How to watch Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is widely considered one of the greatest anime ever made, and it's also one of the easiest to watch. All 64 episodes are canon with zero filler — every episode advances the story. Brotherhood is the faithful manga adaptation, distinct from the 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist which diverged from the source material. If you're choosing between the two, watch Brotherhood. The single movie, The Sacred Star of Milos, is a side story that can be watched after episode 20 but isn't required. At approximately 21 hours total, Brotherhood delivers a complete, satisfying story with one of the most acclaimed endings in anime history.
