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. Alchemy has a taboo,
and it is human transmutation.
Copy !req
9. It is that which no one must commit.

Copy !req
36. In the town of Liore,
a priest of Letoism was using alchemy,
Copy !req
37. together with a Philosopher's Stone,
to deceive the people.
Copy !req
38. Upon entering his church,
Copy !req
39. Ed and Al put a stop
to the priest's sinister designs.
Copy !req
40. However, the Philosopher's Stone was a fake.
Copy !req
41. "Stand up and walk. Move forward."
Copy !req
42. Having lost hope, Ed's
words stuck in Rose's heart.
Copy !req
43. They were words that Ed had
directed at themselves, as well.
Copy !req
44. You are the Iron Blood Alchemist,
Basque Grand, right?
Copy !req
45. Who are you?
Copy !req
46. Alchemists who have turned
their backs on the ways of God...
Copy !req
47. shall perish.
Copy !req
48. Hmph, so you're the murderous fiend
who only targets State Alchemists, are you?
Copy !req
49. However,
Copy !req
50. you've picked the wrong opponent to tangle with!
Copy !req
51. You're fast! Still!
Copy !req
52. If that's how you want it...
Copy !req
53. Hmph, that wasn't so hard.
Copy !req
54. W-What?!
Copy !req
55. Perish!
Copy !req
56. Another State Alchemist?
Copy !req
57. He does have considerable skill.
Copy !req
58. Major, you watch yourself.
Copy !req
59. You could be the next one he comes after.
Copy !req
60. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
61. Fuhrer, Your Excellency,
what are you doing here?
Copy !req
62. I got word of this.
Copy !req
63. Lt. Colonel Hughes,
are you in charge of this case?
Copy !req
64. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
65. If you need any personnel, just ask.
Copy !req
66. We have to crack down hard on traitors.
Copy !req
67. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
68. Lieutenant Breda...
Copy !req
69. Right. Sheesh, the Colonel
is letting his work pile up again, huh?
Copy !req
70. Hey, Havoc, give me a
hand with half of this, will you?
Copy !req
71. I've already got my hands full over here.
Copy !req
72. Let's see, who is this?
Copy !req
73. Lieutenant Yoki.
Copy !req
74. He's the crook who was lining his own pockets
Copy !req
75. with the Youswell coal mine concessions.
Copy !req
76. The Elric brothers exposed his misdeeds,
Copy !req
77. and he's currently on the run.
Copy !req
78. Master Sergeant Fuery, how is the radio coming?
Copy !req
79. The receiver has had it.
I'll have to change out the part.
Copy !req
80. Edward! Alphonse!
Copy !req
81. Welcome back, you two.
The Colonel is expecting you.
Copy !req
82. That Liore case was handled, thanks to you.
Copy !req
83. Let me convey my gratitude.
Copy !req
84. No big deal. We didn't do it for you.
Copy !req
85. So, this Philosopher's Stone was a dud, too?
Copy !req
86. The Stone was a fake,
Copy !req
87. but its power, at least, was incredible.
Copy !req
88. It transmuted this huge Chimera, and all.
Copy !req
89. I wonder how he used the
Stone to do something like that.
Copy !req
90. We're not very familiar with
the field of live transmutation,
Copy !req
91. so we don't understand it all that well.
Copy !req
92. Still, it is kind of interesting, huh?
If we looked into it,
Copy !req
93. it might come in handy for
us getting our bodies back.
Copy !req
94. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
95. In that case, why don't you
get some help from a specialist?
Copy !req
96. The Sewing Life Alchemist, Shou Tucker.
Copy !req
97. He's a researcher, dealing with Chimera
transmutation. I'll introduce you to him.
Copy !req
98. You'd go to all that trouble, Colonel?
Copy !req
99. He's up to something!
He's definitely up to something!
Copy !req
100. Don't be so suspicious of me!
Copy !req
101. After the Liore case, this makes us even.
Copy !req
102. Being indebted to you would be repulsive.
Copy !req
103. Two years ago, Tucker successfully transmuted
Copy !req
104. a Chimera that could understand human speech,
Copy !req
105. and earned his qualification as State Alchemist.
Copy !req
106. Understand human speech?
You mean, it talks? A Chimera?
Copy !req
107. Yeah, supposedly, it spoke.
Copy !req
108. It said just one thing.
Copy !req
109. "I want to die."
Copy !req
110. After that, it refused
to eat anything, and died.
Copy !req
111. What a huge house.
Copy !req
112. B-Brother!
Copy !req
113. Lots of visitors!
Copy !req
114. Nina, you have to keep the dog tied up.
Copy !req
115. Ah, sorry about this.
Copy !req
116. Ever since my wife ran out on me,
the house has been like this.
Copy !req
117. Once again, it's a pleasure to meet you, Edward.
Copy !req
118. I'm the Sewing Life Alchemist, Shou Tucker.
Copy !req
119. He is interested in transmuting living things.
Copy !req
120. He says he would love
to have a look at your research.
Copy !req
121. Sure, I don't mind.
Copy !req
122. However...
Copy !req
123. If you want to see what I have up my sleeve,
Copy !req
124. I'll have to see what
you've got up your sleeve, too.
Copy !req
125. That's what it is to be an alchemist.
Copy !req
126. Why are you interested
in transmuting living things?
Copy !req
127. Oh, uh, he's...
Copy !req
128. Colonel...
Copy !req
129. You transmuted your mother?
An eleven-year-old child?
Copy !req
130. I see, so that's why
you're the "Fullmetal Alchemist."
Copy !req
131. You've had a bitter experience, huh?
Copy !req
132. I don't know if it will be
of any use to you or not,
Copy !req
133. but why don't I have you look at my laboratory?
Copy !req
134. Oh, how embarrassing.
Copy !req
135. I'm popularly regarded as some
authority on Chimeras, but the truth is,
Copy !req
136. it hasn't been going all that well.
Copy !req
137. Oh, incredible!
Copy !req
138. This is my materials room.
Feel free to look around.
Copy !req
139. All right, I'll start with this shelf.
Copy !req
140. Then, I'll start over there.
Copy !req
141. I'm going back to work.
I'll send someone by for you this evening.
Copy !req
142. They have incredible focus, don't they?
Copy !req
143. They've already shut out the voices around them.
Copy !req
144. There are prodigies out there, huh?
Copy !req
145. Way up high! Way up high!
Copy !req
146. Al! What are you doing?!
Copy !req
147. Nina looked like she wanted to play.
Copy !req
148. Hey, what are we here to do?
Copy !req
149. Alexander says he wants to play, too!
Copy !req
150. You've got some nerve.
Copy !req
151. They say that a lion uses all
of his strength to hunt even a rabbit.
Copy !req
152. So I, Edward Elric, will use my
whole body and soul to take you on,
Copy !req
153. you beast of a dog!
Copy !req
154. Hey, chief! I'm here to pick you up.
Copy !req
155. What are you doing?
Copy !req
156. Oh, you might call it a breather
from searching through data.
Copy !req
157. Did you find any good material?
Copy !req
158. Come on by tomorrow, too.
Copy !req
159. You're going to come again?
Copy !req
160. Let's play more tomorrow, okay, Nina?
Copy !req
161. Mm-hmm!
Copy !req
162. Ah, Mr. Tucker,
I have a message from the Colonel.
Copy !req
163. He says "Don't forget,
Assessment Day is coming soon."
Copy !req
164. Yes, I know.
Copy !req
165. Okay.
Copy !req
166. Dad...
Copy !req
167. What's "assessment"?
Copy !req
168. State Alchemists have to report
Copy !req
169. on the results of their research once a year.
Copy !req
170. Last year,
Dad didn't get a very good evaluation.
Copy !req
171. If I fail this year, I won't be
a State Alchemist anymore.
Copy !req
172. Huh?! You'll do fine, Dad!
You're always studying so much!
Copy !req
173. You're right. I have to try hard...
Copy !req
174. or there will be nothing left...
Copy !req
175. Your mother left two years ago?
Copy !req
176. Dad said that she went
back to her parents' house.
Copy !req
177. I see. It must be lonesome,
Copy !req
178. with just you and your father
living by yourselves in this big house.
Copy !req
179. Mm-mm, it's fine. Dad is nice to me,
and I have Alexander, too!
Copy !req
180. But lately, Dad has
been in his lab all the time.
Copy !req
181. I am a little bit lonely.
Copy !req
182. Aah, my shoulders are stiff.
Copy !req
183. You should get a little exercise, Brother.
Copy !req
184. That's a good idea. Hey, dog!
Copy !req
185. Come exercise with me!
Copy !req
186. Come on, Nina, you too.
Copy !req
187. Wait up!
Copy !req
188. Wait!
Copy !req
189. Alexander, hang in there!
Copy !req
190. Don't forget, Assessment Day is coming soon.
Copy !req
191. Tell me,
Copy !req
192. what does it mean that he
only targets State Alchemists?
Copy !req
193. If the military was his objective,
Copy !req
194. he could just attack soldiers indiscriminately.
Copy !req
195. Alchemists, with their special abilities,
Copy !req
196. are not opponents who are easily killed.
Copy !req
197. That goes double for
those with state certification.
Copy !req
198. Perhaps that certification is the cause?
Copy !req
199. The enormous pay and various special privileges.
Copy !req
200. There must be many who are
envious of them. What's more,
Copy !req
201. "Alchemist, be thou for the people."
Copy !req
202. Alchemists, who are
supposed to be seekers after truth,
Copy !req
203. are changed into the military's walking weapons
Copy !req
204. the moment they receive state certification.
Copy !req
205. Ever since the Ishvalan Civil War,
Copy !req
206. there are any number of
people who would bear a grudge.
Copy !req
207. I have something to report, sir.
Yesterday, at 9:30,
Copy !req
208. a man with a large scar on his
face was witnessed on the grounds
Copy !req
209. of Central City Train Station
by multiple station employees.
Copy !req
210. The train station? The bastard got away, did he?
Copy !req
211. Our life before my earning
state certification was terrible.
Copy !req
212. We were so poor.
Copy !req
213. My wife couldn't put up with
living like that, so she left us.
Copy !req
214. I have to pass this assessment, no matter what.
Copy !req
215. I don't ever want to go
back to those days again.
Copy !req
216. It's all right, Dad! If they tell you no,
Copy !req
217. then me and Alexander will get
mad at the important people for you!
Copy !req
218. Nina, you sure are strong.
Copy !req
219. Nina, do you want to play with Dad tomorrow?
Copy !req
220. Really?!
Copy !req
221. Yeah.
Copy !req
222. Hooray!
Copy !req
223. Alexander!
Copy !req
224. Dad said he's going to play with us!
Copy !req
225. Hello, Mr. Tucker!
Thanks for having us again today!
Copy !req
226. Huh?
Copy !req
227. Mr. Tucker?
Copy !req
228. Hey, Nina!
Copy !req
229. Mr. Tucker?
Copy !req
230. Oh, you are home, aren't you?
Copy !req
231. Hey.
Copy !req
232. I did it. This is the finished product.
Copy !req
233. A Chimera that understands human speech.
Copy !req
234. Look there.
Copy !req
235. Listen to me. That person is Edward.
Copy !req
236. Ed... ward?
Copy !req
237. Yes. Well done.
Copy !req
238. Amazing! It really does talk!
Copy !req
239. Yeah. Now I won't have
to lose my state certification.
Copy !req
240. Ed... ward...
Copy !req
241. Ed... ward... Ed... ward...
Copy !req
242. Big... Bro... ther...
Copy !req
243. Mr. Tucker, when did you
get your state certification again?
Copy !req
244. Let's see, two years ago.
Copy !req
245. And when did your wife leave?
Copy !req
246. Two years ago.
Copy !req
247. Can I ask you one more question?
Copy !req
248. Where did Nina and Alexander go?!
Copy !req
249. I hate kids like you, who are quick to catch on.
Copy !req
250. Brother!
Copy !req
251. Yeah, that's it, all right! You went and did it!
Copy !req
252. Two years ago, it was your wife!
Copy !req
253. And this time, you used your own
daughter and a dog to transmute a Chimera!
Copy !req
254. There are limits to what you can do
with animal experimentation, after all!
Copy !req
255. It's much easier to just use humans, huh?!
Copy !req
256. W-What are you getting upset over?
Copy !req
257. Mankind's progress has been the result
of countless human experiments, right?
Copy !req
258. If you're a scientist, then...
Copy !req
259. Screw you!
Copy !req
260. Do you think you can get
away with something like this?!
Copy !req
261. Toying around with a person's life like this?!
Copy !req
262. A person's life?
Copy !req
263. Yes, a person's life, indeed.
Copy !req
264. Fullmetal Alchemist,
your arm and leg, and your brother...
Copy !req
265. that was also the result of toying
with a person's life, as you say, right?
Copy !req
266. No!
Copy !req
267. We are the same!
Copy !req
268. You, and me!
Copy !req
269. No we aren't!
Copy !req
270. Yes, we are! The possibility
was right in front of us, so we tried it!
Copy !req
271. Even though we knew that it was taboo!
Copy !req
272. No!
Copy !req
273. I don't...
Copy !req
274. Alchemists don't...
Copy !req
275. do this sort of...
Copy !req
276. I'm not... I'm not...
Copy !req
277. Brother!
Copy !req
278. Any more, and he's going to die.
Copy !req
279. Dad...
Copy !req
280. do you hurt? Dad, do you hurt?
Copy !req
281. I'm sorry. With our power,
we can't return you back to normal.
Copy !req
282. I'm sorry... I'm sorry...
Copy !req
283. Let's play... let's play...
Copy !req
284. I made it in time... Now...
Copy !req
285. I'll be a State Alchemist again.
Copy !req
286. The hell you're a State Alchemist!
The hell you are!
Copy !req
287. Let's... play...
Copy !req
288. Damn it!
Copy !req
289. If ever there was an
act of the devil in this world,
Copy !req
290. this case would definitely have to be it.
Copy !req
291. The devil, huh?
Copy !req
292. Then again, State Alchemists
must be willing to act,
Copy !req
293. and not refuse when
ordered to take another's life.
Copy !req
294. As far as dealing with others' lives,
Copy !req
295. Mr. Tucker's actions and our own
positions are not all that far apart.
Copy !req
296. And we chose this path,
knowing that fact full well.
Copy !req
297. Isn't that right, Fullmetal?
Copy !req
298. You will probably come across
other cases like this one later on.
Copy !req
299. You may have to get your
own hands dirty, as well.
Copy !req
300. Are you going to come to a
standstill like this, each time it happens?
Copy !req
301. Whether we get called
Dogs of the Military, or cursed as devils,
Copy !req
302. Al and I are going to get our bodies back.
Copy !req
303. But even so,
Copy !req
304. we're not devils, let alone gods.
Copy !req
305. We're human.
Copy !req
306. We're human!
Copy !req
307. We can't even save one little girl.
Copy !req
308. We're just insignificant humans.
Copy !req
309. I wonder why nobody understands,
Copy !req
310. Nina.
Copy !req
311. Shou Tucker, right?
Copy !req
312. Who are you? You're...
not with the military, are you?
Copy !req
313. How did you get in here?
There were military policemen out front.
Copy !req
314. Alchemists who have turned
their backs on the ways of God...
Copy !req
315. shall perish.
Copy !req
316. Dad...
Copy !req
317. Dad... Dad...
Copy !req
318. Poor thing. Once you have taken this form,
Copy !req
319. there is no way to turn you back.
Copy !req
320. At least your passing will be in peace.
Copy !req
321. God,
Copy !req
322. two souls have just returned to you.
Copy !req
323. Please accept them into thy open bosom,
Copy !req
324. and grant these poor souls rest and salvation.

by the mysterious man Scar.
Copy !req
342. In a life-or-death crisis,
Ed makes a desperate decision.
Copy !req
343. Next time on Hagane no Renkinjutsushi:
Fullmetal Alchemist,
Copy !req
344. Episode 5: "Rain of Sorrows."
Copy !req
345. Will he be able to accept the
decision brought on by desperation?
Copy !req
