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.

This anime is absolutley brilliant! The animation is great, and the storyline is original :D I watched Fullmetal alchemist before brotherhood, and i honestly though brotherhood was a sequel, but i'm kinda glad it wasn't xD Well all i can say is that i'm going to fail my test because of this anime, spent two nights watching the whole thing, cause it was just that great and entertaining. The only downside was the fact that al and ed still sounded like kids after all those years, but hey, can't really imagine them with different voices xD Go watch it and then go love it :D
