I watched a couple episodes of Brotherhood when it started and then I totally failed to keep up with it, but I am definitely going to get back into it.
I forgot about Rose! She has a moment of awesome in the original anime, but is mostly portrayed as the perpetual victim. Probably the biggest fail in the series when it comes to women. Ed meets alternate!Rose in the movie and I don't remember much about her, except that I didn't particularly care for her.
And there's Gracia, who doesn't do much but be wife and mom, but given the other characters I don't feel that's as problematic as it otherwise would be.
