This started stronger, but the story sort of stops dead to introduce 2 new characters from Xing. Both are after the secret to immortality, so I wonder if they also have issues with the same illness that killed the Elric brothers’ mother.

The start with President Fuhrer moved the story forward in a worrying way (for Al). It’s obvious the military is doing some shady things and trying to quiet the details about chimera’s and the philosopher’s stone.

I think the next volume will be better.
