The Elric Brothers are particularly talented in Alchemy. However, after the death of their mother, they attempt human alchemy to bring her back to life; the process turns out to be a failure. Alphonse, the younger brother, loses his body while Edward loses his arm during their mother's transmutation. Both of them set off on their journey to find the philosopher's stone, reputed to be the most powerful alchemy tool. The stone allows the one who posesses it to bypass the natural laws of alchemy and obtain what they want; and there is something the Elric brothers want the most - their bodies.The Full Metal Alchemist is a well-made japanime. The story gets more and more complicated as the episodes fly by. It manages to translate words, images and sounds into deep emotions. My favourite.
