I've never watched Full metal alchemist. Is it a good show? And is "brotherhood" good as well?

I highly recommend both of them, especially if you like the genre. Like I mentioned in my post earlier, it's a real standout for me, and one of the few long-running shonen series I've watched that remains strong all the way to the conclusion.

Both anime start off roughly the same, but there's a plot divergence around halfway into the first anime (and about 1/3 way into Brotherhood), as the original manga was still running at the time, and the anime ran out of material to adapt. I preferred Brotherhood between the two, but there is some content prior to the plot divergance that is handled better in the original anime.  If you really want to get want to get the full experience, you could watch both, but Brotherhood does a much better job overall IMO.

Alrighty. Thanks. Help was appreciated
