[Hei & Nagi berdiri diatas panggung berdua]
[para tamu undangan mengucapkan selamat belasungkawa, atas kematian... eh!! selamat menempuh hidup baru]
[sementara itu, erika~chan & megu~chan masih melanjutkan perjuangannya untuk dekat sama chara fave-nya]
[pemotongan kue berlangsung meriah. Yui, Ritsu & Azusa paling menyambut momen ini]
[Yui & Alice mantengin meja makan, memakan semua makanan yang ada didepan matanya]
[Yin di ikutin sama chara-chara cowok yang genit-genit]

[setelah acara pernikahan selesai]

Erika~chan : Nagi~chan!

[Nagi & Hei menghampiri Erika~chan & Megu~chan]

Nagi : hmm~ ada apa?

Megu~chan : misi.. misi..

Nagi : misi? permisi?

Megu~chan : bukan!!! tapi misi pembunuhan

Hei : khihihihi, Nagi lucu!!! kamu memang jago membuatku ketawa. Misi rahasia pembunuhan Hihara

Megu~chan & Erika~chan : [mengangguk]

Nagi : owh, ya sudah.. kalau begitu, kita mulai saja. rencananya begini.

[Hei, Nagi, Megu~chan, & Erika~chan makan dengan lahap karena tadi nggak sempat makan kesibukkan PDKT, sambil menyusun rencana untuk membunuh Hihara]

Nagi : Hihara~sama, gomen. tolong bantuin aku! Hei hilang. Jangan kasih tau tamu yang lain, nanti malah heboh dan jadi keributan. tolong bantu aku cari Hei.

Hihara : hah.. hah.. hah.. aduh, capek juga nih... [ngos-ngosan]

Nagi : bau ini..[ngendus] ini bau parfum yang dipakai Li

Hihara : berarti Li~kun ada di dekat sini, ayo!

Hihara : kamu!!! contractor kan!!! BK-201. Nagi pergi dari sini.

Nagi : iya. [Nagi sambil menhampiri laki-laki misterius itu]

BK-201 : Nagi! ambil ini!

[laki-laki bertopeng itu menglemparkan seutas tali kearah Nagi]
[Nagi berlari sambil membawa tali tersebut, dan langsung melilitkannya ke tubuh Hihara]
[lalu tiba-tiba Hihara shcok dan tubuhnya jatuh terkapar dilantai]

Nagi : IEEEEEEE~!!! Hei apa yang terjadi sama... wa.. waj..

[karena marah, Nagihiko pingsan gara-gara disetrum sama Hei]
[kembali ke ruangan]

Joker : Ya, kami persilahkan pendeta Liam, untuk naik ke podium untuk memulai acara pernikahan, waktu dan tempat kami persilahkan.

[semua undangan yang perempuan, memandangnya]
[semua undangan yang laki-laki, berbeda reaksi, ada yang sok-sok muntah, ada yang buang muka, ada yang buang ludah, bahkan ada yang buang air kecil! ckckck]

Liam : pengantin laki-laki kita sudah tiba, berdiri dengan gagah seperti yang kita liat berdiri dengan gagah untuk menyambut mempelai wanita datang, menyusuri karpet. Sebagaimana kita tahu...

penulis : LANJOOOOOT !!!

Liam : eh.. eh.. iya.. iya.. kita sambut saja, sang mempelai wanita, Nagi Sanzenin.

[Ui & Edward masuk menyusuri karpet merah, sambil membawa keranjang dan menaburkan mawar putih]
[Nagi masuk dan menyusuri karpet, dengan mengenakan baju pengantin panjang berwarna putih, memberikan perbedaan warna sendiri diruangan yang terkesan kelam dan bloody]
[Amber & Yin menjadi Bride Meises mengangkat bagian paling belakang dress Nagi]
[Yui & Azusa bermain gitar mengiringi masuknya Nagi]
lagunya ini...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxxwn2T1-wE

[saking luasnya ruangan, ketika lagu habis, Nagi belum sampai di podium juga]
[akhirnya Nagi lari-lari sambil mengangkat dressnya]
[Amber & Yin juga jadi ikut-ikutan lari]
[karena saking semangatnya, dan beratnya dress, Nagi jatuh]
[Hei menopang tubuh Nagi yang hampir menyentuh lantai dengan pelukan]

Nagi : Hei...

Hei : kamu ini, ceroboh sekali..

Nagi : habisnya, kalau tidak cepet-cepet, nanti nggak sesuai rencana

Hei : kamu mau cepet-cepet apa memangnya? ciuman?

Nagi : 0////////0 enak saja!

Hei : sudah cepat berdiri lagi, katanya mau cepet-cepet...

Nagi : iya [sambil membersihkan dress dari kelopak bunga yang menempel]

[keduanya jalan bersama sambil bergandengan ke panggung, lampu sorotpun mengikuti]

Liam : baik kita langsung saja, dari pada penulisnya teriak-teriak lagi..

penulis : aah,, Liam tau saja~ ^u^

Liam : Li Sheng Shun, apakah kamu bersedia menjaga Nagi Sanzenin dengan seluruh kekuatanmu, membahagiakannya serta menjadi suami yang diharapkannya?

Hei : sangat bersedia

Liam : Nagi Sanzenin, apakah kamu bersedia membahagiakan Li Sheng Shun dan menjadi sosok istri yang diinginkan?

Nagi : bersedia

Liam : dengan begini kalian resmi menjadi suami-istri

Sweet Tamatan by Koge-Donbo

 
konbanwa minna-san !!!
kali ini,, nagi-chan mau memperkenalkan sahabat baru nagi-chan,, yang selalu menemani dalam kesepian di kamar yang dingin... brrrr >~<
judulnya,, Sweet Tamatan... jadi,, 7 tahun yang lalu...
Tamatan,, mendapat strap berbentuk bulan dari seorang laki-laki yang memiliki telinga kelinci,, dia bilang,, laki-laki ini akan menemui Tamatan lagi...                                                           akhirnya setelah 7 tahun lamanya Tamatan menunggu kembalinya laki-laki ini,, sang Usamimi (cewek/cowok bertelinga kelinci) datang ke Bumi dengan UFO...                          ternyata,, laki-laki yang Tamatan tunggu selama ini adalah seorang pangeran kerajaan Selenia yang berada di Bulan,, namanya adalah,, Miko Tsukiakaneno (dalam gambar diatas,, tentu kalian tau yang mana kan ?) nah,, ketika Miko tiba disekolah,, dia langsung mencari 3 kandidat gadis Bulan,, untuk menjadi seorang putri Bulan legendaris... dan telah terpilih 3 orang teman sekelas Tamatan. Mereka mendapatkan dewa Bulan dan akan menjalani kelas yang berbeda dengan Tamatan,, dan semua hal yang diajarkan tidak boleh diajarkan kepada murid lain...
Tamatan sedih karena,, sudah 7 tahun dia menunggu Usamimi,, dan sekarang mereka harus berpisah,, karena kelas yang akan dijalankan oleh ketiga kandidat gadis Bulan berbeda dari kelas anak-anak sekolah Tamatan,, Ia akan semakin jarang bertemu dengan kedua teman baiknya...
ketika Tamatan menitihkan air mata,, tiba-tiba keluar dewa Bulan yang keempat dari strap Tamatan,, dan Tamatan bilang ke Miko,, bahwa 7 tahun yang lalu,, seorang laki-laki bertelinga kelinci memberikan strap ini kepada Tamatan,, dan kandidat gadis Bulan sekarang menjadi 4 orang !!!

to be continued...
abisnya baru satu chapter sih,, jadi tunggu bulan Maret ya minna ! ^^,
salam hangat dari Nagi-chan,, karena disini lumayan dingin... brrrrr~ >~<

factbook of "Hagane no Renkinjutsushi" -- HagaRen

» Hagane no Renkinjutsushi
People are always asking what it actually means when broken down. Hagane means "Fullmetal" (or "Full Metal") whichever you prefer. no is a transition word. Renkinjutsu is the skill or art of Alchemy. If you add shi to the end of a skill, you refer to the person, therefore Renkinjutsu + shi means "Alchemist". Put it all together and Hagane no Renkinjutsushi = Full Metal Alchemist. People also wonder the discrepancy between the "fullmetal" and "full metal" spellings. The official japanese website (and the logo) has it as "fullmetal" whereas, if it were properly translated it would be "full metal" since there is no such word in the English language. Also, Japanese people have abrreviated the name to "Hagaren", Haga(ne) + Ren(kinjutsushi).

» The Ranks in Full Metal Alchemist
Often times, people will ask who is above who, in the whole military aspect of the show. I have put together a list of ranks and example personnel for you. For example: All State Alchemists start out with the rank of Major. Nice way to get bumped up the chain of command pretty quickly :) We havnt come across a lot of the ranks, but this should give you a good idea of how things are broken down. Furthermore, this ranking is a status fairly early on within the series, and people do get promoted but we havnt listed them so that you wont soil the series.

Commissioned Officers
Example
General of the Army (Fuhrer) King Bradley
General Hakuro (Ep 5)
Lieutenant General
Major General
Brigadier General Basque Gran
Colonel Roy Mustang
Lt. Colonel Maes Hughes
Major Edward Elric, Alex Louis Armstrong,
All other Alchemists.
Captain
First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye
Second Lieutenant Maria Ross, Yoki


Enlisted Officers
Example
Sergeant Denny Bloch
Warrant Officer Farman



» Who you calling short?
Edward doesnt take lightly to being called short, small, pint-sized, a shrimp, or anything like that. So we've gone through and found many of his little reactions. If you find one thats not here, shoot us an email and we'll add it :)
  • "Who did you say was small like a grain of rice and doesn't show up in your eyes?!"
  • "Who did you say was a super-ultra short kid?!"
  • "Who did you call an ultra hyper midget?!"
  • "Who did you call miniature size?!"
  • "Who did you call a shorty who's so small that he's barely visible and hard to target?!"
  • "Who did you call a shorty that has to be looked through a magnifying glass to actually be seen?!"
  • "Who are you calling a bean?!"
  • "Who are you calling a super midget that makes you want to step on him?!"
  • "Who are you calling a tiny bug that escapes the wrath of a shoe because he's so small that he fits in the grooves and can't get squashed?"
  • "Oh yes, I'm so small that you can't see me amongst the grains of sand, like always--!"
» The Seven Deadly Sins
The "Bad Guys" in Full Metal Alchemist are known as the Sins due to their names. In some Christian religions, the bible has references to Seven Deadly Sins that would cause you to go to hell.
  • Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.
  • Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.
  • Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.
  • Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work.
  • Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.
  • Anger/Wrath is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury.
  • Greed is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.
» The Full Metal Alchemist World
The Anime and Manga takes place primarily in the country of Amestris. However this is not the only country in the world within the series. Here is some detailed information about it.

Amestris
The story takes place in Amestris, which is currently having minor skirmishes with Aerugo and Creta. The country is ruled by martial law, under Fuhrer/Generalissimo King Bradley. The cultural base is European, possibly German. The majority of Amestris' interest in alchemy is for military purposes. Mount Fuji is located to the south of Youswell, in the east. Dublith, in the south, is where Izumi Curtis and her husband reside.

Side note: Amestris was the wife of Xerxes. Between Amestris and Ishvar/Ishbar is Xerxes, which was destroyed in one night. According to Greek and Persian legend, Amestris was a Persian princess who had her husband assasinated by their first-born son. Amestris continued to live well on into old age, ruling from behind the throne. She was characterized as ruthless and powerful, and Amestris was considered by all reports to be essentially under her thumb and helpless to cross her.
Aerugo
Located south of Amestris.

Creta
Located west of Amestris. May be Crete, based on the kana in the manga.

Drachma
A hostile country located north of Amestris; sometimes translated as Drachna, but has been identified in the manga as Drachma. The Briggs Mountains separate Drachma and Amestris, which makes invasion for either country too much of a hassle. Side note: Drachma is the pre-Euro currency in Greece incidentally.

Xing
A country far to the east of Amestris, across the Great Desert, with a Chinese cultural base. There are several routes to Xing. The first is a rail system that was buried in the desert; the second is a route through the Khshayarsha (Xerxes) ruins; the third is by sea. Xing has alchemy, but appears to be for medical purposes and research.

Isshuvaru (Ishbal)
Located east of Amestris, Isshuvaru (Ishbar, or Ishvar) was annexed by Amestris during the Ishver Civil Conflict. The cultural base may be Indian or Middle Eastern, with a suggested compromise interpretation of Persian. The Ishvarites are monotheists who do not believe in or allow alchemy, however, Ishvara means 'god' in Sanskrit. The Ishvarites' proximity to the ruined city of Xerxes (possibly destroyed through alchemical reaction) may be partly reason for their ban on Alchemy.

» The Origin of Character's Names
Many of the names in Fullmetal Alchemist have a historical root. Members in the military are tied to WWII and Aircraft names, the Alchemists have ties to famous alchemists in the past. Here you can find detailed descriptions and connections of these ties. Thanks to Scimitar Smile, and those below for this information.

Hohenheim Elric
Edward and Alphone's father, gets his name from a town in Germany. It's also the surname of Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim, more often referred to as Theophrastus von Hohenheim, an alchemist with the penname of Paracelsus. Von Hohenheim, on its own, is the equivalent of calling oneself something like Jack of London. However, it indicates Arakawa spent at least some time digging through introductory alchemical histories or texts, that he would chose such a name for the boys' father.


Bradley
Bradley Fighting Vehicle M-2/M-3 is a light-armored, midrange tank designed for mechanized infantry and armored cavalry combat. Main armament is a 25mm cannon, with supplementary armament of a TOW missile and a 7.62mm machine gun. The Bradley is a modern tank. [6]
Bradley may have a WWII connection as well. Omar Bradley was originally teacher at U. S. Military Academy and the Infantry School, but he rose quickly through the ranks due to his brilliant tactician skills and his reputation as a commander with whom his soldiers could readily identify. By 1945, Bradley was in charge of the 12 U.S. Army Group in the European arena, commanding roughly 1,300,000 men. "His troops broke out of the Normandy beachhead, liberated Paris, defeated a German counteroffensive during the winter of 1944-1945, seized the first bridgehead over the Rhine River, and drove through central Germany to establish the first Allied contact with troops of the Soviet Union." [7] After WWII, Bradley took administrative positions, becoming the US Army's Chief of Staff in 1948. He was the fourth officer ever to reach the rank of 5-star general in the Army, a promotion only possible during wartime.
Fury
The FJ-1 Fury was first commissioned in 1945, but the final version was not delivered until 1948, and never saw action in WWII. A twin-engine jet designed for carrier landings, the Fury was armed with six .50-caliber machine guns with 1,500 rounds total. By 1949, the FJ-1 was already being phased out in favor of the F9F-3 Panthers. [5]

Fury, the youngest officer of Mustang's staff, is often mistranslated in fansubs as Huey. Curiously enough, Huey also has connections to military aircraft. The Huey (HU-1) was a support and carrier helicopter that first saw action in the Vietnam Conflict. [3]

Havoc
The Mi-28 Havoc was a fighter helicopter, fitted with one 30mm NPPU-28 cannon, SA-16 Gimlet AAMs, AT-6 Spiral AT missiles, and 130mm or 80mm rockets. First deployed in the late 60's. [1]

Hawkeye
The E-2 Hawkeye was designed for airborne early warning, command and control. Carrying no armaments, it is classes as reconnaissance. "The Hawkeye provides all-weather airborne early warning and command and control functions for the carrier battle group. Additional missions include surface surveillance coordination, strike and interceptor control, search and rescue guidance and communications relay." [1]

Hayate
The Nakajima Ki-84 Hayate was possibly the best Japanese fighter aircraft during the last year of the Pacific theater. The Hayate was fully the equal of even the most advanced Allied fighters, and superior in many aspects; it was well armed and armored, fast, and maneuverable. [4]

Hughes
The P-73 Hughes was an experimental aircraft, whose designation number was skipped in favor of a more 'commercially attractive' number, and the P-75 was released instead. There was a P-73, but "it was so secret that even today there are few details available about it. The P-73 was almost as mysterious in its time as the shadowy 'Aurora' is today. However, the reason for all this secrecy was [predominantly as] a result of the neurotic personality of the owner of the company which produced the aircraft. This was none other than the brilliant but eccentric movie tycoon, inventor, and industrialist Howard Hughes." [4]

Mustang
The P-51 Mustang was a one-man long range fighter in the patrol/pursuit category, carrying six .50-caliber machine guns and ten five-inch rockets, or 2,000 pounds of bombs. "The P-51 was the first U.S. fighter aircraft to fly over Europe after the fall of France. The Mustang destroyed 4,950 enemy aircraft in the air during World War II, more than any other fighter in Europe." [1]
