Why must things be different?

I'm so confused. I mean, I know the FMA Manga should really be the one set in stone but...since I made the stupid choice of watching the anime first, the differences confuse me. Alot.

For instance, Rose. In the manga, there's an accent over the 'e', so shouldn't it be pronounced "Ro-say"?

And they said the state alchemist pocketwatch was gold, too....=

Not only that, but even the homunculi are different! I'm not sure how much I can say without giving away a spoiler so...I'll just shut up.

Ah, well. At least Brotherhood will be better~! I'll just go watch it on YouTube right now! ^w^

Sakura:...um....actually, Miss Saki....you can't do that because the videos an tell you're in America....and you can't watch them....>>

Me:....no.....No....NO! NOOOOOOO!!!!!! -sinks to knees and sobs under a dramatic spotlight-

Sakura: Aw...poor momma. D:

Zakuro: Tch. Baby. =3=
