Full metal alchemist

Ok, this is the review for Full metal Alchemy:
Genre : Acton, thriller, comedy

Artwork : The artwork for FMA is good but not excellent (I've seen better artwork). It gets slightly better as the story progresses. But the effects look fabulous.Note:- This manga has plenty of blood and gore.

Basic story line:
(note : i will not reveal interesting portions of the story. Maybe I'll create a spoiler section for those who can't hold their curiosity.)

The protagonists of the story is Edward Elric, an young an talented national level alchemist (Alchemists who served the military). His younger brother Alphonse is also an important character . Both of them had performed the forbidden human transmutation at 11 and 10 years respectively. Ed was unaware of the consequences of their act and they paid for their crime with their body parts. Al was (almost) killed but Ed saved him sacrificing his arm to pull back his soul and attach it to an armor.
In this story Ed and Al venture out in search of the Philosopher's stone, the mysterious alchemy amplifier which permitted one to break the Law of Equal Trade and gain without sacrifice.
But they soon come to know many horrid truths behind the stone and its making ...
Well,read more to find out.I'll continue the review next week. (or maybe sooner)
