I wish these were bigger volumes! I feel like I’m reviewing a couple chapters.
(wait—I guess I am, actually…)

The classic emotional scene happens in this book—which I guess I’m desensitised to now ☹️, this being my third time through the series—and more world building and mystery. It’s all very fun!

I absolutely adore Ed, Al, and all the characters in this series

Throughly enjoying reading the manga, especially in the Fullmetal Editions (so pretty).

I teared up in the scene after the funeral with Mustang and Hawkeye talking about in raining and you see that Mustang is crying, got me in the anime and got me in the manga.

Reading the manga knowing what happens to Hughes too, there’s so many moments that you’re like oh that’s salt in the wound, R.I.P Hughes.

Also, Winry really is a badass and I love her so much. Reading the manga I was thinking that Winry and Ed were set up to be together from the start, it was destined <3

I love the first few chapters in this volume, but the last few feel like filler (I know they aren't, but they feel like it)
