These moments

It happens, very rarely, that I come across something so heartbreakingly beautiful that I wish it would never end. The moments where you have to stop reading the book because you know if you continue it's going to end, and you can never read it again for the first time. And tonight, watching the conclusion to the magnificent Fullmetal Alchemist series, the movie Conqueror of Shamballa was one of those moments. Before seeing the movie I was able to put off the fact that the series was over because there was still the movie left, but from the first moments of the movie I knew it was going to be over very soon.

No other TV series, and very few books, have ever touched me the way Fullmetal Alchemist has.

Fullmetal Alchemist is matchless, and I doubt if anything will ever come even close to it: as soon as I have a few hours of peace I will write my own thoughts on this the finest of series.
