~ The Fullmetal Alchemist Archive: The Complete Guide. Anyone know about this?? ~

So I found this on Barnes & Noble.com's web site - slated to be published/released March 2007 by Kazuhisa Fujie and Walt Wymanskip

Has anyone heard about this? My only thought is that it's a combo of the two guide books - rather than have seperate volumes for the anime and manga, perhaps they've crammed it all into one book.

If anyone has any info at all on this, please let me know! B/C if it's what I think it is, I'm going to hold off on buying the guide books that are out now!

Thanks in advance!!

Haven't heard about it, but that sounds awesome. O_O

I search a few sites and found nothing. I'm sorry. though the book sounds awesome, it its less than 40$ canadian I'll buy it

I found the pic of the cover, and at the bottom it says "Not Authorized by......" ... part I can't read, but I guess it's not "official" book??
BTW, you can by it at WalMart.com also, and it's less than $10.00.

Sounds to me that its an unofficial guide to the TV series. Sorta like the ones that are available for Eva and Naruto. An American creation but fans may want it ;3

Authorized or not, I'd like that.



I believe it says "Shueisha". They're involved with FMA and/or anime in general, though how they are escapes me at the moment.

@Triple_Soul_Alchemist - Oh, thanks!! You got better eyes!!
Yap, "Shueisha" is a publishing company in Japan, and yes it does publish children's magazines, learning aid books, and stuff like that, I think.

Ah. So that means that artbook is not officially done in Japanese.... aka it's not worth buying because really, how accurate will that artbook be since it's done in America. I mean, they thought Arakawa was a man. Seriously, don't even spend a cent for it unless you wanted it for the art.

Heh-heh... forgot about this topic... ^^;

Thanks, you guys! Especially you, Tombow!

i'd want it;;

I just bought the book from an anime and manga website. I can't wait until I receive it in the mail^^
