Fullmetal Alchemist
Edward and Alphonse Elric are brothers who are good at alchemy, which is the science of turning one thing into something else. But alchemy is based on the idea of "Equivalent Exchange," which says that in order to make something, something else of equal value must be given up. When their mother dies, Edward does the unthinkable: he breaks one of Alchemy's biggest rules and uses Human Alchemy to bring her back to life. He and Alphonse try because they think they have nothing left to lose, but something terrible happens. In this process, Alphonse loses his body and Edward loses his leg. Ed saves Al by attaching his spirit to a suit of armor, but he loses an arm and a leg in the process.
