**or** 64 WONDERFUL episodes of goodness!
HAGANE NO RENKINJUTSUSHI!!
My favorite line in the whole series!
"A lesson without pain is meaningless. For you cannot gain anything without sacrificing something else in return, but once you have overcome it and made it your own...you will gain an irreplaceable fullmetal heart." -Edward Elric, the last line in the whole show.
ABOUT THE SHOW!!

Equppied with mechnical "auto-mail" prostetic limbs, Edward becomes a state alcehmist, seeking the one thing that can restore his brother and himself... The legendary Philosphers Stone!!!!
Charectar Biograhpies

Alphonse Elric:
Al is the younger Elric, with his older brother Ed. Though Ed always seems to appear as the younger one since Alphonse looks so much bigger and acts more mature.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS.
My reviews........
This is one of the best shows i've ver watched. Its known for swtiching from dead serious to stupid funny in a matter of seconeds. Or vise versa. this show is well proportioned in Humor, seriousness, action, and mystery. It has many twist in turns in the story line which makes it fun to watch. its also one of those shows that make you think about life, which i personally like. It makes you look at life a whole knew way. Each charectar has their own personaility and look, its the small things that really make this show what it is. Even if this show is just a kids show, the plot gets very complicated and mixed togther. It was written in away that made it easy to follow though. The drawings are intersting and the places made up in the series are interseting as well. If you think about it it somtimes seems like Amestris was based off of America in a way. With Ishvala, and the extirmination. I mean didnt we try to exterminate a race too? An a lot of the charectars have blond har and blue eyes. I personally like Brotherhood better becasue its follows the Manga more. This version also has more closure and doesnt end where you ave to watch a movie. I espcially love how Edward was given the name Fullmetal. It really is irnoic, how Hiromu Arakawa woked that out. there are a lot of lessons in this show, an I really do believe in Equvilant Exchange. I believe in the seven Deadly sins as well as the gate. I think there is a gate, like when peoples lives flashe before their eyes, i think thats what the gate is for us. Even if alchemy doesnt exist in america, or in our world, We can always pick up the Series Fullmetal Alchmist and pretend like it is.

"When I was certain he was going to kill me, my mind went blank, and I didn't have any hope anymore. All I could do was scream my lungs out. I felt so helpless, I couldn't even bring myself to believe someone might save me. And then you showed up Al, and I realized that if we don't take care of each other then no one else will. So I'll do anything in my power to get our bodies back, even if it means being the militaries lap dog. And we'll just have to hope our powers are good enough to help us rise above our own limits. Because we're not Gods, we're humans, tiny insignificant humans. Who couldn't even save a little girl. "
Edward- Elric"
— Hiromu Arakawa (荒川 弘)

Edward: It's called having integrity. You should try it sometime"
— Hiromu Arakawa (荒川 弘)
