Line 5:
* It wasn't the Hughes' funeral itself which was so profoundly impacting. What really brings everyone to tears is poor little Elysia:
{{quote|'''Elysia''': [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}-nQuX6Xau54 Mommy, how come? Why are they burying Daddy? Who are those people? Why are they burying him, why? They can't! I don't like it! Daddy said he had lots of work to do and if they bury him, he can't do it when he wakes up! Stop them, mommy! Daddy has to do his work, he told me! Why are they burying Daddy, Mommy? Why?] ''[[Wake Up Mommy|...Daddy, wake up!]]''}}
** This scene is arguably even more tragic in ''Brotherhood'', as you can hear the sheer despair ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120419102815/http://video.adultswim.com/fullmetal-alchemist-brotherhood/funeral-for-hughes.html much]'' more clearly.
{{quote|'''Elysia''': Daddy said he has important work he needs to do! No, stop it! Stop putting dirt on him! ''DADDY!!!''}}
* In the manga, during Elysia's outcry, even the Fuhrer is unable to keep his composure, with his hands shaking on his swords pommel. And considering who he is (on so many levels), this is especially emotional. {{spoiler|However, it's later revealed he was shaking for a different, much less sympathetic reason}}...
Line 52:
** {{spoiler|Ling's}} breakdown after that was already heartbreaking in the manga, but Brotherhood just made it even worse, if that's possible. Maybe it's being able to actually hear {{spoiler|Ling's}} screams and watch tears visibly stream down his face, but the whole scene in episode 58 with {{spoiler|Ling desperately crying out for someone to use his stone to save Fu, only to get a cruel realization that despite the powers he's obtained he can't do anything for the situation}} is heartwrenching.
{{quote|'''{{spoiler|Ling}}''': Why...?.... I've finally gained immortality, and I CAN'T SAVE EVEN ONE OF MY SUBJECTS!? ''DAMN IT!!!!''}}
* Ed [https://web.archive.org/web/20100329223614/http://video.adultswim.com/fullmetal-alchemist-brotherhood/give-him-back.html pleading with the Truth] after realizing Al was taken away. "TAKE MY OTHER LEG! OR MY ARM! OR BOTH OF THEM! You can even have my heart... JUST GIVE HIM BACK! HE'S THE ONLY FAMILY I HAVE!"
* Lets have a moment of silence for {{spoiler|Lieutenant Hawkeye getting a sabre to the jugular.}}
* Olivier's reaction, or better yet, lack of reaction to {{spoiler|Buccaneer's death.}} The other character's faces show it [https://web.archive.org/web/20150101100206/http://www.sugooi.org/manga/?m=Fullmetal+Alchemist&c=101&p=9 it][https://web.archive.org/web/20150101100602/http://www.sugooi.org/manga/?m=Fullmetal+Alchemist&c=101&p=10 best].
