Book Review: Fullmetal Alchemist Vol. 19 by Hiromu Arakawa

Fullmetal Alchemist Volume 19 by Hiromu Arakawa


This volume starts with the backstory of Ed and Al's dad which details his relationship with the first homunculus and how he wound up where he did. The story then shifts back to modern day where Al falls apart literally and the crew has to carry him back to the fort in pieces. Meanwhile, Ed's near death experience gives him some new unexpected allies. Also meanwhile, Major General Armstrong meets with President Bradley (who is the head of the homunculus conspiracy). She plays a dodgy game of cat and mouse with the president, making readers wondering which side she is really on.

The story gets more complicated and interesting as it goes along. A lot of details are explained or expanded on in the best possible ways. I can't wait for more!

Highly recommended.
