I guess the most scaring question about this whole thing is: why on earth would you want to make a human?

For me, that's even more scary than believing it might be possible based on an anime. ¬¬'

But for the sake of Alchemy and for those who say such nonsense about it: the REAL Alchemy has close to nothing to do with "transmutation" in the pratical sense of the word, let alone creating humans. All Alchemical knowledge was codified in SIMBOLIC systems as to avoid being persecuted by the Chuch. That because, in essence, Alchemy is a "religion", whose goal is the development of the Human Being, trying to bring Humanity closer to God and divinity. The "making of gold", the "Magnum Opus" aka "Human Transmutation", the creation of Homunuli are all ONE and only thing: different ways to talk about this religious and mistical process of "sacralization" of the human.

So, if your goal is to make humans, I sugest you look elsewhere, cause TRUE alchemy will not help you there.
