Then his past was revealed, he was essentially, the father/mentor figure to Hohenheim, with his own desire to be free of his restrictions at any cost, having a complex personality that could be witty, but sinister as well while yearning for the humane attributes that he outwardly dismisses. In his pursuit of perfection to become completely boundless, he shreds of all of his depth to be a cold-hearted monster with a single-minded goal that hides the one-dimensional nature of a psychotic lunatic that craves power for the sake of it. And in his escalation of power, he loses his humanity to become a feral beast obsessed with self-preservation at all costs, in his ironically most human like form. He then is dragged into the Truth, essentially, Hell, bewildered why he lost, unable to understand due to being a hollow shell of what he used to be. He's no means, sympathetic, but pitiful in sad way.

    It’s very sad that Van and Dwarf were friends, they grew up together, they learned alchemy together, they served the king together. They were basically brothers until Dwarf went and destroyed everything Van loved for the sake of having a body.

    • @Ezio12201
      @Ezio12201 5 лет назад +234

      I don't think he did that out of being evil. I think he cared for Van. Dwarf was funny, witty, wise and a stranger to the world. He thought what he gave Van was a great gift, immortality for someone doomed to die. Only after detaching himself from his, ironically, good sides, he became a cruel monster (though even at that point he really cared for Ed And Al, helping them and not killing them- I mean, really, what chances did they have?). It's not that he was a sadistic monstrosity form the beginning, he wanted very simple things- to be free and be better to eventually become perfect. He was greatful for being alive, so he gave Van the very thing mankind wanted since we gained a level of intelligence higher then the desire for a banana- immortality. It was the means that made Van hate the Dwarf and himself.
      And Dwarf's desire after Xerxes- to become a perfect being is the very thing alchemists of old desired for centuries. To become perfect, to find the Philosopher's Stone, the piece of divinity (actually, it's an interesting story how Philosopher's Stone came into popculture from European alchemy, to which it came from Arabian alchemy, to which it came from the further East, like India).
      Overall FMA is a great way to show that perfection is not becoming "pure" and boring, that life is nothing without our sins, and that the things that make us human are not "the good things", but sides that a lot of moral codes deem as bad and wrong.

    I always thought that “Ed” at the Beginning of the first opening looked kind of off, that’s because it wasn’t Ed, it was Hohenheim. The whole thing started because of Hohenheim’s blood so the show starts with him. The leaves/flowers show the passing of time and him Meeting his wife, then shows Ed who in way takes over for Hohenheim and finishes what he started. I can’t believe I’ve never noticed that before.

But he and Ho really were friends, it's why Dwarf made him immortal and crazy powerful- poor guy probably thought he was giving Ho the bestest present ever. Also, it was the King of Xerxes who was perfectly fine with sacrificing his country- Dwarf jus tricked him since, if SOMEONE'S gotta be immortal, then it might as well be me and my best buddy.

      Say , if they commit human transmutation , they end up summoning someone... at least one soul . Ed's transmutation created a different body but placed Al's soul into that body and it rejected the body ( the manga elaborated it ) , Izumi's transmuted baby had at least some soul in it , although it died , Barry the Chopper had some random animal soul stuck inside his body of flesh and blood. All those transmutations used blood .
      Hohenheim's master was probably a part of this . We don't know who got the rebound or died , but they created a bizarre body and a random soul from the portal got stuck in it . Turns out that this soul is of an intelligent being who is capable of learning really fast , of course the bizarre body could reject him , that's probably the reason he was contained in a flask and Hohenheim's blood was used to stick him in , much like Al's soul being kept inside the Armour with a blood rune .
      Just my two cents.

    • @krosalil7732
      @krosalil7732 3 месяца назад +2

      What Brotherhood doesn't delve into too deeply (which is very odd) is that Dwarf/Father is a piece of The Eye (of God). Father is a piece of God given flesh and form by human blood. Father holds a little bit of detail akin to Lucifer, Jesus, and the AntiChrist with his creation. He was already "born" and made prior to the experiment but he technically didn't exist until he was brought to the human world and given form and sentience of his own.
      You can see here that Father holds some of the latent knowledge he was granted as The Eye. He is born into the world already knowing a great deal about the universe and what it means to exist. He just lacks the omniscience of God where his knowledge is left much more limited and incomplete in scope. This obviously maddens him throughout his existence.
      He existed as God but was bound and became "human" or mortal. He is an incomplete piece of God and also not God either, neither fully human or God but something in between. He is born in a sense feeling that sense of incompleteness and disparity of his existence. He loathes humans but he despises that not only did humans "make" him and brought him to life, that he is human and bound to them at all. His sense of inferiority and inadequacy, his uncertainty over his odd existence morphs and conflates into a superiority complex.
      He now views himself as something not only greater and above all humans, but greater in existence than even God. He rejects his existence and strives to be something more than even what he was before. The superior God. Only he can reshape existence and rewrite it to what he wants. But what he wants most is to destroy any humanity he is tethered to, and always winds up failing. He fails to become better and he becomes much less and squanders any gift that is his existence.

      @@BroadwayRonMexico Hohenheim and Father have a peculiar relationship with each other. They are "twins" in a sense (Hohenheim's blood being the catalyst needed to bound Father into a living form), both their own "creators", their once closest and cherished companions, and always their greatest enemies. Father always carried resentment he shared "blood" with humanity and he was born as a lesser, inferior being. Here, he even doesn't hesitate to continue putting Hohenheim and calling him stupid. Father is amazed, amused, and intrigued at the "brother" who gave him life but sees Hohenheim is obviously perfect and disappointed he had to be carried into existence from someone as low and inferior as this young man.
      Father always has a sense of kinship and connection with Hohenheim where Hoheimheim was the closest person he ever came to loving. Hohenheim was the only person he had any resemblance of being attached to. That he cared about. That he cherished in any way. He taught Hohenheim everything he knew and even was the one who gave Hohenheim a name and identity. A purpose to live beyond being a mere object or tool. In a sense, Father aimed to spare his "brother" from that fate of being trapped in a prison like he was.
      He just couldn't overcome his disdain and jealousy of everything humans had and everything humans are. He coveted the freedom and the ability to walk in the world like Hohenheim did so much, he even stole Hohenheim's physical appearance for his own. He became the very (hu)man he resented and claimed he wanted nothing part of. He always sought to escape and destroy his own humanity but was always found trapped by it and contained by it. He wanted to destroy his "brother", not realizing or caring his "brother's" blood was always what provided him life to begin with. His relationship with Hohenheim was always a mix of deep seated jealousy and while I'd argue not really love but affection.
      From his pov, sparing Hohenheim from the genocidal human sacrifice and granting him immortality along with him was a gift. An act of mercy. Of repayment for everything Hohenheim gave him. He was surprised that Hohenheim was shocked and sickened to his core. While they parted ways, Father also let him go, sparing his life rather than killing him or rescinding the immortality. He perhaps hoped at some point Hohenheim would eventually "come to his senses" and rejoin him. And when Hohenheim left, Father's humanity increasingly did because he lost his own focal point of what being human is.

    Another interesting aspect to me here is how the Dwarf remarked his lack of ability to read and write. "I don't need to know how to read and write to do my work." - "Your slave work." It approaches the idea of acquiring more knowledge and abilities to not be on the level suitable for only a slave and as we know there are many jobs even nowadays which are in fact slave work. People do not try to advance further even though having all the knowledge there is, available in the world up to date, literally in your hand.

    Upon rewatching this after completing the series, you get a sense of how Truth was correct. The Dwarf in The Flask shows several signs of humanity in this scene: His inherent knowledge combined with the introspection offered by his “Sins” allows him to connect to his “Father”, Von Hohenheim.
    We see his wanting to be freed from his flask, and infer that he is a being with conviction. One that seeks to learn and evolve through interaction with the world. We see in his final interaction with Truth that this essence and the subsequent relinquishment of his “human condition” is what damns his actions to bear a sour fruit; He wishes to be perfect, and perceives his “sins” as a liability, thus he discards of them entirely. Afterwards being unable to contemplate his desires that allude his logical discrimination.
    One can ponder what the dwarf might’ve accomplished if he had kept this humanity by his side, he might’ve become a boon to all. Feverishly curious for knowledge he’d be able to use the data he collected throughout time to eventually understand the world in a subjectively perfect framework. But taken aback we see that after his severance to the ties that bind him from achieving perfection, he also loses the sense of want associated with them, and is left incapable of realizing contentment.

      Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim was a Swiss physician, alchemist and astrologer. (Better known as Paracelsus). In this scene they used part of his name (Theophrastus Bombastus) as the dwarf's first suggestion for a name, and they used the last part (Von Hohenheim) as the name they finally settled on for Slave 23.

    "A slave? You mean a person without any rights or freedom? Someone trafficked and dated as a possession?"
    I wonder if the Dwarf in the Flask was affectionate to Hohenheim because, just like him, the Dwarf didn't have a name and was treated as a possession despite being sentient.

    The way I LOST MY SHIT hearing Aaron Dismuke as Young Hohenheim the first time. Not only is he my favorite English VA, but the fact that he was Al in 03 but couldn’t reprise his role cause his voice dropped, so they gave him the role of a younger Hohenheim in FMAB is SO GOOD

    This is the Dwarf with all it's emotions. All 7 Human emotions. Maybe things could have gone differently for him if he realized it wasn't exactly the Dwarf that caused his homes death. The King wanted it, asked for immortality and the Dwarf had no position to deny it if it wanted freedom. Maybe they could have released all the other souls and kept only the Royalty between themselves and the Dwarf could have grown as a being staying with him

      That's one of the ironic points of his character. He was born with an incomparable amount of scientific knowledge, but, he had absolutely no emotional intelligence to go along with it.

    @Mr.Ambrose_Dyer_Armitage_Esq. Год назад +2

    The name "Von Hohenheim" is both German and aristocratic. "Hohenheim" roughly translates "a high home" or "home on high" whereas the honorific "von" means "from" and was used to denote someone of importance granted lands and titles by the Holy Roman Empire then later Prussian Junkers. Thus, the name "Von Hohenheim", though an incomplete surname, equates to something like "[he who's] from a high home". If you want to read nobility or heavenly important into that, as in a "heavenly home", as I do, you're more than welcome.

    Amestrians: Blonde hair and blue eyes
    What does that make Ed and Alphonse then? Hohenheim is an Xerxes, but Trish had brown hair and brown eyes, so what race of humans was she if she wasn't Amestrian? (She might be Amestrian, but I think it's just people with blonde hair and blue eyes who are full blood Amestrians)

      @myspacebarbrokenevermindif9892 5 лет назад +4

      MOONIE it's pretty arbitrary, the "blonde hair and blue eyes" idea fits with the parallels that Amestris and Nazi era Germany have.
      Ethnically, Germans believed blondies with blue eyes were "true Germans" while most of the population doesn't exhibit such traits, while at the same time you can be a citizen of Germany, but you're not "ethnically" German according to the ideals of the Nazi's.
      This sort of idea isn't ever implied or stated in FMA as far as i know, it's more of a headcanon.
