FULL METAL ALCHEMIST

   Full Metal Alchemist, also known as Hagane no Renkin Jutsushi in Japanese, is a story of the Elric brothers journey to becoming master Alchemists. 15 year old Edward Elric (who at the age 12 is licensed as one of the National Alchemist; a special elite army used by the government for various purposes) and his 14 year old brother Alphonse are both gifted with the innate ability to perform Alchemy, just like their father (Edward is the more gifted of the two). They just recently lost their mother to an illness and one day both came up with the idea of using an alchemy technique called "human transmutation" in order to revive their mother. Unfortunately because of a miscalculation on the brothers' part, things didn't work as planned and the transmutation failed. Not only did their mother look nothing close to human, but both Edward and Alphonse lost something as well. During the process of the failed transmutation, Alphonse lost his entire body and Edward lost his leg. In order to transmute Alphonse body to a metal body armor, Edward had to scarified his arm (thus giving his Alphonse the appearance of a man covered in body armor). Afterwards both brothers decided to give up resurrecting their mother, realizing the cost of doing so may be impossible to match by a human, let along anyone else besides God. However Edward wanted to returned to Alphonse what was lost in the failed resurrection. So he had automail applied to his body to replace his missing arm and leg (automail is a pseudo bio-mechanical technology that can be used to replace parts of the body and perhaps other uses as well), and joined the National Alchemist army in order to increase his advance knowledge of Alchemy.He hopes to one day be able to repair the damage that has been done and replace his brother's whole body using Alchemy.
