One of my favorite Anime is Fullmetal Alchemist. It is one
of the most well written shows I have ever watched. The reason I love it so
much is because it has some of the best character development I have ever
watched. The show is about a boy and his brother who perform a spell to bring
their mother back that goes horribly wrong. In a series of events, Edward loses
an arm and a leg and his brother Al loses his entire body. Edward saves Al by
putting Al’s soul into a suit of armor. The show revolves around the brothers
trying to get back what they lost or at the least, make sure no one would
suffer the same fate. The brothers use various forms of transmutation to combat
the mysterious forces that chase them so they will not find the secrets around
the recipe for a philosopher’s stone. The things that chase them are based after
the seven deadly sins. Throughout the show, Edward grows in his understanding
of the world as he realizes that the nation he fights for is the ones who hold
the secrets behind the Philosopher’s stone. When Edward and Al learn how a
Philosopher’s stone is made they conclude that no innocent life or soul is
worth it to make one. The show touches mostly moral dilemmas by introducing characters
that come from all around the world inside the story. Because of this, I love
the Show and highly recommend it.
