So its basically a cartoon about a living suit of armor and his brother and theyre doctors I guess? And they fight monsters? It looks phenomenal from a cursory google search.
I love the creepy monster designs.
Not quite.
Quick recap of story beginning. Spoilers just in case.
2 young brothers. Father is an alchemist. Mom is mom. Father goes off to do alchemist things. Never returns. Family is waiting on return. Father taught the 2 boys the very basics of alchemy. So they can do minor things.
Mom gets sick and eventually passes. Older of 2 brothers looks up what the chemical make up of the human body is and gathers those materials. Together the 2 brothers try to bring their mother back using alchemy because they think all they need is the stuff that the human body is physically made up of. Stuff don't work that simple. They learn this the hard way. Essentially to get her soul back the alchemic process takes the younger brothers entire body in attempted exchange for the soul of the mother. When he realizes what is happening. The older brother sacrifices his left arm and right leg I believe to take his brothers soul and anchor it to a suit of armor. That's why one of them is an empty suit of armor. After they survive this. They set out to try and fix their own bodies making a promise to never attempt to bring the dead back to life. The requirements are not 1 to 1 as they stupidly thought. That is the reason their anime adventure starts. From their the story gets dope and stupid awesome. Totally worth watching. Both of them.
