Fueled by the Nazi party, these Germans are lead by a vile woman named Dietlinde Eckhart who captures Envy and use his serpentine body as a way to open the gate to Shamballa. Of course neither of these characters knows anything about Amestris, but it helps make this unfamiliar world feel connected for fans of the show.Īs the tale progresses Edward gets in the middle of a German operation and uncovers a plot to open the gate in order to bring a powerful weapon from the other side to the aide of their cause. Hughes is in Munich and alive, King Bradley is present and accounted for, some of Greed's chimeras are around, and there is even a brief appearance by Scar and Lust. Since the alchemic world (Amestris) and ours are parallel to each other and separated by the Gate there are striking similarities between the two. Naturally since he can't use Alchemy in our reality that task is proving to be exceedingly difficult.Īs you grow accustomed to Ed's new surroundings you'll recognize several faces from the show. He still dreams about getting back home to the other side of the Gate where his friends and brother are.
It's 1923 and Edward Elric is living in Munich, Germany with Alphonse (not the Al we know) and studying the possibilities of rocket propulsion.
#The conqueror of shamballa full movie series
The Conqueror of Shamballa the film takes place two years after the series ended. That's kind of a little tacky, but as far as the film itself is concerned, it is nothing short of amazing. The only difference is that the disc now says "Special Edition" and "Disc One" on the front everything else is the same. The first disc in this Special Edition is essentially a reprint of the prior release right down to the menus and special features. Now that the definitive edition has been released though was it worth the wait? I guess it really depends how in love you are with the series. I knew all along that a special edition was in the works so biting the bullet for the relatively barebones edition didn't seem to make sense for real fans.

Due to this success I wasn't surprised at all when I heard that a movie was being released.Įarlier this year we received Fullmetal Alchemist: The Conqueror of Shamballa on DVD. Through thirteen volumes I sat enthralled and in case you are counting that's 51 episodes that never skipped a beat.
It quickly became my favorite show because it presented a unique story, had interesting characters, and real emotion in ways that few shows could ever hope to achieve. This review contains some spoilers about the end of the series due to the fact that they are integral to the movie's plot.įullmetal Alchemist was one of the most important anime to come along in recent years.
