Fullmetal Alchemist (anime)/Ho Yay: Difference between revisions

* Throughout [[Fullmetal Alchemist (anime)|the 2003 anime adaptation]], Alphonse Elric and Scar share some moments that could be interpreted as [[Ho Yay]], such as Alphonse asking Scar how he feels about him in episode 24 and {{spoiler|Scar sacrificing his life to save Al in episode 42.}} And if that's not enough, the [http://community.livejournal.com/fm_alchemist/3293475.html seiyuu are aware of it, too.]

* Not to mention Roy Mustang and Edward Elric in the movie. Mustang lives in almost total seclusion until Ed shows up again, then they both totally ignore their former love interests to see and fight alongside one another again.

** End of ep. 48 is also a bit shippy, though frankly this trooper can't tell if it's promoting Roy/Ed, Roy/Maes, or Elricest. Roy and Ed talk about how they're sacrificing everything they've earned in the name of Hughes and Al (respectively), but there's an overwhelming sense of [[It Has Been an Honor]] and Roy finally seeing Ed as not a child whose innocence he wants to protect as much as possible, but as an equal. Likewise, Ed sees the Roy behind the "Bastard Colnel" facade. They both admit they're [[Not So Different]], and this trooper does think it's telling that this moment comes at their last possible meeting, when they both know they might be going to their deaths.

** Ed certainly spends a lot of time thinking about Roy's "cocky smile" and "witty remarks" in the anime. "I can just see his smug face now..." We know you can, dear.
