...has it been so long since we've experienced a familiar feeling of pain that we've become content with any form of ambivalent happiness?
or could it be - that he had found the TRUE answer?

... so, is that the end? What's with the "final chapter" bit at the end? More to come? I'm so confused... TT
I think it might be the end of the series, it sounds like the creators M.O. This is sorta how he ended his earlier series "Monster" as well...
- The antagonist gets stopped by something that really has nothing to do with the protagonist and seems more like an accident
- There is resolution in the fact that the evil will no longer be happening, but the world is not altered completely
- There is no epic end battle, not mentioning the fact that the past 3 books have BEEN the final battle
- And having Kenji play his song that kept everybody going for all those years seems like an appropriate way to end the series. Far be it an ending with a lot of closure, but an ending none the less...
...I would also be very happy were I wrong and they had 2 or 3 more chapters to tie up the loose ends of what everybody is doing to try and change things, but Im not gonna hold my breath...

OK I didn't reply to this (or read) cause I wasnt finished with the manga until now (I know.. absurd : B)
I do think Tankobun 22 seemed a bit rushed but it was well done. I like these alternative endings - not the typical frmua of final battle then happily ever after.
I was proven wrong tho cause I liked the Full Metal Alchemist movie when I said I was totally happy with the normal anime ending. We shall see.
