1. Alchemy is the science of
understanding, decomposing,
Copy !req
2. and reconstructing matter.
Copy !req
3. However, it is not an all-powerful art.
Copy !req
4. It is impossible to create
something out of nothing.
Copy !req
5. If one wishes to obtain something,
Copy !req
6. something of equal value must be paid.
Copy !req
7. This equivalent exchange
is the basis of alchemy.
Copy !req
8. Alchemists have a taboo,
and it is human transmutation.
Copy !req
9. It is that which no one must commit.

Copy !req
36. Brother...
Copy !req
37. What do you think about the
stories of this priest in Liore?
Copy !req
38. About his miraculous works?
Copy !req
39. They say he can transmute
flowers out of thin air, right?
Copy !req
40. It could just be simple sleight of hand.
Copy !req
41. Supposing it's not, though.
Copy !req
42. Yeah. Supposing it's not,
then it just might be, huh?
Copy !req
43. The celestial stone that
destroyed Xerxes in one night.
Copy !req
44. The grand elixir, sealed
away by the Eastern Sage.
Copy !req
45. It goes by different names, but in short,
Copy !req
46. it's something that intensifies alchemy.
Copy !req
47. That's the Philosopher's Stone.
Copy !req
48. If only I had that, I might be
able to get your body back, Al.
Copy !req
49. Damn! Write more
information about it, will you?
Copy !req
50. —Al...
—What?
Copy !req
51. I sure hope this is it this time.
Copy !req
52. Mm-hmm, right.
Copy !req
53. "Resembool, 10 years earlier"
Copy !req
54. Oh, my.
Copy !req
55. Messing up your dad's study again?
Copy !req
56. No, you mustn't scribble there like that.
Copy !req
57. It's not scribbling!
Copy !req
58. Watch.
Copy !req
59. That's alchemy, right?
Copy !req
60. Did your dad teach you that?
Copy !req
61. How can we learn anything
from someone who's not here?
Copy !req
62. We read the book, and it was written in there.
Copy !req
63. It was written in there?
Copy !req
64. Should we not have done it?
Copy !req
65. Not at all!
Copy !req
66. Amazing! You're your father's sons, all right!
Copy !req
67. Your mom is proud of both of you.
Copy !req
68. Mom praised us. We were so happy about that,
Copy !req
69. that we became caught up in alchemy.
Copy !req
70. But the summer of that year,
there was an epidemic,
Copy !req
71. and Mom passed away.
Copy !req
72. Brother, I'm hungry.
Copy !req
73. It's cold. Let's go home.
Copy !req
74. Once Dad comes home...
Copy !req
75. Don't you talk about him!
Copy !req
76. That guy is not our dad!
Copy !req
77. He didn't even come home for Mom's funeral!
Copy !req
78. I wonder if we can bring Mom back.
Copy !req
79. But it was written in that book that creating
people is something you're not allowed to do.
Copy !req
80. That's why it will be our secret.
Copy !req
81. You're here again.
Copy !req
82. What do you want, Winry?
Copy !req
83. Grandma says that every time
you think of a dead person and cry,
Copy !req
84. the more tears you shed, the more the
dead person in the next world feels sad, too.
Copy !req
85. We're not crying!
Copy !req
86. What about you?
Your mom and dad are always out somewhere,
Copy !req
87. and you cry because you miss them.
Copy !req
88. I-I don't cry!
Copy !req
89. Are you sure?
Copy !req
90. I was worried about you for nothing!
Copy !req
91. If you're slower than me,
you don't get any supper!
Copy !req
92. What's that for? Wait up!
Copy !req
93. Ah! Wait!
Copy !req
94. I gratefully accept this meal.
Copy !req
95. Come on, Ed, you drink your milk, too.
Copy !req
96. I hate milk.
Copy !req
97. If you don't drink it, you'll stay short.
Copy !req
98. Who are you calling a runt,
you sawed-off old hag!
Copy !req
99. What was that, you little bean sprout?
Copy !req
100. —Minimum hag!
—Micro-peewee!
Copy !req
101. Baby-ant-sized!
Copy !req
102. Atom-sized!
Copy !req
103. You're reading a book
that's not from school again.
Copy !req
104. You have to listen in class.
Copy !req
105. Leave us alone.
Copy !req
106. Say, what sort of book are you reading?
Copy !req
107. It's a secret.
Copy !req
108. It's none of your business, Winry.
Copy !req
109. No fair! You two always keep
secrets between yourselves!
Copy !req
110. Bye, now.
Copy !req
111. Ed! Al! We're going to be having stew tonight!
Copy !req
112. All right!
Copy !req
113. Yeah, see you later.
Copy !req
114. You know something,
whoever invented stew is great.
Copy !req
115. It even has milk in it,
and it still tastes so good.
Copy !req
116. What do you mean by that?
Copy !req
117. The idea of sticking milk
into vegetable soup is amazing.
Copy !req
118. A scientist needs those
kinds of leaps of imagination, too.
Copy !req
119. Maybe you're right.
Copy !req
120. Sure I am! I'm sure a leap of imagination
Copy !req
121. is what we need for human transmutation, too.
Copy !req
122. From then on, we looked into
what we would need to perform
Copy !req
123. human transmutation, to bring Mom back to life,
Copy !req
124. and honed our skills under an alchemy teacher.
Copy !req
125. It took years and years,
but we wanted to see Mom's smile,
Copy !req
126. and we wanted to live happily with Mom again.
Copy !req
127. With those thoughts in mind...
Copy !req
128. Done.
Copy !req
129. Water, 35 liters; carbon, 20 kilograms;
Copy !req
130. ammonia, 4 liters; lime, 1.5 kilograms;
Copy !req
131. phosphorus, 800 grams; salt, 250 grams;
Copy !req
132. saltpeter, 100 grams; sulfur, 80 grams;
Copy !req
133. fluorine, 7.5 grams;
iron, 5 grams; silicon, 3 grams...
Copy !req
134. All right, now to write
the constructional formula.
Copy !req
135. Now, we just need some soul data.
Copy !req
136. Here we go, Al.
Copy !req
137. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
138. Brother, there's something strange here.
Copy !req
139. Al!
Copy !req
140. It can't be... A rebound?
Copy !req
141. Brother!
Copy !req
142. Brother! Brother! Brother!
Copy !req
143. Al!
Copy !req
144. Al? Huh? What was I doing, again?
Copy !req
145. Hey.
Copy !req
146. —Who are you?
—Oh, I'm glad you asked that.
Copy !req
147. I am what you call the world.
Copy !req
148. Or perhaps the universe, or perhaps God,
Copy !req
149. or perhaps truth, or
perhaps all, or perhaps one,
Copy !req
150. and I am also...
Copy !req
151. you.
Copy !req
152. Welcome, you stupid fool
who doesn't know his own place.
Copy !req
153. Pipe down. This is what you wanted, isn't it?
Copy !req
154. I will show you the truth!
Copy !req
155. It was like a tremendous amount of information
Copy !req
156. was being stuffed directly into my head.
Copy !req
157. Stop! My head's gonna split open!
Copy !req
158. I'm being broken down...
Copy !req
159. No!
Copy !req
160. Stop it!
Copy !req
161. Stop!
Copy !req
162. It felt like my head was going to burst open.
Copy !req
163. But then suddenly, I understood. This was truth.
Copy !req
164. M-Mom...
Copy !req
165. How was it?
Copy !req
166. Yeah...
Copy !req
167. My theory of human transmutation was not wrong!
Copy !req
168. But it's missing something.
Copy !req
169. What I seek was just ahead...
Copy !req
170. the truth about human transmutation!
Copy !req
171. Please, show it to me again!
Copy !req
172. I can't.
Copy !req
173. I can only show you this
much for the toll you've paid.
Copy !req
174. Toll?
Copy !req
175. Yes, toll.
Copy !req
176. It's an equivalent exchange, right? Alchemist?
Copy !req
177. Damn! This can't be happening!
Copy !req
178. It wasn't...
Copy !req
179. It wasn't supposed to...
Copy !req
180. Damn it all!
Copy !req
181. It's been taken away!
Copy !req
182. Help! Someone! Mom! Mom...
Copy !req
183. No... this is wrong... this isn't...
Copy !req
184. this isn't what we wanted!
Copy !req
185. Al... Alphonse...
Copy !req
186. Alphonse! Alphonse!
Copy !req
187. This is my fault...!
Copy !req
188. Alphonse!
Copy !req
189. Damn it! Damn it!
Copy !req
190. Give him back! He's my brother!
Copy !req
191. Take my leg! Take my arm!
Copy !req
192. Take my heart! You can have it!
Copy !req
193. So, give him back! He's my only brother!
Copy !req
194. Yo, are you still in Central?
Copy !req
195. Luckily, I'll be able to go back
to the Eastern Command Center.
Copy !req
196. Aren't you the hard worker?
Copy !req
197. Next time you come here, see to it that
you've made brigadier general, Colonel.
Copy !req
198. Easy for you to say.
Copy !req
199. Oh, right. If you're leaving,
I'll give this to you now.
Copy !req
200. What is it?
Copy !req
201. The final report on Isaac McDougal.
Copy !req
202. It probably hasn't reached your office yet.
Copy !req
203. Yeah.
Copy !req
204. Xingese alkahestry?
Copy !req
205. Apparently, that's something they have.
Copy !req
206. To be honest, I have no
idea what it is. Do you know it?
Copy !req
207. No, first I've heard of it.
Copy !req
208. By the way, how are the Elric brothers doing?
Copy !req
209. I'm not their guardian.
Copy !req
210. Hey, why did you decide
to make Ed a State Alchemist?
Copy !req
211. He's still just a child.
Copy !req
212. As long as he's in the military,
Copy !req
213. he'll end up having to go through hell someday.
Copy !req
214. Like we did.
Copy !req
215. Hell, huh?
Copy !req
216. Oh, they've seen hell.
Both of them, and plenty of it.
Copy !req
217. "4 years earlier"
Copy !req
218. Lt. Colonel,
Copy !req
219. they're not in back, eith—
Copy !req
220. What is this?
Copy !req
221. Where are they? Where are the Elric brothers?
Copy !req
222. Be quiet, Den.
Copy !req
223. Don't bark at our guests—
Copy !req
224. Wha— hey, you!
Copy !req
225. What are soldiers bursting in here for?
Copy !req
226. We went to your house!
What was that over there?
Copy !req
227. What did you make?
Copy !req
228. We're sorry. Please forgive us.
Copy !req
229. We're sorry... we're sorry...
Copy !req
230. we're sorry...
Copy !req
231. You're...
Copy !req
232. This is a surprise.
Copy !req
233. I had heard that there was a brilliant
alchemist here, so I came to see him,
Copy !req
234. but I never imagined that a child like this
Copy !req
235. could ever perform human
transmutation, imperfect though it was,
Copy !req
236. and even bond a soul.
Copy !req
237. He is more than qualified
to become a State Alchemist.
Copy !req
238. Once he becomes a State Alchemist,
Copy !req
239. he will have to serve as a
soldier in the event of an emergency,
Copy !req
240. but at the same time,
he will receive various special privileges,
Copy !req
241. and research of the highest
level will become possible for him.
Copy !req
242. They may even find a way
to get their bodies back, or—
Copy !req
243. After he came stumbling
in here, covered with blood,
Copy !req
244. I went over to their house.
Copy !req
245. What was there...
Copy !req
246. What was there was not human!
Copy !req
247. Is alchemy what created that horrific thing?
Copy !req
248. I'm against it! Would you have
these boys go through hell again?
Copy !req
249. Here you are.
Copy !req
250. Thanks.
Copy !req
251. Um, Lieutenant...
Copy !req
252. You can call me Riza.
Riza Hawkeye. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
253. Miss Riza, have you ever shot anyone?
Copy !req
254. Yes.
Copy !req
255. I hate soldiers. My mother and father
Copy !req
256. were taken away to the battlefield,
and they were killed there.
Copy !req
257. And now, you're trying
to take Ed and Al away, too.
Copy !req
258. It's up to them to decide
whether or not they will go.
Copy !req
259. Yes, they will decide for themselves.
Copy !req
260. I'm not forcing you.
I'm just offering you the possibility.
Copy !req
261. Whether to move forward,
or whether to stay still.
Copy !req
262. Will you end your days in despair,
Copy !req
263. or will you seek the possibilities,
and bow to the military?
Copy !req
264. The boys will be the ones to decide.
Copy !req
265. If the possibility is there,
you should move forward,
Copy !req
266. in order to get your bodies back.
Copy !req
267. Even if the way ahead is through a river of mud.
Copy !req
268. Miss Riza, why did you become a soldier?
Copy !req
269. Because there is someone I have to protect.
Copy !req
270. We're leaving.
Copy !req
271. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
272. Well, goodbye, young lady.
Copy !req
273. It's Winry.
Copy !req
274. Okay, Winry.
Copy !req
275. I hope we'll meet again.
Copy !req
276. Will they be coming?
Copy !req
277. Yes, they will.
Copy !req
278. That boy had a spiritless look in his eye.
Copy !req
279. You think so?
Copy !req
280. Those...
Copy !req
281. were eyes that had flame in them.
Copy !req
282. Sure you won't regret this?
Copy !req
283. Mm-hmm, I've already made up my mind.
Copy !req
284. How long will the surgery
and rehabilitation take?
Copy !req
285. About three years.
Copy !req
286. One year!
Copy !req
287. You're gonna be spitting blood.
Copy !req
288. Al, hang in there for a little while longer.
Copy !req
289. I'm going to get you your body back.
Copy !req
290. Mm-hmm, and when that happens,
Brother, your body will be with it.
Copy !req
291. Your body is perfect now.
Copy !req
292. Yeah! Now for the alchemy.
I haven't used it since then, after all.
Copy !req
293. Right, not since you transmuted my soul.
Copy !req
294. Brother...
Copy !req
295. Yeah, right on the money!
Copy !req
296. Amazing, Brother!
You didn't even use a transmutation circle!
Copy !req
297. You've gotten so you can do
the same thing that Teacher does.
Copy !req
298. Al, you can do it too, right?
Copy !req
299. No I can't, Brother.
Copy !req
300. You didn't see it?
Copy !req
301. See what?
Copy !req
302. Nothing, never mind.
Copy !req
303. Hey! You've deformed my automail!
Copy !req
304. Does that make it okay
for you to deform my head?
Copy !req
305. Good grief, you are one uncharming gearhead.
Copy !req
306. I'm okay with being uncharming.
I'm okay with being a gearhead.
Copy !req
307. I've made up my mind to support
you until you get your body back.
Copy !req
308. Huh?
Copy !req
309. It's unusual for you to
observe the examinations.
Copy !req
310. Oh, but I heard there would
be a twelve-year-old child here.
Copy !req
311. I thought I would come see
what the topic of conversation was.
Copy !req
312. Ho, a steel prosthetic, huh?
Copy !req
313. In the Eastern Rebellion...
Copy !req
314. Ah, you had a time of it in Ishval, then. Hmm.
Copy !req
315. Who's that?
Copy !req
316. You idiot, that's
His Excellency, Fuhrer King Bradley.
Copy !req
317. Okay, begin the examination.
Copy !req
318. Do you have something
to draw transmutation circles with?
Copy !req
319. I don't need anything like that.
Copy !req
320. He's not even using a transmutation circle...!
Copy !req
321. That's quite something.
Copy !req
322. Excellency!
Copy !req
323. There might be those out there
who would assassinate VIPs like this,
Copy !req
324. so maybe you should reconsider
how you conduct examinations.
Copy !req
325. Hmm. You must have nerves of steel.
Copy !req
326. But you do not know the breadth of the world.
Copy !req
327. Good luck on the rest of your exam,
Copy !req
328. my overly young alchemist.
Copy !req
329. When did he draw his sword?
Copy !req
330. I wonder if Brother is
doing all right on his exam.
Copy !req
331. Say, Al...
Copy !req
332. Hmm, what?
Copy !req
333. If Ed becomes a State Alchemist,
are you leaving the village?
Copy !req
334. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
335. This is proof of your state certification,
a silver pocket watch.
Copy !req
336. Your certificate of appointment
and detailed regulations are here.
Copy !req
337. The Fuhrer has given you quite the ironic title.
Copy !req
338. What?
Copy !req
339. Nothing. Congratulations.
Copy !req
340. You are hereby an official Dog of the Military.
Copy !req
341. In the name of Fuhrer King Bradley,
I appoint thee, Edward Elric...
Copy !req
342. to be a State Alchemist,
and grant the title "Fullmetal."
Copy !req
343. Fullmetal?
Copy !req
344. Yes. It's a second name
given to State Alchemists.
Copy !req
345. The name that you now bear is...
Copy !req
346. the Fullmetal Alchemist.
Copy !req
347. Nice. It has an oppressive feel to it.
Copy !req
348. Sure, I'll take that on!
Copy !req
349. Brother, we're just about there.
Copy !req
350. Liore?
Copy !req
351. Will there be any leads to
getting Al's body back in that town?
Copy !req
352. The Philosopher's Stone!

Copy !req
367. Ed and Al, having arrived in Liore,
Copy !req
368. encounter Cornello, a man
who claims to resurrect the dead.
Copy !req
369. "Pray in faith, and ye shall be saved."
Copy !req
370. As Cornello preaches these words,
Copy !req
371. a Philosopher's Stone shines red on his finger.
Copy !req
372. Next time on Hagane no Renkinjutsushi:
Fullmetal Alchemist,
Copy !req
373. Episode 3: "City of Heresy."
Copy !req
374. What happiness is to be gained
by looking away from the truth?
Copy !req
