Although it was the second adaptation of the manga that serves as its source material, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is arguably the more beloved version the Fullmetal Alchemist story — in part because of its ending. The anime series follows a pair of brothers, Edward and Alphonse Elric, who were raised in the village of Resembool by a single mother after their father left the family. Following their mother's passing, the boys attempt to use their skills in alchemy to raise her from the dead — something that's incredibly dangerous and impossible to complete without huge consequences. The human transmutation attempt leaves Al's physical form destroyed and Ed without a leg; Ed then gives up another limb, his arm, to allow Al's soul to remain and be placed into a suit of armor. After Ed and Al burn their home to the ground, they forge ahead to become State Alchemists, with Ed becoming the "Fullmetal Alchemist." Their aim is to return to the fully human young men they once were, and the journey they embark on is quite thrilling, filled with trials, tribulations, and the threat of the antagonistic "Father."
Instead, he performs a human transmutation on himself, agreeing to give up his use of alchemy forever in exchange for getting Al back in his original body. Ed's sacrifice means that he'll never be able to perform alchemy again, but it's a sacrifice he's willing to make in exchange for his brother's life.
The Elric brothers' sacrifices. Bones. As Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood winds its way toward its conclusion, the final showdown between Ed and Father feels inevitable. Ed's victory is far from guaranteed, though, and is put into jeopardy after Father successfully destroys Ed's automail arm.
The show's penultimate episode closes with Hoenheim's death, in part because it suggests that Father's demise may really be the beginning of a new era.
Even after Al's sacrifice, though, Ed still needs help to further weaken father. He relies on Greed, one of the Seven Homunculi that embodies Father's greed (or at least a portion of it), who decides to sacrifice himself to turn Father's body into weak charcoal. Ed is then able to punch a hole through Father's chest, releasing the souls of Xerxes that were trapped inside and sending Father through the Gate of Truth, where he is trapped for eternity.
Bones. Following the chaos of Father's defeat, Ed and Al's father Hoenheim is finally allowed to come to the end of his own journey. Although Ed refuses to allow Hoenheim to sacrifice himself to bring Al back, Hoenheim still dies, having finally vanquished the force that was giving him his unnaturally long life.
Although Ed loses his ability to perform alchemy, he doesn't lose interest in the subject completely. Two years after the events of the main series, Al and Ed agree to travel east and west, respectively, hoping to learn more about alchemy and eventually combine their research. Meanwhile, Ishbalan priest-slash-warrior Scar works to rebuild the nation of Ishval, and Ed's superior State Alchemist Colonel Mustang, who has now been promoted to a general, continues to aspire to become Führer.
