So, you're diving into the epic world of alchemy, sibling bonds, and really, really cool automail? You're about to experience Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood! But before you get comfy on the couch, let's answer the burning question: How many episodes are you signing up for?
The Magic Number: 64
That's it! The grand total is 64 episodes. Sixty-four chapters of adventure, laughter, tears, and philosophical pondering. Prepare yourself; it's a journey!

Why This Number Matters
This isn't just some random figure. This episode count allows Brotherhood to (mostly) faithfully adapt the entire manga series by Hiromu Arakawa. That means you're getting the full, uncut story of Edward and Alphonse Elric’s quest.
Unlike the first Fullmetal Alchemist anime, which veered off into its own unique storyline, Brotherhood sticks closely to the source material. So, every episode is a piece of the puzzle.
A Marathon, Not a Sprint (Unless You Binge)
Sixty-four episodes might seem like a lot, but don't be intimidated! Think of it as an investment in a story you won't forget.
Many people choose to binge it (we won't judge!), but savoring the episodes can also be a great way to appreciate the intricate plot and character development. Remember that opening theme? You will hear it 64 times!
From Goofy to Gut-Wrenching
The series has a fantastic way of balancing its tone. One minute you're laughing at Ed's short stature jokes, the next you're reaching for the tissues.
Trust us, you'll need both a sense of humor and a box of tissues handy. Especially when you get to that episode. You know the one. (Okay, there are several "that" episodes.)
Beyond the Episodes
Don't forget about the movies and OVAs! While the 64 episodes tell the main story, there are extra bits of Fullmetal Alchemist goodness to discover.
Think of them as bonus content, little treats to enhance your experience. They offer insights into side characters and explore untold stories.
Enjoy watching Brotherhood! You're in for a wild ride filled with memorable characters, amazing animation, and a story that will stick with you long after the credits roll. Get ready to salute!
"A lesson without pain is meaningless. That's because no one can gain something without sacrificing something else in return. But once you have overcome it and made it your own... you will gain an irreplaceable fullmetal heart."
One last thing, are you ready to yell "ALPHONSE!" and "EDWARD!" at the top of your lungs? Because that's definitely going to happen.
