teddogI found more easy-to-access scanlations for Fullmetal Alchemist. I'm finally caught up to date.
And I'm now certain that I perfer the manga to the anime. The plots have really drifted away from each other, with the anime starting to wind down. The manga has way too many loose ends right now to finish right away: Al's new skills, Pride and the lack thereof, Scar's little life mission and characters from other countries showing up. Unless, something stupid happens, like Gluttony eats the whole world and everything ends.
As an added bonus, Roy and his posse are so much more badass in the manga. The fangirls whine about the lack of Ed action, but I've prefered the military gang since I first saw them in the original opening. The last few chapters have brought me much enjoyment and chapter 38 made me VERY HAPPIES! :-D
First, the greatest idea ever: placing Falman (Farman? I'm not sure of the exact spelling) in charge of babysitting Barry or rather, Barry's soul attached to a suit of armour. This leds to some of the funniest events in the series. There's ought to be an Odd Couple-ish spinoff based on this idea alone.
Roy wasted Ross. Now that was unexpected. Speaking of which, where's Breda? He's the only one in the inner circle unaccounted for. Roy and Havoc are with Lust, Falman is covering up crap, Fury was ordered to fall back with Black Hayate and Riza is somewheres... ::checks:: down the hallway from Roy and Havoc with Al.
It is honestly breaks my poor brain to see how much FMA slash there is. Nothing else needs to be said about the topic.
