Cover of the first tankōbon for Fullmetal Alchemist, released in Japan by Square Enix on January 22, 2002

The Japanese manga Fullmetal Alchemist was written and illustrated by Hiromu Arakawa.

They are striving to find the legendary Philosopher's Stone so that they may recover parts of their bodies that they lost in an attempt to bring their mother back to life. Therefore, Edward joins the state military and discovers that several members of the military are also attempting to get the stone.

Square Enix collected the chapters in tankōbon form. The first volume was released on January 22, 2002, and the last, volume 27, was released on November 22, 2010.[3][4] A few chapters have been rereleased in Japan in two "Extra number" magazines and Fullmetal Alchemist: The First Attack, which features the first nine chapters of the manga as well as other side stories.[5] On July 22, 2011, Square Enix started republishing the series in kanzenban format.[6] Viz Media is releasing English language editions of the manga in North America. The first volume was released on May 3, 2005, and the last one, was officially released on December 20, 2011.[7][8] On June 7, 2011, Viz started publishing the series in omnibus format, featuring three volumes in one.[9]

The animation studio Bones adapted the manga into two animated adaptations. The first ran for 51 episodes with several changes made to the manga and it was followed by a film sequel in 2005.[10][11][12] In April 2009, Bones started airing a new anime adaptation of the manga entitled Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood for the North American release.[13]

Envy is given to May to take home with her so that the emperor of Xing would recognize her as his successor, but Envy instead convinces her to go back to Central. The rest of the group arrive at Lior, where Alphonse meets his father, who tells him his past in Xerxes. Meanwhile, Greed finds and kills the Chimera Bido, who was a friend from the original Greed. He then discovers he lost his memories and is still the same homunculus. Enraged, Greed betrays the homunculi, attacking Bradley for killing his partners. Having taken control of his body for a short time, Lin goes to where Edward and Heinkel and Darius are. Edward and the chimeras decide to join forces with Greed to gain more clues about Father.

King Bradley reappears in Central to fight all people against Father, but Greed decides to help them.

In the battle against Briggs resistance, Bradley falls into the moat. In order to honor Buccaneer and Fu for their sacrifice, Lin and Greed decide to join forces with the resistance to stop Father's subordinates. Meanwhile in Father's base, one of his men cuts Hawkeye's throat to persuade Mustang to transmutate her. However, the chimeras and May intervene and help Mustang heal Hawkeye. Seeing that Mustang will not perform Human Transmutation, Bradley and Pride ambush Mustang to force him to perform one against his will, causing him to lose his eyesight in the process. Due to the transmutation circle that moves the Elrics and Izumi to the place where Father and Hohenheim are, Alphonse manages to find his real body in the Gate of Truth, but refuses to recover it now as it has become so weak that it would not help him fight the homunculi. Therefore, he reappears in his armor in the bottom of Father's base.

Father uses the five people who opened the Gate of Truth — Edward, Alphonse, Izumi, Mustang, and Hohenheim — to activate Amestris' transmutation circle to absorb all the souls in Amestris, then open a gate labelled as "God" and absorb it. As a result, he gains a god-like power and a new body. However, Hohenheim causes Father's plan to backfire by making the souls in his stone free the ones from Amestris and weaken him. After Scar kills Bradley in battle, he activates a transmutation circle to increase the others' alchemy, forcing Father to retreat. After Edward destroys Pride's body, he and all of his friends are overwhelmed by one of Father's attacks.

Despite the military's support, Edward's group is unable to stop Father, whose lack of energy to control "God" causes him to try to kill people to recover. With May's help, Alphonse manages to give his soul to the being behind the Gate of Truth to replace Edward's broken automail with his original right arm. Edward manages to weaken Father more, who takes Greed from Lin's body, but Greed uses this chance to let Edward destroy him before being killed by Father. Father is then trapped in the Gate of Truth, which Edward once again accesses to save Alphonse. Rather than sacrificing his body, Edward offers his own Gate of Truth, which is the source of his alchemical abilities, in exchange of retrieving Alphonse's soul and body. Shortly after this, Hohenheim dies, having lost all his Philosopher's Stone, while the Elrics return to Resembool. Two years later, Mustang is assigned to help Ishbal's reconstruction in exchange for his sight, and the Elrics decide to travel the world, desiring to repay those they met and learn the secrets of alchemy to help others. Alphonse goes to Xing to learn Alkahestry from May, while Edward heads west, but not before successfully proposing to Winry.
