claws and her intelligence, Envy is a shape-shifting tank, Greed is temporarily bullet-proof, and Sloth is a tank with the speed of a bullet-train (if motivated). In spite of that, nearly all the Homunculus respect him.
Is wasn't so much her crying it was her making noise during a solemn occasion specifically her calling out to her dead father as they put dirt on his casket. He was pissed she wasn't grasping the concept and in his eyes she was disrespecting the occasion.
It's the Southern accent combined with the Stinkmeaner mannerisms that make this video top tier. Also the fact that whenever you voice these characters it never feelings off or forced, in another universe they could sound that way.
CJ over here going back and forth between Uncle Ruckus and Stinkmeanier voices is the best freaking part of this video 😂😂 hopefully he won't be homeless next video, made me sad.
What I love about Bradley’s last words towards Lan Fan is that he’s actually screwing with her emotions. Lan Fan asked King if he had any last words for his wife, and he didn’t. There are no more words that need pass between them because his wife would understand. That being married, to be the wife of the Fuhrer would mean that you have a solid chance of never being there when your husband dies on a battlefield or murdered in his sleep, and there would be no last words to have from him. The real kicker to this is that he’s aware that Lan Fan has a thing for Ling, the prince, and she has to acknowledge the fact that even if Ling becomes the next ruler, that doesn’t mean people will stop trying to kill him; that there’s a good chance that Ling may get killed someday, and Lan Fan won’t be around to hear his last words.
@Hafi Renggayuda I don't see it that way. Wrath was infuriated when people didn't get angry, Scar's decision to let go of his hate really annoyed him. Same for the girl.
it was confirmed that Bradley is able to achieve these crazy feats because he fully exhausted his stone. from the beginning of the experiment til his later years, he unalived every soul in the stone until he was the only one left. bro got the ultimate zenkai boost.
Alright, I just thought abt this. But I think Tai Lung, from the 1st Kung-Fu Panda needs a video. a.) After being locked up for 20 YEARS, he broke out of his restraints with a feather, proceeding to fade every gaurd on site, and then he sent a message to everyone that he escaped before he even left. b.) He beat living crap out of Shifu, and broke Oogway's staff c.) Furious Five tried to jump him, 5v1. He faded them too
14:23 When my Most Powerful Enemy named Behemoth Spins my block and leaves like A Pussycat. 4:25 - 4:35 FUCK fest 5:18 When the Enemy realizes who I am. 7:51 Lust Dies 8:13 Gluttony is who I remember the most from F.M.A Brotherhood 17:17 - 17:41 When the enemy thinks they've won
King Bradley was pure air force when they asked him why he would go through the front door… He is like what kind of king would sneak into his own castle… him storming the castle was insane because he ONLY moved forward… I think the best thing about his strategy was the fact he went straight at them rejuvenated his troops to continue fighting
Hey CJ I think a great contender for the round table is thrawn from season 3 of star wars rebels. Now I know he ain't from anime but he just emanates Black Air Force Energy like no other in star wars sends chills sometimes man. Anyways have a good one!
I feel like King Bradley is the example I seen one story explain on how dangerous the one character without healing powers in a team of badass immortals/mutants is so dangerous. All the others let themselves get hurt or do the occasional stupid ass move to scare anyone. Someone like Bradley can’t play around and act crazy like the immortals/healers so he ends up being crazy to the others because of how skilled he is to everyone else.
@Jimmysticks I think it's more like Gu/ poison jar concept of chinese legend; Put hundreds/ thousands of venomous creature in one jar, seal it for a while, one living survivor is the strongest. "Bradley" is the single survivor who had defeat and consume all other souls on the stone. Homonculi control souls by inherent ability, Hohenheim pacify by understanding each one of them, Bradley rule them by might.
@Azazel Siad Not exactly. You have to understand how the philosopher's stone works to know why he lost his healing and why that makes him insanely strong. Basically, each stone is forged from hundreds of human souls. When a homonculis regenerates, they're basically using the stone's many souls as new lives for themselves. It's therefore possible to kill them eventually by dealing so much damage they've expended all of their lives. Now, Bradley is different from the others - instead of being spawned from the stone, they instead implanted the stone into a living human. This experiment was done many times over but all of them went insane because of all the souls inside them. Bradley "fixed" this issue by FIGHTING and systematically eliminating all of the souls inside himself, until only the strongest remained. Whether this is the original Bradley or not, even he's not sure - but it basically means the soul inside Bradley is literally the strongest among HUNDREDS. This is further complimented by his Ultimate Eye, which lets him find weakness and attack patterns and react to it quickly, basically giving the ULTIMATE WARRIOR a speedster boost. In short - while the other homonculi are entire armies of souls in single bodies, Bradley is a one-soul army, dangerous even to his fellow homonculi and alchemists that normally shrug them off like Mustang.
Honestly he’s one of the first homunculus that were made, I personally think he ended up trading his regenerative abilities for his true sight ability, notice he only started losing steam after his eye took some damage making it harder for him to perceive from it.
I have a theory that every time wrath washes some poor soul he feels genuine satisfaction, at being his true self, jubilation streight up. Hence the right up character change after sum good ultra violence! 🖤
An interesting detail I noticed rewatching FMA recently was Wrath seems to give some leeway to acts of pure vengeful Wrath. Not just killing Mustang and saving Lust is the obvious example cause Mustang wasn't seen as a sacrifice and protected yet. Like Wrath could have killed everybody in that room no problem and the villains plan probably would have worked much better with Lust alive as there's a lot of implications the Homonculi became much more disorganized without her and Mustang not flash frying Envy later. But it's almost like him being pure distilled Wrath and all gives him a weakness for it. Mustang was really nothing but a liability to make a sacrifice but I think Wrath was convinced as much by that display of hardcore primal rage as he was his alchemic potential. Greedling has a couple examples too. Trying to kill him out of wrath and not reporting it to Father is an example. He also noticed Ling's personality was resurfacing and laughed it off and didn't tell Father after Ling got so pissed he temporarily regained control from Greed. In the databook, it also says due being a secret government project and all he didn't know how to talk to women and his first date with his wife she slapped him for being rude which given he was being fast tracked for being Furher probably was part of what sold her to him. It's almost like a blindspot for him and that flaw is so interesting and fits him so well thematically but the story doesn't draw attention to it in the same way Envy or Pride's sins bite them in the ass. Brilliant writing.
You know what is the funniest thing that CJ left out? Even in death Bradley *WON* all the messed up shit he did never comes to light he is forever martyred as a hero that defended the country.
@G You know a villain has insane influence when the fact of just revealing their evil shit would cause such harm it would be easier for the heroes to just hide the whole thing.
To be fair, it was an intentional choice the good guys made Revealing all that nasty, downright unbelievable shit would have done way more bad than good. Especially with the state Amestris was in. Not to mention Bradley's poor wife, who'd already had to suffer so much
Man's was really about to throw hands at a funeral cuz a kid was crying. The definition of " This hands are rated E - for everyone , everything, everybody and ever country." He was really the uncle ruckus of full metal alchemist.
What makes this more impressive is that Bradley is a regular human, just with a sharingan in his left eye, and he just trained to get that good since he doesn't age the same
@floricel_112 he can see the weak points of things so, also he pierced through the tank hole that was open (so they can see) and dropped a bomb on it idk why you phrasing it like he cut it or some shit, add on the scaling for human limits is ridiculous in the show as armstrong and edward's master literally be beating homunculus no alchemy sometimes despite them having super strength, but you probably don't know that since you didn't watch it.
I'm wondering if the hall is not fully built was meant to be some lore behind Cj. An alternate version where he truly judges the deeds of the most wicked souls. A judge sitting on the level of a god but never interferes. For it is a sacred privilege to see the darkness unfold so the light may shine brighter.
@Darryl Ferguson Pretty sure the mangaka confirmed that if Bradley was in his prime, our main characters would have lost way before they even started the coup de tat.
You should do Ali al-Saachez from Gundam 00, that dude loves war so much he lives for it. He even fucks up the main protag’s childhood life by turning him into a child soldier as ruse and kills *spoilers* in season 1. That dude is straight up a menace.
OTG, I thought you were about to talk about Bradley from FMA 2003. He actually murdered his son by breaking his neck. The kid was about 3-5 years old!!!
bradley had no healing, could age, wasnt in his prime and had no insane super power except for an eye that can see weakspots. and he had to keep covering it up. This man is a threat because of pure skill. He took so much damage, stared down the strongest alchemists he knew and asked whos next.
CJ is the definition of quality over quantity, this man's editing & commentary is on point, respect
WORD, Nimry.🤓😎
Bruh playing the FFX dungeon music✌🏿✌🏿💯
@HiredKiller08 then you do a video as long as his and do amazing commentary all bark no bite
No cap
It’s hilarious how well every line matches up with the scenes he picks.
@MCbeccy89 what he’s saying still goes with the scenes. He just remixed it. If you watch most the scenes he’s still talking about the same thing just in his own way so it goes with it lol
👍
Very nice brother 🥰🥰🥰
Nice
👍
Bradley is one of those men who can walk up to an army and tells them that they're surrounded.
This line's gold
If Omni man ruled a country
Enemy armies of hundreds, seeing him approach: OH NO, WE’RE OUTNUMBERED !!!
Nah bros like call an ambulance but not for me
He’s the definition of “I’m not stuck in here with you, you’re stuck in here with ME!”
Before the show revealed Bradley was the Wrath Homunculus, my theory was that he was the Time Alchemist.
1.) He moved so fast that I thought he could stop time, slice up people & restart it giving the illusion he’s super fast.
2.) He kept ranting about aging & getting old so it would fit the theme of a time alchemist as much as a homunculus.
@Raymond Reviews That does sounds cool, for sure.
@Chaodhack Tom I was still going off on equivalent exchange. So I thought that if there’s a time alchemist that can stop time, although time has stopped for everyone & everything, they still age in the frozen timeframe. I’m a way stopping time for a second is giving a second of your lifetime. Therefore a time alchemist would look like a rapidly aging person if they used & abused there power.
Sounds cool BUT even the most powerful alchemy we have seen are still based on the « changing matter into another matter » ability.Time is not really something you could touch and rearrange on a molecular level lol
Not gonna lie that would actually be pretty cool to see an alchemist using Time powers
Solid theory
YOUR TELLIN ME, this man WAS 60, had no healing, had a single sword and it still took a tank, Fu, Greed, Buccaneer, briggs men, Scar and LITERALLY GOD to kill him. Man a menace fr.
@ZetsuboArchfiend ‘Over the majority’ is a bit generous, lol. Everyone except Greed and the 5 sacrifices is *dead.*
Could Hohenheim even beat him?
And it was a good thing he was too. Cause the Creator themselves said that, had Bradley been in his prime. Over majority of the cast would've been dead before the halfway point of the series.
Well… he also had 1 grenade? 😂
Rest In Peace Ed Blaylock, voice of President Fuhrer King Bradley, Sebas Tian and Fleet Admiral Sengoku. One of the absolute best performances in all of anime he had a truly unique quality of voice. His talent really made Bradley's character shine.
This is a homunculus who ages and doesn’t regenerate. He’s essentially 50 or 60 years old and he was a complete challenge to all these people. It’s never flat out said, but everyone there should be grateful they didn’t face Bradley if he was in his prime or could regenerate and Rest in peace Ed Blaylock (King Bradley) your voice will not be forgotten.
But this is an anime so you get stronger with time
Why did we have to kill king Bradley because his voice actor was taking the l
@Keith He wasn't being sarcastic. He does have a human body after all
@The Cod one on one against father or hoenheim he would win hands down
@Jimmysticks man, if bradley had hellsing alucards form of regen tho
King Bradley is so powerful because he can’t regenerate, so he has to actually think tactically instead of just attacking all out
@korsekil thats a cool way but it might not be bradley himself. It's because the stone was literally wrath. All the souls in it were basically on raging steroids x1000. So when they were let loose on Bradley's body, they started killing each other off in an enraged frenzy and Bradley's soul also fought for survival. In the end we don't know if Bradley is actually Bradley or just one of the souls in the philoplsophers stone that took over and got his memories.
He even says himself that he doesn't know which one he is. But that he is only the Wrath.
He can't regenerate because his stone is only one soul, so no spare souls/energy to use for regeneration.
@Jimmysticks that man is a different breed
Not exactly. His strength comes from WHY he lost the ability to regenerate. The philosopher's stone contains hundreds of souls, which the homonculi use both to fuel their powers and to tap into as their extra lives.

Fight and kill EVERY soul inside the stone until only the strongest one survives. He used the damn stone as a training course.
Yup his battle prowess and precision was scary
I always thought he's one of the dopest ENG voiced characters in anime. RIP to his VA Ed Blaylock. Fantastic performance.
@Superior Holy King It was a little rough at first, but for S3 and S4 Bill Jenkins is nailing the impression and if one didn't know better a person might think it was Ed.
Blaylock also had a small part in Baccano!, one of The Best dubs of all time.
@00Clank I was devastated to hear he passed after realizing that they changed his va in s2 of Overlord
I watched Overlord just so I could listen to one of his last performances. Such a champion.
11:02
Interesting fact.
The philosopher stone of wrath when injected into Bradley, all the souls in the stone all killed each other and Bradley was the sole survivor but he doesnt even know if he was the original Bradley or just one of the souls.
Its also the reason he can age and can't regenerate like the others, because his stone basically has no more power. He gets a few boosts but his stone is basically drained.
Which I thinks thats why so many died during the Wrath Experiment, the stone literally killed them. Which would mean wraths stone is the most dangerous to absorb and Greeds would be the safest since Greed would want more people around instead of killing his host.
Being from Louisiana,you making King Bradley sound like a Southerner was a stroke of genius

Dude was on Trill time
Wanted the fire
I noticed that whenever there’s a character that seems “happy/cheerful” with that closed-eye smile while talking, that’s usually the menace 😂
@Animation Dude There was one scene where he was going full banana shtting crazy then did a silly right afterwards. The abruptness was jarring and damn disturbing.
Terumi from blazblue
@Altez Gon wasn’t he on death row before Ging befriended him?
Hisoka lmao
Fighting Bradley in one of the FullMetal Alchemist games will always haunt me. Everyone else was essentially just a normal fight, but then you get to Bradley and he might as well be a God the way he smites you and any hope you have of winning.
"SALUTE THY N*GGA" is probably the best CJ line I've heard in a minute

@floricel_112 If you had someone born with what Dennis Rogers has and then trained like someone to peak of humanity they probably could do a similar feat.
No, he got super strength. Lol
I like how this man just turns every anime into the boondocks.
Im here for it
💀💀
Bradley was literally the definition of Black Air Force Energy.
Official Petition for CJ to grant Mustang his official Black Air Forces. He's displayed his warrant for deserving them time and again, especially after bringing the fires of justice against Envy.
Bradley is literally the video game main character killing everything in his path with just whatever he finds
I think the reason why so many people loved Omni man so much is because...besides the look, he has the same energy as this man right here. Both are highly charaismatic and seem like overall wise old men...but are both overwhelming messed in the head and are genuinely fucking terrifying

@Vash_the_Stampede if him, big boss, and Deathstroke teamed up, my god
@Merrick Moore-Fields more like Deathstroke
yes!
@Merrick Moore-Fields He is an unstoppable king of the black air force energy
And the king needs a throne.
I would love for you to add general grievous from the 2000's clone wars cartoon to the table. The dude was an untouchable ruthless monster, definitely black air force material.
That was my second time seeing grievous and man was he a menace
"I've been waiting for this day" gets me every time.

Bradley's just one of the best villains of all time. Full stop,
When all his swords were broken, I expected him to say "The swords were only handicaps", and start chopping mofos with his hands.

King Bradley running wild in Brotherhood is everything the original series teased us with and much....MUCH more.
I think it's pretty wild how out of all the humonculus the one who's only power is being really really good at sword play is the most scary one
When he comes back to take Central after the rebels victory, my mouth dropped open. Oh schtick that was one of the best parts on FMAB

Aight, CJ Saying "Man this some ol bullshit"
is the best charachter development, and him talking about a menace while IN THE STREETS
is truly poetic.
@Protalghulnist he returned from whence he came. No better development than the MC coming home after his training arc.
Explain the character development
Cj dachamp"s videos are really Dope 🔥 👌 💯
😂😂
i genuinely mean it when i say i love when you guys collab. smiles and laughs the entire time; well done, boys!
You forgot my favorite part about when he called roy, Edward and alphonse in, there were no guards or anyone else present, man said “I dare y’all to jump me I will whoop all your ass at once, it will not be hard for me”
They lampshaded that in the series. They all knew Bradley could waste them at any second.
I like how Bradley turns into Uncle Ruckus overtime 🤣🤣🤣
I’m loving the continuity of the Roundtable of BAA being built, CJ really has a whole plot going

Being named just wrath after the LITERAL SIN is enough proof that this man is a menace.
I love how on paper, King Bradley is the weakest homunculus.
He lacks the regenerative immortality that is standard of the other homunculus, and while his ability is broken, it is heavily dependent on personal skill.
Pride can weaponize literal darkness, Lust has razor-sharp claws and her intelligence, Envy is a shape-shifting tank, Greed is temporarily bullet-proof, and Sloth is a tank with the speed of a bullet-train (if motivated).
In spite of that, nearly all the Homunculus respect him.
@DEATHPLUMPCAKE you ever think about how greed would be practically unbeatable if he just armored himself completely at the start of his fights?
@mementomeme Yep, his rage was very strong
RIP Maes Hughes
@Ren Amamiya same here mustang rage gave me goosebumps man
Still think he would have washed the other six somehow
@Simon definitely can take sloth, greed, gluttony, envy and lust on one on one fight. Not so sure about pride
how bradley went from “nice old man” to uncle ruckus so gradually through the video is probably the most accurate portrayal of the fuhrer🤣🤣🤣
Is wasn't so much her crying it was her making noise during a solemn occasion specifically her calling out to her dead father as they put dirt on his casket. He was pissed she wasn't grasping the concept and in his eyes she was disrespecting the occasion.
Bradley was definitely one of the scariest homunculus throughout the series. Just subscribed, notifications fell on!!!
Everytime he says "Stop Resisting" I start dying 😂
It's the Southern accent combined with the Stinkmeaner mannerisms that make this video top tier. Also the fact that whenever you voice these characters it never feelings off or forced, in another universe they could sound that way.
Indeed
Bradly might be all that but when u gonna Add GoJo mannnnnnnnnnnn u need to add GoJo he deserves to be in the BA1 next
Sounds like a mixture of stink meaner and Uncle Ruckus
This takes Drill Sergeant Nasty to a whole new extreme. I love it! 🤣🤣
“Greed, I said STOP Resistin!!!”
CJ over here going back and forth between Uncle Ruckus and Stinkmeanier voices is the best freaking part of this video 😂😂 hopefully he won't be homeless next video, made me sad.
5:55 It bothered me that Greed never tried fully shielding vs Wrath. Even when his crew basically sacrificed themselves to give him a chance for that.
iirc, greed doesn't like fully shielding bc it covers his face. plus he didn't know who he was at the time
"Raaaaff of the black forces" bro this line killed me 🤣
Bro the editing, commentary, and content is immaculate
What I love about Bradley’s last words towards Lan Fan is that he’s actually screwing with her emotions. Lan Fan asked King if he had any last words for his wife, and he didn’t. There are no more words that need pass between them because his wife would understand. That being married, to be the wife of the Fuhrer would mean that you have a solid chance of never being there when your husband dies on a battlefield or murdered in his sleep, and there would be no last words to have from him.
The real kicker to this is that he’s aware that Lan Fan has a thing for Ling, the prince, and she has to acknowledge the fact that even if Ling becomes the next ruler, that doesn’t mean people will stop trying to kill him; that there’s a good chance that Ling may get killed someday, and Lan Fan won’t be around to hear his last words.
@Hafi Renggayuda I don't see it that way. Wrath was infuriated when people didn't get angry, Scar's decision to let go of his hate really annoyed him. Same for the girl.
@EmptyMan000 even in his dying breath, he still have a need to out maneuver his opponent.
@Crishon FogleI like this one
it was confirmed that Bradley is able to achieve these crazy feats because he fully exhausted his stone. from the beginning of the experiment til his later years, he unalived every soul in the stone until he was the only one left. bro got the ultimate zenkai boost.
Alright, I just thought abt this. But I think Tai Lung, from the 1st Kung-Fu Panda needs a video.
a.) After being locked up for 20 YEARS, he broke out of his restraints with a feather, proceeding to fade every gaurd on site, and then he sent a message to everyone that he escaped before he even left.
b.) He beat living crap out of Shifu, and broke Oogway's staff
c.) Furious Five tried to jump him, 5v1. He faded them too
14:23 When my Most Powerful Enemy named Behemoth Spins my block and leaves like A Pussycat.
4:25 - 4:35 FUCK fest
5:18 When the Enemy realizes who I am.
7:51 Lust Dies
8:13 Gluttony is who I remember the most from F.M.A Brotherhood
17:17 - 17:41 When the enemy thinks they've won
Coldest line he ever spoke "Do they really think I'd go through the back door of MY Palace?"

King Bradley is one person you never want to meet alone at night
King Bradley was pure air force when they asked him why he would go through the front door… He is like what kind of king would sneak into his own castle… him storming the castle was insane because he ONLY moved forward… I think the best thing about his strategy was the fact he went straight at them rejuvenated his troops to continue fighting
This is some REAL KING shit right there
Link to the Clip : they finally released this
kzclip.org/video/vC0roEkkKkQ/бейне.html
We need more of these voice overs man was doing perfect
The fact you gave him the cell walk sound effects is just awesome 👌
Dude your commentary is killing me! This was so well done.
CONGRATS YOU HAVE BEEN PICKED AMONGST MY WINNER'S DM THE NUMBER ABOVE 🥉🥉🎁🎊🎁❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hey CJ I think a great contender for the round table is thrawn from season 3 of star wars rebels. Now I know he ain't from anime but he just emanates Black Air Force Energy like no other in star wars sends chills sometimes man. Anyways have a good one!

BRO I FORGOT HOW MUCH OF A MENACE THIS MAN WAS
I feel like King Bradley is the example I seen one story explain on how dangerous the one character without healing powers in a team of badass immortals/mutants is so dangerous. All the others let themselves get hurt or do the occasional stupid ass move to scare anyone. Someone like Bradley can’t play around and act crazy like the immortals/healers so he ends up being crazy to the others because of how skilled he is to everyone else.
@Jimmysticks I think it's more like Gu/ poison jar concept of chinese legend; Put hundreds/ thousands of venomous creature in one jar, seal it for a while, one living survivor is the strongest. "Bradley" is the single survivor who had defeat and consume all other souls on the stone.
Homonculi control souls by inherent ability, Hohenheim pacify by understanding each one of them, Bradley rule them by might.
@Azazel Siad Not exactly. You have to understand how the philosopher's stone works to know why he lost his healing and why that makes him insanely strong.
Basically, each stone is forged from hundreds of human souls. When a homonculis regenerates, they're basically using the stone's many souls as new lives for themselves. It's therefore possible to kill them eventually by dealing so much damage they've expended all of their lives.
Now, Bradley is different from the others - instead of being spawned from the stone, they instead implanted the stone into a living human. This experiment was done many times over but all of them went insane because of all the souls inside them. Bradley "fixed" this issue by FIGHTING and systematically eliminating all of the souls inside himself, until only the strongest remained. Whether this is the original Bradley or not, even he's not sure - but it basically means the soul inside Bradley is literally the strongest among HUNDREDS. This is further complimented by his Ultimate Eye, which lets him find weakness and attack patterns and react to it quickly, basically giving the ULTIMATE WARRIOR a speedster boost.
In short - while the other homonculi are entire armies of souls in single bodies, Bradley is a one-soul army, dangerous even to his fellow homonculi and alchemists that normally shrug them off like Mustang.
Honestly he’s one of the first homunculus that were made, I personally think he ended up trading his regenerative abilities for his true sight ability, notice he only started losing steam after his eye took some damage making it harder for him to perceive from it.
A man with something to lose is dangerous than someone who can risk
Well, "no powers" besides the standard anime/manga powerboost.
Bradley was my favorite character in this series. He was just such a badass.
I have a theory that every time wrath washes some poor soul he feels genuine satisfaction, at being his true self, jubilation streight up. Hence the right up character change after sum good ultra violence! 🖤

An interesting detail I noticed rewatching FMA recently was Wrath seems to give some leeway to acts of pure vengeful Wrath. Not just killing Mustang and saving Lust is the obvious example cause Mustang wasn't seen as a sacrifice and protected yet. Like Wrath could have killed everybody in that room no problem and the villains plan probably would have worked much better with Lust alive as there's a lot of implications the Homonculi became much more disorganized without her and Mustang not flash frying Envy later. But it's almost like him being pure distilled Wrath and all gives him a weakness for it. Mustang was really nothing but a liability to make a sacrifice but I think Wrath was convinced as much by that display of hardcore primal rage as he was his alchemic potential.
Greedling has a couple examples too. Trying to kill him out of wrath and not reporting it to Father is an example. He also noticed Ling's personality was resurfacing and laughed it off and didn't tell Father after Ling got so pissed he temporarily regained control from Greed.
In the databook, it also says due being a secret government project and all he didn't know how to talk to women and his first date with his wife she slapped him for being rude which given he was being fast tracked for being Furher probably was part of what sold her to him. It's almost like a blindspot for him and that flaw is so interesting and fits him so well thematically but the story doesn't draw attention to it in the same way Envy or Pride's sins bite them in the ass. Brilliant writing.
I aspire to make content this fire! Bro I don’t know how long it takes to make these but I appreciate every moment of what you do!
21:09 his voice just kills me. Cause he truly couldn’t wait for that fade.
You know a character is badass when you need half of The main characters to take him down 💯
So that's why the king of spades remained me of him.
Actually just Shredder.
21:09 Monologue is just freaking hilarious and brilliant! I can't stop rewatching lol!
Scar vs Bradley was the physical embodiment of black air forces vs black timbs
Bradley doesn't whip out a belt for punishment, he whips out a sword.
You know what is the funniest thing that CJ left out? Even in death Bradley *WON* all the messed up shit he did never comes to light he is forever martyred as a hero that defended the country.
@G You know a villain has insane influence when the fact of just revealing their evil shit would cause such harm it would be easier for the heroes to just hide the whole thing.
@Golden Crusader True. Poor woman probably would have killed herself if that came to light. Was bad enough with her adopted child being a homunculus.
To be fair, it was an intentional choice the good guys made
Revealing all that nasty, downright unbelievable shit would have done way more bad than good. Especially with the state Amestris was in.
Not to mention Bradley's poor wife, who'd already had to suffer so much
It's amazing how well the FFX music goes with this scene
Having King Bradley voiced by Uncle Ruckus is HILARIOUS!!!
Finally! People never mention this man when it comes to Black Airforce activity
I definitely need to rewatch Brotherhood, that was one of the greatest series I ever watched
Thank you for watching and leaving a Comment, you've been selected as the shortlisted winner's of playstation5 giveaway...
I've rewatched this 20 times at least and Im just now noticing Bradley having Black airforce arms at the end.
Man's was really about to throw hands at a funeral cuz a kid was crying. The definition of " This hands are rated E - for everyone , everything, everybody and ever country." He was really the uncle ruckus of full metal alchemist.
@gwuapotron ah thanks for telling me, sorry english is not my first language.
u spittin twin but i have never seen anyone spell "throw" that badly
You don't even know how long I've been waiting for you to this especially when it's my favorite anime character. Just a banger bro😩
The southern Bradley gets me every time
Thank you for watching and leaving a Comment, you've been selected as the shortlisted winner's of playstation5 giveaway.
Bruh was SUCH A MENACE he was way more intimidating than Father, the goddamn MAIN VILLAIN OF THE SERIES AND WE ALL KNEW IT!
You made Bradly sound like a cross between Stinkmeaner and Uncle Ruckus’s.
Yo whenever Bradley had any fighting scenes, it has the sickest animation! This anime is hands down top 5 of all time (brotherhood btw).
What makes this more impressive is that Bradley is a regular human, just with a sharingan in his left eye, and he just trained to get that good since he doesn't age the same
More like byakugan.
@flappy flap he still cut a tank shell in half. Sharingan or not no human can do that.
@floricel_112 he can see the weak points of things so, also he pierced through the tank hole that was open (so they can see) and dropped a bomb on it idk why you phrasing it like he cut it or some shit, add on the scaling for human limits is ridiculous in the show as armstrong and edward's master literally be beating homunculus no alchemy sometimes despite them having super strength, but you probably don't know that since you didn't watch it.
@floricel_112 Regular “anime” human is more like it. The average human in a shounen anime always feels a bit superhuman.
@floricel_112 with sharingan
Fucking loved it mainly cause king Bradley is like one of my favs of all time, but your commentary is superb as always, thanks for the vid

Bradley easily one of my favorite antagonists

Can we just appreciate how his dubbing is in perfect sync with the mouth moments 👏🏽👏🏽
IF YOU HAVENT WATCHED FMAB, GO NOW! SHIT IS LIFE CHANGING 🙌🔥🍻 YOU DA MAN CJ, WAY TO DO OUR BOI WRATH JUSTICE!
I'm wondering if the hall is not fully built was meant to be some lore behind Cj. An alternate version where he truly judges the deeds of the most wicked souls. A judge sitting on the level of a god but never interferes. For it is a sacred privilege to see the darkness unfold so the light may shine brighter.
"Growing old isn't easy...It's frustrating how your body stops moving the way you want it to."
Let that sink in.
@Boundless wonderit's natural to grow weaker with age eventually you reach the point where your body can't do anything it used to do
@Boundless wonder No amount of body building or body maintenance can counter old age.
Entropy always wins.
If you grow weaker with old age then you have failed your body and yourself, just a fact of life nobody wins.
@Darryl Ferguson
Pretty sure the mangaka confirmed that if Bradley was in his prime, our main characters would have lost way before they even started the coup de tat.
You should do Ali al-Saachez from Gundam 00, that dude loves war so much he lives for it. He even fucks up the main protag’s childhood life by turning him into a child soldier as ruse and kills *spoilers* in season 1. That dude is straight up a menace.
Adam from Ragnarok needs a spot on this table just for the sheer disrespect he threw against the gods.... Also mans threw hands.
Once king Bradley said " You don't seem to understand, earth isn't yours to conquer. "
Everything about this mama video from the voicing to writing to the damn fire music he used pure good content
OTG, I thought you were about to talk about Bradley from FMA 2003. He actually murdered his son by breaking his neck. The kid was about 3-5 years old!!!
bradley had no healing, could age, wasnt in his prime and had no insane super power except for an eye that can see weakspots. and he had to keep covering it up. This man is a threat because of pure skill. He took so much damage, stared down the strongest alchemists he knew and asked whos next.
@Rigty Mord it sees every weakspot, not the future
didn't his eye see the future
He was the Furher for a VERY good reason....
CJ got me about to rewatch my favorite anime for the 50th time🤣
