[00:01] ---
    The sun is a he. It represents masculinity.
[00:05] ---
    The moon is a she. It represents femininity.
[00:08] ---
    When the sun and the moon intersect,
[00:11] ---
    it means both genders in one.
[00:13] ---
    In other words, it represents a perfect being.
[00:17] ---
    I wonder if by perfect being,
    it means immortality.
[00:20] ---
    Hmm, or something even more incredible?
[00:24] ---
    Even more incredible?
[00:25] ---
    Like, say, God, or something.
[00:33] ---
    Yes, come to me!
[00:36] ---
    I will continue to be bound by you no longer!
[00:40] ---
    I shall drag you down to the earth,
    and make you a part of me!
[01:40] ---
    Is everyone all right? What happened?
[01:43] ---
    Well done, my sacrifices.
[01:52] ---
    You actually did it!
[01:54] ---
    Yeah. I have acquired... God.
[01:58] ---
    God?! How can that be?
[02:01] ---
    It's possible, given a large
    enough amount of energy.
[02:06] ---
    Energy... a Philosopher's Stone?!
[02:10] ---
    It can't be...
[02:11] ---
    You mean, everyone was turned
    into a Philosopher's Stone?!
[02:14] ---
    Just how many people were sacrificed...?
[02:18] ---
    The population of this country is about 50 million.
[02:30] ---
    You bastard!
[02:34] ---
    Damn!
[02:35] ---
    Your alchemy is bound.
[02:38] ---
    Farewell, gentlemen.
[02:41] ---
    What are you doing?
[02:43] ---
    Now that I have obtained God,
[02:46] ---
    it is even possible for me to create
    suns in the palm of my hand.
[02:56] ---
    Shall I turn it loose in here?
[03:04] ---
    From the moment that you
    obtained God, or whatever,
[03:07] ---
    we had already started turning the tables on you.
[03:16] ---
    Over many long years,
    I calculated, and calculated,
[03:21] ---
    arranging the Philosopher's Stones--
    the friends inside me--
[03:26] ---
    in preparation for this day.
[03:35] ---
    The time has come.
[03:37] ---
    He has done that which must not be done.
[03:42] ---
    There are no longer bodies for us to return to.
[03:45] ---
    However, the people of Amestris
    do have bodies to go back to.
[03:50] ---
    Yes. Let's return their souls back to their bodies.
[03:56] ---
    It is what Hohenheim asked of us.
[04:00] ---
    You just drove in Philosopher's Stones?
    But they are merely points.
[04:05] ---
    Without a circle, they will not activate.
[04:08] ---
    That is a fundamental of alchemy.
[04:10] ---
    But we do have a circle.
    Something with such enormous power,
[04:15] ---
    it would activate on its own, even if
    something were to happen to me!
[04:24] ---
    The shadow of the moon,
    cast upon the earth by the eclipse!
[04:28] ---
    We're going on ahead, Hohenheim.
[04:38] ---
    You would block me,
    no matter what, Hohenheim?!
[04:42] ---
    That is the reason I came here,
    Dwarf in the Flask, Homunculus!
[06:04] ---
    The days going by are getting in the way
[06:11] ---
    of the new morning I'd found at last
[06:15] ---
    It wasn't "next" that I was headed toward,
[06:15] ---
    Winry, are you all right?
[06:18] ---
    What was that just now?
[06:20] ---
    but "bygone" that I was always chasing after
[06:21] ---
    Did we all lose consciousness?
[06:25] ---
    Ms. Pinako, you, too?
[06:25] ---
    My incessant, merciless memories
[06:26] ---
    So it would seem.
[06:28] ---
    But that was...
[06:30] ---
    don't seem likely to forgive me
[06:31] ---
    How would you even describe it? It was like...
[06:35] ---
    It felt like we were inside a vortex of anguish.
[06:36] ---
    It may not be long before my turmoil spills out
[06:40] ---
    down cheeks wearied by my fumbling about
[06:43] ---
    Did it work?
[06:44] ---
    The souls of the people of Amestris
[06:45] ---
    Will the rain ever stop?
[06:47] ---
    have each returned to their own bodies.
[06:50] ---
    And with just the souls of the
    Xerxesians that he already had,
[06:50] ---
    I've been cold for such a long time
[06:54] ---
    I doubt he can keep what
    he calls God suppressed.
[06:55] ---
    Why does the rain choose me?
[07:01] ---
    Can I wrap myself up in it?
[07:03] ---
    I can always create another Philosopher's Stone.
[07:05] ---
    The rain is unrelenting,
[07:06] ---
    Using a hundred million, or even a billion!
[07:09] ---
    There is no shortage of
    the energy that humans are!
[07:10] ---
    and it's still coming down today,
[07:15] ---
    but tenderly, under an extended umbrella,
[07:21] ---
    we share our warmth as we huddle close
[07:29] ---
    May!
[07:30] ---
    Reading the flow of power in the ground,
[07:32] ---
    and making use of it, is an
    alkahestrist's stock in trade.
[07:35] ---
    What's more, the greater
    the power the other side has,
[07:38] ---
    the greater the power that I can use becomes.
[07:42] ---
    Mister, dead ahead!
[07:51] ---
    Damn. I don't have what it
    takes to cancel out his energy!
[07:57] ---
    Please hang in there, mister.
    My defensive array is crumbling!
[08:05] ---
    It's no use!
[08:08] ---
    Dad, hang in there!
[08:10] ---
    Come on, you bastard! Stay focused!
[08:15] ---
    What can I say? I'm just a foolish old man,
[08:20] ---
    but now I want to show off what I've got!
[08:25] ---
    If this doesn't end soon,
[08:26] ---
    the Philosopher's Stone inside Dad will run out!
[08:30] ---
    Aren't you done yet, Scar?!
[08:33] ---
    Ishvalan!
[08:35] ---
    I thought that alchemy--
    the construction of matter--
[08:38] ---
    was blasphemy against Ishvala,
    the creator of all things!
[08:49] ---
    Have you abandoned your god?
[08:55] ---
    Is that all that your god...
[09:01] ---
    ...is to you people?
[09:05] ---
    Nay!
[09:08] ---
    During the Ishvalan Civil War...
[09:14] ---
    ...when you were steeped in despair...
[09:21] ---
    ...you must have thought,
    somewhere in your heart,
[09:25] ---
    that there was no god, anywhere in this world!
[10:05] ---
    I never believed in fate, or God...
[10:08] ---
    ...but I suppose it can be said of this
[10:10] ---
    that Providence has taken no favor with me.
[10:21] ---
    The heavens have sent me
    a rather dashing visitor.
[10:27] ---
    Here to avenge your grandfather? Very well.
[10:32] ---
    Any last words?
[10:34] ---
    None.
[10:36] ---
    Such a sad life, King Bradley.
    Was there no one that you loved?
[10:43] ---
    Your friends? Your wife?
[10:47] ---
    My wife?
[10:48] ---
    Are you saying you have nothing to say to her?!
[10:51] ---
    When she finds out that you are a Homunculus...
[10:54] ---
    Do not befoul yourself with such trivial words
[10:56] ---
    as "sad" and "love," young lady.
[11:00] ---
    Do not mock me. She is the woman that I chose.
[11:06] ---
    There is no need for any last words between us.
[11:10] ---
    That is what it is to be the wife of a king.
[11:18] ---
    While engaging yourself in pointless questions,
[11:20] ---
    you've missed your chance
    at vengeance, young lady.
[11:31] ---
    My life was lived on the rails
    that were laid down for me,
[11:36] ---
    but thanks to you humans,
    it was, to some degree,
[11:42] ---
    a good life, one worth living.
[11:59] ---
    I'm sensing life.
[12:02] ---
    It's a Philosopher's Stone.
[12:05] ---
    This?
[12:09] ---
    Are you all right?
[12:12] ---
    Take me over there.
[12:15] ---
    The transmutation circle is broken.
[12:19] ---
    No matter! Over there is where the center is.
[12:23] ---
    All right.
[12:31] ---
    Brother...
[12:33] ---
    To tell you the truth,
    the hatred inside me is not gone.

[12:37] ---
    And yet, I am about to help Amestris,
    the object of my hatred.

[12:44] ---
    Brother, you spoke of positive streams,
    and negative streams,

[12:48] ---
    but as I paradoxically carry both of them...
[12:55] ---
    ...I wonder which way I will flow.
[13:13] ---
    Here it comes!
[13:28] ---
    Take that! The seat that you so
    arrogantly recline on is rubble!
[13:35] ---
    You've been so self-indulgent, you bastard.
[13:39] ---
    I'm gonna kick your ass,
    right along with that damn truth!
[13:50] ---
    Was that alkahestry just now?
[13:53] ---
    No, it's what my brother came up with.
[13:58] ---
    My brother researched alchemy.
[14:01] ---
    As he expanded beyond it,
    he began to research alkahestry, too.
[14:07] ---
    Alkahestry is an art that uses
    the flow of chi through the earth.
[14:12] ---
    The alchemy of this country uses tectonic energy.
[14:17] ---
    However, my brother realized something.
[14:20] ---
    Alchemists weren't able to use it to full measure.
[14:26] ---
    There was an inhibiting component
[14:28] ---
    between the alchemist and the tectonic energy.
[14:31] ---
    I felt it when I entered this country.
[14:34] ---
    A sensation, like people were
    crawling around under the ground.
[14:38] ---
    Yes. That was probably the Philosopher's Stone
[14:42] ---
    that stretches out underground
    throughout the land.
[14:46] ---
    Take that! And that!
[14:55] ---
    Mister,
[14:56] ---
    you created a transmutation circle
    that returned everyone's souls?
[14:59] ---
    Yeah. And it worked.
[15:03] ---
    The reverse transmutation circle,
    which Scar activated,
[15:06] ---
    is there to correct the alchemy of this country.
[15:10] ---
    After all of Scar's brother's long research,
[15:13] ---
    he was skeptical about this country's alchemy,
[15:16] ---
    and went on to discover the existence
[15:18] ---
    of the nationwide transmutation circle.
[15:21] ---
    And so, using it as a base,
    he superscribed it in alkahestry,
[15:25] ---
    and developed a reverse transmutation circle
[15:28] ---
    that would render the
    Philosopher's Stone ineffective.
[15:31] ---
    Now, we can use the tectonic energy
[15:33] ---
    inhibited by the Philosopher's
    Stone to its full extent.
[15:47] ---
    Keep pouring it on! Make him
    use his Philosopher's Stone!
[15:52] ---
    At some point, he will run out of energy!
[15:54] ---
    At some point like when?!
[15:56] ---
    I don't know! I don't know,
    but you have to keep it up!
[15:59] ---
    Take this!
[16:12] ---
    That takes me back. If it isn't
    the tub I took a bath in earlier!
[16:16] ---
    You have one, too, Daddy, sir.
[16:20] ---
    Move it, Greed!
[16:36] ---
    Don't move!
[16:38] ---
    Take it nice and easy.
[16:43] ---
    Lieutenant Hawkeye?
[16:45] ---
    Major...
[16:51] ---
    W-What the...?
[16:59] ---
    That rat. He went to go
    make a Philosopher's Stone.
[17:08] ---
    --After him!
    --Right!
[17:10] ---
    And we'll get you to a safe place while we're at it.
[17:13] ---
    Sorry. I didn't expect to be so
    useless at such a critical time.
[17:17] ---
    Brother!
[17:19] ---
    Al! Go on ahead!
[17:22] ---
    He appears to want something with me.
[17:29] ---
    Al, let's go!
[17:31] ---
    Don't you let yourself get beaten, Ed!
[17:33] ---
    Right!
[17:40] ---
    Dear!
[17:42] ---
    Izumi!
[17:45] ---
    This is no time to relax. Look after the colonel.
[17:48] ---
    Right.
[17:50] ---
    Colonel!
[17:52] ---
    There's someone up there that
    we have to eliminate, so we're off.
[17:57] ---
    Are you injured, Colonel?
[17:59] ---
    My eyes have had it.
[18:02] ---
    Lieutenant, what is the status of your injuries?
[18:06] ---
    You're doing it again! Please,
    worry about yourself. Your eyes...
[18:11] ---
    Can you still fight?
[18:18] ---
    Yes, sir!
[18:27] ---
    --Young Lord!
    --It's Greed.
[18:30] ---
    Sheesh, you tagged along all the way here?
[18:35] ---
    Wrath...
[18:38] ---
    Oh... He's dead.
[18:44] ---
    He looks so content. Pisses me off.
[18:49] ---
    Greed, it's pathetic that you
    would throw away your honor...
[18:53] ---
    ...as a Homunculus.
[18:54] ---
    Why are you guys so obedient
    to that father of yours?
[18:59] ---
    What a senseless question to ask.
[19:02] ---
    It's only natural that we would
    obey our own father, isn't it?
[19:05] ---
    Ha! You're the one who's senseless.
[19:09] ---
    Only natural, you say?
    You're just a mind-numbed punk
[19:12] ---
    who doesn't try to think for himself!
[19:17] ---
    I don't get it. Why are you his willing lapdog?
[19:23] ---
    You've been worn as ragged as
    you are, and you don't even care.
[19:31] ---
    So what? Please don't go applying
[19:36] ---
    your human sensibilities onto us Homunculi!
[19:47] ---
    This container won't last much longer.
[19:50] ---
    However, since you, like my father,
    are of Hohenheim's blood,
[19:55] ---
    we are virtually brothers.
[19:58] ---
    Edward Elric, give your container--
    your body-- to me!
[20:04] ---
    W-What?!
[20:10] ---
    You cannot have it.
[20:12] ---
    Indeed, you cannot have it, Homunculus Pride.
[20:16] ---
    Kimblee! It can't be!
[20:19] ---
    There's no way you could
    maintain your individuality
[20:22] ---
    among this tempest of souls!
[20:24] ---
    Tempest? Please, don't make me laugh.
[20:28] ---
    These voices of bitterness are like a lullaby to me.
[20:34] ---
    Why are you interfering, Kimblee?!
[20:37] ---
    Yes, well, if you had kept your honor
    as a Homunculus as you fought,
[20:42] ---
    I would have done nothing.
[20:45] ---
    You speak of your pride,
    or honor, as a Homunculus,
[20:49] ---
    but the moment any danger befalls you,
[20:52] ---
    you try to escape into the container of a human,
[20:55] ---
    the lower life form that
    you look down your nose at.
[20:58] ---
    Quite unsightly of you.
[21:10] ---
    He's going to kill me!
[21:12] ---
    You do not understand Edward Elric.
[21:23] ---
    Selim!!
[21:26] ---
    Impossible... He's turned himself
    into a Philosopher's Stone,
[21:29] ---
    and now he's forcing his way inside me?!
[21:34] ---
    I've caught you, Selim!
[21:36] ---
    Stop...
[21:40] ---
    Stop!
[21:42] ---
    Please stop!!
[22:05] ---
    So that's your real body, huh?
[22:09] ---
    Once this is all over, I'll have to
    go apologize to Mrs. Bradley.
[22:15] ---
    You wait right there, Selim, you fool.
[22:23] ---
    Mama... Mama...
[22:40] ---
    Ever since that day,
[22:44] ---
    I had made up my mind not to cry
[22:48] ---
    Though the pain kept coming,
[22:54] ---
    there was something I couldn't forgive
[23:00] ---
    There's no going back after all these days
[23:05] ---
    There's still nothing I can do
[23:09] ---
    I'm losing yet another fragment
[23:15] ---
    of my memories of you
[23:21] ---
    I want to be stronger than I am today
[23:26] ---
    so that my voice may someday reach you
[23:32] ---
    I'll keep walking, and when the wind lets up,
[23:37] ---
    I'll gaze up into the sky, searching for you
[23:42] ---
    The light will shine after the day breaks
[23:50] ---
    and there will be a rainbow
[23:58] ---
    The strong arm roars; the flame thunders forth.
[24:01] ---
    Staking their existence,
    the people give their full measure!

[24:06] ---
    Yes! The final battle is now here!
[24:11] ---
    Next time on Hagane no Renkinjutsushi:
    Fullmetal Alchemist,

[24:15] ---
    Episode 62: "A Fierce Counterattack."
[24:20] ---
    In order to obtain anything,
[24:22] ---
    something of equal value is required.
