FullMetal Alchemist  |
| |
| Fullmetal Alchemist is set in the early 20th century in a country called Amestris in an alternate-historical Earth with technology dating from early 20th century Europe. In this alternate world, the pseudoscience of alchemy is heavily used, but takes on a further fantastic element not seen in real-life alchemy. Real-world alchemists attempted to transmute gold from lesser metals. In the fictional world of the series, alchemy becomes the science of transmuting matter into different matter through the use of transmutation circles—based on real-world science, yet also magical, with seemingly infinite uses. Talented alchemists may apply to take a State Alchemist test to join the Amestris military's State Alchemists. Edward and Alphonse Elric were children living in the rural village of Resembool in the country of Amestris. Their father, a talented alchemist, had left home when Edward was very young and Alphonse was still an infant. Years later, their mother, Trisha Elric, died of a terminal illness. After their mother's death, the two boys decided to attempt to revive their deceased mother using alchemy. They studied alchemy with a teacher and then used their father's books and notes that he had left behind to recreate a human transmutation circle. However, this attempt failed, costing Edward his left leg and Alphonse his entire body. In a desperate effort to save his brother, Edward sacrificed his right arm to affix his brother's soul to a suit of armor. After that, Edward's left leg and right arm are fitted with two sets of Automail, a type of advanced prosthetic limb. In the original Japanese, the term "Fullmetal" is used to describe a person who is stubborn. In the series it is often mistakenly attributed by minor characters to Ed's automail arm and leg, or Al's armor body. A State Alchemist by the name of Roy Mustang arrives during the failed human transmutation in response to letters the boys had sent out seeking information about their father (in the hopes that they could get the attention of their father so that he would come home). After seeing their skill at alchemy, Mustang suggested that the way for the two boys to achieve their goals would be to become State Alchemists and work for him. Spurred on by the man's proposal, Edward set out to become a State Alchemist, enabling him to use the resources available to State Alchemists to discover a way to restore what he and Alphonse had lost. The brothers eventually learn of the Philosopher's Stone and set off in search of it as a means to restore their bodies. Along the way they discover secrets about the Philosopher's Stone and find other people who seek it as well. Let's talk about it=DD Who watch this anime or read the manga? What do you think of it? I think that's great! It was a lot of time that I didn't love something of this gender so much XD I think that the plot is great, and original..=D | | Hagaren no family! | | | | |

| | I love this anime. It becomes better from episode to episode. The movies finished some things that series left untold... but I didn't like the end. I hope that there will be a new series. | | | | | | |

| | I liked the anime, and its a part of my top 10, but I sorta like the way the manga is going right now than the anime (especially the movie).. I didn't think the author quite intended the series to be completed that way. | | | | | | |

| | I agree, the anime really went off course in my opinion. Its always sad when the anime episodes over take the progress of the manga, because then the plot and storyline always seems rushed. They should have just came up with fillers eps or something until the manga could overtake the anime again, but the fact that the mangas released once a month kind of throws the whole filler idea out the window. Its the same with the Gantz anime, i started out reading the manga and i thought that was awesome, but then watching the anime it just really sucked. Fair enough when it kept to the manga, but when it went so much off course it was just like, WTF. But yeah, the movie was good I thought, it rounded the whole anime off and actually came to a satisfactory ending, which i was happy with =] | | | |

| | Plus, the characterisation tends to get stereotypical. For example, Kikyo in Inuyasha - she looked more than a little nuts in the anime and that's just not fair. They made her out to be a total anti-heroine kinda person and she had a better personality in the manga. | | | |

| | I've watched the entire anime series, I still need to watch the movie. Hehe. *sweatdrop* I haven't read any of the manga. In regards to the anime storyline, I felt like it was one of the more indepth anime serieses I've seen and it had a good lesson to it without being 'preachy' although I wouldn't want to let little kids watch. The first episode was upsetting enough to me and I'm an adult. | | | | | | |

| | Fullmetal Alchemist is my favorite anime that I've ever watched. I loved both series and will own both series, I have the first series on DVD as well as the movie, I'm starting to buy the manga and loved Brotherhood to pieces and I'm enjoying the dub on Adult Swim. It's so well written and deep and meaningful and fun. You can't go wrong with Fullmetal Alchemist. | | | | | | |
