The story follows two brothers, Edward and Alphonse Elric , who learn alchemy in order to bring back their deceased mother. After a terrible miscalculation, however, the two brothers pay a terrible price with Alphonse even losing his body and linking his soul to a suit of armor.

Bones' first attempt in successfully ran for 51 episodes, but was marred by fans for its pacing issues and deviations from the original source.

FMAday pic. Lads it's FMA day. Don't do as the Elrics do and burn your house down.

Happy FMAday pic. Can We Get This Framed? Here's everything you need to know about the phrase's significance and why fans are sharing it across the internet. Fullmetal Alchemist is an anime and manga series written and illustrated by Hiromu Arakawa. Set in a fictional universe where alchemy is a widespread technique used by various individuals, it follows two brothers named Edward and Alphonse Elric. After losing their mother to illness, they vow to figure out a way to use alchemy, like their estranged father, to bring her back.
Obviously, being as they're young, this is a concept they don't quite understand just yet. They decide to perform an alchemic ritual in a bid to call their mother's soul back to her body, which fails miserably with disastrous results. Instead of bringing their mother back to life, they end up losing parts of themselves. Older brother Edward loses his arm and leg, and Alphonse loses his entire body. It's a reminder not to forget the day Ed and Al turned their backs on a life they could never go back to.

While he only watched the two anime adaptations, it is something we can bond over, discuss and love together. And considering how well we usually get along, that is something major. I could go on and revisit so many awesome, hilarious, poignant and downright tragic moments that I had with this series. To put it simply: Fullmetal Alchemist holds an enormous place in my heart and I highly recommend anyone check it out.
