Wow. Just bloody bravo. All the good things about the ending have really already been said. The only thing I wish had been included

Spoiler:

was that Lan Fan had actually become Ling's empress or some indicator they were together,

but that's about it. I was kind of surprised at

Spoiler:

Ed and Winry actually cementing their romance like they did. I wasn't upset they didn't kiss or anything, especially since the photo in that ending collage pretty much implied they did wayyyyy more than that. And I'd guess Al and May became officially together too.

But for me too, the biggest jaw-dropper was how friggin tall Ed got. I think that was a really powerful way to show the readers that it's all over. And really moving that I could so easily see Hohenheim in Ed now.

But one thing confused me,

Spoiler:

What was up with Hohenheim's death? How did he just die? Plus, I know he wanted to die, and everything made sense until page 75, where apparently his last words were he didn't really want to die, right after he said he had a full life and it was enough. What the deuce was up with that?
