Description:
As the chaos surrounding the quest for the Philosopher’s Stone boils over, Edward Elric is left to face his destiny and bear the burdens of his actions alone. Scar, determined to reenact the horrors of the past, must be stopped at all cost. But when those who sought to save lives are instead sought as fugitives of the State, the Elric brothers will be forced to flee…
Alliances shift and factions fracture as undeniable truths glare in the light of day and the rumor of civil war drives unrest. And yet all seek the Philosopher’s Stone. Al has been changed into something impossible to comprehend and as the brothers are separated, his suit of armor begins to disintegrate. Ed has precious little time left to find his sibling. These weary young men have traveled a long and difficult path, seeking to regain what was lost. Enemies have been toppled, friends have been buried and the State will be remade. Even the one inevitable truth will be called into question – The Law of Equivalent Exchange.

These episodes bring the Fullmetal Alchemist series to its appropriately moving climax. Director Seiji Mizushima and screenwriter Shou Aikawa ratchet up the emotional intensity as they draw together the threads of the narrative, beginning with the terrible night when Al and Ed tried to resurrect their mother. In Liore, Scar uses the arcane knowledge of the Ishbalans and the lives of hundreds of soldiers to create a Philosopher's Stone. But the Elric Brothers have no time to explore its power: The Homunculi and the Military are circling them like sharks. Complicating matters further is the appearance of Hohenheim of Light, the boys' long-lost father. Newly promoted General Mustang and Major Armstrong launch a revolt against King Bradley as disagreements among the Homunculi escalate into violence. Alphonse tries to learn how to use the Philosopher's Stone to aid his brother, asking the despicable Shou Tucker for instruction. The fate of their world (and, possibly, this one) is at stake as Ed and Al are put to the ultimate test: If they fail, the Homunculi will continue their murderous rampage. But Fullmetal Alchemist isn't just a simple good versus evil story, as revelations about the origins of Envy and the role of Hohenheim prove. A truth even greater than the law of Equivalent Exchange prevails: the love between Alphonse and Edward Elric. The skillful blend of drama, adventure, and comedy make Fullmetal Alchemist a truly noteworthy series in the history of anime, one whose influence is sure to be felt for years to come. At the end of the last disc, viewers may feel the sort of emptiness readers experience when Sherlock Holmes goes over Reisenbach Falls. But the final episodes set up the feature, The Conqueror of Shamballa and Hiromu Arakawa's manga continues. (Rated TV PG: violence, grotesque imagery, nudity, tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

I purchased the whole series and the movies. The only problem with it is that there weren't more episodes. It is the perfect blend of suspense, fantasy, adventure, drama, love, sacrifice, dedication, suffering, reward, deception, cruelty, compassion, etc...__I was surprised at the depth of this anime. Even grown ups will like this one.

Full Metal Alchemist is one of those amazing animes that make you feel every emotion. You'll feel anger, happiness, disbelief and you'll end up laughing your head off (usually when Edward is being called short). I love this anime series and it's easily on the top ten list of my favorite animes of all time. This show is definitely worth buying!

"One of the greatest series of all time." This is a title that is thrown around quite often in the world of anime. And numerous times I often found myself wondering what all the hype was about. After watching Fullmetal Alchemist again. I see what all the hype was about and to me, it is one of the greatest series ever. And could easily fit into my top ten list. Which I haven't even got around to create(I need to see another three hundred series and movies to cook up that list).

Fullmetal Alchemist is simply one of the most amazing anime titles in existence. It's well animated, brilliantly thought out, and highly entertaining. The phychological and ethical issues within the story are well related to the struggles of real life. The messages and morals hidden in the show are wonderful. The characters are bright and vibrant, and the bittersweet ending makes it more believable than a sappy "happily ever after". It's hopeful, heartfelt and, once again, briliant.

I am sure that this would have been a great set, if Amazon ever actually delivered it to me. They shipped it to an old address and then said I could reorder it for twice what I originally ordered it for. Needless to say I am buying it elsewhere.
