    • The Full Metal Equestrian
      My first try at a fanfic. Edward and Alphonse Elric from "Full Metal Alchemist" wake up in Equestria

      18,910 words · 2,490 views · 141 likes · 5 dislikes

    After spending months fighting for their lives in Nazi Germany, Edward and Alphonse Elric believe they have crafted a way to reopen the Gate of Truth, and return home to their world. However, without the aid of their alchemy, the brother's find themselves separated, and in an unfamiliar world with even less familiar bodies. Combining their alchemical powers with unicorn magic, can they find a way back to Amestris?

    Hey all. I've never let anyone see anything I've written before, but I decided it would be good to get some opinions on this story I've been working on. My first fanfic, and really just something that came into my head. I don't believe there are a whole lot of FMA/MLP crossovers on this site, so I may as well throw mine into the mix! If anypony has any title suggestions/would like to design a cover, I'd really appreciate it! You all could probably do better than I could!

    For you FMA fans, the only solid details I'm drawing are the obvious facts about the Elric's, and that this story would take place after the Conqueror of Shamballa movie.

    Enjoy, and critique is both encouraged and requested!

    While I prefer the manga over the first anime, I can't complain here. You have a good start, it is a little rushed but then given how awkward it can be to start a crossover you did well. There are 3 FMA/MLP crossovers on fanfiction.net, didn't like any of them myself, I like your story so far and I will be looking forward to more chapters.

    I read the original manga, I loved it. I watched the original FMA TV show, and I can't even express how much I enjoyed that show. Even to this day I want them to finish that series. I hated FMA: Brotherhood though... It was to Animeish for me, and thats why I love the origanal FMA cause it wasn't like the others, it was powerful and epic.

    (Not for you) I liked where this story is heading, I want to see what happened to Al and I want to see how Ed reacts to life in Ponyville.

    Don't get me wrong, I liked the first Anime I just liked the manga's story more epically the ending (I haven't gotten around to watching Brotherhood).

    Back to the story; I am looking forward to seeing the main 6's reaction to Ed and Al's story. I'm guessing something along the lines of :fluttercry::raritycry::pinkiegasp::rainbowderp:

    Wow, I was only gone a few days, and already so many comments! Thanks a lot everyone, this is already way more attention than I thought I'd be getting! Don't worry, there will definitely be more coming! And, after reading all of your questions/reactions, I can say that I've already planned to address all of them! Thanks for the critiques, I'll have them in mind when writing!

    Thanks again, everybody! :pinkiehappy:

    Also, as far as FMA goes, I am a HUGE fan of the manga, 2003 series and Brotherhood! I could never pick one over the others, but, seeing as they'd already addressed the parallel universe theory in Conqueror of Shamballa, it was the easiest to write in.

    Looking good, I just realized another reason why using the movie is a good thing; Ed actual would know enough about automail to make replacements, they wouldn't be as good as Winry's but they would be fully functional. Now the only problem I have is waiting for the next chapter.

    Anyway, it's pretty good so far; though I think gathering up the gang to make some auto-mail as quickly as you did was a bit rushed. In any case, I'll track for now - rating pending. I await more, so keep up the good work. :twilightsmile:

    Definitely a good story man, I am gonna have to follow this. While a lot of people usually demand for chapters to be longer (like with what I'm trying to do now. wanna please my fans) I see that short ones are nice too. They don't drag on and you can release more chapters in a short matter of time. Making your fans happy that updates are coming often.

    The one thing i like the most about this is mostly.....how Celestia interacts with Al who used to be human and explains to her about humans and etc BUT in good details. (Sorry if it sounds a bit off)

    I read most crossover stories involve with humans and ponies which I'm fine with that. But some often rush about telling them their humans and explain things too fast I guess. Yours however is just pretty much simple and explanatory so brohoof man, brohoof. :twilightsmile:

    You're trying a bit too hard to cram information into the story. Imagine yourself as Edward in the body of a pony, you're going to have all kinds of questions. Suddenly explaining to Twilight how Auto-mail works, instead of simply answering her question (what is that metal for), doesn't seem too high on the priority list. From the anime doesn't Ed tend to dodge questions/change subject when it involves explaining things he already knows?

    Did Al commit some crime? Why is he in a dungeon? If Celestia simply wished to talk to him, does a dungeon feel like a good way to get off on the right hoof? I can picture Al waking up in a guest room or something.

    Just a suggestion: Think about how your characters see the world. Every action they take must have some motive behind it. For example, if Ed woke up in the body of a pony he's going to have a ton of questions, one of the most pressing might involve fact he can't find his brother.

    To answer your question about Al in the dungeon, I chose that as his setting because seeing as he'd fallen from a whirling vortex, Celestia might see him as dangerous. For example, if he had been evil, Celestia wouldn't have hesitated to banish him (or something).

    Also, as for Edward, I'm keeping him quiet only for the time being. He's 18 now, and should be acting a little more mature. He's just trying to put on a brave face in a world full of strangers, when the time comes, he'll open up. At least a little.

    Thanks for the critique, I really do appreciate it. :pinkiesmile: Sadly, a problem in and of itself is that I'm clearly not conveying the message that I want to. I'll work harder on that.
