While I'm happy with the overall product it did come damaged and there was no mention of such condition when I bought,please ensure next time that the package is safely packaged or alert us of any damages. This is a deluxe edition book.

I love it

Another great volume in a great series. Volume 6 helps identify the Elric Brother's past, and help explain why they became who they are. Providing insightful, yet comedic storytelling allowing you to feel everything the brothers do. Every FMA fan should read through the manga, maybe more than once!

A must have for any FMA fan. The original source material of the hit anime. I really recommend it for any manga fan.

Got 3-13 for my brother for christmas and he absolutely loved them!

But isn't it a nice flashback? This volume gives a lot of clarification on some plot points, you get to see Little!Ed and Little!Al, and you even get into some philosophy. Definitely worth reading, I ate right through it.

This arrived WEEKS before I was expecting it, and it was in like-new condition. I will definitely consider buying from you guys again!

I don't think I've laughed more at a manga than when I'm reading Full Metal Alchemist. It's such a funny manga, but hits you hard when the emotion comes.

The backstory for Edward and Al Elric continues as we see them train with their teacher. After acquiring enough skills (or so they think), they go with their plan to resurrect their mom, which goes horribly wrong. Even so, they are hired by the government to be State Alchemists. The position gives them a lot of opportunity to research alchemy and to improve their abilities. Ed and Al hope to get their bodies back at the very least. But other schemes are also starting up. The story is fun and getting all the background on the main characters is helpful. I am definitely sticking with this series. Recommended.

The more this series goes on the more complex it gets, in a very good way. Volume 6 continues the flashback from volume 5 covering the history of the boys and how they learned alchemy. The training was almost unbelievable to read about. I could not understand why some of the unspeakable and terrifying things even happened to them in the first place. This was true in the anime as well. But it really sets the tone for just how brutal and dark the rest of the series gets as things progress. They need to be toughened up in their training for what comes after and I understand that more now. But, the first time I read it? I could barely stomach it. The rest of the volume doesn't lighten up much either as you see the rest of what you caught a glimpse of in the very first frame of the very first volume (finally!) and get a lot of questions answered. But not all, of course. I really enjoyed having all the blanks filled in concerning the history of the brothers and how they got to where they are. I also enjoyed having some more of the tenets of alchemy spelled out for us and more of a foundation set up so that we can better understand the limitations, and what happens when an alchemist tries to play god (an ongoing theme). After all the humble pie from volume 5, volume 6 goes straight for your gut. Those poor, poor boys.

Ed and Al's flashback to how they were trained in alchemy by Izumi Curtis continues as they try to survive for a month on a deserted island with no conveniences and no food except what they can hunt for themselves. They also have an unwanted companion, a masked strongman with a wooden club who beats the snot out of them and steals their food whenever he gets the chance! And don't forget that this is just to earn the right to BEGIN training! We also get more information about what happened the night that Ed and Al tried to bring back their mother from the dead and what Ed encountered in those moments that took his arm and leg. Bringing us up to the present, the extended flashback also shows how Mustang came looking for the boys, after hearing about their powers. I thought this volume worked really well. It's not often that an entire volume of a manga is a flashback but some plot points in Fullmetal needed some more clarity. But don't get me wrong, there are still a ton of mysteries left that I look forward to seeing revealed. I liked the sequence on the island because when Fullmetal is at its best, it raises some hard questions about the nature of life, of how we are just specks in the universe of small consequence and how there are powers out there that we will never understand.

Lots of cool scenes in this volume. Specifically some past events that were referenced but I never though to actually see. Through the use of flashbacks we are witness to the Elric's alchemist training, and all the catastrophe it brought, as well as Edward's recruitment as a national alchemist.

Thanks

quality book with quality built

Amazing collectors edition

Clean copy, no marks on pages or folded sides, perfect condition and good price

Quickly became one of my favourite manga

Continua muito engraçado, e pra quem é fã de Fulmetal, e quer uma edição de melhor qualidade, essa edição é perfeita. Capa dura e papel couchê, que valoriza a arte em preto e branco. O material é em inglês, então só recomendo pra quem compreende pelo menos o básico, que é o meu caso.

The 6th volume continues on the same storyline from the previous volume. We learn of the origins of the Elric brothers, what pushes them, their motivations, and how they became what they are now. Given that we learn about their origins, most of this volume takes place in the past a few years before the beginning of the story. One of the best things about this volume was learning about their struggles becoming alchemists. Going through good, bad, and horrible times just to find a way to bring back their mother. The best part about this was that Ed and Al went through these times together. You often see the one main character going through these struggles alone but Hiromu Arakawa did an amazing job at showing the two brothers working together to achieve their goals which ultimately makes their sacrifices for each other all the more believable and emotional. Aside from the pasts about the two Elric brothers, there are also small hint towards the pasts of other characters such as Roy and Riza. Overall volume 6 of Fullmetal Alchemist is an amazing story arc for the two Elric brothers allowing them to show the strong and unbreakable bond between the two of them.

Perfeito
