The original series is over, done, ended.No more will we see anything from along that arc.That was how it was planned by both anime creator and manga creator.The manga author asked the anime people not to end the Fullmetal series the same as the manga, at least the first time around.However, in an act of appeasement to the Fullmetal Alchemist fans, the anime was recreated this time following the manga arc more closely.In order to impress upon the audience that this isn't going to be a continuation of the first series, the first episode is completely original and occurs right before Ed and Al head off to Liore.After that it follows the manga with a few exceptions.Because certain parts of the manga were already done in the first series they decided to skip it if it weren't part of the main plot.The confrontation on the train and in the mining town is left out this time, though, hinted at later.
The episodes which are a rehash of what was reliably done in the first series, everything up to the Greed episode, comes across as rushed, getting only an episode per act instead of stretching it out.However, once we encounter Greed things slow down a bit, since this is all new material.People say this series is more lighthearted than the original but when you read the manga you find it's similarly lighthearted.As the plot rolls along, however, it does grow darker.

Product Description:
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood faithfully recreates the story from the classic manga - see Fullmetal Alchemist the way the creator intended!
Edward and Alphonse Elric s reckless disregard for alchemy s fundamental laws ripped half of Ed s limbs from his body and left Al s soul clinging to a cold suit of armor. To restore what was lost, the brothers scour a war-torn land for the Philosopher s Stone: a fabled relic which grants the ability to perform alchemy in impossible ways.The Elrics are not alone in their search; the corrupt State Military is eager to harness the artifact s power. So too are the strange Homunculi and their shadowy creator. The mythical Stone lures exotic alchemists from distant kingdoms, scarring some deeply enough to inspire murder. As the Elrics find their course altered by these enemies and allies, their purpose remains unchanged and their bond unbreakable.Stills from Dragon Ball GT: Season Two (Click for larger image) Disabled per Amazon's request.
