I've Read It Now

Discuss -- but only if you have read it or want to be spoiled

Pages 100-109--AVOID. At least we don't see them kiss. You see a hair ruffle and a hug after Ed laughs his ass off at her for telling him she loves him. I HATE her for wearing Trisha's  hairstyle.The rest of it is a little too pat, but the scene where the brothers leave the gate together is beautiful. Seeing the little bastard from the flask meet Truth was great.  Greed is the one who finishes Father off in the end. Al finally gets some of Gracia's apple pie. Looks like Marcoh gives Roy  the chance to get his sight back with the last philosopher's stone--but I don't think he takes him up on it.  ...I think. NO ROYAI!!!! I'm dancing with joy over that!! We knew we'd lost the Ed/Win battle but ROY's VIRTUE IS INTACT!!!

YAY for no Royai!! :)

BOO for stupid EdWin!! :(

ugh I'm so disappointed with the hyperhet. Did she REALLY have to throw that Parthian shot in there? I mean, it would have been fine with just the two of them hugging that one time or whatever the fuck. But REALLY, Arakawa-sensei? Not that we didn't see it coming, but... still. It so sucks when one of your favorite series EVER EVER EVER ends with goo and hyperhet. It's JKR all over again. :(

That having been said, I'm equally glad she didn't kill everyone off. I was worried for a minute there, when both Ed and Roy looked like they might be in the mood to sacrifice themselves for Al. I squeed like a little girl to see human!Al again...! That was wonderful. And how cool that Roy and Olivier BOTH got high positions in command of different areas, instead of making one of them Fuhrer? That surprised me. And Scar and Miles finally meet and become fellow soldiers - AWESOME!!

But yeah, the EdWin really puts a damper on everything. I was hoping for a better ending to one of my dearest fandoms, but you can't have everything, I suppose. *sigh*

Agh, and now we have to watch 100-109 happen live in nauseating color in Brotherhood... *makes wretching noises* Dammit, way to ruin the end of the manga AND the anime... *clutches her copies of the first anime*

Not me--I've decided NOT to download that ep. I've seen enough.
The one thing I DID think was interesting was that last page of Ed with his suitcase boarding a train alone...makes you wonder just HOW much his is like Hohenheim

There should be a caption: "WTF was I thinking, I'm totally in love with Roy!"

All aboard!
