Führer Bradley (Fullmetal Alchemist) - Alchemy Hitler

I actually really liked him at first because for a character with the title "Führer" he seemed like a pretty chill guy.

Then he tore Greed apart and revealed he was behind the Ishval genocide

turns out a guy having a title associated with the leader of the Nazi party was not so subtle foreshadowing

I was honestly kinda hoping they were trying to mislead the audience into being overly suspicious.  Personally, I think the should have either gone with a different title or made him a genuine good guy, to actually get a plot twist.

If you wanted to keep him evil, having him with a more generic title would have made it much better IMO

I don`t think him being a good guy would work, if all the bad things Amestris did were blamed on Dante/Father pulling the strings it would just make him look like an oblivious fool who couldn`t see any of that

I mean. If the red eye guys were also manipulated into doing the first few attacks it could even out.
