Did Doflamingo use Parasite on the whole city in the last page?

Yeah. I did not like it, and it felt really cheap.

Trademarking everything I see.
Well his Phantom Brave adaptation is pretty grounded. Maybe being restricted to a base story constricts his whackiness.

But it made sense.
Alphonse lost his brother and his leg but obtained the "knowledge" in exchange. So due to the Law of Equivalent Exchange the reverse would be possible, that would be Al giving up the "knowledge" obtained in exchange for his brother. The solution for their problem and objective of their quest was actually that simple.

Wait, people think FMA's ending is cheap?
Probably one of the best shounen endings that I can think of.

yep it had one if the better shonen endings and the last arc was also good compare to other series i read.
The latest one being Beelzebub now that is a rush arc and ending .
The "Congrats, you've beaten Truth. Take it all." WAS cheap. Still, one blemish for an otherwise great series is passable.

Eh, I thought it was pretty well done as the climatic battle.
Err, what? I think the take it all thing was... allegorical. He still lost his ability to do instant alchemy in exchange for getting the "truth" that his brother was worth more than that.

Seeing as there are already OP, Bleach, Naruto Raws
likely a Toriko Raw exist
too bad I will contain myself from reading it... need at least one surprise chapter

I mean, it was part of the bad guy's plan, to absorb everyone into a huge ass homonuculus. Also the other guy's plan is to stop the bad guy's plan. That whole thing I thought was developed super well, seeing that most of story is the main group trying to reveal the mysteries of what the homonuculus' and hohenheim's agendas are. The finale was just a conclusion to those mysteries.
just like gantz

At the time a lot of people were salty that FMA didn't end with either Ed or Al dying because of weird reader bloodlust.

Should be 11 pages for every jump series.
I like you
The only thing I didn't like was that Mustang got his vision back in the end.

The raws of Bleach
It did make somewhat sense, but i thought it was a cheap power up. I still don´t think that gaining his brother and a body part and losing his alchemy was equivalent exchange. I thought the price was cheap for getting his brother back.
There´s absolutely nothing that can stop Kenpachi.

enough to feel like a official Bleach chapter
yep
that or watch brotherhood
The ending was definitely safe, but that's why I liked it. I did like how things wrapped up regarding Ed and Al too.
If you like shounen manga, yes. A lot of the story was planned from the start which makes the series good.
That's what my localization says! Translating it to english (pg 128-129 of v27):
"You won't need alchemy any more?"
'Nah, I've got loads of people looking after me!'
"That's the right answer, alchemist. You have beaten the Truth. Take it all. It's yours. The exit... is... there"

Yes you should.
No one "took it all" and that was the point of the entire series, you can't have the full bottle and the drunk wife either one or the other.

I like how Erina's two-speech bubbles are obviously indicative of a predictable character arc: she's a bitchy tsundere because she's obligated to be as a result of being in the main Nakiri family.

Thats the interesting thing about some opinions about the ending. People attach different prices for things around them, value changes according to each person

so what you're saying is I shouldn't read it
guess I'll read it

All I remember was being disappointed that it ended. I dunno. It felt like a good ending to me. Even gave us a timeskip to show off the cast and I always approve of those.
You haven't read FMA?
"lol shounen"

She's like "man it must be nice to be able to get upset in public. Woe is me, I must act strong for the sake of the Nakiri family!!"

Predictable plot lines are predictable.
That was basically the reason though :x
that doesn't sound like something I'd say
