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.

One of the best Anime's around, amazing story, very cool fights, and it looks amazing. If you need to pass some time this is an excellent anime. If you have seen FMA before ( this is a remake which is following the manga more closely) you will still be entertained. The first few episodes are more or less the same as FMA but after that it is a completely different anime.
