Man, I haven't heard Smile Bomb in at least a decade now, I forgot how good that was.

And yes, I'd highly recommend FMA if you've never seen it. One of the best of all time in my opinion.

opting for an instrumental theme from the composer of the rest of the show score definitely keeps it tonally consistent and all the heavier once watching the whole thing

I can see how that would be a huge benefit! Colour me intrigued!

Once I listened to the OP for Gurren Lagann and immediately wept tears of manly inspiration. It doesn't normally happen but I was feeling vulnerable.

That one is so 2000s, in both sight and sound. It's like an Alanis Morissette video!

Well let's just say that World Masterpiece Theater seldom had any happy endings and this one is the saddest IMHO.
