FullMetal Alchemist is one of the most famous mangas of all time, and it's so good that it prompted two anime adaptations! In this episode, Garrett "the What" Klinkerman explains the series, and Kadley "the Why" Harmon delves into the historical context behind alchemy and the setting. We hope you enjoy that this episode isn't as short as Edward Elric!
