So, I read nearly every post, all the way from page 1, so I could see peoples thoughts and reactions, so happy so many people like this, and I'm glad I forgot nearly all of what I read of the manga years ago to better enjoy the anime. All I remember is that this story COOKS.
Also, I believe in Female Mangaka Supremacy.
Dungeon Meshi - Fullmetal Alchemist
Ryoku Kui - Hiromo Arakawa
FMA is my absolute favorite manga and anime, and once again I am lucky to find the things I enjoy in yet another story. Well written and fully realized characters, a detailed and well explained world, and a series that is clearly pointing towards a specific, probably completely planned from the beginning ending.
I cosplayed Hohenheim this past convention, I will probably be looking at how I could pull of a Senshi in the future.
Last thing of note, I didn't remember him much, from the very beginning Kabru came off as... well, off. It's funny, because looking at it from one point of view, he is very much the character you'd be following in a different story. His goal is to defeat and rule the dungeon (right? I mean, that's close nonetheless, I don't want to google and get spoiled lol.) That is something that could very well be the actual focus of a story, but when you look at it from how we view them, it becomes clear how excessively egotistical that is, and how the rest of his party is just completely in line with his ambitions comes off fanatical. Just murdered some dudes "well, yep, that's why he's the only one fit to rule!"
I don't remember what happens with him later... but I do not trust him.
