"You can't gain something without sacrificing something else of the equal value. This is the principle of the equivalent trade."

The story takes place in an alternate world from ours in the early 1900's. Two young brothers, older Edward Elric and younger Alphonse Elric, live with their mother Trisha in the small village of Resembool. Their father left home when they were still very young, but Ed and Al inherited his passion for alchemy.

1909. On a fine day, Trisha dies of an unknown illness, leaving her two sons orphans. Ed blames his father for Trisha's death and wants to find a way to bring her back to life. At this time, Ed was 10, Al 9. When Edward finds out about flesh forging in an alchemy book that belonged to his father, he engages in an intense training with Al in order to be able to perform a human transmutation.

On February 1910, the Elric brothers cross the forbidden line trying to resurrect their mom. The attempt ends in a complete failure. In the process, Ed loses his left leg and Al his whole body. In a last try full of despair, Ed uses alchemy to restore his brother's spirit putting it in a suit of mail, at the further cost of his right arm. When Al wakes up in the armour, he suddenly realizes what happened and takes his unconscious injured brother to the neighbours, the Rockbells.

After that day, the two decide to embark on a journey to find the legendary Philosopher's Stone, rumoured to create anything from nothing, in hopes of getting back their original bodies.

Kamuinoyume's Fullmetal Alchemist Tv Review

Rated: 10

What more can I say except: I love the show. I love the story, the characters, the ending, everything about it. So, it should come as no surprise to people that I'm giving this show a 10. It had its problems, but for me, it's one of the few shows out here I actually consider a masterpiece, and I highly recommend it to everyone out there.

no category for fma: brotherhood? well this is for that version and it really does surpasses the first anime. ('cept personally i liked the old art style better cough i know this one follows the manga style but i'm still shallow sry)

The version of 2003 is... well, just fuck it. It sucks. But the version of 2009 and manga, of course... simply genial. Very interesting characters and story, lots of clever and philosophic thoughts... just watch/read it! And you'll understand.

I read the manga and really liked it. The plot was really good, so was the art. But i really liked the way how the mystery was unraveled. Though there were points where the main charecters were not so main in the action, but in the end it all came back to them.
The story started with the Elric brothers' pursuit to get their bodies back to the way they were and after the whole conspiracy ended with that, without them giving up for a lame reason. I really liked how everything worked out.
