GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!


So Ed, Al, and Izumi, and presumably Hoenheim, have been pulled into the Gate/Door however you want to translate it. But Father has stated that he needed "one more." So who's the fifth sacrifice? If they've gotten to the promised day without a fifth, does that botch Father's plan? They're going ahead with it, so that means that either a)they found a fifth, or b)they think they can go through with only four.

And, holy crap, is Bradley finally going to die?? It took Buccaneer, Fuu, Ling AND Greed, and he's still not down. But he's wounded.

Damn Arakawa and her cliffhangers.

I have an awful suspicion they'll do the 'step into the array or we'll kill Hawkeye". Or they'll kill her and tell Roy to bring her back. That's the kind of thing they'd do to fuck with Roy one more time. And that's the kind of crap I'm sorta expecting. I fully expected Winry to be a hostage and Ed giving himself up to save her....but yes...Roy called for Ed and I sighed....mmmmm.....so love those two....

Re Al--I suspect it will be something involving the blood seal--perhaps the Body!Al will make physical contact and absorb the soul..

Ug, yeah, unfortunately I can see that being pulled - although, even as soft-hearted as Roy is, and as much as he cares about his subordinates/friends (since I haven't really seen any romantic interest on his side, though the Riza/Roy is pretty clear, I'm still putting Riza in the same category as the rest of his staff) if it comes down to "save one person, or save the country," I'll be really disappointed if he makes the selfish decision. Besides, Riza would never forgive him.

Gaaah, and we have to wait a whole month to get any sort of answers...
