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.
