Frequently asked questions
What is the best Fullmetal Alchemist watch order?
Start with the main Fullmetal Alchemist series in release order, then add the movies and specials after the season they were released with. That keeps the story spoiler-free while covering the extras.
Do I need to watch the Fullmetal Alchemist movies to follow the story?
For Fullmetal Alchemist, the movies are mostly optional side stories — they do not gate the main plot. Watch them if you want more time with the cast, or skip them to stay on the mainline story.
How does the Fullmetal Alchemist wheel help?
The wheel pulls a random character from the Fullmetal Alchemist cast list on MyAnimeList. Use it for rewatch prompts, "guess the scene" games, or just to decide who to draw next.
