If you have watched the series from start to finish, then this is an obvious must see. And whilst i did really enjoy the movie i do not think it was perfect.

Good points: Great action, compelling plot, good overall ending to the series.

Bad Points: They didn't round up some of the other characters stories (Winry for example). I wasn't convinced by the story and found it a bit botched in places, i thought it was a good idea to include aspects of our world into the overall story but to be honest i was expecting a little more alchemy.

Overall: A great way to end a fantastic series and a must watch. However, for me it failed to live up to the epic standards of the series and really i would give "The Conquer ... Read More:

Before watching this show i had lost all interest in anime. the last anime i watched was Dragonball Z when i was around 9 years old. but after the follow up show GT and the fact that british tv is not good for anime, i lost interest for many years.

However my freind said to watch this show, Fullmetal Alchemist and give it shot, and lent me a copy of this dvd. The show had me hooked by the end of the first episode. it was smart, funny yet serious, and truely blew me away, given the fact that i hadn't heard of it. the dvd is what got me into possibly the greatest anime for a extremely long time, if not, in history. the dvd is the beginning of the series, and while it's not too exciting as later on will be, it gets the series going really well, ...

This second volume of Fullmetal Alchemist hits its stride and becomes an excellent show. In episode five the brothers are caught up in a terrorist attack on a train transporting a high ranking general and they use all their powers to defeat the terrorists and gain the thanks of the general. Episode six sees the brothers placed with an odd military alchemist to study for the exam that would see them become State Alchemists and Edward discovers he has skills that make him unique among alchemists. Episode seven takes a far darker tone than any of its predecessors when the alchemist the brothers are staying with takes extreme measures to maintain his founding and this episode shows what the series can do and doesn't pull its punches as much as you would expect.

Volume four of Fullmetal Alchemist continues this brilliant series and gives some back-story on the world where the show is set and the quest for the Philosophers Stone. The volume kicks off with episode thirteen which has Ed duel his superior, the Flame Alchemist, Mustang to force him into giving up information on a lead. Although mainly something of a comic relief episode it is still good fun and well made.

Episodes fourteen and fifteen sees the brother's track down Doctor Marcoh whom they believe knows something about the Stone. Things don't go as the brother's plan when the Doctor is captured by the military only to escape when the scared stranger attacks and kills his escort. These two episodes are quite dark and give details of why the scared man ... Read More:

I picked this up fairly cheaply and was expecting a boring mecha anime surrounding the guy with crazy hair we see on the cover. Well I was half right...
I was nothing short of impressed by Generator Gawl. Expecting a ton of fight scenes, I got more then enough character development and interaction to keep me loving every character introduced. The characters themselves have believable but interesting character designs and enough depth to them to stop them being unrealistic. The main female lead is the opposite of the typical hyperactive bubbly girls we see in most anime and all three male leads are more then likable. Though there is a lot of character development within the show, the story never gets hung up on character pairings as we see in most anime, and this ... Read More:

I managed to get all four volumes of Generator Gawl for the price of a single volume on the high street. It's very difficult to get a grasp of the series because instead of the usual 20+ episodes there are only 12. It's a cross between 'The Guyver' and 'The Terminator' with other elements of 'Appleseed' and maybe even a bit of '
In this particular volume we move away from the present (which is actually the past, damn this time travel malarky) to the future where we learn a little bit more about the relationship between the three main characters. Ryo is feeling guilty because he is responsible for Gawl. Gawl continues to fight generators. Koji stands and speaks in his usual deep murmurings about right and wrong.
You can't really compare it to other series, despite ... Read More:
