Munich, Germany, 1923. Two years have passed since Edward Elric was dragged from his own world to ours, leaving behind his country, his friends and his younger brother, Alphonse. Stripped of his alchemical powers, he has been all this time researching rocketry together with Alphonse Heiderich, a young man who resembles his own brother, hoping to one day find a way back home. His efforts so far had proven fruitless, but after lending a hand to a troubled gypsy girl, Edward is thrown in a series of events that can wreak havoc in both worlds. Meanwhile, at his own world, Alphonse Elric ventures deeper into the mysteries of alchemy in search for a way to reunite with his older brother.
The way the authors of this anime were able to effectively show the usage of nationalism/ethnic cleansing by the Nazis as a way to create a homogeneous civilization, the dehumanization of populations to justify violence against them, the stripping of 'whiteness' from the Ashkenazim while relating it back to the plot of Ed's journey is just... wow. Excellent work.
