This week we travel back a little over a decade to a little known show, Fullmetal Alchemist. Ok, you know I'm kidding here right? FMA served as the entry point to anime for many people, with its unique mix of fantasy, magic, and comedy. The tragic story of two brothers went on to win multiple awards internationally, and the manga has sold over 61 million copies as of 2013.
The excellent opening song was courtesy of one of our favorite bands around the office, Porno Graffiti. The track Melissa, shown here as live version performed in Japan is still one of the band's most popular songs to date, always eliciting rabid excitement from the adoring crowds.
The show continues its success with some fantastic movies, keeping our hearts sated. Did Fullmetal Alchemist kick off your anime love?
