Fanart of the Week

Continuing with the Fullmetal Alchemist characters ...

Lin! (or Ling, whichever.) Aw, I love Lin. I really enjoy a character who introduces themselves as a happy go lucky fool, lulls you into a sense of security ("oh, this guy's just comic relief"), and then reveals he's a smartypants badass underneath. Actually, I've noticed that about FMA. Everyone is a badass. Even tiny little girls and their tiny pet pandas. WTF. So anyway, I like Lin a lot, and then he gets (spoiler) and turns super sexy and for some reason they don't make his age clear in the manga (or if they did I missed it), so I was assuming he was at least in his 20s, but then I watched the anime and NOPE, he's FIFTEEN.

... so I feel dirty. XD

If you didn't read it already, volume 24 of FMA came out last Wednesday, and I swallowed it whole in one sitting. It was pretty magnificent; the whole thing was three fight scenes, and the fact that Arakawa managed to spend 200 pages on three fight scenes without making them boring or repetitive ... well, damn. I would like to be like her when I grow up.
