comment
Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos is the second movie in the Fullmetal Alchemist franchise. Unlike the first movie, which acted as an epilogue for the 2003 series, this is a standalone side story.The story sees Ed and Al head to Table City, a military-occupied city on the Amestris/Creta border and surrounded by a circular crevasse called "The Valley", to capture a criminal who escaped prison. En route to the city, the train is attacked simultaneously by wolf chimeras and people in flying suits, all of whom seem to be after a young girl. During the scuffle, Al is knocked into The Valley with the girl.One thing leads to another and the brothers find themselves caught in-between a civil war between the people of Table City and resistance fighters within the Valley looking to reclaim it. As is always the case, things are not as they appear.Released in Japan in 2011, and gained an English dub from Funimation in September 2012. It aired on Toonami as part of their December 2014 Month of Movies.

Canon Foreigner: Julia, Ashleigh, and Atlas. As well as most of the minor characters. Lampshaded in a meta sense by the setting itself, with each of these characters either coming from or having been stationed there.

comment
Poor Communication Kills: The Cretan Chimera that pursues Atlas into the Milosian tunnels and takes Julia hostage. With the reveal later in the film about the real Ashleigh, the Chimera knows 'Ashleigh' is actually the Cretan tratior Atlas. He has a prime opportunity then and there to reveal 'Ashleigh' is an imposter to the Milosians and the Elrics, but doesn't. If he had, he might've survived (and Atlas wouldn't have racked up his body count for the remainder of the film).

comment
Cruel and Unusual Death: Atlas gets one of the most extreme examples in the entire FMA franchise. Ashleigh impales his palms on Alchemic spikes, then gives him a Facepalm of Doom ala Scar, but much more visceral, and he's screaming the whole time as his head is slowly ripped apart. And damn, if he didn't deserve every single second of it.

Unknown Rival: Ashleigh is this to Atlas. Justified, as Atlas went AWOL from the Cretan military 5 years earlier and would've had no idea who was commanding the Cretan Chimeras who were after him (on top of having good reason to believe the real Ashleigh had died in the Prologue).

Cast as a Mask: Used and averted with different characters. Atlas' much deeper voice is a clue about his real identity, and the contrast is obvious since the opening scenes are so close together. Ashleigh plays it straight since he wears a more traditional mask.

Unfortunately for Soyuz, Roy and Hawkeye hear him raising the rifle from his concealed position and Soyuz quickly learns Riza's legendary marksmanship isn't exaggerated.

Awful Truth: The Elrics try to use this to dissuade the Milosians from pursuing the Sanguine Star. They reveal their suspicions that the Star's really a Philosopher's Stone and share the hard truths they've learned during the series about the cost of its creation. To their credit, the Milosians are sincerely horrified by Ed and Al's revelations...but they're also so desperate to obtain their independence that they regretfully accept the toll as a necessary evil.

Foregone Conclusion
 Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos / int_3bc88a7f
comment
Foregone Conclusion: Ed and Al (not to mention Roy, Riza, and Winry) will all survive the events of the movie since it's set partway through Brotherhood. Likewise, Ed and Al will not gain any new alchemy secrets or knowledge to help them restore their bodies. This is justified in-story with the reveal that the new Milosian alchemy just turns out to be a riff on the Philosopher's Stone and thus Ed and Al have no desire to use it. Director Kazuya Murata's admitted in interviews that this Trope was very much in play (and caused headaches) when they were developing the film's story. It was a challenge to find a point in the Brotherhood timeline where the film could plausibly fit, ensure it wouldn't contradict the established canon, and plausibly explain why the events of the film were never discussed in-universe during the series.

Destructive Savior: As soon as Roy receives word of the Train Incident at Table City Station, he just knows Ed was involved (as does Winry). The irony, of course, is that Ed didn't actually start it this time around (it was the chance exposure of the Cretan Chimera on their train that got the ball rolling). That being said, a good chunk of the damage is solely on Ed.

Bittersweet Ending: Ed, Al and Julia manage to stop Atlas and Ashleigh and save the city, and the people of Milos declare their (short-lived, according to the map in Brotherhood ep. 64, though that could have been an outdated map) independence. Still, this comes at the cost of one of Julia's legs though she doesn't seem to mind. It may also count as a case of Earn Your Happy Ending.

Early Installment Character-Design Difference : A Meta variation with Table City. The first glimpse of Table City in the initial Teaser Trailer released in 2010 is a prototype design (the primary architectural difference being the look of the Central Tower). This design was later changed into the familiar model by the time of the later promotional campaign and the film's release.

Break the Cutie: Happens to Julia a lot starting before the main narrative: she is forced away from her home, sees her parents' corpses strung up like meat and her brother murdered, abandoned to a metaphoric trash heap, finds her brother only to discover he's a fake using her and then finds him again only to find out that he's gone Knight Templar, and then she's loses a leg. That's a lot of trauma for a girl to happen, which proves her to be a Plucky Girl.

Spanner in the Works: Julia's arrest and detention end up being this for Atlas. It forces him to break out of Amestrian prison months earlier than he had intended (since he has to get Julia before she gets deported to Creta and ends up out of reach). Atlas and Amestris both independently derailed the Cretan Military's goal of acquiring the Sanguine Star 5 years before the events of the film. Atlas' unexpected treason stalled momentum (but didn't entirely kill it, as Ashleigh survived and continued working for the Cretans). However, any research breakthroughs Ashleigh made were immediately rendered useless because of Creta unexpectedly losing Table City to Amestrian annexation (and being unable to retake it without triggering a full-scale war).

Heroic Sacrifice: A dying Miranda stabs Atlas in the black to distract him and give Julia a chance to flee the Central Tower. While it technically fails (and Atlas finishes Miranda off), Miranda does unknowingly buy Ed and Al the final, crucial seconds they need to ascend the Tower and rescue Julia themselves. Julia does this in order to save her brother by opening the Gate and losing a leg in the process.

He Knows Too Much
 Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos / int_65acf9db
comment
He Knows Too Much: Possible example during the tunnel standoff with the Cretan Chimera. It's not explicitly stated, but upon a re-watch, it's plausible that 'Ashleigh' killing the Chimera wasn't just about trying to rescue Julia. He may have also been trying to silence the Chimera before he could spill the beans about 'Ashleigh'. A variation when Soyuz tries to do this to Roy. Ed is just beginning his debriefing, so Roy doesn't know at this point about Soyuz's corruption yet. However, Soyuz knows Roy will be able to bring him down once Ed spills the beans. So he tries to kill Roy both to play this trope straight and to try and blame his 'death' on the Milosians.

comment
Dead Person Impersonation: Atlas kills Ashleigh and steals his face to assume his identity. This him allow him to pose as Julia's long-lost brother to get close to her and find the Sanguine Star. It also ends up getting subverted, as the person he thought he'd killed was Not Quite Dead... Zigzagged with Atlas also posing Melvin Voyager. He certainly stole Melvin's identity for his 'Hide in Amestrian Prison' plan. However, Falman and Breda's investigation reveals Melvin had left his hometown and come to Central City 4 years before Atlas stole the identity and no one back home had heard from Melvin during that time. It's left ambiguous if Atlas did kill the real Melvin, or simply stole the identity of an already-missing person (Breda leans towards the latter).

Death by Irony: Subtle example. It's stated the Milosians are being used by the Cretans as cheap labor to construct their geothermal plant. With the later reveal that Colonel Herschel is the real Asheligh, and his hatred of the Milosians, the implication is that he was intentionally trying to invoke this trope: Make the Milosians unwittingly help build the very instrument of destruction he was going to use to destroy them and their Valley.

Foreshadowing / Call-Forward: Table City's purpose as a citywide human transmutation circle foreshadows the Elrics' discovery that their homeland of Amestris is essentially a nationwide transmutation circle. During the standoff with the Cretan Chimera in the tunnel, Ashleigh covertly glances at Milosian freedom fighter Alan. It looks like he's signaling him to provide a distraction so they can rescue Julia. It's really the first clue that the two already know each other and are working together.

Dramatic Irony: During the final fight, an enraged Ashleigh screams at Ed that the Amestrian can't possibly understand the unbearable pain he's had to live with for the last half a decade. Ed and Al, of course, have spent the last few years knowing all too well the traumas of losing your parents and alchemical body horror. During this same fight, Ed earlier calls out Ashleigh for being willing to sacrifice countless lives in his quest for the Truth. Ashleigh counters this is no different than the Amestrian military's own slaughters (like Ishval) and calling it justice. The irony of course, as Brotherhood viewers know, is that the Amestrian bloodshed is part of Father's own quest to acquire the Truth.

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Atlas escaping from Amestrian prison in the prologue. If he had quietly broken out of the facility, yeah, there would've been an APB out for him, but it wouldn't have been a major manhunt (and there would've been no real leads as to his whereabouts or destination). By literally blasting his way out, Atlas gets the full attention of the authorities and the Elrics (who were on the scene and are invested in the manhunt because of his unknown form of alchemy). Atlas' rushed escaped also leaves behind enough evidence that allows Ed and Al to deduce he's headed for Table City and to give chase. It's all justified though, as Atlas' escape was an Indy Ploy forced by the discovery that Julia has been arrested. He was in a race to get to Western Amestris before Julia was extradited to Creta (which would've put her beyond his reach and ruined his 5 year long game).

Interquel

comment
Interquel: The film is set partway through Brotherhood. Fan consensus places the story's events between episodes 20 and 21 (based on comments from Director Kazuya Murata about Ed having deduced Al's body was still inside the Portal of Truth as the perfect catalyst for a road trip to investigate new alchemy). At the very least, it's also set prior to episode 24 (as Mustang's staff has not yet been split up and reassigned by Bradley). Although apart from a few discrepancies note  Al using array-less alchemy, the design of the Gate of Truth, and the use of the Brotherhood voice cast it can also fit in the 2003 series' continuity.

Mirror Character: The Crichtons (both Julia and the real Ashleigh) are intentionally this to the Elrics. Al and Julia are the quieter, more sensitive siblings while Ed and the real Ashleigh are both dogs of their respective armed forces, Alchemy prodigies, and with a temper to boot.

Used to Be a Sweet Kid
 Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos / int_be0ad6b7
comment
Used to Be a Sweet Kid: Very cleverly played straight and subverted with Ashleigh. The Ashleigh that returns to Table City is darker, more cynical, and more brutal than the young man we first meet in the prologue. Initially, it seems to be an understandable consequence of the death of his parents, being separated from Julia, and 5 years on the run and in prison. It's actually all a subversion and misdirection. The changes in his characterization are actually clues that 'Asleigh' is really an imposter. When we do finally meet the real Ashleigh again late in the film, though, he's become just as cynical and brutal as Atlas (and ironically because of Atlas destroying his and Julia's childhoods).

Irony: As part of his performance as the fake Ashleigh, Atlas adopts a characterization based upon how the real Ashleigh's personality and behavior might've changed due to the events of the last 5 years — such as a deep, bitter hatred of the Milosians. When the real Ashleigh finally reveals himself late in the film, it turns out Atlas' fake characterization wasn't actually too far off the mark from what Ashleigh's become like in the interim.

Supporting Protagonist: Ed and Al serve in this position for the film. While they're still the main characters, the movie makes it clear from the beginning that this is Julia's story - we're just seeing it through the Elric brothers' eyes. It's arguably a justified, necessary evil. Since this is a side story set in the middle of Brotherhood, Ed and Al's character development is locked in and the film can only do so much with them without contradicting later events. Julia, by contrast and by virtue of being an original character, does get a defined and developed character arc.

 Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos / int_cc7fae30
comment
Outside-Context Problem: Milosian Alchemy is initially presented as this. Similarly to Xingese Alkahestry, it's a different kind of alchemy from its Amestrian counterpart. This is part of what gets Ed and Al involved in the plot, as they want to investigate Milosian alchemy and see if they can use it in their own research to restore their bodies. However, it's then subverted when it's revealed that the Milosian Alchemly is just another riff on the Philosopher's Stone. This also allows Ed to hold his own against Atlas when he briefly acquires the Sanguine Star (as Ed's had enough experience at this point fighting against Stone-empowered foes like the Homunculi and Father Cornello).

It only becomes an Indy Ploy because of the unanticipated capture of Julia and her impending deportation. He didn't have a choice, but to move now and make it up as he goes lest Julia end up beyond his reach.

Spotting the Thread: When traveling to Table City, Roy and Hawkeye review what they've learned about Ashleigh Crichton. They know now his prison sentence was a means of finding a safe harbor (relatively speaking) from the Cretan Agents pursuing him. That also know now he broke out early because of Julia's arrest and impending deportation back to Creta. What keeps bothering Roy, though, is that this doesn't explain everything in-between. If he could've broken out of prison at any point, then why did Ashleigh wait 5 years? They realize the only explanation that makes any sense is that Ashleigh was waiting for something to happen during that interim. Indeed, Atlas was actually waiting for Julia to grow up, as her tattooed half of the Sanguine Star's map was too small and didn't match his stolen half of the real Asleigh's tattoo at the time.
