Today, the creator of Fullmetal Alchemist turns 52! Happy birthday, Hiromu Arakawa!

(I died while making this I swear also I'm just taking screenshots and then making it into detailed art in my style)

(my doodle style versus my bored style is very different)

(it took a long time to encourage myself to post these on here cause this wiki fr serious asf to me)

I have bought 4 of the boxes and opened tons of packs i only managed to get obe signed card but you typically get at least 6 pulls per card.

I loved it all, the only thing I wished happened would have been for Ed to have changed Winry's earrings into an engagement ring, since it would have been cute, and we never saw him give the earrings back to her, unless you count the fact that she was wearing very identical looking earrings in the timeskip.

I just finished brotherhood yesterday :D ill prob finnish the manga after i finnish the soul eater and kaiju no 8 manga.

I think it's a really nice, wholesome feature, so I have enabled "Thanking" on this wiki!

For those that don't know, that means that when you go look at a page's Edit History, you will be able to click a little heart button to give Thanks to whoever made the edit.

So feel free to spread the love! Thank away!

Her name has been spelt "Rosé" on this wiki for awhile now. In Japanese, her name is spelt ロゼ (Roze) which is pronounced "ro-zay" like the wine and not "Rose" like the flower (which is spelt ローズ, "Rozu" in Japanese).

I'm not questioning the pronunciation. The pronunciation, in Japanese, is definitely "ro-zay" like Rosé wine.

But I actually can't find any source for the SPELLING with the accent mark? The only one I can find is VIZ's manga translation. Brotherhood's eyecatcher, 2003's character sheets, all of the guidebooks I can find, ALL of them spell her name as Rose, no accent mark. I haven't found a single Japanese source that spells her name Rosé, and no better English source than VIZ (which is generally avoided due to having inconsistent and blatantly wrong translations, like the infamous Cselkcess).

I am willing to leave this exception as it does make the intended pronunciation more clear, but it reaaaaalllyyyy bothers me that I can't find any better source for the accent mark....If anyone knows of any other sources that spell her name Rosé, preferably a Japanese one, I would be very appreciative

Hey everyone. I got REALLY sick a few days ago so I haven't been touching the wiki, I'm still not great but I'm showing BIG improvement over the last few days, so I'll likely return to wiki-editing-form soon!

That being said, coming back to check on the wiki today, I realised that the very last edit I made and stopped at coincidentally happened to be my 1000th edit! Call it commitment or lack of better things to do, I'm pretty satisfied about that regardless haha.

In bigger, sidewide news, we're actually only ONE edit away from our 70,000th edit! That's right, we're currently on our 69,999th edit. See for yourself:

I thought it was pretty cool that both myself and the wiki as a whole reached a milestone at the same time, so thought I'd point it out.

Have a lovely day or night, whoever's reading!

Look, I am more used when creators show the atrocities of certain villains to make us hate them and see them as evil monsters.

Yet, Hiromu did not have the guts and balls to show Nina’s painful transformation with Alexander into the Ninalexander abomination while Shou Tucker smiles in a disturbing way with his irises shrunken and lifeless; not caring for her cries and anguish.

Look at Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s for example; the creators of the show had the guts and balls to show in the 61st episode of how the villain Divine torturing the young brother of Misty, Toby in an extreme electrocution experiment to see if he has useful psychic powers. After finding that he does not have said powers, Divine decided to kill him by raising the power, resulting in Tobi being electrocuted to death as he makes his final screams of agony and the heart rate making a beep sound now that he died.

• Link to Episode 61 of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s (https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Yu-Gi-Oh!_5D%27s_-_Episode_061)

But there was none for Tucker’s experiment; all that was shown was him tricking Nina into agreeing to his experiment that she was not aware.

Fans mention that he is the “evilest” character of Fullmetal Alchemist; which means in layman’s terms that he is a genuine supervillain able to make anyone suffer. He is as evil as Divine; making them one in the same as supervillains with evil actions based off of real-life evil.

Apparently, someone told me this:

• “From a horror point of view, it's better to leave the actual chimerisation process unseen. After all, what goes on in our imagination would never be lived up to by the manga/show. I'd personally argue that if we outright saw Tucker being evil before the reveal, that would not only lessen the tension while Ed figures it out but make that whole scene less creepy paradoxically.”

I am not so sure as I would rather agree with showing the experiment and outright seeing Tucker being evil.

E-V-I-L.

I mean even Hiromu Arakawa hates him. For good reasons by the way.

So if you hate him Arakawa-sensei, then why did you not make a horrific scene to cement the fact that he is evil and try to warn us of real-life evil like child exploitation and human experimentation?

I'm not very experienced with this particular element, nor do I know how to edit it. I believe Winry is classified as a main character under it, and while the term itself can be subjective, I think Winry takes on a supporting role in the story. She is seen rather infrequently, and while she plays a large role in the Briggs arc, she shouldn't really be classified under "main character"

You might notice a lot of characters have broken infoboxes -- that's because I am overhauling how they look to be more organised and less messy!

Now that I'm admin there's several things like this I want to clean up, but this one might take the longest just because it's used on so many pages.

I'm currently working hard to fix them all fast! Sorry for any inconvenience.

None of the bureaucrats are active so I'm applying to adopt it!

If anyone's noticed things that desperately need updating let me know and I'll fix it when I can, there's numerous templates and infoboxes I'm already planning to improve but I might've missed some.

Can someone upload more transcripts to the site from the fma03 and possibly some brotherhood
