EDWARD ELRIC

"People cannot gain anything without sacrificing something. You must present something of equal value to gain something".- Alchemists' principle

Main Dudes: Edward and Alhonse Elric are two alchemist bros on the hunt for the Philosopher's stone. Ed's the short, and Al's the walking suit of armor with the teeny-tiny voice.
The Beginnings: Hiromu Arakawa started FMA as a manga! In fact, it's still a manga - like some other anime shows based on comic books, the show's already ended but the manga story's still going strong.
Anime Antics: Never call Ed short, 'cause he's liable to explode. To add insult to injury, a lot of people evn think Al's the Fullmetal Alchemist (since he's made of metal), when it's actually Ed.
Voice Actors: Even though the original Japanese dub had girls playing the part of Elrics, the English version calls on Mic Mignona to voice Ed and Aaron Desmuke to go all kiddo as Al.
Quick Note: "Shorty? Can a shorty do this? What elso do you want to call me: a half-pint, bean-sprout midget?" - Edward Elric
Phattest Fact: Besides getting a nifty title based on their alchemy style (Fullmetal, Strong Arm, and so on), State Alchemists also earn the rak of major after they pass the assessment test.
DYK: A lot of the characters are named after actual military equipment.]
