And yeah, thanks to the whole "getting stuck on the other side of the Gate right before WWII breaks out" thing at the end of the series/movie, there's PLENTY of Holocaust fics... I have nothing against how the writers ended the series at all, I actually think it was pretty brilliant. But all those stupid fics... I mean, I took a class on the Holocaust as an elective last year, and we really delved into the psychology of the whole thing. And ANGST ISN'T POSSIBLE when you don't feel like a human being anymore. >.
Besides, I don't think there's any reason for the Elrics to end up in a concentration camp. Sure, Ed's technically physically disabled, but I get the feeling he could hide it well thanks to the automail. Not to mention that they'd probably leave Germany while hunting for the atom bomb, so...

Can't wait for the new series, either. Didn't know it'd start that early, though... I thought it'd be another year before dubs came out, and then they'd play it on TV. Though I'm in the US, so things could be a bit different... (You're in the UK, right? XD)
