Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

What if the first human transmutation that the alchemist attempt is solely for the purpose of seeing the Truth gate.

You try to sacrifice your own life, to be reborn. Since it is a equivalent trade, you dont lose anything and gain the Truth gate.

Then proceed to sacrifice your Truth gate for another life.

As far as the Gates are concerned, are they simply information stores, or a doorway between 2 places?

Truth Gate seems to store transmutation information.

I'm not quite understanding the idea of this "reborn" theory.

However as Yukimura mentioned, you need a Gate to go back to real world?

That seems to be the case, and it's necessary for the trade to remain equivalent.

In essence, right now Al's got augmented alchemy powers while Ed lost off of his.

To illustrate the theory with an example.

Ed tries to perform human transmutation to bring back Al's soul and body. Once he gets to the "white" world, he talks to the chump with no face. While in the "white" world, he decided that, hmm I dont want to trade anything and supposedly cancels the transmutation. He would still have seen the Truth Gate and return to the normal world without losing anything, supposedly reborn.

That is a big "If."

At the end of the day, both Ed and Al did lose, between them, 1 leg and 1 set of alchemy capability.

Why would he be reborn?

Any attempt at human transmutation ends up with a shrivelled black mess.

[depthcharge]

I yield. Just me reading stuff where there is none.

[itadakimasu]

Well yeah.

The next episode would basically be an "Epilogue" chapter - which is pretty fitting for a "faithful adaptation" if the manga version also follows such a format (and I highly expect it would).

Having not gotten very far into the manga, I can't criticize the first anime series for any filler content or twists on the story... but this was so awesome. I really liked the way the first series ended and was worried this series would be crap.

This was my favorite viewing experience ever, having watched it from beginning to end as it happened.

Someone better give Roy a razor!

Edit: I've read that there's going to be movie. How true is this? And what would the plot be all about?

[Inazuma]

Hell yeah, thats a nice conclusion to a magnificient serie.

[Testarossa Autodrive]

I heard an OVA speculation as well. Not sure about a movie, but that would be interesting.

Edit: I said I wasn't going to tear up even though I knew what to expect. I thought I'd d'awed over the series when I finished reading the manga, but I guess not. I friggin' love Fullmetal Alchemist so much.

[Buffalobiian]

As mentioned before, episode 63 was more like the finale, but this episode still made some great wrap-ups.

I really can't pick out what's left unanswered.

Den's confused face was pretty funny.

Lan Fan being the SS Agent she is in Lin's shadow was a nice touch. I didn't even see her until I watched the ED twice.

Ed's son having the exact same grin brought one to my face too.

This series has been nothing short of fantastic.

At the end of the episode there was an announcement saying a movie was green lit. It consisted of only kanji, so Eclipse left it out.

A great ending for a great series. Though I never expected Selim to still be around. And I was expecting to Al and May to have children as well, not only Ed and Winry.

[Buffalobiian]

And I was expecting to Al and May to have children as well, not only Ed and Winry.

Maybe in a little while Zell.

I'm sure Amsteris has a law about the minimum age of consent.

The doujinshi world, however, does not.

[Kraco]

Yeah, May was probably a tad young even in the credits photo. She was just a little girl during the series, after all. I wonder what Ed is doing, though. He obviously can't be a state alchemist anymore, so unless he got a permanent pension for saving the country, he should have acquired some sort of a profession. Well, he would anyway since he's hardly the kind of dude who would sit idle doing nothing. Maybe he writes books about the distant places he visits.

[shinta|hikari]

Maybe he gets his living and travel expenses from Winry, I don't think she would quit doing her automail job.

[JaySee]

He's got a sugar momma. I was wondering why Al didn't just fix the roof with alchemy. Hoenheim should have replaced Ed's gate for his before he died.

I don't think it works that way.

Hoenheim could have rescued Al instead, but they didn't want to do that.

He can't be a State Alchemist, but he might be eligible as a researcher or something, and have the State budget pay for his traveling expenses.

He also has a stash of money in his bank, if it wasn't destroyed as part of the collateral damage.

I was wondering why Al didn't just fix the roof with alchemy.

Come on. How much do you want to rub it in his face?

[JaySee]

He should have let Hoenheim give up his gate instead. Let the dad do the dad thing without dying. Even though he died shortly after anyway.

[Penner]

I'm sad to see it go, but it was a great ending to an even greater series.
