Fullmetal Alchemist, Volume 1
Fullmetal Alchemist, Volume 1 | Hiromu Arakawa
17 posts | 53 read | 15 to read
Alchemy: the mystical power to alter the natural world; something between magic, art and science. When two brothers, Edward and Alphonse Elric, dabbled in this power to grant their dearest wish, one of them lost an arm and a leg...and the other became nothing but a soul locked into a body of living steel. Now Edward is an agent of the government, a slave of the military-alchemical complex, using his unique powers to obey orders...even to kill. Except his powers aren't unique. The world has been ravaged by the abuse of alchemy. And in pursuit of the ultimate alchemical treasure, the Philosopher's Stone, their enemies are even more ruthless than they are...

We‘re watching this amine with out kids; thought I‘d give Volume 1 of the manga a try. Great story, well-told!

I‘m all set to finish another FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST 3-in-1 this morning! I‘ve got tons more volumes to pick up from the library ASAP, too. I maybe went a little overboard with the requests after I reached the “must have more, oh god, oh god” point, and nobody had ‘em checked out so I‘ve got a serious pile to haul home. Oops.

4-5 stars! Honestly I‘m going through these so quickly it‘s hard to remember what happened in which volume! 😅. I can‘t say any spoilers so let me just say that Gluttony is just as terrifying on paper as he is in Brotherhood.

Book 15. This one came to me highly recommended from my middle brother and it didn‘t disappoint. I enjoyed it over my coffee this morning.

This one had a lot of action which was hard to follow at times but the panda showed up towards the end!

A fan for over ten years and FMA is still my favorite anime/manga series! While the first book is a bit slow it really sets up the whole rest of the series. The characters are fun, and I love how Edward and Roy Mustang are introduced. Since this one is so important I give it a 4/5 stars. (If the bad guys were better it would be a 5 star read, but they only get better from here!)

Guys, I feel like a reading slump is coming along and I REALLY don't want it to come because the last slump I had lasted for like 7 months. So, I'm reading this right now to hopefully stop it before it gets here 😬

Shvonne Fullmetal is my favorite manga 7y
Malisa @Shvonne nice! I'm really looking forward to finally reading all of it, I've only watched the anime 7y
Shvonne @Malisa If you watched the first series, around vol. 5 or 6 the books start going in a completely different direction than the anime. If you watched FMA: Brotherhood there isn't much difference. #geekout 7y

Malisa @tracyrowanreads Thanks a bunch!! *hugs back* I'm glad you're coming out of that slump, I can't imagine having one for 15 years! I wish the best of luck to you ❤️😘 7y

Been really enjoying comic books lately, so decided to branch further out and get a manga. So far it's everything I hoped it would be.

My first manga! Even if the format isn't for me, at least I already know I like the story. 😂
