Movie Review: Fullmetal Alchemist Season One Part Two
Summary: 5 Stars
I copy and paste the same review from the last review of Fullmetal Alchemist (Season one part one). I have change things though but it's very little changes.
Introduction to Fullmetal Alchemist (No Spoilers)
Fullmetal Alchemist is about two young boys name Edward Elric and Alfonso Elric bringing their dead mother back to life using Alchemy. Now that Edward and Alfonso had a rough time, they return back to their childhood town to regroup and think of a different plan. If you are new to the anime, You might think it's a little kids anime but it's not. Fullmetal Alchemist includes war, violent fights, some gory scenes, rasicm. What makes this stand out is the will of the two young boys to bring their mother back to life. After bringing their dead mother back to life again, Edward and Al decided to turn their bodys back to it's normal state. The stone will fix all there problems but to what extent. How did the Elric brothers learn Alchemy? What will it take the brothers to get the stone?
The boxset comes with amazing artwork of the anime and a unique way of placing the discs (contains 4 discs). The boxset also comes with the name and the number of the episodes and a awesome circle sign on the disc itself. It comes with booklets explains where everything to place and the characters profile.
The DVD comes with all the episodes of season one part one, subtitles and extras. The extras includes Production artwork, trailers, Clean Opening and Clean Ending.

Summary of Fullmetal Alchemist: Season 1, Part 2 Box Set
Weary of limb and sore of heart, the Elric brothers return to the village of the childhood after four long years. And despite much needed auto-mail care, this homecoming proves bittersweet as the boys sift through the ashes of their innocence. But as Ed refocuses on the future where a startling secret waits to be uncovered, Al begins to worry about his loss of the past.While memories fade, shocking information about the true nature of the Philosopher's Stone is revealed. And the deeper Ed digs, the bloodier that truth becomes. How are the brothers to reconcile their desperate desire to reconstruct ruined bodies against this knowledge of the stone's gruesome cost? Deep within the confines of a secret State laboratory, Ed's morality will be put to the ultimate test, even as elsewhere Al is left to battle for his life and sanity both. And as rumors of military corruption and conspiracy draw others into the investigation, those closest to the Elrics look to suffer the most.
The second half of the first season of the hit fantasy-adventure Fullmetal Alchemist offers some of the most emotionally intense moments in the series. Dr. Marcoh's research into the creation of a Philosopher's Stone leads Edward and Alphonse Elric to the secret Military Laboratory #5. In its dungeons, the brothers find that Shou Tucker has continued producing chimeras, helping to draw them to the Lab. But Tucker is just a pawn for the Homunculi, Lust, Envy, and Gluttony, who want the Philosopher's Stone--which they believe Ed can create. Edward is faced with the terrible choice of losing Al or committing multiple murders when the experiment is interrupted by Scar, the avenging survivor of Ishbal. The Elric brothers' inner struggles eclipse the violent external battles: Al has begun to doubt that he ever existed in human form; Ed fears that Al hates him for delving into the forbidden knowledge that destroyed his body. After escaping from the Lab, Ed and Al meet up with the one individual they fear: their brutal but loving instructor Izumi. Realizing that the Elrics committed the crime of attempting human transmutation, Izumi sends them back to the island where they began their apprenticeship. The filmmakers intercut the Brothers' present sojourn with flashbacks of their early training, suggesting the ongoing journey to mastery of the art of alchemy. The dramatic episodes are balanced against comedic moments with Winrey, Major Armstrong and Col. Hughes. The brothers share a rare, carefree moment in Resembool, sparring and roughhousing. Despite his mechanical limbs, Ed frolics unselfconsciously in a sleeveless shirt and shorts--something no American animated character could do. Many anime series lose momentum after their first season; Fullmetal Alchemist only gets better. (Rated TV PG: violence, grotesque imagery, tobacco use) --Charles Solomon
