I was an adamant fan of the original Fullmetal Alchemist series, and it took me no more than a week to finish the original fifty one episodes. This series, however, is probably nine times better. Even seeing the original this is a completely new experience after about the first six or seven episodes. The artwork is great, not that the original was bad, but it just seems to have a slightly updated, high definition spin on the old. It also seems to add a bit more gore than the original, showing the inner workings of the fights rather than just blood squirts. I love this series, and even if you weren't a fan of the old series this one will likely suck you in with its elaborate plot and the way it propels you straight into it once the ice is broken.
