The 4th (and last) opening sequence for the "Full Metal Alchemist" anime series.

I miss the days spent watching FMA. I remember it was in J1 and I got the series from Debra and Sharleen, and strangely enough, we were the only ones crazy over it. I don't usually hang out with them in school, but we got quite close over anime and manga. Then again, I'm one of those people who appears to have been quite good at making friends with all the different cliques in the class, so yeah, how typical of me.

I remember having this SUPERB ability in predicting plotlines and I remember breaking Sharleen's attempts in teasing me about future episodes by saying totally random stuff about the storyline, e.g. 'I bet this character is actually this character's mother/father/child.' and laughing at her 'HOW DID YOU KNOW!?!??!?' face.
I even correctly guessed that the Homonculi in the anime were simply the failed human transmutations that developed further due to the aid of the Philosopher's stone, and that was like a major twist in the storyline. So really, things don't really surprise me unless they really are good twists!

Many thanks to Dory for lending me her FMA mangas! The mangas are so different from the anime that I'm a little confused right now. But despite the confusing differences in characters and occurrences, the story really sucks you in. Very entertaining and exciting.

"The world isn't perfect, and the law is incomplete. Equivalent Exchange doesn't encompass everything that goes on here. But I still choose to believe in its principle: that all things do come at a price. That there's an ebb, and a flow, a cycle. That the pain we went through did have a reward and that anyone who's determined and perseveres will get something of value in return, even if it's not what they expected." - Alphonse Elric

Very true indeed. And that my friends, is the principle of Equivalent Exchange.
