I don't understand it. FMA's latest scanlation is out and no one has commented on it yet. I mean, it's not like it's probably the best chapter yet or anything. I mean, who cares about a flashback to Ishbal, more backstory on Hawkeye, explaining random stuff referenced months ago, seeing Armstrong in action, seeing Hughes happy, more info on the Philospher's Stone and alchemy, I mean...boring, right?

Right?

Well, about Hawkeye, there were only like two pages of her, so.

But more to the point, for me anyway, I didn't get the scanlation until yesterday because I was so busy with the move when it first came out, and then I figured it was past its peak. (This is the intarwebs, after all.) I did discuss the chapter a bit with someone on my friendslist when the raw came out, but of course that wasn't obvious. I guess I just didn't have much to say. I mean, there's only so much that can be deduced from a raw, and I'd been making these big insubstantial squee posts for the last several chapters when Hawkeye got naked and then turned out to have known Roy for longer than we'd suspected, so since all there really was to say was "uh...dude, Kimblee is kinda hot, and it's kinda freakin' me out here," and everybody else was already saying it...yeah. Well, I suppose there was more to say, in theory. For example, my friend and I decided that Hughes' wife's name was, in fact, Glacier Xergeey Gran Hughes. Long story. Also, yes, Armstrong.

Why don't you make a post on it?
