Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood

The second series of FMA, dubbed as Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood started airing in Asia.  If you got Animax, you can watch it in subtitles.

It follows the adventures of brother alchemists Edward and Alphonse Elric in their quest to recover their original bodies, after they performed a taboo in alchemy – human transmutation…

This series starts from the beginning and in a way follows the flow of the manga – unlike its predecessor.

So far, it has a good story and a fresh retelling.  If you have already watched and finished the first series, or are currently reading the manga, you won’t get bored with this one.

One thing to look forward to is the Eastern country of Xing’s alchemy, which was not mentioned in the first series.  I am also anticipating a few changes with the villains, if they will follow the manga.

Here is the opening song of the series, Again by Yui.
