Popular Fullmetal Alchemist Review


Full Metal Alchemist is Hiromu Arakawa's so far most successful manga. It has processed a large brand, which includes, among other things, a very popular anime, console games and accessories. Manga based on the BONES studio animated the TV series has been the early 2000s several times over the years with the Western world's most popular and best anime series of listings, and manga itself bobs often at the forefront of sales.


Mangas story of a fantasy world that bears a slight resemblance early 1900s Europe. The main difference between the reality of the story of the world can be to practice alchemy, a kind of magic, where people are able to change the shape of objects, or even objects to another type. The main characters, Edward and Alphonse Elric, learned at an early age alchemy from absent fathers notes. When their mother dies while they are still children, they multiply their rate of learning and are try to use alchemy taboo - to awaken his mother back to life. Things are not going very well, and the end result is that Edward loses an arm and leg, and Alphonse his entire body. Edward manages to barely bind Alphonse's soul to a nearby massive armor, and little brother will live on as stacks of metal.


Fullmetal alchemists animation can be considered as good / very good.

Characters of the series work pretty well. Main characters are decent ones and manage to create some attachment to the watcher, which is always a good thing in mangas/animes. As for side characters I really didn't care about them, there are couple of good ones as well as villains, but most of them really didn't 'startle'.

Story of FMA in my opinion works very well. The main characters have a clear aim and they are being focused on it without doing much unnecessary stuff. The story pacing could in my opinion be a bit swifter, but it's pretty much fine like it is: there are some plot twists that manage to intrigue watcher to keep them interested and I pretty much liked them myself too.

Both the manga and anime, the story focuses on how Ed and Al seek a way to restore their bodies to normal. Of course, this requires even more forbidden alchemy.
