Fullmetal Alchemist Volume 20 by Hiromu Arakawa
After the extended flashback in Volume 19, we're back to the main story. Ed makes an unlikely alliance to continue his fight against the homunculus conspiracy. Al and his team have a dramatic fight with the homunculus Envy that ends in defeat...for Envy, who is reduced to a minuscule worm. The worm doesn't die and begins causing trouble as soon as he can. Al also has a reunion with his estranged father that's...awkward. Meanwhile, Lt. General Armstrong fights her brother for control of the family, but it seems more like a ploy to get family members out of town as "the promised day" approaches. It's not really clear what "the promised day" is, but the homunculi are excited about it so it must be bad.
The story is still really good and has me reading on!
Recommended.
