“Fullmetal Alchemist: Fullmetal Edition， vol。 18” by Hiromu ArakawaThank you to Edelweiss+， Viz Media， and Hiromu Arakawa for providing an ARC， here is my honest review:5⭐️/5⭐️“One is all， all is one。”Edward and Alphonse Elric are skilled alchemists who have reached the end of their journey。 On the Promise Day， they find themselves face-to-face with Father， and are referred to as ‘human sacrifices’。 Soon they will find out what those words mean。 Elsewhere， Scar continues his battle with King Bra “Fullmetal Alchemist: Fullmetal Edition， vol。 18” by Hiromu ArakawaThank you to Edelweiss+， Viz Media， and Hiromu Arakawa for providing an ARC， here is my honest review:5⭐️/5⭐️“One is all， all is one。”Edward and Alphonse Elric are skilled alchemists who have reached the end of their journey。 On the Promise Day， they find themselves face-to-face with Father， and are referred to as ‘human sacrifices’。 Soon they will find out what those words mean。 Elsewhere， Scar continues his battle with King Bradley， and the Armstrong siblings finish their fight against the immortal army。 The odds are stacked against the Elric brothers， Father wields the power of God， but the brothers can only rely on their friends and alchemy。 Can Edward and Alphonse defeat Father？ And will Alphonse ever get his original body back？-To put this review simply: Fullmetal Alchemist is a modern classic， and the greatest manga series ever written。 Bonus， it’s written by a woman！ I’m going to attempt the difficult task of trying to convince you to read this series based on a review for the last volume in the series。-Taking a step back， let me explain why this is such a good manga series。 The amount of layers and intricate connections between every setting， character， and storyline is genius-level。 Full disclosure， I’ve read this series in its entirety before and I’ve watched the anime adaptation multiple times。 Every single time I re-read this series or re-watch the anime I find a new detail I didn’t notice before， and those revelations hit me so deep。 This is a beautiful story that makes the reader think seriously about ethics， race， relationships， and morals。 What would you be willing to do for those you love？ What sacrifices would you be willing to make？-The artwork is incredibly detailed， and like so many artists， Arakawa has their specialties。 The use of shadows is immediately noticeable， as are the differences between light and dark。 Arakawa creates a bright source of light simply by using a contrast between black and white， and a pattern of lines。 When the reader is introduced to the homunculus Pride they can clearly see how shadows can create a fearful setting， not just for the characters on the page but for the reader themselves。-”Fullmetal Alchemist” finishes perfectly; there are no loose ends and nothing ambiguous。 Arakawa is able to find the balance between wrapping up storylines in a way that makes sense within the overall series， but also giving the reader enough information that they can imagine what their favorite character would be doing after the events of the series。 It’s one of the most satisfying endings to a series I’ve ever read， let alone for a manga series。-Now let me address the ‘Fullmetal Edition’ part， this is the last volume in a special edition release of the series。 Each volume in the series features a minimalistic portrait of a main character。 The character on the cover of vol。 18 is Edward Elric。 Edward is on the cover of the first volume， but seeing the comparison between the first and last volume， the reader can really see how much Edward has matured and grown; he starts the series as a child and ends as an adult。 There are little splices of color within the volume， right after each chapter introduction。 Visibly， it’s a beautiful book。-"Fullmetal Alchemist: Fullmetal Edition， vol。 18” will be released August 23， 2022 。。。more

Disfrute mucho esta obra， además creo que tiene muy buenos puntos al final。 Aunque varias situaciones， bajo mi punto de vista， se podrían haber resuelto mucho mejor。Por momentos la obra da momentos que la gente "quiere ver" aunque sean forzados。 Disfrute mucho esta obra， además creo que tiene muy buenos puntos al final。 Aunque varias situaciones， bajo mi punto de vista， se podrían haber resuelto mucho mejor。Por momentos la obra da momentos que la gente "quiere ver" aunque sean forzados。 。。。more

Selama ini selalu menganggap kalau FMA itu seri manga shonen yang tuntas。 Semua dikerjakan dengan baik。 Mulai dari karakter yang dapat spotlight dengan cara masing-masing， plot yang menarik dan konsisten， power system yang unik， dan ending yang solid （banyak manga shonen yang kesulitan ngasih ending yang kurang solid， termasuk Naruto dan Bleach）。

Que final más hermoso， derramé muchas lágrimas de felicidad， dolor e impotencia。 Esta bella edición del kanzenban trae ilustraciones a todo color， notas extras y este tomo en particular tiene 2 escenas extra， ignoro si la edición normal las traen pero son perfectas 🤧

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

Terima kasih sudah bikin saya yang masih remaja sadar tentang Equivalent Exchange！ Saya pikir yang baca FMA pasti dalam hatinya pernah memikirkan masalah ini， apakah ini masalah kesuksesan atau sekedar masalah keberuntungan karena juga ada hubungannya juga dengan karma。 Benar-benar topik menarik untuk dijadikan bahan komik shonen :）Memang akhir komik berbeda dengan akhir anime FMA yang pertama yang menurut saya sangat berkesan walau bagi saya sendiri ending di komik ini juga tetap berkesan。Terim Terima kasih sudah bikin saya yang masih remaja sadar tentang Equivalent Exchange！ Saya pikir yang baca FMA pasti dalam hatinya pernah memikirkan masalah ini， apakah ini masalah kesuksesan atau sekedar masalah keberuntungan karena juga ada hubungannya juga dengan karma。 Benar-benar topik menarik untuk dijadikan bahan komik shonen :）Memang akhir komik berbeda dengan akhir anime FMA yang pertama yang menurut saya sangat berkesan walau bagi saya sendiri ending di komik ini juga tetap berkesan。Terima kasih， Hiromu Arakawa！ Menantikan lanjutan komik Anda yang lain！ 。。。more
