Antagonist Scar joins the cast, along with several other fan favorites who didn’t make it into the first film.
Fullmetal Alchemist
Seriously, it’s been a long, long time since these series aired, and now we feel really old.
Director of Fullmetal Alchemist thinks fans have twice as many series as they really need.
How does one turn a nearly 70-episode anime into a movie? The answer is you can’t. No one can.
Hit anime/manga Fullmetal Alchemist characters Edward and Alphonse Elric have transformed again, but this time it’s not the result of alchemy.
Anime heroes Roy Mustang, Riza Hawkeye, and Winry Rockbell featured in English-subtitled trailer.
When making her professional debut, manga creator Hiromi Arakawa decided to work under the masculine-sounding pen name Hiromu Arakawa. The choice was probably made under the logic that a male author would be more easily accepted by the predicted male fanbase of the action-adventure stories Arakawa was crafting.
In the end, though, all of that worrying was probably unnecessary. Male readers have no issue with Arakawa’s gender because she can produce awesome adventure stories, and her series have enjoyed broad crossover appeal with female manga readers as well. As a matter of fact, so many of Arakawa’s fans are women that there are now two pairs of pumps inspired by her most successful series, Fullmetal Alchemist.
