I have to admit that I didn't care for this instalment quite as much. It wasn't bad - but it didn't stand out. I find with this series I'm either blown away or kind of 'meh' about each volume. There's a lot of set up here as everyone gets organizes for the finals few chapters in the series - necessary, but not exactly the most fascinating things to read about.There was also a really long battle sequences in this issue which I thought dragged on and was all over the place. Normally I'm really into to the action scenes in this story but this one left me wanting more.Excited for volume 22 though!
The army is moving, but so are the people opposing the military conspiracy. Finally Roy Mustang gets something to do again, strating a plot of his own right under the nose of the military leaders and the Homunuli in Central City - but not alone, because everyone is involved now and taking action all over the country and drawing part of the attention away from central city.There was no mention of Mei, but an awesome return of LanFan and her grandfather. Interesting revelation about Roy's upbringing. And it seems Al's time is running out...
I am almost finishing Fullmetal Alchemist manga. I need to read 7 books more and I'll be done.
