Even though we didn’t get any of the big plot stuff, I loved this! First off, we finally got to the reveal of October 3rd! Also Rush Valley was so cool, even though the mechanics were a bit annoying. The appreciation for pregnant women and giving birth was handled so beautifully, especially tying it to the principles of alchemy. And we met the Elrics’ teacher! Izumi my love <3. Truly the woman of all time. The scene at the end was really something though, huh? Can’t wait to see what happens!

I dunno if it's the same in others but in my translation a black character gets compared to a monkey😬 And a female black character is described as "manly."palmkd's review against another edition

Fullmetal Alchemist is the story of the Alphonse and Edward Elric. After an alchemic transmutation gone wrong, Ed and Al are on a mission to get back their original bodies. This is one of my favorite anime series and I'm really enjoying finally reading the manga.
Winry joins the brothers on a trip and we learn even more about automail! Most of this story takes place in Rush Valley where as always, the brothers find themselves in some trouble. We also get a little bit of a peek into the boys upbringing and learn some about their former teacher.
