Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Season 01
E61 - He Who Would Swallow God
Those present in Father’s lair survive the human transmutation, discovering the Homunculus has used over fifty million Amestrian souls to suppress the Eye of God within a reborn body. Father neutralizes the use of alchemy and prepares to annihilate them. However over the years, Hohenheim had placed fragments of his own philosopher’s stone across the country to neutralize the transmutation circle. These stone fragments are activated by the eclipse’s umbra, and the human souls are ripped from Father. He is weakened and forced to relinquish the Eye of God. Father then attacks Edward’s group but May’s alkahestry combined with Hohenheim’s philosopher’s stone resist him. Above, Scar manages to deliver a fatal blow when Bradley is blinded by sunlight as the sun re-emerges. Scar then activates the nationwide alkahestry circle prepared by his fellow Ishvalans which restores alchemy to its greatest potential. Father heads above ground searching for more souls to replenish his stone supply and is chased by Edward’s team. Edward stays to fight Pride who attempts to replace his deteriorating body with Edward’s. However, Kimblee’s soul reappears thwarting him and enabling Edward to enter Pride’s body and destroy it. Pride reverts to a small foetus-like creature which Edward spares and then he leaves to join his friends.
