A lot has happened in the recent couple of volumes， so this one feels more like moving the pieces around to get everyone in place for the next major events。 There are big reveals about Van Hohenheim's past， though， which will be really important for the rest of the series。 A lot has happened in the recent couple of volumes， so this one feels more like moving the pieces around to get everyone in place for the next major events。 There are big reveals about Van Hohenheim's past， though， which will be really important for the rest of the series。 。。。more

Read more graphic novel reviews at The Graphic Library。Volume 13 starts off giving us insight into how Scar ended up running away with a （seemingly） unconscious Winry from the end of volume 12。 Ed and Al hatched a plan to get Scar， Dr。 Marcoh， and everyone else back to Fort Briggs safely without drawing the attention of Kimbley。 A heavy snow storm covers the groups’ tracks and they slowly make their way back while the two Elric brothers try to steal Kimbley off their tracks。 Then， Central Comma Read more graphic novel reviews at The Graphic Library。Volume 13 starts off giving us insight into how Scar ended up running away with a （seemingly） unconscious Winry from the end of volume 12。 Ed and Al hatched a plan to get Scar， Dr。 Marcoh， and everyone else back to Fort Briggs safely without drawing the attention of Kimbley。 A heavy snow storm covers the groups’ tracks and they slowly make their way back while the two Elric brothers try to steal Kimbley off their tracks。 Then， Central Command pulls Major General Armstrong away， removing the fierce ally in the Fort that should be protecting the fleeing group。 Alphonse trudges through the snow storm to warn them， but he falls victim to an odd sensation - the sense that his physical body is pulling his soul out of the armor。 Later， we delve into Van Hohenheim’s backstory， and how he’s tangled up with the Father of the Homunculi。At this point in the series， we have passed where I remember what's happening。 Every time I re-read， I tend to get as far as the brothers getting to Fort Briggs， and can't remember anything consequential after that。 So， the background into Hohenheim and Father is new all over again， and it's heartbreaking and amazing all over again。 Each volume gets progressively darker as it grapples with these concepts of good and evil， natural and unnatural。 With Major General Armstrong， we get another layer to add to the story of what's been happening with Colonel Mustang and the Central Command。 Arakawa continues to build complexity through the plot-points happening across the country， as well as plenty of flashbacks to illuminate how the past has influenced present-day Amestris。Sara’s Rating: 10/10Suitability Level: Grades 7-12 。。。more

This is a review of the entire series。Fullmetal Alchemist takes place in the fictional country of Amestris which is heavily based on the Industrial Revolution。 Amestris is a unitary state under the rule of a parliamentary republic， run by state alchemists that serve the king utilizing the mystifying arts of alchemy。 Alchemy is the power to alter the physical world utilizing its natural elements， performing magic and miracles in the form of science。 Alchemy follows the law of equivalent exchange， This is a review of the entire series。Fullmetal Alchemist takes place in the fictional country of Amestris which is heavily based on the Industrial Revolution。 Amestris is a unitary state under the rule of a parliamentary republic， run by state alchemists that serve the king utilizing the mystifying arts of alchemy。 Alchemy is the power to alter the physical world utilizing its natural elements， performing magic and miracles in the form of science。 Alchemy follows the law of equivalent exchange， you must sacrifice something that is of equal value to what you create。 You must sacrifice a life to create a life， you must extinguish one flame to ignite another， you have to sacrifice one home to build another， etc。。。After being abandoned by their father as children and subjected to watching their mother die， Edward Elric and his brother Alphonse once attempted to utilize the power of alchemy to bring their mother back from the grave， ignoring the dangers of creating a life by offering something of equal value。 Edward loses an arm and a leg while Alphonse loses his entire body; his soul placed in a hollow suit of armor that can't feel the touch of others。 As neither of them sacrificed their lives in their entirety， the exchange failed and the boys created an abomination in place of their dead mother。After burning their own home down and dealing with the abomination they created， Edward and his brother enlist themselves in the military to atone for their sins and learn more about the many secrets of alchemy; potentially learning how to recover their original bodies in the process。 While serving in the military， the brothers begin to realize how the wonders of alchemy can be abused for nefarious purposes。 Immortal life can be gained by sacrificing hundreds of innocents souls， wars can be staged and foreign nations can be annihilated under false charges， human experimentation aided by alchemy can lead to unnatural mutations， the world of alchemy is more dark and dangerous than either of them could've bargained for。Fullmetal Alchemist grew on me the longer I read it。 When I first started reading， it seemed like it was going to be generic shounen material， but it gets deeper and darker the further it goes on。 The way it handles political and religious corruption， the dangers of advanced states abusing their technology and resources at the expense of foreign nations caught in the turmoil， and the sad futility of revenge are all very well done。The characters all bear the weight of what alchemy is capable of。 Edward and Alphonse carry the burden of abusing alchemy for selfish purposes。 Their master Izumi loses her womb after attempting to resurrect her dead child。 Scar takes many lives after his entire country is desecrated and gets trapped in a pointless cycle of revenge。 Roy and Riza endure the regret of committing brutal war crimes for the sake of protecting their own nation。 Alchemy creates and destroys in equal measure and no one is free from the consequences of tipping the balance。The fight scenes are flashy and exciting without being too over-the-top because of the dangerous limitations that alchemy involves。 The law of equivalent exchange keeps the power scaling in check and adds plenty of tension to the action。 The female characters are especially well done， all of them are strong and unique in their own way。 The lead heroine Winry being a skilled mechanic， Riza being an honorable warrior of the military， Olivier Armstrong as cold and vicious as the snowy fortress she guards， and that's just a few of them。The villains are an interesting parody of the seven deadly sins。 Each of them represent the darkness and regrets of each of the main characters and they can only be conquered by coming to terms with their own flaws and sins。 The characters having to overcome their personal demons to take on the greater demons trying to overthrow the world from the shadows made the struggles of every single person in the story feel personal。 Every character， no matter how minor had their moments to shine。 Everyone had a vital role to play and the camaraderie between friend and foe alike never felt cheesy or forced。Unlike most shounen series I've read， the final arc was my favorite。 A lot of long-running shounen series have a habit of being dragged out， losing touch with what made them great or breaking their own rules in messy， plot-hole-filled final arcs that leave a lot to be desired。 Fullmetal Alchemist has no lose ends， all characters have complete arcs where they learn and grow from their dark pasts， the romance and comedy are handled well without relying on cheap fanservice， the action scenes are great but they don't overshadow the plot and the final chapters tie everything together beautifully。 It's not my favorite manga by any means as I usually tend to favor seinen， but it's definitely one of the greatest stories to ever come out of the shounen demographic in my opinion。 The ending is a tearjerker but it left me in good spirits。***My Social MediaMy YouTube Channel: https://www。youtube。com/channel/UCPPs。。。My Instagram Account: https://www。instagram。com/michael_sor。。。My Wattpad Account: https://www。wattpad。com/user/Michael-。。。My Twitter Account: https://twitter。com/SorbelloHorrorMy Facebook Account: https://www。facebook。com/michael。sorb。。。 。。。more

Elisa Tarancón ，

Este tomo es tan épico y ¡acaba con el desenmascaramiento de mi homúnculo favorito！ Además， también está la presentación del homúnculo más poderoso， su hermano mayor， el primer hijo de Padre。Todo el mundo debería leer esta maravilla de manga。 Puede que tarde un poco en verse lo que la autora va a hacer， pero es impresionante una vez empiezas a darte cuenta de los hilos que ha ido tejiendo。 😍😍😍
