the best in my book

Whenever someone asks me what anime I'd recommend, without any hesitation I say Fullmetal Alchemist. This anime totally captivated me that I watch it in great concentration, not wanting to miss any word or action. The characters are well thought of and are memorable. Each episode is substantial, indispensable, and just makes you want to see the next one- immediately. I wouldn't be embarrassed to say I sacrificed sleep, skipped a few meals and cried several times for this. The dialogues are not always direct but they're always witty. I think it's safe to say this one isn't for young children. To watch FMA just for the sake of entertainment would be a waste. You need to think and feel to fully appreciate this show- and it's well worth it. Moving on to the animation, I would say top notch. The sequences are smooth and fluid, you won't go wondering whether they're out of budget or what. If you want something truly unique and intriguing, something that would play with your emotions and challenge your morals, this is your anime.
