It was good for the most part, but now Ed is totally alchemy-less! Which (in case you didn't know) SUCKS!!!

I enjoyed the ending, I think that a positive ending is the way that FMA should go out. Considering how most of the series is filled with depression, having a "happy ending" is for the best.

Now having made such a stellar and well received series, Arakawa is going to have to really step up her game to top FMA.

Roy is like, super powered now. He saw the gate, didn't lose his eyes, and now is Fuhrer. Flame alchemy just by clapping. Heck, his atk power probably +9000 after seeing the gate. =)


Yeah, except that he's not Fuhrer ^^ Plus, his power was already huge. He can use his flame alchemy without having his gloves and any other kind of alchemy freely now.


He still needs a spark, though, and the gloves are more efficient than clapping for the flames.

But even still, he could also now do -defensive- alchemy, like he showed in 107, and block incoming attacks. Plus he's no longer useless in the rain, as he could easily perform non-flame attack alchemy like Ed and Al did.

True, I wonder why sensei decided to let greed die but let pride stay alive in his 'new' form. It'd be great actually if both Greed and Ling reigned over Xing lol


I think it's very appropriate and poetic that Greed ended up dying the way he did. I mean, he sacrificed himself to defeat Father for the greater good. If that's not the epitome of character growth for a guy named GREED, I don't know what is.

That was a nice story through and through. I actually thought that it might be like the other ending where the two are separated. It was suprisingly a nice ending. I especially like the last bit of words mentioning the fullmetal heart. also where ed and winry actually said it this time around. YAY! FMA im hoping for his next line of work.

... oh my god, i just did not read ALL of this.
it just dawned on me that i have read 108 chapters of this.

love the ending ♥

especially when alphonse got his body back. edward made a very, very wise decision! the end of greed was very noble of him. that definitely showed character growth! i hope that selim turns out well and not evil like his former self. it is like he is reborn.

i definitely can not wait for her new manga! i wonder what the story will be this time.

Well it was a good ending, but the second half of the chapter felt a bit rushed. The last page left a lot of questions, so we see a little kid and a baby... Do they both belong to Winry?

I'm going to miss FMA... :(

I honestly can't remember the details (a month between chapters will do that) but he traded a lot of whatever was fueling the immortality to help out in the final fight (for example, he protected everyone from a large blast from Father once or twice).

The ending was K, Okay~! This is the ending that every manga needs to have nowadays (right now, I mean!!)! I almost teared up because IT IS THE END. No more later chapters...

Ed may have been alchemy-less, but look on the bright side, HE'S ALIVE. And Al's body is back!

Sometimes, I curse the First FMA anime, but there is part of the manga that IS related to the FMA movie and The First Animated series. Ahem, Ages? Clothes? Later...

Great Job Arakawa-sensei. I'll be looking forward for your next work!
Although, I'll still like FMA (and Demons of Shanghai?).

A beautiful ending, maybe too happy for some tastes, but it was what I was expecting from this maga. This manga had a perfect storyline and a remarkable cast of characters.

Wait a minute, didn't Mustang say he wanted to get Havoc's legs back? He could have used the Stone on him instead of his eyesight. I would have preferred him staying blind, Havoc gets to walks, and become Fuhrer, while staying blind of course ( if they got robotic limbs i'm sure they could have gotten him contacts). Oh well...

Er, no, I think making artificial eyes is a little bit more difficult than a prosthetic limb.

Yeah, and on the other hand: it wouldn't be totally his style. ^^ At least in my eyes. :)

Great ending to a great manga :) Even though I just started getting into it lol 7 months but it feels like I have been reading it longer....but yea loved the ending but like others are saying I wish there was more Roy X Riza that would have made me happy but Ed's proposal to Winry was funny I was laughing when I read that..so I give this series a 10/10 cause it was so great :) And this chapter a 5/5 cause it was epic lol

Wouldn't you agree that Mei looks much older in the picutre? I am sure that it would take a few years for her to be taller than Winry. Also u can see the ring on Edward's finger, WinXEd marriage has become a reality!!!

The series takes place over 2-3 years, so give them some time... got married at 19, had kids at 21? seems reasonable to me.. :P

And at that time period (equivalent to just after WWI) it was pretty common for people, especially in the countryside, to marry early.

It's pretty safe to say he was able to see again because Dr. Marco had a philosophers stone and Roy agreed to change the Ishvalan policy.

Loved this ending :D Everybody wins!

Good ending... Not as epic as the 106 and 107 but it was an ending after all, can't have to much action.

Enjoyable ending, I did wish she expanded with the relationship of Mustang and Hawkeye a little more, that's just me though.

Yes, That would be the assumption. I'm sure the picture is definite in details. I mean, Mei is waaaay taller. Ed has more adultish feature to the face, and etc.

I was sobbing throughout the whole chapter, but I really lost it when Ed was up on the roof and staring at the landscape...I have no idea why then. Did anyone else notice that this is the scene that opens the last ED in Brotherhood? I had thought it was young Hoho, but now I see it was the grown-up Ed.

MeixAl! I don't care about EdWin, but that made me smile (: Also, Ling on his emperor throne is epic. I didn't think Greed would die though D: Too bad...I wish Arakawa kept him. Greedling was the most awesome combo ever. But I loved Ling even before he absorbed Greed, so I still love him as much.
The only thing I'm annoyed at is Mustang getting his eyesight back. That's a no-no, but I guess he needs his eyes to be able to appreciate Riza's beauty properly xD Or something. And it doesn't matter that they weren't shown as a couple per se, because they were so obviously canon from the start anyway.
Ed losing the ability to perform alchemy was something I wouldn't expect o.o But Al didn't lose his, right?
And finally, yay Al! SkeletAl didn't last long and he's the healthy young man he wanted to be since chapter 1. Okay, I'm tearing up again.
...but remembering Scar's mullet made me chuckle right now, so it's all good xD (Btw I like how we didn't learn his name in the end. No idea why, but I do.)
Havoc learns to walk again!
I also liked that Ed didnt let TripleH to sacrifice himself, and instead did something with his own might. Poor Hoho will finally get a rest.

...There are probably things I'll be adding to this comment...But for now I just want to say that I don't think any manga will be able to fill the void left after FMA (which I don't feel yet, but I'm sure I will next month D:). Even though I only started my adventure with FMA a year ago, and not nine years, like some of you, I consider myself an FMA fan to death 8D I will miss it.

P.S. ...apple pie 8D -sob-
