We start with Rock who is a white collar from Tokyo, eventually he ends up being taken as a hostage by the smuggling company "Lagoon", meeting with Revy (the co-protagonist).
Althogh Rebecca (Revy) is advertised as main protagonist (Shonen?), don't be fooled, the real protagonist is Rock and especially the twisting of his mind / character by the passing of the months and months spent in roanapur with the Lagoon team.
He probably get negatively affected by Revy, an maybe fragile due to the stress situation he was suffering back working in Tokio.
The character are very well assorted, however, please keep in mind this series is not suitable for minors.
But the more you get into the series the more the fighting scenes start to look like US 80's action movie scene (not realistic), this is in my opinion the biggest issue, and keep in mind here I consider only the series and not the OAV (which is even worse on this respect).
Finally, I can't forget Shenhua, she is awesome, ok maybe not fully realistic, maybe also some kind of fan service, but in the EN dub versions when she speaks... she drive nuts, especially when arguing with Revy...

We follow the steps of Edward and Alphonse Elric, two alchemists seeking for a way how to recover their bodies lost in a terrible ritual of years ago when they were still children.
Week by week, a piece of the puzzle is inserted and become clear to them that an even worst situation is upcoming, a terrific scale event which can change the fate of the world... Compelling, never boring, I would say really good but some details: The characters are nice but pretty basic, I would say more for children, this collides with level of violence/gore which is high and clearly not for children.
Especially Greed / Lin Yao, if you review carefully from beginning to the end, looks more like a character out of a children anime rather than a knifes battle one.
