Anime Synopsis: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (Carla Yu)

ANIME: Fullmetal Alchemist: Broderhood
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood it's an anime based on a manga called Fullmetal Alchemist, written and ilustrated by Hiromu Arakawa and produced by studio BONES.
This manga had two adaptations into anime, one in 2003, Fullmetal Alchemist (FMA) and the remake in 2009, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (FMAB)
The first adaptation finished beafore the manga could end, causing that 2003's one have a different ending.
FMA had a very bad adaptation, his animation studio invented and changed a lot from the original story, personally I prefer Brotherhood, because it follows better the mangas's story and have a completed end.

PLOT:
This story is set in Europe, in a society where people can use alchemy: the science of the equivalent change.
Edward and Alphonse lost their mother when they where kids, and they tried to turn her back to life using alchemy, but it didn't work, and their mother's body became an homunculus (an horrible and deformed monster). The equivalent change law says that: for having aything you have to give something with the same  value. The equivalent change stoled Alphonse's body and Edward's leg, but before his brother's soul could get lost, Edward sealed him into an armor losing his arm.
Afted that, they became alchemists with the mission of find the philosopher stone and recover their bodies.
