Summary:
Two brothers lose their mother to an incurable disease. With the power of "alchemy", they use taboo knowledge to resurrect her. The process fails, and as a toll for using this type of alchemy, the older brother, Edward Elric loses his left leg while the younger brother, Alphonse Elric loses his entire body. To save his brother, Edward sacrifices his right arm and is able to affix his brother's soul to a suit of armor. With the help of a family friend, Edward receives metal limbs - "automail" - to replace his lost ones. With that, Edward vows to search for the Philosopher's Stone to return the brothers to their original bodies, even if it means becoming a "State Alchemist", one who uses his/her alchemy for the military.

For those of you who saw the first FMA, this version is a whole new experience to what you've already seen. Like every good remake, it brings high quality animation along with entertainment for hours. The best part of all is that it brings little to no fillers. If you're a straight-to-the-point guy with plenty of action and comedy on the side, then it doesn't matter what type of anime you like, this one is a must watch.
