Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos



Fullmetal Alchemist: Milos no Sei naru Hoshi (The Sacred Star of Milos) is an animated movie based off the storyline of the manga and the second anime. It is the second film based on the popular Fullmetal Alchemist franchise, the first being Fullmetal Alchemist the Movie: Conqueror of Shamballa, and is set to premiere in Japan on July 2nd, 2011.

At the end of the last episode of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, an announcement was made declaring that a Brotherhood movie had been green-lit and would be coming to Japanese theaters at some point in the near future. On November 14, 2010, the movie website launched a teaser trailer stating that the movie's title would be Fullmetal Alchemist: Milos no Sei-Naru Hoshi and that it would be released in the summer of 2011. Based on the teaser, the film appears to take place before the series' finale, and will involve movie-only characters and an original story, including what appears to be a werewolf-like chimera, an army of winged soldiers, an alchemist with a talent in water transmutations, and a mysterious castle, which appears to be named Table City in the most recent trailer. On the website, two new characters have so far been listed: Julia Crichton and Melvin Voyager. The film, contrary to many rumors, will be animated and not live-action.

By looking at the style of drawing and color, it is positive that the one who drew it isn't much of Hiromu Arakawa's old style. As you can see the colors are sharper, you can also tell that the style and color of Riza Hawkeye's eye is slightly different, the shape of Roy Mustang's eye is different as well, Edward Elric's hair is usually outlined with a similar color of blond, but it is outlined with black like the first series of the Fullmetal Alchemist.
