Fullmetal Alchemist - The Complete First Season (DVD, 2009, 4-Disc Set)

I would like to begin by mentioning how highly I think of Fullmetal Alchemist. It is probably one of the best animes to have come in a long time. The characters, story, and plot are all well constructed.
Although I adore the series, I did have a few misgivings about this particular item. One thing I noticed was that the outside box had the consistency of construction paper. It was thin and could easily be damaged. This was probably the biggest problem I had with this item. Other than this, there was not much else that I didn't like about the item. There were six very handy guide books and each DVD came in its own case with beautifully printed artwork.
In closing, I hope that this review was useful for some and that anyone who watches Fullmetal Alchemist will enjoy it as much as I did.

I believe that 90% of all anime is crap. This series belongs to the rare 10% that is actually fantastic; so much so, that this is one of only a dozen DVDs I have and the ONLY anime that I own. I am very selective about what DVDs I buy. Fullmetal Alchemist is well-plotted with a large cast of memorable characters and a wonderful story arc that has many surprises revealed at an excellent pace. The world, though possessing a lot of the elements of fantasy, is not far-fetched because it revolves around a set of defining principles established early in the story. The rules of this world are not broken or added upon, but remain consistent throughout the series.(One of my pet peeves in anime is when a character surpasses known levels of strength or they gain ridiculously strong new abilities just before they come in handy.) The depth of the Elric brothers' relationship, also reflected in the relationships of other sets of brothers in the series, and their search to get back what once was lost will hook anyone into the series. Without giving it away, the ending is very poignant and somewhat bittersweet, but it leaves one with a sense of hope and wanting to know what happens next. I must caution against the movie, though, which is a substandard continuation of the series.

Great show if you like anime. The show has pretty serious themes though, not exactly for kids. The story is awesome as well

The item was delivered fast...and i like it ...hope to do business again with you...thanks.................
