Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

The OG FMA was made while the manga was still coming out, they caught up with the source material and went a different way with the story. Brotherhood is what the creator intended for the anime to be. I always recommend Brotherhood over og if someone has never seen FMA.

I usually recommend people watch 2003 FMA up until episode 9 or so, and then switch to Brotherhood once it reaches the divergence point. Brotherhood is absolutely amazing and one of my favorite shows of all time, I consider it a comfort show that I'll occasionally rewatch because of how much I love it, but it DOES kind of rush through the early parts that were already done in order to get to the good stuff.
