Definitely a very dark beginning for Volume 8. After the huge plot twist at the end of Volume 7 the rest of the fall out occurs in the start of Volume 8. It’s very dark and very sinister and while some pieces of the puzzle have fallen into place many more questions remain unanswered. I also thought the soldiers at the beginning wondering who wasn’t human (the chimeras and Greed or the alchemists and King Bradley) was very illuminating of where things are in the series right now.
The plot lightens up a bit after that as several new characters (and a whole new country!) gets introduced in the form of Xing. A country that uses a different form of alchemy that is more focused on the healing arts, and as a result thinks of alchemy in a very different way from the war-centric Amestris. Some very humorous scenes commence, especially the ones with the little girl Mei and her reaction on learning about Edward, the Fullmetal Alchemist.
Volume 8 was definitely a turning point in the series as new characters, new countries and a whole new viewpoint is brought into the manga. The moments of darkness offset with scenes of humor and witty banter that are true throughout the series really come to play in this volume. Another winning chapter in the Fullmetal Alchemist saga.

Como era de suponerse King Bradley sabe mucho más de lo que deja salir a la vista, y puede que sea uno de los principales involucrados en asuntos turbios del ejército (tal como lo fue la muerte de Hughes).
Así mismo, conocemos al “padre”, o séase, el creador de los homúnculos cuyos nombres son iguales que los pecados capitales; y no sé por qué, pero me da la espina de que él es el padre de los hermanos Elric, aquel que los abandonó cuando eran apenas unos niños.
En la segunda mitad del volumen conocemos a un par de extranjeros que también desean conocer sobre la alquimia o en su defecto, encontrar la piedra filosofal. Lo cual me parece interesante pues dependiendo del país donde uno resida, es la percepción que se tiene acerca de la manipulación y transmutación de elementos.
Fullmetal Alchemist continúa siendo una serie llena de comedia, acción y ciertamente, añade temas que no creo que sean tan amables para chiquillos de secundaria. Sin embargo, se vuelve tan adictivo que uno devora un capítulo tras otro.
Este volumen incluye los capítulos 30 – 33.

Each book I wonder why we keep adding new characters, but then the following volumes develop them, so I guess I can't complain! Definitely curious about what is up with the characters from Xing. Also, its always good to see Winry again!
