This was so fun I loved it even more than the first book。 We get to know amazing new characters and it’s action packed。 I really want to read the sequel and watch the anime ！

Ya vamos conociendo a más personajes y se están empezando a desvelar los comienzos de la trama。

Me gusta el ritmo rápido que tiene， nos dice mucho y a la vez muy poco sobre lo que está pasando。 Se ve más las personalidades de los personajes en comparación con el anime （FMA y FMAB） por extraño que parezca。 Ver a Armstrong enojado es para morirse， por no decir a Al respondiéndole a Ed con gritos y golpes en la cabeza （sabiendo que es la única manera en que entiende el chiquitin）。

Yay！ I've now past the introduction I literally experienced 3 times （both animes and vol 1） before I got here。 New content！ Now I'm getting a general idea of this series and what the brothers will be facing throughout。 I'm keen for the journey and looking forward to continue！ Yay！ I've now past the introduction I literally experienced 3 times （both animes and vol 1） before I got here。 New content！ Now I'm getting a general idea of this series and what the brothers will be facing throughout。 I'm keen for the journey and looking forward to continue！ 。。。more

This was a great second Volume。 It introduces two amazing characters to the series。The Hilarious Armstrong:And the very compassionate， but tough Winry:It introduces us to the compelling and devastating event of the Ishvalan Genocide， which is only just the beginning。 I love the way this novel is setting up the larger plot points and I like seeing how the mystery is slowly being discovered。Another tragic aspect I loved to see was the Elrics burning down of their house。 Their whole return to their This was a great second Volume。 It introduces two amazing characters to the series。The Hilarious Armstrong:And the very compassionate， but tough Winry:It introduces us to the compelling and devastating event of the Ishvalan Genocide， which is only just the beginning。 I love the way this novel is setting up the larger plot points and I like seeing how the mystery is slowly being discovered。Another tragic aspect I loved to see was the Elrics burning down of their house。 Their whole return to their hometown was nice to see。 （Ofcourse to introduce us to Winry） but then to see their dedication， the act of literally burning bridges so they couldnt return。 （But its beautiful to see they really have a home with Winry and her grandmother。） You also get another seed planted as we see that the Ishvalan Genocide， that was just recently introduced， also affected Winry and her Grandmother。Its kind of amazing some of the characters and plot elements/ messages Manga's can display considering the format that it uses。 So I also enjoyed the little nod to prosthetics， how it affects people in this world， how its good business for Winry and her grandmother， even though the amount of people that need prosthetic is because of the war that killed Winrys parents。 This also gives us some insight to the pain that Edward endures to live with his automail。So much good stuff in this volume。 And ofcourse I love the humor。 I laughed multiple times in this one。 In particular when Armstrong used Alphonse， who was resigned to a shipping crate at the time， as a weapon。 。。。more

Of course I adored it。 We finally see my girl Winry and the plot really kicks up a notch in this volume。 I love it so much it's hard to restrain myself not to binge read the entirety of the manga right now。 Which is exactly what I did when I first watched the anime。。。 Of course I adored it。 We finally see my girl Winry and the plot really kicks up a notch in this volume。 I love it so much it's hard to restrain myself not to binge read the entirety of the manga right now。 Which is exactly what I did when I first watched the anime。。。 。。。more

La conspiración se sigue construyendo mientras los germanos Elric buscan información para recuperar su cuerpo。Conocemos a más Personajes， villanos y amigos que acompañarán a los alquimistas en su aventura。Vuelve el tema principal de la saga: los límites de la ciencia y la moral。 ¿Poder hacer algo implica que se debe hacer？ La edición sigue siendo fantástica。

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

This series is just so good and I'm so glad I'm reading the manga！！ I've seen the anime， but I haven't read the manga， so the fullmetal edition is perfect for what I want。 The versions are so gorgeous and pretty that I'll have to buy them one day so that they can be a part of my collection。I'm reading this after I DNF'd a book and let me just say to finish this is so satisfying as I've been waiting for this at my library for forEVER。 The hold hasn't come in for months so I just decided to read i This series is just so good and I'm so glad I'm reading the manga！！ I've seen the anime， but I haven't read the manga， so the fullmetal edition is perfect for what I want。 The versions are so gorgeous and pretty that I'll have to buy them one day so that they can be a part of my collection。I'm reading this after I DNF'd a book and let me just say to finish this is so satisfying as I've been waiting for this at my library for forEVER。 The hold hasn't come in for months so I just decided to read it on my own if you catch my drift。 *wink wink*。 Knowing you're going to enjoy what you're reading is such a relief compared to DNFing a book after you find out that to you， the book sucks。 And it's just not to your taste。 But this manga series is！！！ The story continues for the Elric brothers and we finally get to be in Central。 We are introduced to so many new and important characters that while technically there are some not so exciting parts， there are many important things that happen during this volume that have an impact on the rest of the series。 This volume was so entertaining， mostly because the version I read had a lot of swearing in it lol。 This will go down as one of my favorite mangas and animes ever and I know that for a fact。 I'll be recommending this to people ALL THE TIME。 So if you're reading this， consider this a recommendation to you！！ Please read this， it's worth your time。 The art style， the characters arcs， and just the plot， in general， is so innovative and creative that I couldn't imagine coming up with a story this big and expansive。 Hiromu Arakawa is such a creative genius and I loved every second while reading this。 Happy Reading！！ 。。。more

The fight with Scar leaves Edward's arm destroyed and Al’s body ravaged。 The brothers decide to make a trip home to see Edward’s mechanic， Winry， but with Scar on the loose and Ed not able to perform alchemy， Major Armstrong has volunteered to escort the boys。 Armstrong is the "Strong Arm Alchemist。" On their way home， Armstrong recognizes an alchemist and doctor he served with during the Ishvalan Civil War。 Their encounter leads Ed to information on the gruesome nature of Philosopher Stones。 T The fight with Scar leaves Edward's arm destroyed and Al’s body ravaged。 The brothers decide to make a trip home to see Edward’s mechanic， Winry， but with Scar on the loose and Ed not able to perform alchemy， Major Armstrong has volunteered to escort the boys。 Armstrong is the "Strong Arm Alchemist。" On their way home， Armstrong recognizes an alchemist and doctor he served with during the Ishvalan Civil War。 Their encounter leads Ed to information on the gruesome nature of Philosopher Stones。 Their further investigation brings the brothers to a mysterious lab guarded by vicious armored men， and a lot of debate about what makes someone human。This volume provides a lot of background knowledge on Ed and Al without breaking up the narration。 With their trip home to see Winry and Granny， many details of the Elric's childhood are revealed to Major Armstrong （and the reader） while progressing the present-day storyline。 Arakawa also has a wonderful ability to revive hope for her characters in ways that are not cliché or cheesy。 The chapters in this volume also represent a shift in the tone of the story。 One of the great things about this series is the moral conversations that take place， and those begin in this volume。 We also get into the darker side of the storyline， and the art shifts to reflect that。 The lab scenes are drawn particularly dark to match the seriousness of what is being discussed。 Arakawa's use of shading and inverted colors are exceptional in that chapter。Some of the content and moral discussions may be a little too heavy for younger audiences， but a mature middle school student will be able to read this series and wonder these same questions that Edward has。Sara's Rating: 10/10Suitability Level: Grades 7-12Read more graphic novel reviews at www。graphiclibrary。org。 。。。more
