This anime is based on the Fullmetal Alchemist manga by Hiromu Arakawa and revolves around two brothers, Edward and Alphonse Elric. Due to their father being a very gifted alchemist, the boys themselves began to show signs of having the same capabilities , at a young age. The main plot is driven by the boys' quest for the famous, Philosopher's Stone, but along the way, they discover a deep government conspiracy aimed at keeping the properties of the Philosopher's Stone, a secret.
Let me begin by saying that even if you are not a fan of anime, this is one that you should definitely check out. Not only does it have strong, amazing characters but the action sequences are done brilliantly as well. The series also does a good job of portraying moral conflicts of various characters, both the good and the bad, and is very interesting to watch them overcome obstacles. The viewer may find themselves invested in the characters before they even realise it and with each episode, become more curious as to what's going to happen.
It is a really fun show, but at the same, possess the right amount of suspense and thrill, in terms of the plot and the characters. The series aims for the depth of human emotion and will have the viewer hooked from the start. Even more so was the perfect ending; the finale felt like closure to this 64-episode series and nothing was left unanswered.
I know I did not mention any negative points, but that is simply I did not find one big enough that was worth mentioning. Of course, each viewer may have thoughts as to what they thought were drawbacks of the show but I can't come up with anything major.
Happy binge-watching!
