Having caught up with the last four or five chapters of the FMA manga...


1) Wow, the manga got a whole lot more interesting when Winry left. :D

2) Needs more Ed. Yes, I know it's focused almost exclusively on Ed these past few chapters, but that's still not enough. He's still the best, brightest, most shining thing about this series. More Ed plz arakawa! And more Al. More Al and more Ed. And more Al and Ed. All the above.

3) Just when I think I might start to warm up to one of the Xingians (Ling) another of them (Mei) has to go and irritate the piss out of me. Go away, ninja people. Give us more Elrics.

4) Envy's true form, huh?

I like it.

Also, anyone who ever tried to argue ed/envy on the basis of manga characterization, because manga!envy was less of a psychopathic freak than anime!envy...

More Envy!! :D Hooray for psychopathic freaks! XD I do think I like manga!Envy's personality more... his true form just totally rocks.

And damn, Ed is so much hotter in the manga! Less of an angsty bitch and more of a kickin' badass!

Frankly, I still think anime Ed is hotter than manga Ed just by virtue of Romi... but there's no more anime Ed to be had. Roll on the manga Ed! :D

Cracky, yes, but very interesting! At least I can sorta see where the Ling/Ed shippers are getting it, since prior to these few chapters they hardly ever even TALKED.

I have decided to start shipping manga!Envy/manga!Ed based on chap 51. Because you can never have too much monster!rape.

Out of curiosity, what did Mei do to piss you off?

(Amusingly, I've only kept up with manga canon through personal posts like this in people's LJs. XDDDDDD It makes me wonder if I should actually read the whole damned thing. O.o)

Interfered with Ed and Al's double clap for great justice just at a time in the manga when I was most pissed off at Scar and wouldn't at all have minded seeing his hair get transmuted into the flagstones. And while I have a healthy respect for humor, somehow seeing Ed and Al get beaten up by a little girl does not improve my mood. Also spent the next few chapters whining over her pet bear.

3. It's not Ling's fault Mei irritated you. Come on Mikke, love the Ling. Love him! *dangles Ling and oreo cookies*

He _whined_. And made Ed carry him!

The one thing that really got me about chapter 51 Envy was the fact that the little bodies on him were saying "Don't look at me." Angst? Possibility of angst? Possibility of Ed/Envy? Ufufufu.

This gets the manga!Ed icon. w00t XD

1. You know, I don't hate Winry nearly as much in the manga, but she's still useless and holds up exciting!plot.

2. Oh yes. Oh dear gawd yes. Methinks I still like anime!Ed more, but manga!Ed is a whole different kind of love (dude, like, they're so the same person XD;;;). Wah. Both Elrics, both mediums, so much love.

3. Mei's kind of useless right now, and I'm really wondering what the heck her function is, but I'm sure Arakawa-sensei has... things up her sleeve. I thought her crying was too cute though X3 Didn't care too much for Ling or Ran Fan in the beginning, but I'm warming up to them.

4. Envy makes me hawt. Everything about him. I was kind of disappointed with manga!Envy because he seemed to get his butt whooped a lot, but damn, chapter 51 was so much Envy luvin' ZOMG. I need mees some EdxEnvy tentacle luv now XD Wah. The crazies. The dismember'Dies *squeeee*

Whoa, I meant to write "they're so NOT the same person." How did that happen? XD;;;;

This is very important resource material. We now officially have it confirmed that Envy can do not only nonhuman, but nonanimal forms. (Anime Envy never shows that he can.) Yes, that means TENTACLES ARE IN STORE!

guilty ^_^

...guilty. And that was before chapter 51, cut me some slack! Reading that chapter, YES he is a psychopathic freak, but he's got lotsa insecurities there! His psycho-evilness is obviously a compensation for the fact that he hates himself.
And I still like Ed/Envy better than Roy/Ed for the reasons that can be seen in this fic: http://archive.toukakoukan.com/yaoi/title/rustwithintheirthroats.html
On a different note: happily, manga!Al is less of a pushover ^__^
