Viewing order
- 1.Fullmetal Alchemist: BrotherhoodMain story
TV
This is a complete adaptation with its own beginning and ending. The 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist series is a separate adaptation and is not a prequel.
Titles, formats, episode counts, and years come from AniList when available. This viewing order was checked against the official franchise sources linked below.
Canon, filler and optional episodes
Watch Brotherhood from episode 1 in order. This guide covers the Brotherhood adaptation only; it does not combine it with the separate 2003 series.
Where movies and OVAs fit
No movie is required to complete Brotherhood's main story. Optional bonus OVAs can be watched after the TV series.
Spoiler-safe beginner path
- Start with Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood episode 1.
- Continue through the TV series finale.
- Treat the 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist series as a separate adaptation, if you choose to watch it.
Continue in the manga
Brotherhood adapts the manga's complete main story, so there is no next manga chapter required after the finale.
