~ Last words of Maes Hughes. |
Maes Hughes is a supporting character in the Fullmetal Alchemist franchise. He is an Amestrian State Military officer stationed in the Investigations Office in Central City and Colonel Roy Mustang's best friend, as well as the closest supporter of Mustang's secret bid for the position of Führer.
A devoted family man and exemplary soldier, Hughes was generally well-liked by the other characters (unless he was pushing his love of his wife or daughter on them) and his murder by the Homunculi served as the major starting point for the story to unfold.
He is voiced by the late Keiji Fujiwara in the Japanese version of the anime, who also voiced Leorio Paladinight from Hunter x Hunter franchise, and by Sonny Strait, who voiced Korosensei from Assassination Classroom, in the English version.
Bio[]
Maes Hughes is a rather quirky officer working in Military Intelligence who is best friends with Roy Mustang. He assists both Mustang and the Elric brothers in their respective missions. Contrary to his appearance, he is not a man to trifle with.
Abilities[]
As an intelligence officer, most of Hughes' job is combing through old files for names and dates. He uses his investigative abilities to find leads, solve mysteries and even save lives, and often does so off the record or on his own time. He doesn't hesitate to dig through classified intel or snoop through nationwide conspiracies to help Roy and the Elric brothers, risking his career and even his own life more than once. Likewise, he is able to use his knives to defeat both Envy and Lust.
Personality[]
Mayes Hughes is an amicable man with a big heart and immense love for his family and strangers alike. He's almost always seen showing off pictures of his beloved wife and daughter—but he's also a decorated veteran of the Ishvalan war, a high-ranking member of the military, and spends his days at work investigating his fellow soldiers with an unwavering loyalty to bettering Amestris.
Trivia[]
- In the live action film, he is portrayed by Ryuta Sato. In the English dub of the live action film, he is voiced by Matt Mountjoy.
