This page deals with the 2003 series that diverged from the manga early on. For Hiromu Arakawa's original manga and its direct anime adaptation (titled Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood), please see Manga.Fullmetal Alchemist.Brothers Edward and Alphonse Elric live in a world where alchemy is possible, though governed by the law of Equivalent Exchange ("to obtain, something of equal value must be lost"). As young boys, the Elrics — who showed promise in alchemy at an early age — lost their mother; in their grief, they attempted to bring her back to life via the forbidden practice of human transmutation. Ed and Al paid a steep price for their hubris: the former lost an arm and a leg (which were replaced with mechanical limbs), while the latter became a soul attached to an empty suit of armor.The Elrics' quest to return their bodies to normal leads to the pursuit of the Philosopher's Stone, an artifact believed to allow alchemists to perform any form of alchemy (including human transmutation) without the necessary Equivalent Exchange. In order to make real progress in their search, Ed becomes a State Alchemist, working for the government to help solve their problems while he and Al research the Stone's existence. During their adventures, Ed and Al discover startling truths about their world, alchemy, the Philosopher's Stone, their own family, and the forces working to manipulate the Elrics' search and lead them towards the Stone for a much more sinister purpose than what the brothers have in mind.This show Overtook the Manga about halfway through its run, but rather than running numerous filler episodes to make up for it, the anime's writers consulted with Hiromu Arakawa to craft a wholly different ending to the story. The approach makes this show a Pragmatic Adaptation, but one made with approval from (and the encouragement of) the original mangaka. A theatrical film — Fullmetal Alchemist: The Conqueror of Shamballa — resolved a number of plot threads left hanging after this show's conclusion.A Recap page can be found HERE.

Rape as Drama
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_12dd1d4c
comment
Episode 40: Ed learns that Scar is planning on luring the military to Lior to transmute them into a Philosopher's Stone and that Rose was captured and gang-raped by a group of soldiers sometime during the previous raid (impregnating her and traumatizing her to the point that she can't speak). Lyranote actually Dante using her body as a vessel returns and plans to help Scar and Rose with the endeavor. King Bradley is revealed to be a Homunculus (Pride, specifically) and kills Marta. Yeah, this is the point where things start looking really grim...

Darker and Edgier
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_14beeefd
comment
Darker and Edgier: Compared to the manga and Brotherhood: The story is much more slowly paced and somber instead of bombastic and action-packed like Brotherhood and the manga. The fights are short and brutal rather than large and epic. Villains are more down-to-earth, while some of the heroes are more morally grey. Barry the Chopper is mostly Played for Horror, compared to the manga, where he's used more for dark comic relief. Envy is more intelligent, more competent, and even crueler than his Manga / ''Brotherhood;; counterpart. More good characters die. The Elric brothers have their ideals challenged more often, have to make impossible decisions, and are forced to face unforeseen consequences for their actions. Ed's character development goes in a darker direction, and he eventually becomes willing to kill his foes. Rose is heavily implied to have been raped. Actual Nazis appear instead of just alluded to. The ending is far more Bittersweet, with Ed and Al separated from each other in different worlds, although resolved to reunite someday. The finale movie, The Conqueror of Shamballa, adds a whole new flavor of bittersweet, with Ed and Al reunited with each other but permanently separated from all of their friends.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Obvious allusions to Nazism, Catholicism, imperialism in the Middle East, and to colonialism tout court. Ishbalans even offer striking parallels with Native North Americans. The Ishbalans were originally based on the Ainu, but also seemed to have allusions to the Middle East and Islam (Ishbalans are monotheists and have similar beliefs). Odds are that they were based on several different Truth in Television parallels. Despite the similarity of certain Amestrian religions to Christianity, it is mentioned that Christianity ceased to be practiced in Amestris several centuries ago, presumably around when alchemy first became successful, causing the split between their timeline and that of the world on the other side of the gate—that is, early-20th-century Europe.

Death Means Humanity

comment
Death Means Humanity: Lust angsts quite a bit about her existence as a homunculi and longs to be human again. Re-establishing connections with Scar, the brother to her human self's deceased fiancee, slowly pushes her to make a Heel–Face Turn and eventually decide to help the Elric brothers defeat Wrath. He finds out however and stabs her to death for betraying him. Dying, Lust realizes, makes her feel more human than anything and she accepts her death.

Theotech: The show involves an extradimensional portal known as the Gate of Truth, which is emblazoned with the Arber Sephirotheca and implied to house God itself, though Christianity itself is implied to be a dead religion due to the proliferation of Alchemy allowing anyone to perform seeming miracles. This coincides with the advanced technology like armblades and advanced artillery.

Nigh-Invulnerability: Homunculi are not impervious to damage anymore than a normal human is, but can regenerate it right away. (Though the rate of regeneration seems to vary between them, e.g. Pride is able to regenerate almost instantaneously, while Wrath's regenerative abilities seem considerably less developed, and Lust falls somewhere in between.) They don't have great armor, just tons and tons of Hit Points, with the specific exception of Greed, whose special trick is turning his body into super-armor.

Adaptational Villainy
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_20f689e9
comment
Adaptational Villainy: Basque Grande. Though, it's kind of justified since he's a Posthumous Character in the manga. Scar to an extent. While in the manga, he eventually becomes an Anti-Hero, in this version, he never really shakes his Anti-Villain status. His last act is to complete a transmutation circle that causes the deaths of thousands of soldiers to create a Philosopher's Stone. Hohenheim gets hit by this as well, since his nature as a Body Snatcher means he's responsible for the 'deaths' of every person whose body he's inhabited on top of the people killed to make the Philosopher's Stone he uses to perform the transfer. Fuhrer Bradley, who is now Pride in this version, lacks the Noble Demon traits that his manga counterpart had and is noticeably more arrogant, sadistic, and cruel, with his last action before a fiery death by Mustang, is to strangle and straight up kill his kid, while ranting about how humans are foolish.

Adaptation Expansion
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_23473ae7
comment
Adaptation Expansion: While the first half of the series follows the broad narrative of the first six manga volumes, including some moments shot for panel, it's much more slowly paced. This means that stories from these chapters are explored in much greater depth and often have original scenes and character moments; of particular note are the Lior arc, Ed's State Alchemist entrance exam, Nina's story, the Elrics' journey back to Risembool with Armstrong, the Lab 5 arc, and Al's doubts about his origins after his fight with Barry the Chopper. Justified, since the series had only scarce source material during its production and was trying to use the published volumes for all they were worth. The writers also cleverly used these differences to plant the seeds of plot points, character arcs, and themes that would come into play for the original storyline of the anime's second half. Compared to her relatively early death and lack of relevance in the manga aside from maiming Havoc and Roy, Lust is given an Adaptational Backstory Change, Adaptational Personality Change, and a surprisingly expanded role, eventually dealing with internal conflict about her prior villanous actions, and occasionally discussing or figuring out her changing personal philosophy with Ed, Sloth, Envy, Scar and original characters. Episode 13, "Fullmetal vs. Flame", combines two side stories (Ed vs. Roy and Fury finding a home for Hayate), a 4-koma ("TINY MINISKIRTS!!!"), and Ed's search for information regarding Dr. Marcoh. Hughes appears a bit earlier and is more prominent than in the manga, having a parental role towards the Elric brothers. His death scene also ended up far longer and more dramatic.

In Medias Res: The story begins in the middle of Ed and Al's search for the Philosopher's Stone and Ed's career as a State Alchemist. The next seven episodes are a flashback to show how they got there, building up to the time period of the first two episodes. It's framed as Al explaining his and Ed's backstory to Rose.

Also appearing in the series at various points (presumably as Easter Eggs): a string of modern real-world flags, not at all early-20th-century-looking comic books, and Snyder's pretzels. Rather, those are probably meant to show that time doesn't flow linearly in the Gate. Both Ed and Hohenheim see the bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima before they happen, after all.

Mythology Gag: Ling Yao and Xiao-Mei appeared as cameos. Hiromu Arakawa's self-caricatures (in which she depicts herself as a bespectacled cartoon cow) make cameo appearances in a couple of late episodes. Episode 43 is titled "Stray Dog," the same title as Hiromu Arakawa's 1999 one-shot manga, which is widely regarded as a Fullmetal Alchemist prototype. Envy taunts Ed and Al by falsely implying that Hohenheim is the Homunculi's master. When this series first aired, it seemed like that was indeed the case in the manga, but it turned out to be a Red Herring.

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: General Halcrow. In his first appearance, he seems like a decent enough guy, at least a family man who loves his wife and kids. But when he is put in charge of putting down Cornello's cult in Leore, he quickly shows his cruelty in deliberately leaving Rose to be raped by soldiers. He later attempts to seize power when Bradley is indisposed. He also has a grudge against the Elric brothers because he feels they used him to become state alchemists (which is technically true. Roy put them on the same train as him knowing that terrorists would probably take it over, and having the Elrics save the day would be useful leverage to convince Halcrow to ignore the fact that they are too young to join by normal standards.

Cursed with Awesome
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_309b8806
comment
Cursed with Awesome: Edward's automail, Steampunk prosthetics which offer full mobility but presumably require constant maintenance. They give him an advantage in combat, as they are sturdy, disposable, transmutable and throw off opponents, but they are still prosthetics—meaning he had to lose his right arm and left leg to begin with—and a constant reminder of the price he and his brother paid for trying to resurrect the dead. Scar's right arm, which is tattooed with a transmutation circle, but which can only take apart things, whereas a normal alchemical circle deconstructs something and puts it back together in a desirable shape. Scar dislikes it due to how the arm is a transplant from his brother, who thus sacrificed himself to save Scar, and how it utilizes alchemy which is taboo to Scar's people, the Ishbalans. The homunculi, who are practically immortal and possess amazing superpowers, yet bitterly resent their existence and supernatural forms. Likewise with Al and the other souls-bonded-to-suits found in Laboratory 5, who are likewise, almost immortal and yet, with the exception of Al, see themselves as not-human. Lust even compares the two situations when trying to explain to Ed why she wants to become human.

Gentle Giant: Al and Armstrong: the former has a very sweet heart (since he is a kid), but he's bound to a giant set of armor that can intimidate others; the latter is more than willing to fight for the side of good and he has the large, muscly build to prove it.

Death is Cheap: Very much Averted. The fact that it is not cheap (in a literal sense) is the reason Ed and Al are missing body parts. They didn't pay enough when trying to bring their mom back.

 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_3ac583f4
comment
Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism: This series is more towards the center of the scale rather than the idealism of the manga. The central thesis of the series is that you may work very hard, but you might not get what you want in the end. But that doesn't mean it isn't worth it to try, and that the struggle is an inherent part of life.

comment
Schizo Tech: The world mixes 1920s tech with alchemy and cybernetic limbs. And full-body prosthetics. Clothing and morals are also (relatively) modern, where turn-of-the-century outfits coexist with gender equality. Also, there's a lack of aircraft. Which serves as a plot point in the ending as well as The Movie. Firearms are also reminiscent of both The '50s and the Vietnam War, compared to the WW2 guns in the manga.

Early Installment Character-Design Difference: Hohenheim and Kimblee hadn't properly debuted in the manga yet when the series aired. Thus, their appearances here were based on early concept art from Arakawa and look different from the manga and Brotherhood note  Hohenheim has darker hair, a rounder face with softer edges on his beard, and wears a different outfit. Kimblee has spikier hair that he wears in braids, not a ponytail, and he lacks his trademark white suit and fedora. .

Not Even Bothering with the Accent
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_43b154c9
comment
Not Even Bothering with the Accent: The Earth scenes in The Conqueror of Shamballa, where everyone speaks without an accent (despite taking place in the Weimar Republic). Possibly justified in that having the cast speak with German accents might distract from the plot and that it could be a case of Translation Convention. Though it's averted with the ending of the series, which does have Dr. Haushoffer speaking with a clearly German accent. It's justified there as he's meant to be speaking accented English.

Historical Hilarity: Fritz Lang shows up in The Movie and acts as a genial comic relief mentor to Ed. He correctly guesses that Ed is not a native of Earth and discusses the subject of parallel words with him at one point, wondering what his otherworldly double would be like. Ed gives him a sideways look but doesn't let on his counterpart is a genocidal war criminal dictator: King Bradley aka Pride. Makes sense, given that Lang was Jewish and his counterpart is basically the alternate universe version of Adolf Hitler. The alias he uses is even "Dr. Mabuse."

Constructed World
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_458c7e61
comment
The world of Amestris is one for our world. The exact diverging point is unknown, but it was apparently caused by humanity choosing to focus on the development of alchemy instead of natural sciences like our world. Christianity also used to exist in the alchemic world but faded when the practice of alchemy grew, and Hohenheim & Dante began their relationship during the Black Plague. This is a major change from the manga/Brotherhood, which took place in a Constructed World where the parallels of Amestris to 20th century Europe were just that, parallels.

Characterization Marches On
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_479f9ad0
comment
Characterization Marches On: Part of Ed's character arc is about how he becomes more jaded and prepared to kill than he was earlier in the show. For instance, when he accidentally kills Greed, he breaks down sobbing over Greed's corpse, yet later on he kills Sloth, the homunculus of his own mother, with cold efficiency. However, this character arc completely ignores the fact that he accidentally killed a one off villain in the 4th episode of the show when he was only about 12 years old, but it didn't seem to phase him at all. It is established later that he did in fact feel guilty about it, but this isn't shown at all within the episode that it occurs in at all.

Become a Real Boy: The homunculi, in some way, wished they were similar to humans. Lust, in particular, has a fixation on this when her past is revealed. Many of Sloth's actions also revolve around asserting herself as a different person from her "original version," Trisha.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: For the first dozen episodes or so, the writers don't all seem to be on the same page regarding the laws of alchemy and particulars of Amestris, leading to such oddities as alchemy being used on remote targets, Ed knocking Al into a river without concern for his blood seal, signs appearing in Japanese, a reference to alchemy use causing physical exhaustion that is never mentioned again, and Ed transmuting flowers out of snow. One particular error in the broadcast version, wherein Ed discovers he can use alchemy without a transmutation circle by punching his fist, was even modified for the DVD release (to a shot of Ed clasping his palms together). In the fourth episode, "A Forger's Love", Ed ends up killing the villain, Majhal, by flinging Majhal's sword into the air, where it then impales him when it lands. Ed has virtually no reaction to having committed manslaughter, despite later having a screaming meltdown when he accidentally kills Greed. It is possible that since Majhal's death was a freak accident, and Ed wasn't actively trying to kill him like he was with Greed, it didn't affect him as much. However, his complete lack of reaction is still atypical given his previously established morals. Early episodes have obvious leftovers from the manga. For example, Edward appears to have a crush on Winry in early episodes, but they are later depicted as being Like Brother and Sister, though you could argue in-series it went away due to lack of being together and aging. A tiny example would be how in an early episode, when you see Ed reading a book, his eyes are going from right to left, like the Japanese read. However, it is a European setting, and we later see writing in English. Later still, we see him reading with his eyes going left to right.

If You Can Read This: Any book on alchemy shown onscreen is copied from Dungeons & Dragons player's manuals on alchemy. Evidently, Amestris runs on a D20 system. On the other hand, the letter Ed is writing to Winry in episode 7 actually does consist of him boastfully describing his exploits in the State Alchemy Exam (albeit in slightly questionable English) and reveals quite a bit about his character at that point in the story.

Body Horror: Human transmutation takes a part of the alchemist's body; it's how Ed lost his arm and leg. The fate of Tucker, turned into a chimera with his human face oriented upside down. Wrath and his self-transmuting. Dante and Hohenheim's body surfing; over-using it causes their current hosts to start rotting. The more often they change bodies, the more quickly they rot.

Book Ends: The "Humankind cannot gain" speech is narrated by Al throughout the series to reflect what has been learned over the course of the story. Conqueror of Shamballa, after a Batman Cold Open, we're shown a scene of Edward in our world, hitchhiking on a cart full of familiar characters. The film ends the same way, though with Alphonse and Noah joining Ed. The Starter Villain, Cornelo, boldly declares that he is "the closest thing to God." In the second-to-last episode, Bradley responds to Mustang's statement that God doesn't exist by claiming that devils do exist, and they're those who oppose him, effectively placing himself as God.

Adaptational Superpower Change: Runs into this largely thanks to being made while the manga still had a ways to go. Aside from the characters that were effectively original, King Bradley (called Pride, instead of Wrath) can regenerate like the other homunculi, unlike his manga counterpart. Alchemy itself is now powered by the souls of the dead in our world.

Scar's arm. It's initially introduced as simply having the power to deconstruct matter but it also has other functions such as decoding information and feeding it into Scar's brain. Justified as in this adaptation it is an incomplete Philospher's Stone, so it's more complicated than in the manga.

Adaptation Distillation: In the manga, Lust burns down Central Library (offscreen) to prevent the Elric Brothers from finding Dr. Marcoh's notes on the Philosopher's Stone. Soon after, she and Gluttony attack Scar in the sewers of East City, resulting in him destroying the sewers to escape. The anime combines these into a single event: Scar and the Homunculi are both at the library searching for information and in the resulting battle, the building catches fire and burns down.

Central Theme: A few: No matter how much you sacrifice, you can't expect an equivalent reward. Actions have consequences, and they don't just affect you alone. Big or small, you have an effect on other peoples lives. Holding onto the past will only cause you suffering. Faith, whether in religion or ideology, is something people hold onto to make sense of an unfair world.

As it became clear that the anime would actually outpace the manga, Arakawa pitched in to guide the show's storyline in its own direction so it could stand on its own merits.

The Starter Villain, Cornelo, boldly declares that he is "the closest thing to God." In the second-to-last episode, Bradley responds to Mustang's statement that God doesn't exist by claiming that devils do exist, and they're those who oppose him, effectively placing himself as God.

Replacement Goldfish: The homunculi. Wrath and Sloth are a particularly poignant example, as they were made as Replacement Goldfish, and then adopted each other as replacement goldfish for their creators. Earlier, Barry attempted to convince Al that he is one of these, created by Ed. Shou Tucker's guilt over what he did to Nina makes him desperate to make a copy of her. He ends up creating a soulless chimaera that looks like her, and carries it around like a doll.

Big Brother Instinct: This anime could be called Big Brother Instinct: The Show—Ed goes through hell and high water (pretty literally) to try to get Al's body back, Scar eventually more-or-less adopts two Ishbalan boys as younger brothers while haunted by his own brother's choice, the Tringhams are brothers with very similar dynamics to Ed and Al, and even Winry muses on her frustrations of not being able to reach Ed and Al the way she wants as a sister. Then there are the aversions, like Envy.

Graying Morality
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_6a2486cd
comment
Graying Morality: As the series progresses, it starts to deconstruct its original premise and begins painting both the protagonists and antagonists in grayer light (quite literally in some cases, as the color palette becomes noticeably more muted and less vibrant towards the end). Al, the arguably most innocent and naive character, is continually punished for his strict adherence to forgiveness and attempting to find decent means to resolve his problems. Ed, meanwhile, becomes more pragmatic and jaded after killing Greed and obtains greater success in his efforts. On the flip side, the Homunculi, especially Lust, are given significantly more depth and understanding in their motivations, several of them even completely abandoning their original allegiances in order to carve out their own paths.

However, it must be noted that Al was basically a walking Philosopher's Stone at this point. This allowed him to perform the world's first perfect human transmutation.

The Reveal
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_6b2b3b59
comment
The Reveal: Many, some shared with manga, others original. The Philosopher's Stone is created by harvesting human souls. Mustang is the one who (reluctantly) killed Winry's parents during the Ishbalan war, on the orders of Basque Grand. The Homunculi are created from human transmutation and many of them are connected to the main cast in their previous lives. Lust was Scar's sister-in-law. Wrath was Izumi's stillborn son - who happens to be attached to Ed's stolen limbs. "Juliet Douglas," Führer Bradley's attendant, is not only Sloth, but also the Homunculus of Trisha Elric who Ed and Al created when trying to revive their mother. Führer Bradley himself is Pride. Envy was Hohenheim's first son and Ed & Al's half-brother. The Homunculi's master is Dante. She's also a Body Snatcher and whenever Lyra has appeared since episode 34, that was really Dante inhabiting her body. The other side of the Gate of Truth is our world; the souls of the real world's dead flow through the Gate and power alchemy in the world of Amestris.

Specifically Numbered Group: The Big Bad employs a maximum of seven homunculi at any one time, giving them codenames based on the Seven Deadly Sins. This is in contrast to the original manga, where the homunculi are literal embodiments of the Seven Deadly Sins which split off from the Big Bad and thus cannot gain new members (though they can be "rebooted" to some extent).

Episode 50, simply because Ed DIES. So far in this anime, anyone who has died stays dead, period. So when Ed gets stabbed by Envy, a lot of people thought he was really dead. The scenes shortly before that are also a huge game-changer, as they finally reveal what's at the other side of the Gate: our world. Specifically, London in World War I.

Conqueror of Shamballa is a fairly accurate portrayal of the political climate in 1920s Germany. Although there were some obvious deviations from the actual history, they were clearly intentional. The Munich scenes were based on photos taken from the city itself. Also, the firearms used in the same scenes are models that were more or less available in 1923.

Idiot Ball
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_7286e96d
comment
Idiot Ball; Wrath takes Ed's sample of Mrs. Elric's remains into himself to deny Ed using them on Sloth. Wrath fuses with Sloth. Ed and Sloth figure out what is very stupid about this immediately. Sloth even lampshades it! Pride when he strangles Selim for bringing in his Achilles' Heel - giving Mustang the chance to use it against him - rather than telling Selim to run away with it. The fact that he had it in his house and trusted Selim with the key to the safe holding it without any knowledge that it could kill him is full-on Bond Villain Stupidity Unless, of course, he truly believed no one would ever guess his son has his secret, so it would be safer with him. Al has two of these in the final third, like stopping Martel from killing Kimblee, thus making him responsible for everything Kimblee does afterward, and holding on to the idea that Sloth is his mother long after it's clear that she's trying to kill both him and Ed. To be fair on the second one though, even though he knows it's not his mother, Sloth still looks and has memories of her. She even acts like her to toy with the Elric brothers and it happens to work far better on Alphonse. Another instance was in Conqueror of Shamballa. Why didn't he just transfer his soul into a suit of armor again and seal the gate on the other side? It's not like there weren't any lying around. It would have seriously saved the Elric Brothers the trouble of having to leave their loved ones behind (to be fair, this is somewhat justified in that if he had done it, he could have died or end up in horrible condition if his soul was kept split). Dante gets this near the end. When Gluttony's constant whining over Lust's death annoys her, she decides it would be a great idea to sap him of his sentience and turn him into a mindless animal. That in itself isn't too dumb, until you realize that she does this with no fail-safe to keep the cannibal Homunculus who already lacked self-control with sentience docile in-case he got a little hungry. Can you guess how Dante met her demise?

Adaptational Angst Upgrade
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_730d3664
comment
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Both Ed and Mustang have a lot more mental baggage in this continuity than the manga/Brotherhood. In the back half of the story, Ed becomes increasingly weighed down by the consequences of the choices he's made in the first half, particularly involving the fallout of his actions in Lior, and Roy is a lot more burdened by what he did during the war with Ishval. In the immediate aftermath he nearly killed himself, and at present day he's implied to be an alcoholic to cope and occasionally suffers from PTSD episodes. What happens to Nina hits Ed and Al even harder than in the manga/Brotherhood for a couple of different reasons. (1.) they spent several months with the Tucker family instead of just a few days (2.) they're only 12 and 11 when it happens instead of 15 and 14. (3.) Instead of being told about her death afterwards, they run straight into the alley where Nina was killed, a few moments too late to save her, and come face to face with her remains. At that point, Ed breaks down sobbing and tries to transmute Nina back to life.

comment
Fuhrer Bradley, who is now Pride in this version, lacks the Noble Demon traits that his manga counterpart had and is noticeably more arrogant, sadistic, and cruel, with his last action before a fiery death by Mustang, is to strangle and straight up kill his kid, while ranting about how humans are foolish.

Spared by the Adaptation
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_7453bc5b
comment
Shou Tucker is spared death from Scar and therefore a trip to Hell for fusing his daughter Nina with his dog, Alexander. But that doesn't mean he escapes karma beyond jailtime. It's revealed that he was horribly mutated into a chimera himself after one of his experiments rebounded on him. Even more poetic is that accident was one of his many failed attempts to bring Nina back from the dead, showcasing a sense of empathy that his manga lacks. When his attempt to use the Philosopher's Stone only succeeds in creating a souless shell of Nina, Shou suffers a massive mental breakdown and he is last seen scribing Alchemy arrays on the wall and cradling the lifeless Nina doll in his arms, in complete denial that Nina is gone for good and he could do nothing to undo it. A fitting Fate Worse than Death for man who overrode his small conscience for his selfish wants.

Played for Laughs. In the episode "Truth Behind Truths," Edward gets many reminders that being small isn't so bad. At one point he even beats himself up for saying it. Yet when it seems he's finally absorbed the lesson, only a couple of scenes later his height is commented upon and he goes ballistic as usual.

Early episodes have obvious leftovers from the manga. For example, Edward appears to have a crush on Winry in early episodes, but they are later depicted as being Like Brother and Sister, though you could argue in-series it went away due to lack of being together and aging.

Pocket Protector: A boy is saved from a bullet by having a locket with a picture of his deceased mother hidden underneath his shirt. Made more poignant by the fact that this locket had been a point of strife between the boy and his brother, who had held a grudge against their mother for a certain misunderstanding. Adding to the Emotional Torque is that the bullet causes the locket, which was stuck up to that point, to open, its contents clearing up the misunderstanding.

Examples include creating Sloth; overthrowing Cornello and causing a civil war in Lior; shitcanning Yoki, which leads to Lyra going to work for Dante; encouraging Hughes to look into Lab 5/the homunculi; accidentally setting Greed free; finding Dr. Marcoh and exposing him to the homunculi; finding Wrath and letting the homunculi get their hands on him; ect.

Breather Episode: The "Flame Alchemist" Lower-Deck Episode, featuring the zany hijinks of Mustang and his crew (and no Ed or Al), came right as the series was doubling down on the darkness, but before it would be too much of a distraction from the main plot. Much earlier in the series, after the double whammy of episodes 7 and 8, 9 and 10 are much lighter in tone and have little to nothing to do with the overarching plot.

Adaptational Slimness: Edward Elric in the manga and Brotherhood is fairly muscular and hits a large growth spurt near the end. Here, he has a decently muscular but slim build and he doesn't grow nearly as much as he does in manga canon (he's dwarfed by both Noah and Winry in The Movie), making him look more like a Bish�nen than his manga counterpart as a result. Scar is given a younger and more Bish�nen redesign compared to his more muscular manga version.

What Happened to the Mouse?: With Envy, Pride and Greed as the only unambiguous exceptions, a lot of the Homunculi are alluded to be "replacements" for previous ones; Envy refers to Wrath as "the new Wrath" and Lust informs Greed that she's the second among them to bear that name. Greed also implies that there used to be another Sloth, and Envy even states that if Edward kills any of them "you-know-who" will just replace them. We are never shown how the previous ones died.

Deconstruction
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_8ae880f7
comment
Deconstruction: Interestingly, the series serves as something of one for the source material: many of the manga's underpinnings are interrogated more, and the answers provided are often rather cynical. Equivalent Exchange is true for the process of alchemic transmutation, but not outside of it. All life ends in death, no matter what you do while you live, while the world is filled with unjust suffering and unearned privilege. And even then, alchemy is fueled through the deaths of people on the other side of the gate, suggesting there's "waste" that needs to be made up for with Life Energy. The Elric Brothers' Thou Shalt Not Kill rule is portrayed more as naivete, and Ed eventually abandons the principle. The Slicer brothers point out to Ed that sparing an evil person's life can result in greater suffering down the line, as Al discovers firsthand when he saves Kimblee from Marta. Mustang's quest to become Fuhrer is as much about assuaging his own guilt as it is redeeming the sins of Amestris. It's also nigh impossible for a single man to reform an institution designed for evil, while climbing the ranks will mean doing evil yourself. Scar's arc is not about breaking the cycle of revenge like it is in the Manga/Brotherhood; instead of renouncing his vengeance, he continues opposing the Amestrian military until the end. To hammer this in, the series spends more time spotlighting the persecution that Ishvalans face, showing how it's impossible for a besieged minority to placate their oppressors and that resistance is the only option for survival.

Our Homunculi Are Different
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_8e27e5ac
comment
Our Homunculi Are Different: Homunculi here have a different origin than that of the manga, being the artificial body created when a person attempts human transmutation for the purposes of resurrection. They start off as deformed, miserable beings, but after Dante feeds them fragments of Philosopher's Stones, they grown into humanoid forms with unique powers and a strong Healing Factor that makes them nearly immortal. In addition, the artificial Ninas created by Tucker are even closer to more usual depictions of homunculi, being created inside large test tubes. Just like the actual Homunculi, they are said to be soulless.

Laser-Guided Karma
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_90e31482
comment
Laser-Guided Karma: Shou Tucker is spared death from Scar and therefore a trip to Hell for fusing his daughter Nina with his dog, Alexander. But that doesn't mean he escapes karma beyond jailtime. It's revealed that he was horribly mutated into a chimera himself after one of his experiments rebounded on him. Even more poetic is that accident was one of his many failed attempts to bring Nina back from the dead, showcasing a sense of empathy that his manga lacks. When his attempt to use the Philosopher's Stone only succeeds in creating a souless shell of Nina, Shou suffers a massive mental breakdown and he is last seen scribing Alchemy arrays on the wall and cradling the lifeless Nina doll in his arms, in complete denial that Nina is gone for good and he could do nothing to undo it. A fitting Fate Worse than Death for man who overrode his small conscience for his selfish wants. Perhaps a case of Sidewinder Karma - Wrath kills Lust, the only person the manchild-like Gluttony ever cared for. Then Dante inadvertently turns Gluttony into a mindless monster and he gets trapped in the sunken city beneath Central, supposedly never to be seen again. Between the end of the series and The Movie, Wrath pulls a Heel–Face Turn and helps Al to get back to the last place The Gate was seen: the sunken city. Upon their arrival, they're attacked by a monstrous and mutated Gluttony, who's out to kill Wrath for what he did to Lust. Gluttony inflicts a mortal wound on Wrath, but that was Wrath's plan all along. While Gluttony munches on Wrath like a chew toy, Al transmutes both of them to summon the Gate, and Wrath freely accepts his fate.

Adaptational Romance Downgrade: In the manga and its anime adaptation Brotherhood, Ed and Winry have consistent Belligerent Sexual Tension teasing, and they end up becoming an Official Couple with Babies Ever After. In the 2003 anime series, it's hinted they may have had childhood crushes on each other, but time spent apart turns their relationship into more of a brother/sister one. While Roy and Riza have obvious mutual feelings in the manga and Brotherhood, Mustang is oblivious to Riza's clear affections in this continuity and the pair do not end up together.

Villainous Breakdown
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_957e5fc2
comment
Villainous Breakdown: Quite a few of them. Envy flies into a homicidal rage after Dante sends Hohenheim through the Gate, depriving him of the chance to kill him. Wrath flips out after Edward kills his "mother", Sloth (with his help, no less). Gluttony falls into a depression when Ed tells him Wrath killed Lust. In The Movie, Eckhart just loses it all together once she crosses over to Amestris and has her paranoid delusions "confirmed". Dante, the main villain, has one after the final confrontation while trying to flee the scene. She rants angrily about how the Elrics have squandered the Philosopher's Stone, knowing full well that she most likely won't have enough time to create a new one before her current body rots away. To her credit, though, she manages to restrain herself well, even when a mindless Gluttony decides to pop in for a visit... Pride gets into a rage after his adopted son, Selim, brings his remains to him when he was fighting Roy. He proceeds to strangle him, and breaks his neck.

 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_959cb9aa
comment
One Degree of Separation: In this version, a large degree of the characters are tightly interconnected, in part due to a massive difference in how Homunculi are "born." To whit, for major spoilers among some major players, Roy has a connection with Winry, Lust and Scar are in-laws, Wrath is related to Izumi, and Ed and Al have a shocking connection with at least one Homunculi. Hell, even Nina and Elicia are connected by the sheer coincidence of Nina being invited to Ed's birthday party!

"Not So Different" Remark
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_984ef9ef
comment
"Not So Different" Remark: This happens often throughout the first part of the series. In order: Cornello, Majhal, Bald, Tucker, Barry the Chopper, and Psiren. Ed eventually lampshades it. Wrath also invokes this trope a few times, gleefully pointing out how he wound up with Ed's sacrificed arm and leg and how Izumi more or less took him (and Al) on as surrogate sons and Replacement Goldfishes for Wrath—her actual son. Lust also invokes this to counter Ed's not believing her desire to be human since being a homonculi comes with benefits of power and immortality, well so does Al's armor body which Lust points out and how Ed is trying to make him human again despite that.

Gecko Ending
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_9b25f2eb
comment
Gecko Ending: Famously so, though the details are a bit more complex than just "first half faithful, second half original." The anime diverges from the manga from the beginning, though the differences are more subtle at first note the anime rearranges the chronology of the first volume in Episodes 1-9, adapts light novel The Land of Sand for episodes 11-12, combines the comic shorts "Fullmetal vs Flame" and "Dog of the Military?" into episode 13, and significantly expands on the Lab 5 arc and Al's doubts about his origins in episodes 18-24. Episodes 4, 8, 10, and 16 are also anime-exclusive stories. The characters from Lior in the first two episodes also have a Race Lift to be brown-skinned rather than white as they are in the Manga/Brotherhood, which sets up a major plot change later on. The Greed/Dublith arc is where the first significant changes happen note Dante, Wrath, and Archer are introduced, the Homunculi's anime-exclusive origin is revealed, etc., and after that arc ends in Episode 34, the series' narrative becomes totally original. Still, plot points and beats from the manga continue to show up in the anime until the last few episodes note such as Führer Bradley turning out to be a Homunculus and killing Marta by stabbing her through Al's armor, or Ed and Al meeting Hohenheim in Risembool and Ed exhuming his mother's grave. The context of these points is merely altered more significantly in the second half of the series than the first.

Foreshadowing
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_9d12bbc1
comment
Foreshadowing: In episode 12, we learn that the knock off philosopher stones can be mass produced using the life force of dead babies killed by red water. This can be seen as foreshadowing that the real Philosopher's Stone requires human lives to create. Thousands of them. In one of the first appearances of Sloth, before we know anything about her, after she says something, Al says he thought he just heard his mom speaking. Ed tells him he's just shaken up since they just survived a near death encounter. Also, Ed spends a few seconds staring at her in shock the first time he sees her, clearly noticing her resemblance to Trisha. Both Lyra and Hohenheim are noted to wear strong perfume/cologne that have the same nauseating smell. The smell is not from a perfume, but rather from their bodies rotting. For the twist that the show is set in an Alternate History and the Gate of Truth leads to our world: When Ed is dragged into the Gate of Truth, many of the images he sees are historical events from the real world, including an American flag. During his sparring match with Ed in Fullmetal vs Flame, Roy quotes The Art of War. One could initially assume that it's a case of Orphaned Etymology, but with later revelations... When Dante takes Rose underground, they enter what is clearly a Christian chapel, complete with crosses. Dante says it belongs to a religion that was abandoned long ago. In a later scene, Izumi also describes Christianity as a dead religion. She in turn reveals that the Anno Domini calendar system is no longer in use and has to explain to Ed who Christ was. While many details and context are different, the series wound up foreshadowing plot elements from the Manga that hadn't been revealed yet when it aired: Pride is Fuhrer Bradley and Wrath is a Creepy Child. In the manga and Brotherhood, Pride is a Creepy Child and Wrath is Fuhrer Bradley. The Homunculi consume Philosopher's Stones to gain their powers and regeneration. In the manga and Brotherhood, each Homunculus is made from a Philosopher's Stone. The Homunculi orchestrated the Ishvalan genocide as part of their master's Evil Plan. Kimblee is pardoned, has his state alchemist license reinstated, and becomes an agent of the villains. Scar turns Lior into a giant transmutation circle. In the manga and Brotherhood, all of Amestris is a giant transmutation circle. A Homunculus asks for Scar's true name and he tells them that he abandoned it when he began his quest for vengeance. Here it's Lust, in the manga/Brotherhood it's Wrath/King Bradley. Al is made into a living Philosopher's Stone, just like Hohenheim and Father were in the Manga and Brotherhood. The Homunculi's master has an underground base hidden beneath Central city. Lust is pinned to a wall by Dante via metal shards inserted in her nodes. This is quite similar to Greed's first demise in the manga and Brotherhood. Hohenheim reappears while visiting Trisha's grave. He also turns out to be immortal and has a Dark and Troubled Past with the Big Bad that goes back centuries. Ed excavates his mother's grave. A Homunculus gets inside Al's armor and controls him. Here it's Sloth, in the Manga and Brotherhood it's Pride. Envy turns into an enormous green dragon when crossing the gate. This is similar to their lizard-like One-Winged Angel form in the manga and Brotherhood. Mustang's defeat of Pride in the final episode has a lot in common with his defeat of Lust in the Manga and Brotherhood. Both homunculi impale him with their respective weapons during the battle, and both are ultimately killed by Mustang burning them with a transmutation circle drawn on his hand until their regenerative powers are burnt out. Hawkeye emotionally shoots Archer to death after thinking Roy is dead. She does the same in the manga to Lust, but it doesn't work in the latter case. At the end of the anime, Mustang loses an eye. In the manga, he goes completely blind. In the Grand Finale, Al sacrifices himself to save Ed's life then Ed transmutes himself to bring Al back. In the manga and Brotherhood, Al sacrifices his soul to restore Ed's arm in the final battle with Father, then afterward, Ed gives up his ability to perform alchemy to get Al back. Both versions of the story end with Ed riding a train on a new quest for knowledge.

Alternate History

comment
For the twist that the show is set in an Alternate History and the Gate of Truth leads to our world: When Ed is dragged into the Gate of Truth, many of the images he sees are historical events from the real world, including an American flag. During his sparring match with Ed in Fullmetal vs Flame, Roy quotes The Art of War. One could initially assume that it's a case of Orphaned Etymology, but with later revelations... When Dante takes Rose underground, they enter what is clearly a Christian chapel, complete with crosses. Dante says it belongs to a religion that was abandoned long ago. In a later scene, Izumi also describes Christianity as a dead religion. She in turn reveals that the Anno Domini calendar system is no longer in use and has to explain to Ed who Christ was.

Red Eyes, Take Warning

Red Eyes, Take Warning: All Ishbalans have red eyes, but it's subverted because they're nice (if bitter) people. At first this seems to be played straight with Scar, but Ed later realizes that being scared of Scar's red eyes was a racist reflex. More fitting into the trope, the homunculi have reddish-purple eyes.

Future Imperfect
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_ac0f4761
comment
Future Imperfect: An odd example where the "future" is set in our past. The world of Fullmetal Alchemist is in a world parallel to the real world, and the energy for Alchemy comes from our world. And it seems that the story takes place during the time World War 1 was happening in our world. The diverging point seems to have been when humanity decided to focus on Alchemy instead of other sciences. Though it has long since become a forgotten religion, Christianity used to exist, and the various Christian cathedrals have become forgotten ruins with even the heavy reading and researching Ed not knowing who Jesus was.

Demoted to Extra: Team Mustang is less fleshed out in this version, with Hawkeye having only a fraction of the focus and backstory her Manga/Brotherhood counterpart does and the others being little more than comic relief. Some supporting characters, such as Greed, Dr. Marcoh, and Yoki have less focus in this series than in the Manga/Brotherhood, owing to Death by Adaptation. Selim Bradley, who becomes a major character in the manga, appears in only a few scenes and has a completely different identity in this. Lt. General Grumman, who also ends up being an important character in the manga, only appears briefly in a few scenes and has less than five minutes of screentime total.

Adaptational Backstory Change
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_ba46585b
comment
Adaptational Backstory Change: It's a relatively minor change, however in the manga Winry's parents died after Trisha died. In the 2003 anime they died before. This little change causes a big difference in the relationship between the Elric brothers and Winry. Roy killed Winry's parents under government order, instead of a vengeful Scar. This is a major change in Roy's background and causes him a lot of pain. It also affects his relationship with Winry compared to the manga. The Homunculi have a completely different origin. In the manga/Brotherhood, they were all created by the Big Bad from the aspects of his personality they're named for. In the 03 anime, they are created whenever someone attempts human transmutation. They initially start as horrifying living messes of flesh and bone, but upon being fed red stones, they regain their human form. And because of this, many of them are related to other members of the cast. Namely, Lust was Scar's sister-in-law, Wrath was Izumi's son, and Sloth was Ed and Al's mother. And Envy is Ed and Al’s half-brother

Berserk Button: Don't EVER call Ed short. Or imply it. It hurts his feelings, pisses him off, and may end with you being hospitalized and humiliated. And then you'll be ashamed for being beaten by a shrimp. A more dramatic, one-time example: Ed does not take Tucker's "Not So Different" Remark well. Don't ever insult Winry's skills as an automail mechanic. (Or break it. She'll throw a wrench at your head.) Don't get in the way of Envy killing Hohenheim or make fun of him for it. Just mentioning Hohenheim in front of him will piss him off. If you're a State Alchemist, do not get in Scar's way. This changes after his Character Development, but he will make an exception for Kimblee.

Minor Crime Reveals Major Plot: Whether we're talking about the Elric Brothers' human transmutation attempt to revive their mother or Maes Hughes getting killed because He Knows Too Much, we end up coming into some horrifying revelations not only about the power in Amestris being secretly controlled by a body-snatching bitch and her set of homunculi created from such attempts at bringing loved ones Back from the Dead as Ed and Al's own mother, but also about the very nature of alchemy in itself being Powered by a Forsaken Child.

Parasitic Immortality: Dante and Hohenheim are immortal former lovers who used the Philosopher's Stone to cheat death by jumping into new bodies. Each time that they do this, parts of their souls chip off, causing the new bodies to decay faster and necessitating quicker transfers. Eventually Hohenheim got tired of this existence, opting to use his last life to settle down and raise a family as best he could. Dante had other ideas.

New Powers as the Plot Demands: Scar's arm. It's initially introduced as simply having the power to deconstruct matter but it also has other functions such as decoding information and feeding it into Scar's brain. Justified as in this adaptation it is an incomplete Philospher's Stone, so it's more complicated than in the manga. The homunculi a couple of times.

Badass Bookworm: Every single alchemist. The two main requirements for performing alchemy are knowledge of what we know as chemistry and being in good shape. Shou Tucker and Izumi are the exceptions. Tucker turns up with his torso practically bent backwards on the back of a bear that walks on two legs. Izumi, Incurable Cough of Death aside, can beat Al in a straight fight without alchemy or half of her internal organs, but isn't much of a bookworm. Sheska eventually reveals herself to be this.

Aesop Amnesia: Played for Laughs. In the episode "Truth Behind Truths," Edward gets many reminders that being small isn't so bad. At one point he even beats himself up for saying it. Yet when it seems he's finally absorbed the lesson, only a couple of scenes later his height is commented upon and he goes ballistic as usual. A very tragic example in episode 8. Even after all the trouble that the Elrics suffered after the failed transmutation of their mother, Ed still tries to transmute Nina's remains back to life. Mustang gives him a stern redressing for this.

Strong Family Resemblance: Ed and Al look a lot like their father but in differing ways; Ed resembles him the most while Al looking more like a mix between Trisha and Hohenheim. Envy looks like an even bishier version of an older Ed (which is peculiar considering Hohenheim has been jumping between hosts for centuries) but the reveal is no less effective to his horrified half-brother. In the movie, Al takes to dressing like Ed which helps to highlight his resemblance to his older brother.

Shout-Out
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The Gate heavily resembles "The Gate of Hell" sculpture minus some of the Biblical figures. The two Protagonists' last name is Elric. The first scene of the fourth opening animation is likely a visual homage to a similar scene in Fritz Lang's Metropolis. One of Mustang's female admirers gives him two tickets to a play with a title suspicisously familiar to There's Something About Mary. When Ed goes into Laboratory 5, he trips a number of traps just like the ones in Indiana Jones. There's even a giant boulder! Coincidentally, The Movie itself wouldn't be out of place in the Indiana Jones continuity, what with the presence of Nazis and otherworldly beings which technically includes the Elric brothers. Shou Tucker's tank of soulless Nina husks resembles the tank of Rei's in Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Bait-and-Switch Credits: Of all the battle scenes depicted in the third and fourth opening and fourth ending sequences, hardly any occur between the characters or in the locations shown. Most egregious is the third opening, which shows Ed and Al fighting against dragon-like snakes in a swamp, when nothing even remotely close exists in the setting. The fourth opening and ending also keep depicting Lust as an enemy even though she already pulled her Heel–Face Turn by now.

Though, to be fair, anyone watching for the first time could easily pass this off as just saying Envy morphed into a female form so as to further distance himself from his Elric roots. He does call it "adorable" when he's first shown morphing into it, after all. Barry the Chopper was a fairly convincing crossdresser when he was human. Wrath is a rather androgynous Wild Child with long hair and a midriff baring shirt.

Adaptational Skill: Envy is portrayed as being highly intelligent with good leadership and tactical skills, being The Dragon to Dante. In the manga, for strategy they employ little more than guilt-tripping and have barely any ability to lead.

Spiritual Antithesis
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_ce2969d8
comment
Spiritual Antithesis: Interestingly, the series serves as this to the manga (and by extension Brotherhood). The manga's central theme is supportive of equivalent exchange: You can only grow stronger through sacrifice, and the lessons you learn through this pain will make you into a stronger, wiser person able to overcome the obstacles in your path. This series has a more cynical message, one that paints equivalent exchange as a flawed ideology: No matter how much you sacrifice, there is no guarantee that you will be rewarded in kind. However, sacrifice is an unavoidable part of life, and even if the world is unfair, that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to make it a better place.

Edward's automail, Steampunk prosthetics which offer full mobility but presumably require constant maintenance. They give him an advantage in combat, as they are sturdy, disposable, transmutable and throw off opponents, but they are still prosthetics—meaning he had to lose his right arm and left leg to begin with—and a constant reminder of the price he and his brother paid for trying to resurrect the dead.

Anti-Villain: While many of the villains receive a lot of humanization, Scar ends up so sympathetic that he nearly qualifies as an Anti-Hero toward the end. Lust also becomes more sympathetic toward the end. On the other end of the spectrum, Kimblee and Barry the Chopper are far more unambiguously villainous in this version than they are in the manga/Brotherhood.

Loony Librarian: While we don't get to see her actually working as a librarian (courtesy of her quirks having gotten her fired), Sheska counts: not only is she an obsessive bookworm (to the point that when Ed and Al go to her home, she has been buried for a couple of days under an avalanche of books) who has read all of the Central library's books, but she also has a perfect Photographic Memory. After she helps the Elrics by transcribing the book they were seeking (which got burned alongside an entire wing of the library courtesy of the Homunculi trying to keep information away from the brothers), Colonel Roy Mustang hires her to copy all of the other burnt literature and from what little we see of her afterwards she spends the rest of the series in this role.

Hoist by His Own Petard: Dante, in trying to get Gluttony to get over Lust and help make the Philosopher's Stone. She transmutes away all his reason, turning him into a mindless monster. When the Elrics ruin her plan to create the stone and she tries to escape, Gluttony eats through the floor of the elevator she's on and goes after her despite her trying to reason with him. Also when Bradley reveals his most treasured possession (the skull of the man Dante created him from) to his son Selim, imparting its importance, but not its meaning on the boy. Selim later rescues it from the family safe and brings it to his father during Roy's attack on the Fuhrer's mansion. Bradley freezes up in the presence of the skull and loses his regenerative capabilities, allowing Roy to immolate him. Mugear. He tried to get red stones processed so they could be used as alchemic modifiers and killed Nash Tringham when he objected. He's killed in a cave-in after the mining of the red stones causes the cave to collapse.

Pride when he strangles Selim for bringing in his Achilles' Heel - giving Mustang the chance to use it against him - rather than telling Selim to run away with it.

Contrived Coincidence: Since the Achilles' Heel of the Homunculi in this version are their remains from the person they were transmuted from, this means almost all of them were conveniently people the main characters knew when they were alive, so they know whose grave to dig. In Pride's case, it was because he kept his skull in his house instead of burying it somewhere.

comment
Chekhov's Gunman: Lyra, a wind-using alchemist and Yoki's lackey, is a seemingly innocuous addition to the anime's Youswell episode; she later becomes the container for the Big Bad via Grand Theft Me. Minor example, Majahal. He is essentially a Filler Villain who appears to never be mentioned until after episode 4... however, much later in the series, Edward reveals that he still feels guilty for having been responsible for Majahal's death. Also, the Tringham brothers, Russell and Fletcher. They first show up in Episodes 11 & 12, impersonating the Elric brothers and mentioning their father's research. They show up again much later, and, after a quick gag involving Russell trying to imitate Ed again, their father's notes come in useful for helping Ed find Dante's lair.

Mandatory Line: Parodied in Created Human. The episode opens with Hughes on the phone with Colonel Mustang, who complains that "[he] hasn't made an appearance lately." The camera then pans out to show all of his support staff before Hughes hangs up and Team Mustang isn't seen for the rest of the episode.

Continuity Cameo: Ling Yao, a character who was exclusive to the manga at the time, made one in episode 15, as a state alchemist in the Ishvalan War. Interestingly he's depicted as wearing sunglasses that look suspiciously like Greed's.

Solemn Ending Theme
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_debc6687
comment
Solemn Ending Theme: The credits for the episode where Hughes is killed are different from the rest. Instead of the usual ending theme set over animation, we just get the credits scrolling over a black background set to a rather serious song without lyrics. Fittingly, it's the indicator that the tone of the series is about to change for the darker.

Innocuously Important Episode
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_dee56696
comment
Innocuously Important Episode: Episode 9, "Be Thou For The People." It's an adaptation of one of the manga's early one-off chapter note  Chapter 3, "The Mining Town" and like the source material a self-contained Adventure Town episode with little impact on the plot. However, this episode also introduces Lyra, who winds up serving as the host body for the Big Bad much later on.

 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_df60d405
comment
Culture Chop Suey: At least one scene has Ed eating rice out of bowls with chopsticks in what is otherwise a setting based on early twentieth century Europe. They tend to sit and bow in a Japanese manner, despite being European. You can see Japanese flags in early episodes, despite Japan being non-existent, and the modern flag not even having been thought of yet, assuming the dates given correspond to a real world calendar. In one episode, Breda is playing shogi with several of Mustang's men, explaining that it's a game from "a country in the east". So yes, the Fullmetal Alchemist world does have a Wutai (which presumably is where Izumi hails from); it's just not directly shown or named.

Locked Out of the Loop: Roy hides Hughes’ death from Ed and Al to keep them focused on their mission.

In his words, overthrowing Cornello was one of their first real victories, he wasn't ready to take that away from them with the knowledge that they indirectly caused all that suffering.

Love Makes You Crazy: Majahal's plans were a result of (apparently) losing a woman he loved.

Envy turns into an enormous green dragon when crossing the gate. This is similar to their lizard-like One-Winged Angel form in the manga and Brotherhood.

Beware the Nice Ones: Alluded to when Al tells Ed that he'd want bloody revenge should Ed ever be murdered. Tucker, Bradley and Dante, who initially seem like kind and understanding authority figures, turn out to be something much worse.

Theme Naming
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_fd94c4ac
comment
Theme Naming: Most of the military characters are named after weapons, vehicles, and companies from around World War II. The homunculi, meanwhile, are named after the seven deadly sins, and their master Dante is named after Dante Alighieri, author of The Divine Comedy.

 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_fdc4fab4
comment
Depending on the Writer: Some of the episodes written and/or directed by staff outside of the core team have odd visual/setting/plot/tonal inconsistencies. The most egregious example is likely episode 10, which feels like it belongs to a different show altogether.

Also, the Tringham brothers, Russell and Fletcher. They first show up in Episodes 11 & 12, impersonating the Elric brothers and mentioning their father's research. They show up again much later, and, after a quick gag involving Russell trying to imitate Ed again, their father's notes come in useful for helping Ed find Dante's lair.

Shown Their Work
 Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / int_ffad4e9f
comment
Shown Their Work: Conqueror of Shamballa is a fairly accurate portrayal of the political climate in 1920s Germany. Although there were some obvious deviations from the actual history, they were clearly intentional. The Munich scenes were based on photos taken from the city itself. Also, the firearms used in the same scenes are models that were more or less available in 1923. The World War I scenes towards the end of the series are likewise based on the fact that Zeppelins did bomb London at the time. In fact, Ed's "Earth-death" is based on a historical account of one of the airships crashing in the city.

comment
Death Seeker: Hohenheim shows shades of this, as he rarely fights back against his aggressors, though it may have something to do with said aggressors being "changed" members of his family. Considering the fact that Wrath is revealed to be willing to walk straight into Gluttony's jaws to help Al reach Ed, he has shades of this as well. Then again, at this point, he knows his background as a homunculi.
