Summary
In an alchemical ritual gone wrong， Edward Elric lost his arm and his leg， and his brother Alphonse became nothing but a soul in a suit of armor。 Equipped with mechanical ""auto-mail"" limbs， Edward becomes a state alchemist， seeking the one thing that can restore his and his brother's bodies。。。the legendary Philosopher's Stone。
As the Day of Reckoning dawns， the Elric brothers， their father Hohenheim， and all of their allies battle to the death against the homunculi’s “father。” The fate of the entire world hangs in the balance。 To claim victory， some will have to make the ultimate sacrifice。 When the dust clears， will a happy ending await our favorite characters in the final volume of Fullmetal Alchemist？

In the military state of Amestris， there are those who can perform alchemy， the elemental control of the world around them。 There is only one law: the law of equivalent exchange—to get something， something of equal value must be given。 It follows that human transmutation isn't allowed because what could be as valuable as a human soul？ Edward and Alphonse Elric， tiny alchemist orphans， figure they can crack the code to bring their mother back from the grave—and in the attempt lose an entire body In the military state of Amestris， there are those who can perform alchemy， the elemental control of the world around them。 There is only one law: the law of equivalent exchange—to get something， something of equal value must be given。 It follows that human transmutation isn't allowed because what could be as valuable as a human soul？ Edward and Alphonse Elric， tiny alchemist orphans， figure they can crack the code to bring their mother back from the grave—and in the attempt lose an entire body （Al）， an arm and leg （Ed）， and childhood innocence when they bring something to life for a brief， grotesque moment。 Attempting human transmutation is enough for Ed to come face to face with The Truth， who claims first his leg as a toll for trying to transmute a soul， and then his arm when he returns to save his brother。 Al's soul ends up bonded to a suit of armor， and Ed ends up with automail limbs and the ability to perform alchemy without needing to draw a transmutation circle。We meet Ed and Al a few years after Ed's become a state alchemist—nicknamed the Fullmetal Alchemist by the Fuhrer—dedicated to finding some way to reclaim Al's lost body and Ed's sacrificed limbs。 They're on the trail of the fabled philosopher's stone， a tool that amplifies natural alchemic reaction and potentially give Ed the power he needs to barter with The Truth。 And it's this search that leads to the discovery that there's something rotten happening in Amestris。。。There's a lot happening in Fullmetal Alchemist: a teenage boy struggling with the choices he made as a child that lost him his arm and leg and trapped his brother in a suit of armor; a solder alchemist who wants to run the country and the lieutenant who has back—either to guard or shoot as necessary; the automail mechanic who lost her parents to the country's civil war and is worried about losing her childhood friends to the increasing conflicts; the teacher who lost her baby and harnesses great power as a humble housewife; the political assassin who is seeking revence for the atrocities committed on his people by the Amestris government; the starving prince seeking immortality to promote his clans interests back in his homeland—I could go on。 The breadth of life in Fullmetal is engaging and interesting and very well balanced。 There are， obviously， good guys and bad guys but the good guys are guilty of bad things， too， and it's this self-reflection and awareness that highlights why they're the "good guys"。 I liked Ed （and his hatred of being called short）; I liked Al growing as an individual （instead of being just "Ed's little brother"）; I loved Roy and Riza being competent badasses with all their will-they-won't-they tension; I appreciated Scar's journey as a man seeking revenge and finding recompense; I liked Olivier being a cold-motherfucker who takes no shit and gets shit done。 There were a few characters that were a bit tedious—Kimblee， I'm talking about you， you psychopath—but they are necessary to the scope of the thing， I think。 One other minor gripe—absolutely minor— was the lack of resolution to the story。 The major battle and climax ends， and there's a handful of disparate scenes that close out the books—Ed yells about feelings on a train platform and Al's going on a trip as well as a few other things—but it doesn't quite tie off the threads of the plot as well as I would have liked。 A personal preference？ ABSOLUTELY。 But I definitely was disgruntled so it gets to end up in my review If you're interested in fantastic worlds and political intrigue， definitely check Fullmetal Alchemist out。 。。。more

Man kann nicht viel sagen， ohne wirklich zu spoilern。 Deswegen bleibe ich sehr kurz:Das Finale ist perfekt。 Es enttäuscht in keinster Weise。 Alles was drin ist， war drin。 Von Anfang bis Ende ein sehr guter Manga。

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 of 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 Instagram Account: https://www。instagram。com/michael_sor。。。My YouTube Channel: https://www。youtube。com/channel/UCPPs。。。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

I’ll try and encompass my thoughts for the whole series here， but I don’t have a map。 My brain is like a blank white space where you stumble across random thoughts and memories that seem lost in time。 I was gonna` get metaphysical and shit， but let me just lay it down like it is。 Hiromu Arakawa created a philosopher’s stone all her own in Fullmetal Alchemist。 And in her own fashion I’d just like to say thank you。 Thanks for a wonderful story beautifully illustrated and wonderfully portrayed。 An I’ll try and encompass my thoughts for the whole series here， but I don’t have a map。 My brain is like a blank white space where you stumble across random thoughts and memories that seem lost in time。 I was gonna` get metaphysical and shit， but let me just lay it down like it is。 Hiromu Arakawa created a philosopher’s stone all her own in Fullmetal Alchemist。 And in her own fashion I’d just like to say thank you。 Thanks for a wonderful story beautifully illustrated and wonderfully portrayed。 And thank you to everyone that helped shape it up！ Metal。 It’s metal as hell。 Almost as metal as Alphonse vs Pride & Kimblee。 That fight was full metal。 I’m being silly。 What is there to say？ Some things just have to be experienced y’know？ If you’re reading this go experience。 I don’t know why you’d be reading reviews of the last 3-in-1 omnibus， just go。 Shoo！ For the sake of not having said enough I will say this: I believe that when you give something your all that you’re empowered in ways that can’t be described。 The manga is such that I feel blessed for having crossed it。 That’s all。 。。。more

Lai gan stāsts galvenokārt bija par diviem jauniešiem， beigās nozīme bija visiem， un viņi nebūt nebija tie lielie pasaules glābēji。 Savu roku pielika visi svarīgākie tēli， lielāko daļu darba vispār izdarīja konkrēti pieaugušie， sīkajiem peitika vien piepalīdzēt ar pēdējo bliezienu pa lielo ļaunumu。 Beigās， protams， uzvarēja draudzība， jo tas dzīvē ir pats svarīgākais （tipiski konkrētajam žanram）。 Vienlaicīgi smags， jautrs un mīlīgs piedzīvojums。

My kinda friday night: giving myself a headache by crying through the last several chapters of my favorite manga ever。 There are few things in life more fulfilling than reading a story that delivers an ending that feels so right。

At this point in the series， there’s no way for me to talk about the events of the later installments without some major spoilers… so instead I decided to just finish the series and write one review for the last four volumes :） the story begins with two brothers， who after a failed attempt at an alchemy experiment lose parts of themselves… one of them loses his arm and leg， the other his whole body… now they are on a journey to regain what they’ve lost… along the way they meet a lot of interesti At this point in the series， there’s no way for me to talk about the events of the later installments without some major spoilers… so instead I decided to just finish the series and write one review for the last four volumes :） the story begins with two brothers， who after a failed attempt at an alchemy experiment lose parts of themselves… one of them loses his arm and leg， the other his whole body… now they are on a journey to regain what they’ve lost… along the way they meet a lot of interesting characters and discover plots that are much bigger and more dangerous that they could’ve ever anticipated… the further you get into the series， the more complex and serious it gets… don’t get me wrong， there’s plenty of adventures and humor， but in the later installments there are many more complicated and serious themes… specifically the last two are very fast paced and action packed… they actually take place mostly over the span of less than one day… I really liked how the whole series ended， it was a very satisfying finale :） I will definitely reread the series at some point in the future， when I will be able to concentrate more on each individual installment， but overall the whole series is a worthy 5 stars read :） I highly recommend it :）XOXOA 。。。more

A review for the whole series:What a work this was。。。 Fullmetal Alchemist was masterful from beginning to end。 Arakawa's art is efficient， awesome， and sometimes terrifying in the right ways。 It is a series laden with rich characters， intricate world-building， a well-thought-out plot， deep ironies， and themes that echo human nature and the essence of the world。 A review for the whole series:What a work this was。。。 Fullmetal Alchemist was masterful from beginning to end。 Arakawa's art is efficient， awesome， and sometimes terrifying in the right ways。 It is a series laden with rich characters， intricate world-building， a well-thought-out plot， deep ironies， and themes that echo human nature and the essence of the world。 。。。more
