When I decided to watch this OVA I really wasn't expecting anything special. I decided to watch this just because I had nothing else to do on my Monday afternoon. Thank God I had nothing to do because this OVA was very much worth the 17 minutes I spended on it.
The story of the "Blind Alchemist" picks up with Ed and All deciding to go to an alchemist who is believed to have been able to do a transmutation of some sort. This story doesn't seem too exiting and maybe a couple people can make out the ending because of the "Blind Alchemist" part of the tittle but trust me most people will be very surprised to see what happens. It centers on the main theme of the anime. Ed and All doing everything they can trying to get their bodies back. But going to this Alchemist should have been the last thing they do.
The animation is typical Fullmetal Alchemist. There's nothing to say about it. If you watch the anime you'll know what I'm talking about. The sound is also typical FMA. It's sad when it's supposed to be and exciting when it's supposed to be.
The characters in this OVA are all really special. Every character is somehow important, even those gardners play some part. By the end of this OVA you'll feel something for at least one of the new characters.
I really enjoyed this OVA. Like I said before I wasn't expecting much especially after I saw it was only 17 minutes long I thought it would have been a poorly done OVA by my favorite animation company. This was by far bad and it was very enjoyable.
Overall this OVA is a quick watch for anyone that's a fan of the anime. If you think FMA is a good anime then you will love this OVA.
