Article excerpt

It’s been over 16 years since Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhoodaired its pitch-perfect finale, and it’s still regarded as one of anime’s greatest triumphs, shonen or otherwise. Based on Hiromu Arakawa’s 27-volume manga, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood chronicles the heroic adventures of the Elric brothers, Edward and Alphonse, who are in search of the fabled Philosopher's Stone. This magical relic has the power to restore their compromised states and bring a sense of order to a world increasingly governed by alchemy and the defining principle of equivalent exchange.
