Title: Crimson Glow
Fansubbed by: Anime-Keep & ANBU

The homunculus Greed escapes from his 130-year imprisonment, ravages the prison lab, and sets all the inmates free.

Meanwhile, Alphonse teams up with his arch-nemesis Scar to save Edward . . .

But at that very moment, Edward is confronted by the hideously maimed body of . . . Shou Tucker.

The End.

RATING: B

Without a doubt, this series is getting extremely serious, as we witness a suicide in real time, the aftermath of human torture, and the ritual crushing of societal norms.

Still though, this series is utterly compelling, and one can't help but wonder if there will be a point where everything will unravel. Although nothing really can be said at this point, it seems that we're moving quite quickly to a climactic episode within this '5th laboratory' arc.
