[edit] OVA 1: Chibi Party

• Time Length: 6 minutes 15 seconds

[edit] Plot

An insane party riot where all of the characters from both the FMA movie and the series in chibi form are complimented for a job well done on the movie.

Envy's dragon form is really a costume and he lies that Ed hurt him a lot. Hawkeye starts an event to talk about anything about the show, which causes riot for the microphone. Ed and Al turn into their anime forms briefly and charge into the rumble, but Hawkeye runs them over with a stampede of Black Hayates. Hawkeye begins with the denouncement of Mustang (who happily believed she was declaring her reciprocated love for him and even removes his eyepatch to show he can still see with it), causing him to fall to pieces quite literally. Two suits of armor go next and reveal they are Scar and Lust. After Ed insults them for being extras (their human equivalents appear toward the end of the movie), Scar rips off his X-shaped scar and flings across the room like a shuriken, imbedding it in the head of Gluttony, who angrily eats him and Lust. Ed spies Alfons in the crowd and discovers Al is talking to him. The OVA ends with a fuming, drunk Winry demanding to know what Noa means to Ed, causing her to beat him up.

[edit] OVA 4: Alchemists vs. Homunculi

• Time Length: 10 minutes 8 seconds

[edit] Plot

The OVA focuses on a non-canon interactive episode that features the viewer as a new State Alchemist. The Fuhrer welcomes the viewer to the military and introduces himself. Juliet Douglas (Sloth) enters and hands the Fuhrer a card which he reads and quickly departs, puting the viewer under the command of Roy Mustang. It laters shows a scene when the Fuhrer, Pride, is addressing four of the Homunculi: Sloth, Wrath, Lust and Gluttony. He commands them to destroy Greed, the Elrics and Mustang's group. Mustang has a meeting with his subordinates and informs them they are dealing with the Homunculi and will venture into the unknown to rescue Ed and Al from Greed. Mustang then gives the viewer a ring with a transmutation circle on it.

Ed, Al and Winry, meanwhile, are being held captive in a church by Greed. Ed is suspended from the ceiling by a rope. Greed makes a move on Winry and tells Al he wants a body like his. Ed breaks free using alchemy and discovers that Winry is actually Envy. Greed attacks Envy, only to be sent flying away. Ed and Al chase Envy into another room where they are ambushed by Lust, Gluttony and Wrath.

Mustang and his troops arrive at the church and are blasted away by a tidal wave sent by Sloth. Mustang heads into the church while Hawkeye takes on Sloth. Ed and Al flee into a large opera room where Mustang shows up and fries the Homunculi. Sloth, Hawkeye and the Mustang's troops, Major Armstrong, Kimbly, Archer and all of the State Alchemists arrive. An intense battle pursues with the military losing to the Homunculi. Mustang sees the viewer hiding and tells the viewer to use his alchemic powers. He is strangled by Sloth and the viewer activates the ring they has which creates millions of giant transmuation circles. Everyone looks on in horror as the entire building explodes. Later, the military troops are all alive but the Homunculi fled. Ed and Al approach the viewer and congratulate them for their work and depart.

[edit] Notes

• Greed is defeated by Envy in the form of a captured Winry.
• The Homunculi were given the ability to revive themselves.
• This is the only Fullmetal Alchemist OVA where the viewer interacts with the characters and has a role in the plot.
• The OVA is very confusing as it features characters or events that take place before or after eachother in the anime and is considered non-canon. For example, Greed and Kimbley are still alive in the OVA and Archer has his automail parts. In addition, Kimbley and Archer fought the Homunculi on the side of the State Military. Also Pride has been revealed. Plus, in the anime the State Military never had a confrontation with the Homunculi, except for Ed, Mustang and Hughes.
