⇓ Synopsis ⇓
Fullmetal Alchemist is one of the best action comedy anime on this list.
“In order to gain something, you will lose something of equal value.”
Alchemy Law revolves around Equivalent Exchange—something the young brothers Edward and Alphonse Elric only realize after attempting human transmutation: the one forbidden act of alchemy.
They pay a terrible price for their transgression—Edward loses his left leg, Alphonse his physical body.
It is only by the desperate sacrifice of Edward’s right arm that he is able to affix Alphonse’s soul to a suit of armor.
Sad and alone, it is the hope that they would both eventually return to their original bodies that give Edward the inspiration to obtain metal limbs called “automail” and become a state alchemist, the Fullmetal Alchemist.
Consequently, three years of searching later, the brothers seek the Philosopher’s Stone, a mythical relic that allows an alchemist to overcome the Law of Equivalent Exchange.
Even with military allies Colonel Roy Mustang, Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, and Lieutenant Colonel Maes Hughes on their side, the brothers find themselves caught up in a nationwide conspiracy that leads them not only to the true nature of the elusive Philosopher’s Stone but their country’s murky history as well.
In between finding a serial killer and racing against time, Edward and Alphonse must ask themselves if what they are doing will make them human again…
or take away their humanity.
