I don't remember that tattoo on Riza's back or Roy being trained by her father. Not saying it didn't happen just saying i don't remember it, can anyone confirm it from the manga?

The aorta is in the chest, Hawkeye had a sliced jugular.
Indeed.. my knowledge in veins and arteries fails me in the most silly times.
-
did a new episode of brotherhood air last night? i'm surprised the raw isn't up yet?
edit: never mind. guess someone was enjoying sleeping in :)
-
LKSJDFSKDFJD NEXT EPISODE. sldkfjsldkf the train fight. I have high hopes for this. _
-
I finally caught up to FMA. If this is currently the finale, this would be the best finale ever.
-
Again, plain boring episode, but what did I expect… next one is gonna be gold, that train fight is superb and it leads to happens of Briggs. And and... yeah, that. AWSUM coming up. I m always so weak against her kind.

Yes, all that is from the manga.
-
I still haven't caught the episode, was it just the stuff with Roy's master?

yea i had caught up too, and do hope it ends cause it is great manga and sometimes by being too long things become bad and would like it to finish strong.
but at same point the RPG in me still wants them to escape this so they can go out and learn more about this eastern alchemy and become stronger and awesome in their skills.

lol leveling up outside the castle, huh.

FMA BH is teh sex.

I'm sure you know, but Yorki has Franky's and Paninya has Nami's (which is very fitting, considering they're both thieves).

I actually did not know that. I was so amused at the Gundam 00 VAs in the show that I forgot to check everyone else sdlkfjsldfkjsdkf.
Kazuya Nakai's voice just reminds of Zoro no matter what. I had the same problem while watching Sengoku Basara.
-
Catching up on the Anime right now… Apparently Kimblee has Spiral Energy. Everytime I see his eyes I'm thinking, "Kamina?"
-
We also have Crocodile for Buccaneer, and Don Krieg for Sloth. Welcome change of pace from all of the Gundam 00 seiyuus, certainly, even though that was not how I imagined Miles to sound at all.
Really liked the backgrounds for Briggs, 'specially the exterior shots.

…Kimblee's eyes remind you of Kamina? I'm not sure if I really understand what you mean by that...

Spiralssssssss~~
!
-
Those aren't spirals, they're concentric circles.
If anything, Kimblee is a Mihawk. :p
-
Plus, Aokiji is Scar's brother and Kizaru is Hohenheim. …Wow. I never knew there were so many VA's from OP in Brotherhood.
Anyway, the episode seemed pretty good, but the sub I saw was filled with grammar mistakes and even switched over to Portuguese a few times. Is there anywhere I can see it with a better translation?

Oh yeah lmao my bad. You're right. I like the idea of Kimblee being related to Mihawk though. Like his crazy ass little brother/cousin.
-
You know, after catching up with the manga, I have no interest in watching Brotherhood now… I guess I can thank the adaption for making me impatient to read further into the story.
Maybe I'll just watch my favorite bits.
-
Viz gets another cookie for using more NOMNOMNOM sound effects in Vol. 21 (even for Gluttony!), and for Ed's ''Is that your teen angst?'' line when he sees all of Pride's shadow tentacles and stuff. I don't care what the original line was, the potshot made me laugh. As did the omake where Al discovers that being the story's hero provides you with ''Non-stop sexy times'' because it's true. An anime/manga protagonist usually does end up being on the receiving end of a good chunk of a series's fanservice.

Read the new chapter:
! Oh shit poor Roy.

Read the new chapter:
! Oh shit poor Roy.
! just read as well and it doesn't seem like fma is going to end any time soon. not sure if the whole damn country is going to be turned into a sacrifice and just those small group there be sole survivors, cause they just seems insane.
! but with alphonse refusing his body right now makes me think we have plenty left. i was always thinking that the brothers were going to learn more about this eastern alchamy, but it seemed like the end was coming. but now with refusing his body, i can see this not being the ending right now. plus now we have some interesting story to watch of a blind commander.
! or has the manga author stated it is close to ending? -
danzo, mustang needs spear eyes!
-
mustang should talk to danzou about getting some replacements. he has a few to spair
-
Well, crap.
I'm impressed that Bradley is still trucking. I get the feeling that he and Scar are going to end up taking each other out though. Selim's still hanging around too, but it doesn't look like he's got much longer to go.
As for Roy, well, that is pretty awful. I wonder if this is where the first anime got the idea of the patch from. Come to think of it, the first anime did kind of incorporate some of the manga-exclusive stuff towards the end of its run, like Roy killing Bradley there the same way he killed Lust in the manga, and Roy trying to tell the head of the military that the Homunculi were involved with the government was similar in both versions too… Hmm...
That deformed fetus-ball think was kind of grotesquely humorous.
just read as well and it doesn't seem like fma is going to end any time soon. not sure if the whole damn country is going to be turned into a sacrifice and just those small group there be sole survivors, cause they just seems insane.
At the beginning of Vol. 21, which starts off the Promised Day arc, Arakawa does mention that the story is entering its final stretch.
-
Shit shit motherfucking holy shit GRAAAAAAAAAAAAH.
That was just… so insanely WRONG. >_<
-
just read it.
i am heartbroken.
-
Wow, that was crazy. Poor Roy. And poor Alphonse having to throw away his chance at getting his body back. The Scar/Bradley fight is looking to be good though.
-
This… left a bad taste in my mouth. A very bad one.
-
I agree . U_U
-
Did popularity polls save Bradly or something? I thought they all were going to go bye bye…
-
Oh Roy Mustang. So poetically cruel. I love it.
Alphonse's body wasn't very direct in that last page, but daayyuumm. Talk about ominous.
Finally, it's going to be nice to see Bradley go out with a bang.
-
Damn, can't wait to see Bradley kicking ass again, now only without his eye powers.
-
Truth really fucked Roy over. He's basically useless now since his fire attacks require eyesight. I guess the way he'll get around it is by Riza acting as his eyes and helping him coordinate attacks.
-
Oh Roy i feel sad now :(
A great chapter.
-
Good chapter, can't beleive i never noticed the whole punishment thing with the 'door of truth' that it takes away what you want most. Looking forward to more scar vs bradley, i don't think either of them will survive
-
Happy End is cancelled.
Arakawa never ceases to surprise.
-
Ah come on guys. Mustang's obviously gonna get his sight back along with Al's body, Ed's limbs and Izumi's internal organs and it's gonna be one big happy, sappy ending.
-
Optimistic view is certainly a value. However, it can fail rarely.
Happy End is cancelled. Just love the sound of it.
-
Al would probably starve to death immediately after getting his body back.
-
This manga will have a sad ending.
A happy ending?!? Not likely. -
And why is that? Heck the entire point of this manga to begin with is for the Elric brothers to regain what they've lost. Sure this series can have some sad moments but I doubt Arakawa isn't going to give a big, old happy ending.
-
Ok there will be a happy ending, but not for Ed and Al.
I don't know i have the feeling they aren't gonna get their happy ending, but i could be wrong.
But i know for sure it will be a awesome ending, even if its happy or sad. -
I think the most likely outcome for this manga is "bittersweet." I don't think Arakawa's mean enough to leave her characters completely miserable, but if we stick with the general theme and tone of the manga, I don't see a 100% happy ending either.
The only way I could see this ending with 100% Happy Happy is the fact that alchemy is all about "equivalent trade." Maybe the characters REALLY have to suffer if they want that happy ending.
! And this isn't the first time Truth stole someone's eyes. Remember that side story about the blind alchemist?
-
Well it only stole Mustang's optical receptors or something vital to seeing, but not to "being pretty", I went over "what the truth could take from him" several times while I read the chapter, and arived at the eyes most of them, but I always ignored it because of the blind alchemist.
I don't care about what the others lost, Alphonse is the one that deserves unconditionaly his body back, Ed can be happy with his fake limbs, It is hard to not being able to have own childrens but there are childrens without parents, the future doesn't need to be seen to forge it and inmortality is an illusion. Al has had it worse since day one, and even now that he knows how hard it will be to live in a frail body like that, he keeps going forward.
-
hey, now that Roy's blind, can we call him Roy Charles?
