Information

Description

The brothers and alchemists Edward and Alphonse Elric made a terrible mistake when they were young: When a strictly forbidden transmutation goes wrong, Edward loses a leg. His brother is hit even worse. Edward can only save him by sacrificing his own arm in an equivalent exchange and binding Alphonse’ soul to a piece of armour. His body, however, seems lost. A much too high price that the two of them had to pay for their recklessness. That’s why they try everything to get their old bodies back. In their aim to achieve the best research conditions in the field of alchemy, their path eventually leads them to the army of Amestris. The military dictatorship of the country uses so-called State Alchemists as elite fighters in wars and conflicts. In times of peace, however, the “lackeys of the army” are free to research as they wish and have access to extensive records on alchemy, as well as financial support. But soon the Elric brothers realise that their own problems are almost insignificant compared to the threat facing the land of Amestris …

Annotation:
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood” is the second anime adaptation of the manga of the same name by Hiromu Arakawa. However, it is not a sequel to the anime from 2003, but rather a retelling of the story of the Elric brothers that follows the manga much more closely than the first anime adaptation.
Die beiden Brüder und Alchemisten Edward und Alphonse Elric haben, als sie noch klein waren, einen verhängnisvollen Fehler begangen: Als ihnen die Durchführung einer streng verbotenen Transmutation misslingt, verliert Edward ein Bein. Seinen Bruder trifft es sogar noch schlimmer. Edward kann ihn nur retten, indem er im Zuge eines äquivalenten Tausches seinen eigenen Arm opfert und Alphons Seele an eine Rüstung bindet ‒ dessen Körper aber scheint verloren. Ein viel zu hoher Preis, den die beiden für ihren Leichtsinn zahlen mussten. Deshalb beschließen sie alles zu versuchen, um ihre alten Körper zurückzubekommen. Im Bestreben, die besten Forschungsbedingungen auf dem Gebiet der Alchemie zu erlangen, führt sie ihr Weg schließlich zur Armee von Amestris. Die Militärdiktatur des Landes setzt sogenannte Staats-Alchemisten als Elitekämpfer in Kriegen und Konflikten ein. In Friedenszeiten hingegen steht es den »Lakaien der Armee« frei, zu forschen und Zugriff auf umfangreiche Aufzeichnungen über Alchemie, sowie entsprechende finanzielle Mittel zu erhalten. Doch schon bald müssen die beiden Elric-Brüder feststellen, dass ihre eigenen Probleme im Vergleich zu der Bedrohung, die dem Land Amestris droht, geradezu unscheinbar wirken …

Anmerkung:
»Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood« ist die nunmehr zweite Anime-Umsetzung des gleichnamigen Mangas von Hiromu Arakawa. Dabei handelt es sich jedoch nicht um eine Fortsetzung des Animes aus dem Jahre 2003. Vielmehr erzählt diese Version die Geschichte der Gebrüder Elric neu und hält sich dabei wesentlich stärker an die Manga-Vorlage, als die erste Anime-Adaption.
Testo dell’editore italiano Dynit:
L’Alchimia è la scienza della comprensione, della scomposizione e ricomposizione della struttura della materia. Tuttavia non è un’arte onnipotente. È impossibile creare qualcosa dal nulla. Se si desidera ottenere qualcosa bisogna offrire in cambio qualcos’altro che abbia lo stesso valore. Questa è la base dell’Alchimia e viene chiamato Scambio Equivalente. L’alchimia è vincolata da un unico tabù: la trasmutazione umana. I fratelli Elric hanno violato questo tabù, cercando di resuscitare la loro madre, e ne hanno pagato le conseguenze a caro prezzo.

    It’s always a lot scarier dealing with the living. Give me a ghost to talk to any day.

  • Roy MUSTANG

    You can call me Roy Mustang. Or just Lieutenant Colonel. Hell, you can call me the Flame Alchemist. Whatever you do, remember the pain.

  • Roy MUSTANG

    Killed in Action, and promoted two ranks for it. Brigadier General Hughes. You were the guy who was supposed to work below me and to push me to the top. Then you get yourself killed and surpass me in the ranks. I don’t know what’s more absurd. You or the State.

  • Roy MUSTANG

    The world’s not perfect, but it’s there for us trying the best it can. That’s what makes it so damn beautiful.

  • Riza HAWKEYE

    Master Sergeant Fuery, during your last physical it was discovered you have Athletes Foot, and we now believe it is affecting your brain.
