Listen up!

Shine those boots until you can eat off of them!

As a punishment, drop and give me 25!

Sir, yes sir!

One!

Two!

Three!

Four!

What the hell are you maggots doing!?

Five!

Your buttons aren't done properly!

As a punishment, drop and give me 25!

Sir, yes sir!

One!

Two!

And what my dad said next was great...

"You have to get more medals than me!" Just like that.

You'd have to become a general to do that.

Yeah, I know!

Are you all right?

That hurt...

Where are you looking?

Sorry about that, are you all right?

An Ishvalan, huh?

I shouldn't have apologized.

Some strange smell got on me.

Is it the smell of an Ishvalan?

Anyway what's an Ishva...

Let's go!

I don't have time to waste on this trash!

Y-Yeah...

Are you all right?

How unfortunate.

I'm used to it.

Thank you.

Sorry.

Spinach quiche,

it's my favorite.

So he's friends with them, huh?

I'm starving.

Time for some food!

Sorry.

Spinach quiche, it's my favorite.

Are those guys monsters?

Maes Hughes!

As a rule, in battle, you must unite your spirits together in order to win.

Excellent!

Now, what is the meaning, Frederick Sheffield?

I don't know!

Then you've died!

Roy Mustang!

When fighting,

you must engage in battle according to your superiors' plan,

and win by adapting your tactics to the changing situation.

Excellent!

Next!

The direct and the indirect lead on to each other in turn. It is like moving in a circle, you never come to an end.

Have you noticed those two have been competing recently?

You're right.

You're too cocky for an Ishvalan.

That's right.

You think you're in the same league as us?

Stop that!

Who are you?

If I'm not mistaken, you're Mustang from the year below.

Ishvalans have the same rights as Amestrians by law.

This is precisely why we entered the military academy!

They're just backward people who have to do what we say.

Hang in there.

The Ishvalan's smell will get all over you!

It stinks!

Bastard!

Are you going to disobey a superior?

That's far enough, Roy Mustang!

Maes?

Y-You shouldn't have a gun.

You seniors, please keep quiet about this.

I'll finish these two off myself.

Roy Mustang and the Ishvalan, come here.

Wh-What are you going to do, Maes?

You know, people who bully others like this...

...are the ones I hate most!!!

Unite together,

and win with your spirit!

What's your name?

Heathcliff.

Heathcliff Arber.

That's a perfect name, isn't it?

Heathcliff, why did you enter the military academy?

For my Ishvalan brethren.

I'll become an officer,

and work from within the military to erase discrimination.

And how about you?

Amestris is surrounded by powerful military nations.

I want to become a cornerstone that protects this country.

I don't mind dying in a ditch for that cause.

And I wouldn't die for anything in a ditch.

I'll survive even if I have to eat weeds.

Then why did you enter the academy?

You may want to protect the country, but I want to protect the woman I love.

You found a woman that great?

You're such an idiot, of course I'm going to find one that great somewhere.

What's the situation?

They're firing on us from the roof of that building in front.

It's impossible to break through with the forces we have here.

I see.

Right, I'll crush them!

Yes, sir!

Alright!

Heathcliff?

Roy Mustang?

Why?

Roy!

Roy Mustang!

We've got work to do, Major Mustang.

Today at 0730 hours, we will commence the extermination of district number 27.

They said they'd be counting on you today as usual.

They're all slave drivers.

They all expect a lot from you. At this rate you'll be promoted soon.

Hey, Hughes... Why am I killing the people of my own country?

I told you, the Ishvalans disturbed the peace of the country,

and now the higher-ups in Central have ordered us to purge them.

"Purge," huh?

What a convenient word to disguise indiscriminate slaughter.

Speaking of Central...

Gracia sent me a letter. It came with a picture, wanna see?

It'd be really hard for me if I weren't loved.

She really is a good woman.

Once the war is over and things have calmed down, I'm thinking about proposing to her.

I'll invite you to the wedding, so be prepared.

You'll embrace the woman you love with those hands covered in blood?

I learned this on the battlefield!

Living with the woman you love is a happiness that can exist anywhere!

But it's the greatest happiness!

I'll do anything to get that happiness! I'll survive!

What I've done here...

I'll take in all that I've done here, alone, and smile when I'm in front of her.

I'll make her happy.

We don't have time to talk about such trivial things.

We've got work to do. Hurry and get ready.

Could you wait for 30 seconds?

Just 30 seconds then.

It's been 30 seconds.

Stand up, Flame Alchemist.

It's time for work.

Yes, let's go.

It's time for war.

Papa!

Mother, I've returned!

You've gotten so big!

I'm so glad you're alright.

She said she would come meet me in her letter but...

Maes!

Gracia.

Gracia!

Maes!

What I've done here...

I'll take in all alone...

...and smile when I'm in front of her.

Hughes...

...you're strong...

I don't have your strength.
