What I Liked:
-Izumi stealing from Briggs for a month
-Major General Olivia Armstrong. Oh, she's epic with her sword and her hair and realistic body type and killing her superior and not leaving her subordinates behind.
-Scar. Oh, Scar. "I am the ooze born from the gaping wound that was Ishbal. I neither pray to god nor appeal to him. Ooze deserves no forgiveness. And I will burn until I'm left for dead in a ditch like the scum I am." The only way you could get more awesome is if Lust was around to snuggle up to you.
-Pride and Riza and how goddamn creepy he is.
-Roy plotting.
-The belief that you can stop the cycle of violence and do not need to forgive or forget to do so.
I keep finding series that are doing what a previous series I loved tried and failed to do. It makes me feel mean spirited but must be said (or, well, I'm going to say it). This is the people who have been hurt deciding to end the violence. This is exactly what Naruto is trying to do, only HE is asking the people who have been hurt to let it go. Putting his principals were his mouth his would be letting them kill Sasuke and not retaliating.
What I Didn't Like:
-At Briggs, the epic fortress where only the strong survive there is Major General Olivia.... and not one single other female. (And Olivia doesn't count as female because she's so scary.)
-Winry is really, really feeling like the girl at this point. Even as she demands to me more involved. I think that is an inescapable consequence of the two epic brothers and The Girl trope which I am so. fucking. sick. of.
