The END of Fullmetal Alchemist ...

Yesterday I´ve finally finished FMA.
So, what I want to do now is talk about the series and also about the END !!!~
I liked the series from the very start ^-^ although I started to watch it only recently :/ At first I thought it´s SiFi or has something to do with mechas - and THAT´s so NOT my genre >_>
BUT then I saw so many people going all crazy over it, so I thought why not try ? :)
AND that was absolutely the right choice !!! I´ve really seen a LOT of animes up to now (as you can see here), but THIS was really a good one !!
Ok, ok everyone has different tastes, nee ? But speaking for me, I think this is now really on of my favourite animes ever (and that means something ! ;))
The compostion of seriousness and slapstick is BRILLIANT and the soundtrack is beyond this world ! You have to adore FMA just because of the great opening and ending songs, right ?
Ed´s seiyuu does such a great job ! I LOVE HER voice !!! ~♥ [Romi Paku ~ She´s also the voice of Nana O_O]
And not speaking of Junichi Suwabe the voice of Greedo (I instantly recognized Atobe´s voice ~♥ XDXD a reason to LOVE Greedo, no ?? :P)
SPOILER WARNING:
There are a LOT of spoilers from here on, so if you´ve NOT finished watching FMA yet or if you DON´T want to know what´s happening next: DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER !!
Aah~ I already knew that a lot of people were not satisfied with the end of FMA. So I was expecting the worst !!!!~ All the time I was guessing WHAT probably could happen~
I wasn´t expecting THIS !
Ok, first of all there was a lot going on in the last few eps, right ? BUT I didn´t care much about Roy and Co. because Ed is my favourite character, so I thougt: "As long as Ed is alright, it´s fine with me." (Yeah, I´m a bastard I know :P)
So, when Ed was dying on the other side of the gate (when he was not in his own body XD), I started to cry (because like I said, I knew that the end would be not very nice x_x).
After Ed died in HIS world, too, I was going to explode - I didn´t want to believe it - just like Al, too ;______________________; so when Al sacrificed himself, I was kind of happy .___.
Ed was ALIVE and he had his ORIGINAL body ;_; his arm and his leg ... YAY \^.^/ ..... but I knew that it´s not alright this way, I like Al, too, and he has suffered soooooooooo much, hasn´t he ??
And knowing Ed, I knew what would happen next .... *sigh*

So~ ....the last few minutes of the anime were horrible, weren´t they ? ;___; .... They showed Roy and Co. being alright .. they showed Al being alive and back to his original body (although he has lost his memories of the last 4 years) .. but what the hell is going on with ED ??????? x_____X ... That was really exciting ! :/
Nyah~ seeing him alive, was the most important thing for me :) ... it´s too bad that he has lost his body parts again ;_; ..... on the other hand he´s at an advantage with his auto-mail in 'our' world I think :/ ..... plus he´s with his father ! And he´s trying very hard to get back to his world, an I´m sure he´ll make it ^-^
On the other side: even though Al doesn´t have any memories, he wants to learn more about Alchemy to be able to see his brother again ~ I don´t know if he´s still a bit of memories left or just this feeling that THIS might be the best way to find his brother BUT with both of them working so hard, there is NO way they couldn´t meet each other again, right ?????
So the end is still kind of a happy end !! Regarding the dark atmosphere all through the anime, the end could have been MUCH harder, more sad and whatnot !!!
But still I have to digest this end first :/
I´m going to watch the movie soon, I´ve seen that it´s taking part AFTER the anime, so Al and Ed still seem to be seperated.
Oh man how I love this series ~♥
Two so young boys suffering so much, seeing so many horrible things, being forced to do horrible things and so on.
The Homunculus are very interesting, too. Especially Lust, I´d never imagined that I would like her some day :) Oh, and as mentioned before Greedo is GAY ahr ... great :)~
The president was a strange one, I always thought ENVY is the president ... nya~ stupid mEh >___>
I always thought that there should be a Homunculus with Al´s body, too. I thought maybe it´s Envy XD .... ah, if you get more info in the movie about this, PLEASE don´t tell me yet x___X;;
I was a bit dissapointed that there´s another side of the gate ... and that it´s our world (Yay Ed is in Munich, so he´s in MY country harharhar x__X ....but unfortunately 'some' years too early *coughs* XD)
I still don´t get Roy´s actions that well ... perhaps that´s the reason, why he´s not one of my favs
I LOVE Al and Ed´s sensei XDXD SHE´S sooooooooooo rocking the series XD~
Al was going on my nerves when he tried to stop his brother from killingtheir mother that damn Sloth Homunculus thing x__X !!!!~ I know that it must be hard, but still ... ARGH !
Worst case scenario:
Al has finished his studies and in order to be able to meet up with his bro, he´s searching for the Philosopher´s Stone, AN' HERE WE GO AGAIN~ XDXD .... *coughs*

That was the teariest scene of the whole anime ~ for me ;___; ... I so cried when I saw this ;___; uwaaah++~
Two brothers, two worlds, two different methods, but ONE goal ;___; (hai, hai I´ll stop right now ;__;)
German:
Weiß viellicht jemand, ob der FMA Manga in Deutschland schon draußen ist ? Wenn ja, dann werd ich mir den AUF JEDEN FALL zulegen x___X~ *süchtig is*
Mwaha~ ich frag mich, seit wann mir 'blonde' Charaktere gefallen *zu Ed schiel* XD nya egal *___*
Isch muss Icons machen ;___;
Ok, I think that´s all I wanted to say~
If anyone wants to discuss this or tell me his/her thoughts about the end or the whole series, PLEASE go ahead :) I´m really looking forward to hear it ^-^V
and excuse me for my bad English x_x

Aw~ well I DO like j-pop/-rock very much, so OF COURSE I ADORE the op/ed themes ^-^;; Yeah, well I think EVERY anime that is longer than 13 eps has its 'filler' episodes which are .... very unsubstantial then o__O; BUT there were very few in FMA. When I remember right I liked ALL the eps, there weren´t any annoying ones to me.
I cannot compare the English with the Japanese version, I´ve only seen the Japanese one. And I ALWAYS like the Japanese versions more (perhaps because my fandom grew up with Japanese originals XD) !
In my opinion NOONE else can scream, cry or hiss like Japanese voice actors do ^^
Don't you agree that there are some qualities of FMA that just sceam "FANDOM!" at you?
*nods* HELL YES~ !!!!!♥♥
I love Elric!kyoudai. I really do, with all my heart and soul. So the end was incredibly, "WTF? What the-?? There need to be together....T_T"
Yeah YEAH !! Because what´s the whole series about if not about THE RELATIONSHIP between those two ;___; But they´re only living in different worlds, none is dead. That´s why I´m not disappointed ^-^
Jaa~ I´m curious about the manga´s content ^-^~
I have the scanlations up to chapter 53 or so, but haven´t read it yet. That´s why I want to know if it´s out in Germany already ;__; THEN I would buy it immediately OF COURSE~

Wow, you think that too? I thought I was just an oddball or something. In ep. 51 when Envy speared Ed through, I was all, "Oh, the English is never going to be able to make sounds like that. That's almost trademarked by Romi. XD"
I LOVE not only the spoken lines, but the way the characters cry, scream, breathe, etc. etc. etc. in the Japanese version. I wish some of the little qualities didn't get lost in translation. T_T
Have you/are you seen/going to see the movie, too?
no subject
Hell YES !!! That´s just the truth :)
I figured it out when I was watching Dragonball 8 years ago ^^; I watched the English, Japanese, Italian and German version and there was SUCH a big difference !!! Ok the Italians can scream good, too and some of the English and German voice actors were not too bad, BUT they will never be as good as Japanese seiyuu ^-^V
I will ALWAYS prefer the Japanese version even if I have to watch it without subtitles -___________-
without understanding a thing XDHAI ! I´ve just returned from watching the movie now ;__________________;
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH !! I don´t know what to say ! Somehow the story was kind of stupid on the other hand it was SO great ;_; ...
BUT I don´t like the end this time for some reason :/ ..... because now it´s not really an open end anymore ... it seems as everything is set and will not be changed anymore ;_;
BUT I don´t want the story to be continued ^^;; I think nothing good would come out of that o__O; ....
Uwah @_@ I have to go to bed now
and cry over the movie XDno subject
