On the other hand, our STARs voted differently! Who're the STARs? That's right, they're our very own Scanlators, Translators, Artists and Reviewers!!! Interestingly, both our STARs and the general community (includes the STARs and STAFF) voted the same couple as their favorite! And so, the [sizept=15]BEST COUPLE[/sizept] goes to...!!!
[sizept=30]ED x WINRY!!![/sizept]
Congratulations to EDWARD and WINRY!! It would also seem that Fullmetal Alchemist has the best couples all around, with Roy x Riza winning the Staff votes Here's to Edward and Winry!
