Thoughts

Fullmetal Alchemist is one of my favorite stories and deeply shaped my childhood. I learned Japanese so that I could read the monthly releases. Arakawa is somehow a master of character development, world building, and deep, consequential storytelling.

This isn’t one to miss, even if you’re not into manga. If you prefer this in television form, watch Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.
