"My thoughts on what might happen in chap 108:

"The one that RESEMBLES the Fullmetal Alchemist" (XD) is defeated, etc. But then what I think is that Hohenheim is going to give up his life - aka all his souls - and that should be equivalent trade for Al's soul"


Hohenheims job is done and he can finally die to be with his wife, maybe he really would sacrifice his philosophers stone to save Al.

Greed wanted friends.
How is that even greedy? Wanting friends is normal...
Pride didn't give shit about being a homunculus.
Which was why Kimbly immobilized him so that Ed to take him down
Wrath was a kind and very badass leader.
I can't really remember him being angry … about anything.
Envy killed himself because he couldn't stand to be pitied by a lesser creature.
That isn't envy now is it...
Lust died to long ago for me to remember her connection to her sin.
But from what I do remember she was more of a temptress rather than a slut.
Gluttony loved lust and was constantly hungry.
Hunger and gluttony are completely different things
Sloth did whatever he did because the alternative was tiresome.
Him being lazy has no connection with his sin.

The above mentiond sorta bothers me... It also annoys me that the quasi-invincible homunculus is getting his ass kicked. It just feels wrong and rushed.
In this chapter he hardly resisted and all of his awesome superpowers are gone.
(Yeah, I know it's because of his God, that he's containing...)

about
greed.....wanting somethin which u dont possess (pretty badly) is greed.....

wrath.....was wrath kind....was he a good leader...cmon... the fact that he said somethin nice about his wife , doesnt make him kind....

envy.....ever heard of SOUR GRAPES....compare that term with envy's talk and ull know wat envy is..

lust....extreme desire for aything....ANYTHING ...is lust...it doest have to be $e*ual

gluttony....this sin is a combination of greed and lust.....doesnt have to deal with food or hunger ONLY...

SLOTH.....sloth is supposed to be a quality in which a person wastes somethin which he possesses , by giving himself to laziness.....its actually...AN UNDUE WASTE OF SOMETHING HE/SHE POSSESSES

guess u got my explanation)))))))))


and wasnt hohenheim supposed to be invincible too......but uve answered urself on what is actually weakening TDFF....

So much epic, I'm not sure what to do with myself. I don't want FMA to end after all these years, but at the same time, I think I'm ready for whatever gets thrown at me.

All y'all ripping on the sins and how they "haven't lived up to their names," shut up. It was the idea that Homunculus ejected his emotions and implanted them in the sins. They exist so that he can be all cold and calculating and whatnot. That they have personalities and desires at all is enough.

I think more than one more chapter would be better to end the series (I get the distinct feeling it's going to be rather abrupt with only chapter 108 left), but we'll see what Arakawa-sensei gives us. I'm sure it'll be magical.

Bradley would act calm, but many times throughout the series he stated what angered him. He's just the type of man that can hold his anger in, which is good considering the important role he plays in Father's plan. I'm sure behind that smile there was a raging storm in the back of his mind.

That's all I feel like clarifying with your dislike of the seven sin characters. For the most part you just seem to have a different view on how the sins should act in general, anyway.

But I do agree with this. It does feel like Arakawa is rushing a bit. If you ask me it would have been better to show father hold his own at least a little more. I mean it's stupid of him to just stand there and take the attacks when he should know (how could he not?) that the philosophers stone will run out, which is part of the reason he's losing control of the 'god'. Father lost the respect I had for him for that evil move he made in the last chapter :(

@cnaw:
On the definition of the seven sins. I agree with [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_deadly_sins]this[/ur;] article on Wikipedia for the most part... I could be that Arakawa-sensei used another interpretation of the seven sins rather than the classical christian one.

What I meant with invincible, wasn't his power in particular. It's that he doesn't fuck around. He doesn't go explaining his awesome attacks. He steps on you and then he moves on. For him to just keep standing there and doing nothing but use up stone to block attacks rather than attacking or moving elsewhere to obtain more souls... Was disappointing IMHO.

@Monochrome:
Wrath wasn't even King Bradly's dominant trait. From what I remember he had more pride as a homunculus than his son/brother Selim Bradly, Pride, not that that's very difficult. But your probably right in that we have differing views on how the sins work. I would have liked to see the homunculi to act more like the sins they represent. Because if they don't; what's the point of naming them after sins?

As for the bottom part of your post. Word man! I couldn't have said it better myself.

Good point, when you think about how the characters were developed, Wrath was more prideful than Pride, and Pride was more wrathful than Wrath.

Remember that Wrath in Buddhism is less anger and is just a strong intention to destroy a particular object. Like Wrath's wrath towards Hugh's daughter at the funeral and how he destroyed a tank, WITH A SWORD. Also, wrath and pride is not mutually exclusive.

Pride was angrier (at times), since his pride in his abilities and status as a homunculus was being challenged. When Pride was scheming or acting in shadows or when he is winning, he had the kind of self-assurance that you'd expect from someone with a lot of pride in themselves.

5/5 doesn't quite do it justice?

I had a feeling Al would make a sacrafice, I'd do the same if I were in his metal shoes: I'm sure we all belive in Ed, he'll figure out the key to alchemy and bring Al back without having to make a sacrafice, that, or he'll lose his arm again.:p

I'm quite sad that this manga is coming to an end.

I think how I would explain that is that maybe he's having so much trouble controlling his god-thing that he's not finding it easy to move around and attack. Like maybe if he attacked he'd risk losing his own body or something. Just a theory...
Though, I do agree that it could have been paced better. I'm worried the last chapter will be liek all MASSIVE FIGHT SCENE and then no afterstory dealing with what happens to the characters once the battle is over. That would really disappoint me. I want to see how Mustang copes, at least, if his condition turns out to be permanent. And what happens to Al.

It's still greed, in its truest form.
You long for something others have and you don't, something you would take away by force if you could;d.

Remus_Lupa said:

He took pride in being a son and being what he is and because of that pride hs was defeated.

Remus_Lupa said:

Ever heard about passive anger? Judgmental anger?

You can be wrathful and angry without being hysterical about it.


Anger/wrath is not expression of mind, its state of mind.


Remus_Lupa said:

Envy killed himself because he couldn't stand to be pitied by a lesser creature.
That isn't envy now is it...

No. Envy killed himself because he ENVIED qualities human have he would never have. Pity was just another one of those qualities.

Remus_Lupa said:

Lust died to long ago for me to remember her connection to her sin.
But from what I do remember she was more of a temptress rather than a slut.


And? lust is not an "act" its a feeling, temptation,


Lust is "desire", be it sexual(most common usage) or goal-driven

Remus_Lupa said:

Gluttony loved lust and was constantly hungry.
Hunger and gluttony are completely different things



yet again you are stating your own opinion as "fact".

gluttony is expressed by hunger.

Do you think gluttonous people eat because they want to? They eat because they are HUNGRY for it.

In its purest form, its, yet again a desire, a hunger for food.

Remus_Lupa said:

Sloth did whatever he did because the alternative was tiresome.
Him being lazy has no connection with his sin.

Sometimes you do not even make sense.


"Sloth is defined as spiritual or emotional apathy,and being physically and emotionally inactive. Direct translation is carelessness."

That certainly defines Sloth character.

IMO, Father's apparent stalling was probably a bluff, hoping that the soldiers would be intimidated and stop attacking, giving him time to kill all of them and make them into philosopher's stones. Or perhaps, he was skimming so low above the energy he needed to contain God that he just couldn't risk it.
