Breaking the laws of nature is a serious crime!

In an alchemical ritual gone wrong, Edward Elric lost his arm and his leg, and his brother Alphonse became nothing but a soul in a suit of armour. Equipped with mechanical “auto-mail” limbs, Edward becomes a state alchemist, seeking the one thing that can restore his and his brother’s bodies... the legendary Philosopher’s Stone.

Betrayal and double-crossing are the order of the day. Greed, Pride, and Envy prove to be formidable enemies, but one homunculus seems to be having pangs of—could it be?—conscience. Ominous news spreads quickly about a mysterious portal. Will this gateway help the Elric brothers regain their natural bodies? And will the gigantic underground transmutation circle be completed, leading to a major regime change?

Plus, a moving reunion between Al and someone from his past!

Fullmetal Alchemist, Vol. 20 brings more twists and intriguing revelations to the enthralling tale of brotherhood and perseverance.
