The movie website changed their layout today, or yesterday, I dunno which. The new layout is quiet cool and it's in full flash, so if you click on the characters page, it may take a long time to load the info.
And talking about characters, the website released 4 new characters, and they are no one but our familiar and beloved Roy Mustang, Riza Hawkeye, Alphonse Elric and Winry Rockbell!!
And they just updated their news section, something like this: 『劇場版 鋼の錬金術師　シャンバラを征く者』オフィシャルサイトを全面リニューアルしました！ I guess it says they changed the layout or something...
In the special section...they have got an interview with the director which has being translated before, I think. But there are some shiny pics in that section included.
They have added a new 'Word' section which will be coming soon, which may contain some stuff the seiyuus or other random movie related people have to say to you.

Ooooooooh! Shiny!

LOL, yeah it is very slow, i gotta admit " but still, its kooler than before LOL!

But i So want some translations on those characters *screams for translations*

Ohhh thanks for posting this...
And an updated "Charactor" page with cool pics and text description that I don't understand because I dunno Japanese!! Oh I wanna understand the characters descriptions of Roy and Riza SO MUCH >_<

Mmmm.... One cannot not recorded the image of the character ;_;

I can't read Japanese too! But I can recognize the chinese symbols, so I know 60-70% of what's happening, on Roy's profile, it's something like this:
In his last match of life and death with the homunuclus, he won, but lost his left eye.
He was a Lt.General once, but now he is only a private, now up north with the millitary where it's really cold.
The 'Flame' who has got really big dreams in his chest before, now disappeared...
The last sentence might be yes/no wrong, since I don't really get it.
Riza's one(not quiet sure):
She is currently a Lt.Colonel, working in Central HQ.

(warning: the next sentence SUCKZ! I SO MUCH DON'T GET WHAT IT'S TALKING ABOUT! So it might be COMPLETLY wrong.)
She is still healthy with her excellent shooting skills at hand. But she misses the old days.
And the last sentence...I REALLY couldn't figure it out...it's like
Often....herself....big......exsistence.....
That's all I can figure out.

I live in Hong Kong so I understand the Chinese characters too...
No offense but I think Riza is still 1st Lt. 中尉<-- Chinese typing

The Roy part is so saaddd And his pic looks so unhappy.

And yeah... WHY THE HECK IS WINRY TYING HER HAIR UP JUST LIKE RIZA???!!

roy lost his eye?well,no wonder he hed the eyepatch i guess.
at least he is alive,do both roys from both the gates lose an eye?or
just the alchemy roy?or is there only one roy?riza looks same as always?
alphonse tried mimmicking ed's look,?winry got a full makeover?
and ed grew a few inches and is in munich,wrath has automail,
roze also looks the same?there is another suit of armor?and why is
alphonse wearing armor?and is alphonse taller than ed?so many questions i do not understand

Yeah, I thought of that, but I don't think so.
In the 8th episode, the Furher calls her 'Major' and after a few years it's 中尉.
From the millitary rank table, 'Major' is higher than 1st Lt. and lower than the Lt. Colonel, so I think the possible answer is Lt. Colonel, since Riza can't slip from Major to 1st Lt.
And when Riza's 中尉, Farman, who is a Major, salutes her in ep. 13, if I'm not mistaken.

WOW! THEN RIZA IS REALLY A LT. COLONEL!!!!!

No offense but, Riza was the one who copied Winry's hair in the first place. Don't blame Winry just because she copied Riza's hair, I think it looks kawaii. Riza and Winry keeps on copying each other because they both respect each other.

What's the name of the song in the trailer for the Full Metal Alchemist Movie at the Official Movie Website? And who sings it? It's really good! I really like it a lot! Can someone please tell me?

i'm having issues loading the trailer, but i think it should be L'arc en Ciel's "Lost Heaven"?


actually, 中尉 is "first lieutenant." falman's a warrant officer for the entire series, which i believe is 准尉 (i'm not sure if the kanji for "jun" is correct there), so riza has always been superior to him in rank. the order starting from warrant officer up to colonel is 准尉 (warrant officer), 少尉 (second lt.), 中尉 (first lt.), 大尉 (captain), 少佐 (major), 中佐(lt. major), 大佐 (colonel).

ARGGH!! The millitary ranks are soooo confusing....
But I did hear daisoto call her 少尉....
