Heh, I'm only on chapter 69, because I went without internet access for a few days. That's why I'm anticipating book number eighteen so much, I want to see what's going to happen next! For some reason, I think something's fishy with the Ishbalan working for Olivier Armstrong; however, it could be just my imagination. Oooh~
I think it might pass 100 chapters, just because Arakawa can't simply wrap everything up that quickly and nicely. However, I could, and probably am, wrong :P |

Great chapter, loved the line from Mustang and hopefully Mustang does burn Envy to ash like he says he will. Every chapter this manga just gets better and more exciting, it is just too bad that it comes out monthly.

And so Kimbley is dead... and now i feel safe to say
Manga Kimbley >>>>> Anime Kimbley Manga Kimbley was more than just a killer, he had a whole philosophy to go by, and in the end his death ended up being truly epic. that was a real heart stopper when the lion pounced and took a bite out of his throat. as for the rest of the chapter... Yoki says what we were all thinking, he finally did something useful... i was half expecting him to die after that, because it would be pretty tragic that the one time he sticks his head out for others to play the hero that he winds up dying... Armstrong got a half-way decent moment with the way he skewered Sloth... love the exchange between him and his sister; "but you can't die, we haven't filed the paper work to leave the estate to me if you die"; "everything will go to mustang if i die, he is just one tiny iota more of a man than you"... or something like that... i love those two and finally mustang and envy... nice way for envy to reveal he was the one to kill Huges, and Mustang had an epic look on his face as he prepared for battled... |

Lol, Major Armstrong is such a caring brother.
Gen. Armstrong: By the way they've ordered that I be shot on sight. Maj. Armstrong: I cant have that! M.A.: We haven't finalized the paperwork leaving the Armstrong Estate to me in the event of your death! G.A.: Don't worry! If I die, the whole estate goes to Mustang! G.A.: He's just barely one fraction of an iota of a micron more preferable to an oaf like you! M.A.: How dare you be so rude to the man who just saved your life! I just LOL'd... I was like, "Um, guys... priorities? What about those soldiers and Sloth?" And page 44 was freaking AWESOME.

Yep, I'm still uneasy about frontier's trolls :P
Well, he's Spoiler for ?:
He's just too cool (even his "disappearance" from this world) The one I really don't like is Father... That guy is completely out of sense! D: |

Villains don't get much better than this. It's a shame we won't be seeing much more of him, since there's no way he's surviving this battle, but at least it will hopefully be an epic send off. I mean Roy vs Lust was a great battle, so Arakawa should have no problems delivering with this one as well. As for Kimblee, I just refuse to believe he's dead already. Too good of a character to waste like that. No final words, no character closure, no epic showdown with Scar, nothing. Not to mention this: Spoiler:
Did he ever reveal what that task was? I don't think so. I can see him pulling an Elder Toguro and gaining control of Pride for himself. Or at least find some way to get out. I mean Ed, Ling and Envy were all able to get out of an Homunculus, so I could see Kimblee doing it too. But if it really is the end for him, then it's a shame. He was a great villain and a much more in depth one than his generic bomber self in the anime. |
