Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood
When they were young alchemists in training, Edward and Alphonse Elric tried to perform a forbidden ritual to bring their mother back to life. The thing they brought back was barely human and had to be killed; the price the brothers paid for fooling with powers beyond them was high. Edward lost an arm and a leg and Alphonse lost his entire body only to have his soul transferred to a hulking, but empty, suit of armor. If this delightful anime only followed the Elric brothers on their quest to get their complete bodies back, it would be worth every penny. Because it does that and more, involving many weird and wonderful adventures the brothers have along the way, it’s a set to be savored. The voice-acting is top notch, the stories are intricate and entertaining and the art is brilliant (especially in the Blu-ray edition). If you are new to the wonderful world of anime, this is the perfect place to start.
