Fullmetal Alchemist

鋼の錬金術師

Alchemists are individuals blessed with knowledge and natural talent, allowing them to manipulate and transform matter through their craft. However, despite the vast potential of their art, alchemy is far from omnipotent as many believe. Human transmutation is a forbidden practice, and anyone who dares attempt it faces severe repercussions. Nevertheless, siblings Edward and Alphonse Elric choose to break this great taboo in hopes of bringing their mother back to life. Their attempt ends in failure, and they pay a terrible price for their hubris: Edward loses his left leg, while Alphonse loses his entire body. To make matters worse, Edward sacrifices his right arm to bind his brother's soul into a suit of armor. Years later, the young alchemists journey across the nation in search of the Philosopher's Stone, aiming to reclaim their original bodies using its power. Yet their quest for the legendary stone leads them to uncover far more sinister secrets than they ever anticipated.
