Gotta change my pajamas

- The Greed-Ling-Bradley fight is badass. That's all.
- I liked Ling saying hi to Falman. It's a bit impressive/strange, however, that he and Greed could be switching so fast and so often in this chapter. Like, in the next line he was Greed again.
- Seriously, how the fuck is Buccaneer still alive :O
- Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! <3 So awesome.
- "That's King Bradley" "O_O!"
- FUCK YEAH GRANDPA IS PISSED! more like hurt her arm to uselessness, but doesn't matter, I'm all for you being worked up
- That said, hurry up, Lan Fan! I want the four of them to bring down Wrath together.
- Awwwwww, Brosh so cute ;^; I still LOL'd at the manly tears and Ross' whut face because I'm a horrible person.
- OH MAN, I wouldn't want to be stared like that by Izumi and Olivier. NIGHTMARE FUEL XD I also laugher again, like the horrible person I am.
- I find interesting that the old guy mentions "all is one" precisely in front of Izumi but meaning a completely different thing. You can tell then that Arakawa planned stuff in advance. But what it is (Izumi being in that battle, or the island training, or that guy's explanation), it's hard to say. Which is awesome, anyway :D
- FLIP FLOP SMACK. Who needs weapons of mass destruction?
- Izumi: better than Kamina. Also more GAR. Sorry kids, but I'm not going to argue this.
- I also liked Riza thanking Scar.
- CREEPY OLD GUY NOES

I also did that eneagram quiz last night and got Type 4. I'm just too lazy to retake it to get the html.

And apparently LJ's location detector believes I'm in Asturias. Um, a bit more to the west?

Buccaneer is one badass motherfucker.

LMFAO ALSO BROSH THAT WAS A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT I FORGOT HOW MUCH I LOVED THEM

Trudat. Oh, now your icon made me realize that Buccaneer would be perfect One Piece character material.

most def, he fits right in on the "never say die"

Fuu was so epic, seriously (as was Buccaneer, which is how he's still alive). I can't wait to see the Xing gang together to kick some arse. <333

And yes, the Denny/Maria reunion was so awesome, I loved it. ♥

I doubt it'll happen next month, but I hope she pops in on October perhaps.

I'm a bit sad Maria wasn't as effusive as Denny, though. When I'm not laughing.

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY.

Actually, "my thoughts exactly" goes for the whole post. (Except the Kamina thing because I only know the guy through icons.)

We only laugh because they're fictional and can't hurt us. But seriously, if I were that guy I would've died of a heart attack.

I was thinking that same thing. I guess that says a lot of how strong Ling's willpower is and how much he's affected Greed.

Fuu kicks so much ass jdfhj;jhdf. But yeah, in FMA: OLDER = BADASSER, it seems. And Izumi was awesome in this, I loved what she said to the soldiers.

I flipped my shit when I saw Creepy Guy. Creepy Guy is CREEPY. Seriously, he makes me nervous and WTF is he on about.

There's that, and now I'm thinking Greed might also have his defenses low on purpose for that fight. He did tell Bradley that Ling had taught him how to fight the asshole, so it's not farfetched they could take turns, and Ling would take over if he saw an attack before Greed. You know, the ki senses tingling and stuff.

I could live with more old badass people in my fandoms ♥ Izumi was epic this month.

Seriously what the fuck is he.

Dude, if after going twice to Oviedo and Gijón you couldn't assimilate me, I think no one will! *keeps being a 'sudaca' with no loyalties, as usual*

but Oviedo is THE MOST EVIL CITY ON EARTH, no wonder you don't want anything to do with us.

I like Kamina but I will not argue with you. Izumi is definitely more GAR! XD

I think she's a par on GARness with Claire from Baccano!, and he was the one who killed Saigar.

I definitely want to start making icons for this series.

I'm somewhat glad and somewhat disturbed that I wasn't the only one who had no idea who the creepy old man was. (You see, I still haven't read a number of chapters in the middle of the series, and I was wondering when he had showed up before.) Seriously, what in the world is he?

It really was strange how quickly Ling and Greed were switching places; I wonder if that's going to come into play by the end of the series. I certainly can't see the current situation with the two of them continuing for much longer.

Also, Fuu's amazing for being as spry as a twenty-year-old. AND BUCCANEER, FOR TAKING A SWORD TO THE STOMACH JUST TO DISARM HIS OPPONENT.

I do remember him being in the background of a couple of other creepy scenes, but since I don't have my volumes with me I can't point out where. He was during Bradley's homunculification, I think. Let me check on that.

I have a theory that Greed might've lowered his defenses for that fight in particular, so Ling could help him. However, it's true that after he remembered the Devil's Nest folks he's unstable so it might be that.

I LOVE how kickass minor adult characters are in this manga. Seriously.

ETA: Okay, I've found two scenes with Creepy Guy.
- the whole Bradley flashback (http://www.onemanga.com/Full_Metal_Alchemist/53/04/)
- Kimblee's magical recovery (http://www.onemanga.com/Full_Metal_Alchemist/67/07/)
And there might be more, but these are what I could recall.
