Tra il manga e cose mai avvenute, però alziamo le mani perché Harakawa ha collaborato agli storyboard con gli studios Bones.

Episode Context

Coming directly off Episode 14's revelation about the philosopher's stone's connection to the Ishbal rebellion, Episode 15 delivers the full weight of that history, transforming background lore into a devastating character study. This episode deepens the moral stakes for the entire cast, particularly Mustang and Armstrong, and reframes the Elric brothers' quest by forcing them to reckon with alchemy's bloodstained legacy. It sets critical groundwork for the ideological conflicts and character motivations that drive the series through its middle act.
