So wait. Are they going to show 25 BEFORE or AFTER? Anime dazed;; Guh.

Anyway, I'm quite surprised, and yet I'm not. I thought they were done with it since they were dubbing around episodes 20-23 in October. o___o;

accually, they just dubbed the first 29 episodes and Adult Swim has the rights to Episodes 1-25 only. So after FUNimation decides to finish the series, Adult Swim is going to buy the rest of the episodes and show them on the air again.

Well, this was expected due to its absence on the list [adult swim] put up of what new things were going to air. I guess I'll have to settle for the premiere of Samurai Champloo instead Very Happy . And yeah, 25 is a weird number to stop off on.

See, Im a member of the Adult Swim boards and my screenname is ILuvHeijiHattori, If you go on the adult swim boards on the day Fullmetal Alchemist is gone, there are going to be lots of rants made by me and other fans as well.

I'll pretend that Episode 25 is a season finale episode. Hiatus sounds pretty bad. Rolling Eyes

Hiatus is basicly just a break. Like what Case Closed is going through right now. Its not on the air but it will come back.
