Best Fullmetal Alchemist Songs

The Top Ten
1 Again

This song is so cool and it suits the series well. It's sad, intense, and determined all at once. Just like Ed!

It has an amazing tune to it. I can't help but (try to) sing/rap along.

Cool, epic, and dynamic. I really wish all the openings were like that one!

2 Rewrite

The song won the best anime song award in the USA. And it's a song from one of my favorite bands, i.e., Asian Kung-Fu Generation. It's also the final opening of the Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) version.

My second favorite is "Period" by Chemistry. I don't understand why people love "Rain" so much. I found the song completely out of sync with Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood as an anime.

I loved how dark this letter was related to the series. The song, melody, and moments within the same opening were embodied to perfection.

By far my favorite opening within all the animes I've seen (and I've seen many).

3 Period

Guys, I actually have no words to say. This opening song always leaves me speechless every time I hear it. Why? Because it's just so good and badass.

Especially the part where Pride appears and shoots shadowy blades everywhere! That certainly makes me feel like, "What the hell was that? That cool scene must be rewound and watched again..." (I really broke the replay button because of this song). I highly recommend this song next to "Golden Time Lover" (which may seem weird, but you'll end up liking it). I always listen to this song at full blast while at school.

4 Hologram

I love this song so much. How is it not in at least the top three?

5 Rain

This song is beautiful. Everything about it in the opening credits makes me want to cry. From Fuhrer Bradley shedding a tear, to Winry and Hawkeye crying as well.

I especially loved it when it was played at the end of episode 63 when Hohenheim died. It's really deep.

This is so good, maybe just as good as Again. I can sing both the Japanese version and the English version.

6 Melissa

The first opening for Fullmetal Alchemist. This song is catchy as hell!

I love this song. I can listen to it on repeat and not get tired of it!

7 Bratja/Brothers

After finishing Fullmetal Alchemist anime, I started searching for this beautiful song right away. I put on the song, closed my eyes, and sat in my chair, forgetting everything. It just felt like my soul was leaving my earthly body and flying away.

No more words for how much I loved this particular track in this anime. This track is heaven!

This song was amazing. It completely portrays the struggles and hardships that have faced the brothers on their journey. The song is also absolutely beautiful with its mellow tone and choir.

Plus, in the English version, it is the VA of Ed, Vic Mignogna, that sings. This should without a doubt be in the top 3 if not in first place. Simply a breathtaking song.

8 Link

My favorite song! L'Arc-en-Ciel did better on this than Ready Steady Go!

9 Uso

I can sing the Japanese version!

10 Golden Time Lover

I don't get why some people hate this opening. I mean, sure its song is kind of weird if you first heard it (I thought that too). But once you get used to it, you realize that it's actually a very good song (especially if you heard the full version).

And the animation is truly amazing. So fast-paced yet so detailed. Especially when Major-General Armstrong appeared. That part is what really made me catch my breath and break the replay button.

It's like a basketball shoe. Takes time to break in, but then becomes one of your favorite songs. For FMAB, I'd rate the songs:

1. Period
2T. Again, Rain, Golden Time Lover
2. Hologram

I don't really get why people like Hologram.

The Contenders
11 Scandal
12 Let It All Out

They needed to show more characters, but otherwise good.

13 Kesenai Tsumi
14 Ready Steady Go
15 Undo
16 Shunkan Sentimental

This is just as good as Again if it weren't for the fact that Again is the best.

17 I Will

This outro will never not get me. The "stay" part with the pictures of Trisha, Nina, Scar, and Maes just rips my heart to shreds each time.

18 Tobira No Mukou E

What the hell? How come this isn't in the Top 5? This is so good. One of the best anime endings.

Absolutely killer song. Fits the situation and atmosphere perfectly.
