Ever since Ed and Al attempted human transmutation, they have
desperately avoided one person: their childhood teacher Izumi.
Bearing dreadlocks, an iron will and incredible alchemic skills,
she is horrified that Ed and Al used her teachings to violate
nature. Now she has caught them and is shipping them back
to her hometown for a frightening interrogation. Meanwhile,
Lieutenant Colonel Hughes' investigation of Lab Five leads
him to a startling discovery of military corruption and conspiracy
that could topple the entire national government: and put
Hughes in great danger...
Words
of Farewell: Ed and Al have decided to stop searching
for the Philosopher's Stone. They leave Central and catch
a train headed South. However, Winry discovers that their
journey will take them past the "holy land of automail
mechanics - Rush Valley" which she has always wanted
to visit. Meanwhile, Hughes has discovered the shocking truth
behind the Fifth Laboratory - a truth that if it gets out
could topple the Government. This episode also has a shock
twist which will leave fans shell-shocked.
Her
Reason: While in Rush Valley Ed, Al and Winry meet
a girl named Paninya. This girl has an arm and a leg made
of automail. And Winry soon hits on an idea to show Ed that
she is the best automail maker there is. This is the first
episode of the show's third series. This sees a new opening
and closing title sequence and song.
Teacher:
Ed and Al accidentally run into their old teacher, Izumi,
who they know will be furious with them for becoming State
Alchemists. Izumi is surprised to see that Al is not the little
boy she remembered and takes the brothers back to her hometown
to interrogation them. Here we learn why trying to bring the
dead back to life is impossible, when a little girl asks Izumi
to resurrect her dead cat.
All
is One, One is All: Years ago, under Izumi tutorage, Ed
and Al were left to fend for themselves for a month on a deserted
island in order to pass their initiation. While there they
had to solve the meaning of the phrase "All is one, one
is all". Now Izumi wants them to repeat this exercise.
As the episode progresses we get to see, via flashback, how
the two managed to cope the first time around.
Extras
include textless opening and closing titles as well as production
art.
This
volume contains four excellent episodes that move the story
along nicely. As usual there are plenty of gags to keep you
smiling - including yet anther couple of digs at Ed's height.
