So it's really over now. Gotta say that this was probably the most perfect ending of a shounen manga i've ever read.

*clings* So there are mangakas who can think of good ending, eh. Nothing left hanging or unexplained, pretty much everyone got some kind of resolution... too bloody awesome for words. It still makes me sad to see such a great story end though *sniff* Now I can finally watch the anime XD

Yeah, it's a great feeling to finish a manga you've loved for a long time while thinking "that's exactly how it should end"! It's amazing how she did all the characters justice AND made sense!

So yup, there's sadness but it's rather sweet.^^ Now i only need to find a worthy monthly replacement...especially since Vinland Saga is on hiatus, too...*sigh

I just finished reading it too. It's nice to have an ending that actually makes sense, it really cheered me up.. but it's still a bittersweet feeling, seeing so many great characters gone. *sigh* Roy I'll miss you~~

i need to dig out some dj now or something XD

Vinland Saga on hiatus? Damn and here I was thinking of finally catching up with it... what's the point if I'm left hanging? duh :S

Still four more anime eps. to go! But yeah, i'm really gonna miss all of the FMA folks...

Well, it's only been on hiatus for a month now, but due to an unspecified illness of the mangaka which means it could be back this months or...never like NANA. Plus, there's the problem of getting raws after Raw Paradise's demise...but you should still read it! Be left hanging with meeeee~!XD
