Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)

So if you know nothing about FMA then i'm sure you've heard of it cause its really popular right now, and for good reason! There are three-ish versions of FMA and today we shall tell you about the first one, the manga.

Fullmetal Alchemist is a brilliant manga series by Hiromu Arakawa. I say that the manga is brilliant because the art work isn't your typical style, (its better). If you are interested in becoming a cartoonist, or any kind of artist, then you need to check out FMA just for the art work. The story, though long and confusing like most mangas, is interesting and gripping. And though the characters at first seem like every other manga characters if you read a lot of the series you can actually tell have they've grown. Funny, gory, full of cool action and magic! The series is still on going at the moment, but a few comments by Hiromu Arakawa indicate that it soon could be coming to an end. WHICH WOULD BE SO SAD!

The story is about these two brothers in search of the philosophers stone in order to reclaim their original bodies. Which they lost, by the way, when they tried to bring their mother back from the dead with alchemy. You're thrown right into the story and over a while find out the past these boys have had.

Full of a great cast of characters, a never ending story that you're happy about, FMA is a must read manga! Seriously, if you've seen any of the anime then you should still read the manga cause its way better.
