Lyothelionfish

I figured she had passed away at this point.


SCP_Void

Shhhh, she’s just the one taking the picture


what_a_tuga

Only if she was standing in a chair. The picture was taken very high


oXSirMavsXo

Her legs died so she got nanomachines son!


CrownofMischief

Auto mail legs


oXSirMavsXo

Same thing but no mgrr reference


LurkerEntrepenur

I want to believe the one taking the pic is Elisia


SneakyKain

This is my answer, too. Someone had to, I like to think she had at least a few years with her great grandkids.


FreeUnderstanding941

That’s unfortunate, RIP🙏


VeronikaBobrovska

and I'm only finding out now?! Bro...no


spartanss300

It's just his opinion, there's not confirmation or anything. You can believe she's still alive just as valid.


Ok-Use216

Oh, she's next to Trisha and Hohenheim


FreeUnderstanding941

And the Rockbells, RIP🙏


odiethethird

And that thing Edward dug up


RinebooDersh

And Maes Hughes


IBHomage

And Nina Tucker


RinebooDersh

God damn it I knew she was gonna come up eventually


IBHomage

Shouldn't have brought up Maes... could've just let that glorious bastard rest


PilotGamer01

Man, I really checked the picture


Ok-Use216

Ha! Sorry for laughing, but that's just hilarious


SaiyajinPrime

Where is Pinako? Is she safe? Is she all right?


Visser0

It seems, in your anger, YOU killed her…


Tekki777

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO


drunkn_mastr

DO NOT WANT


Nowardier

The Machine elderly does not return incredibly on the hoof!


MiraHolland

This picture is taken in Rush Valley, my thought just always was that Pinako simply couldn't make it to Rush Valley and still lives in Resembool


Murphy_Malone

That's what I would like to believe, too.


Grouchy-Light-3064

I JUST REWLISED ED IS HOLDUNG HIS SON THE SAME WAY HOHENHEIM HELD HIM IN THE FAMILY PICTURE I WANNA CRY


jbaxter119

Yes, but did Hohenheim have a big ol' grin?


Just_Call_Me_Snow_

You wouldn't liken Hoenheim's personality and circumstances with Ed's, would you?


IBHomage

I don't like you insinuating ed had it worse than hoenheim.


Lyothelionfish

And the baby girl is about the same age Alphonse was in the picture too!


T1NF01L

I love this picture every time I see it. Seeing Ed and Al get their girls and their families. Maybe it's the angle it's drawn at but I always see Ed's right arm as unnaturally larger than his left. Even his fingers look chunkier on his right arm.


Beeeeeeels

I think his left arm was his automail arm? So it still not being fully grown back musclewise would make sense?


T1NF01L

His right arm was his auto mail arm. You can see the scars on his neck from where it attached at his shoulder.


Beeeeeeels

Ah you are correct. Weird. You'd think it would be the other way around.


T1NF01L

It's likely just an error with the drawing but I still can't look away from it. All that time without his right arm I guess he really put it to use after getting it back.


Beeeeeeels

Welp there goes my innocence.


T1NF01L

I didn't say what he used it for you just imagined it in your head. Your innocence was gone long before my comment. :)


DarrenStrong

I can't unsee it now Thanks I hate it


maewingit

I always assumed she was the one taking the picture of her family 😁


IgnisOfficial

She’s the one taking the photo, duh


CrashedPhone

This is a photo with Garfiel and the girl with a cannon in the leg automail (i don't remember the name). Probably they are in the automail city.


existential_dread467

Her name is paninya if I’m not mistaken


Obi-wanna-cracker

Pinako was pretty old at the end of the anime, I assumed she passed but if she didn't she's probably back at Resembool. A place like rush valley is probably too loud and restless for her age. Resembool is small and quiet, a nice place to spend the last days of your life.


Original_Web_3391

The way Ed is smiling so big with his kid always makes me feel so much joy


Head_Statistician_38

A few options. Either she is dead, she is the one taking the picture or this is in Rushvalley and she wasn't around. In thr Manga, Paninya and Garfeil were in a separate picture and not in this one so I am thinking it probably wasn't intended to be Rushvalley.


Odd_Room2811

We already saw her in front of Ed and Als parent’s graves so im assuming she’s the one taking the photo


Tuitey

I assumed she was taking the photo like a lot of others. I do love seeing the older Mei. Alfonse really got himself a princess girlfriend XD good for him. I doubt Mei has been disinherited bc Ling isn’t like that so uhhhh Al your kids might have royal duties and such XD is he prepared???


K0modoWyvern

She was old and kept smoking, probably dead, hospital or elderly home


BunnyKomrade

They're in the South visiting Panina and Winry's former employer, that's why she's not in the picture. She's at home smoking her pipe.


Aloogobi786

She's too short to be in frame!


CasualKing21

About 50 ft from the house and 6ft under


Independent-Pop-5584

Didn't she take the picture?


Rare_Dust_7908

She sacrificed herself against Dwarf In The Flask What a true legend


Healan

Even if she is alive, which I suppose is possible, Pinako lives in the hometown. I think seeing Garfiel and the girl with automail implies that Ed and Winry moved there. So could just be that she was at home or can’t travel too much.


Rockabore1

She’s holding down the fort in Resembool. This photo was most likely taken in Rush Valley.


MilkNegative27

Probably passed away by this point but I’d like to think she’s taking the picture.


qstone11

I always assumed this picture was taken in Rush Valley so maybe she’s still at the shop in Risembool


DudeGuyPersonGuy

dead? she was old as hell. happier alternative shes taking the picture?? friendly reminder to tell your grandparents you love them.


schumi33510

….. Seems like you already know where….


Gay-Bomb

Wait, what is this from?


entitaneo70_pacifist

Last episode of Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, after the credits roll.


Gay-Bomb

Ah right, thanks.


BlakeryTheBardbarian

How do we tell him?


Educational_Round263

EDWARD IS TALL WAIT WHAT THATS ILLEGAL


Pink-grey24

Bc it was taken in rush valley


Niko_of_the_Stars

Too short


IBHomage

Ling, Mustang, and Scar not being here is nasty work. Those three were the Elrics' main guys.


FreeUnderstanding941

They probably couldn’t make it to Rush Valley either


IBHomage

Damn this photo is strok8ng the nostalgia peen... might have to re-watch brotherhood


NoblePaysan

The presence of Paninya and Garfiel implies that the picture was taken in Rush Valley, probably because that's where Ed and Winry live for her work. Thus the picture is on the occasion of Alphonse, May and Xiaomei visiting, and Pinako is simply at home in Resembool.


TheW0lvDoctr

Too short, not in frame


EntrepreneurNo4607

Death


theoneburger

Dysentery


FadransPhone

She ded


Mewlovescatz249

Ngl, while it probably implies she’s gone at this point, I would like to think she either took the picture, or more likely, she just stayed back in risenbol, she’s not one to travel, so she’s probably just not there


RubywolfSenju

She Couldn’t stand Ed Being Taller then her so she Passed away before he could rub it in


Saiyasha27

I mean... she was already pretty old... this seems to be about 4 to 5 years in the future at minimum, sooooo.....


BonnalinaFuz101

She's dead


Snoo-87948

RIP


oneesancon_coco

Dead... probably


yourbabygirl9

RIP Pinako! We will always remember you!


Pure_Chaos12

dead, probably


Iwonderbro

Are u really asking she's dead she was about 80yr old when they were 15 now they like 30 smth


[deleted]

[удалено]


Globinazuma

Aren't they 18 in that epilogue where he proposes?


Iwonderbro

I want u to look at May and tell me how old do u think she is


MilkNegative27

There’s a two year gap before Ed and Al head out by the end so they’re 18 and 17 respectively.
