Full - !!better!!metal Alchemist Brotherhood
The brothers embark on a journey to find the "Philosopher's Stone," a legendary artifact that allows an alchemist to bypass the laws of equivalent exchange. They hope to use it to restore their bodies. However, they soon uncover a dark conspiracy involving the military government, homunculi, and the very foundation of their country.
Their journey is refreshingly devoid of whining. Edward is cocky, short-tempered, and brilliant; Alphonse is gentle, introspective, and morally grounded. Together, they form a sibling bond so real it hurts to watch when they are separated.
At its heart, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood is a story about consequences. Unlike many protagonists who are gifted with secret legacies or hidden power boosts, Edward and Alphonse Elric earned their suffering.
For the uninitiated, do not let the episode count (64) scare you. There is no filler. Every episode builds toward the final transmutation. Ed and Al’s journey is a reminder that while there is no such thing as a free miracle, the human spirit can break any law of physics.
The attempt fails catastrophically. Ed loses his left leg, and Al loses his entire body. In a desperate act, Ed sacrifices his right arm to seal Al’s soul into a massive suit of armor. Years later, Ed (now the "Fullmetal Alchemist" State Alchemist) sports automail prosthetic limbs, and Al remains a hollow suit of armor. Their journey is simple: Find the legendary to restore their bodies.
