Mustang must make a difficult choice: will he break alchemy’s greatest taboo? Or will he watch the person dearest to him die? Meanwhile, it grows ever more difficult to discern where Ling ends and Greed begins.

The battle for a nation’s soul descends into chaos. Bradley unleashes death on those who dare engage him. Beneath Central, the one responsible for the Fuhrer’s creation unleashes something far, far worse.

Central’s forces fight with renewed vigor following Bradley’s return, and the Fuhrer himself enters the battle. His first opponent is an armored tank. His second foe is even tougher.

A rebel victory is imminent and hope takes hold among Mustang and Armstrong’s troops. Central’s forces teeter on the brink of collapse – until their fallen leader returns to take control.

As Envy writhes within the firestorm unleashed by Mustang’s vengeful rage, Hawkeye must take drastic measures to prevent the Flame Alchemist’s hatred from burning out of control.

After a startling radio broadcast grants Mustang’s forces the advantage over Central’s troops, the Flame Alchemist unleashes the brutal power of burning hatred in the battle against the killer of Maes Hughes.

With a Philosopher’s Stone in his possession, Alphonse fearlessly engages Pride and Kimblee. Elsewhere, the Armstrongs find themselves trapped between Sloth’s onslaught and the guns of Central’s troops.

Ed’s crew faces a horde of ravenous mannequins, abominations powered by human souls. The twisted creatures aren’t the only unstoppable force on the battlefield –Pride, Sloth, and Envy are on the move.

Mustang leads a ragtag assault force of hardy northern troops – and welcome faces from the past – against Central’s defenses. Victory seems certain until the military’s most horrifying secret is revealed.

With his father’s help, Al takes incredible steps to contain the monstrous Pride. As the sun begins to rise on the Promised Day, the youngest Elric listens while the Homunculus ponders his very human mother.

After investigating the twisted roots of the Bradley family tree, Mustang gathers his most loyal troops. Meanwhile, Ed and his allies continue fighting Selim, who shocks everyone by turning on his own kind.

A sinister voice rings out from the shell of Al’s armor, and Ed and Greed find themselves under attack. As the Homunculi use the darkness to their advantage, a face from the past arrives to join the battle.

Those who have prepared to reclaim a nation find their plans exposed. The chaos multiplies after an assassin strikes down a mighty leader in broad daylight, and Alphonse falls prey to monsters in the dark.

Hohenheim and Alphonse enjoy a chance to get reacquainted. Their bond is restored with ease, inspiring the father to share his secrets with his sons – but one of them is far away and on the run.

In the snowy north, the soldiers of Fort Briggs engage an invading army, and Marcoh leads an attack against monstrous Envy. In Central, an ominous and shocking secret is revealed to Olivier Armstrong.

May and Marcoh’s efforts to decode the research of Scar’s brother yield progress, but it might be too late to prevent catastrophe. Violence is spreading across the land, and it will soon reach the northern border.

Bound by more than blood, the Elrics have long shared joy and pain. Now, with Al wandering the frigid void – and Ed losing blood by Kimblee’s hand – the mystical connection of their souls could prove fatal.

Long ago, the blood of a simple slave was used in an experiment which created a strange, shapeless being. In exchange for the gift of existence, the being gave the slave a name – and cursed him with immortality.

The ruse of Winry’s abduction by Scar is revealed, but a plan of rescue must still be hatched. A brutal storm is coming – one which only Alphonse Elric can brave.
