Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This trilogy was filmed back-to-back, making it one of Japan's most ambitious live-action manga adaptations ever attempted.
The director deliberately aged up the cast to avoid the uncomfortable reality of child soldiers, which ironically mutes the core tragedy of the Elrics' stolen youth.
