In the third OVA episode, in a moment played for humor, a woman in a dire situation declares that she can't die yet because she's still a virgin and that she wants to have children.

Three instances of mild innuendo, but nothing graphic or obscene.

Some male shirtless nudity, but nothing of a graphic nature.

The main teenage male character is shown having a shower in one episode and then stepping out of it. No graphic nudity, only implied.

In one later episode, an old man makes a suggestive joke about his wife with his grandson.

A female character is shown showering, and her tattoo-covered back is shown.(the tattoo is relevant to the plot). The scene is not meant to imply anything sexual. She is just showing him the tattoo. And no nudity is shown.

Fantasy violence and some bloody animated scenes are part of most episodes, sometimes pushing the limits of TV-PG.

Lots of cartoon violence.

There are some bloody deaths and injuries, including a scene where a father and daughter lie in a pool of blood, this is shown from afar.

Rated 15 for strong bloody violence, injury detail, threat and horror.

Bloodshed is shown periodically to varying degrees. However, the violence is stylized in a way that makes it less violent than other shows, but remains being intense at times.

A woman coughs up large amounts of blood often. However, this is usually not very graphic (usually shown in a more simplified, humorous art style) and is generally played for comedic effect.

Blood is shown during fantasy-type warfare, with swords, gore is generally never shown but blood is generally used during battles and fights.

Some of the fighting and war scenes involve some bloody deaths, but not overtly graphic to push the rating from a TV-PG to a TV-14.

Some horses, sheep and goats are seen with copious amounts of blood around them. (This is probably the most violent scene) The scene displays the ugliness of war.

A flashback into Scar's past shows his village being burned down.

A powerful warrior uses a sword to kill an entire army, this scene has some blood, but the scene is mixed with rock music so it takes the seriousness away from it. The scene is still pretty shocking.

Gore is generally never shown, although there is quite some blood in battles. Even though there is rock music playing during it, the battles are still intense.

Wrath has his arms sliced off at one point. He also bloodily cuts down numerous soldiers in a couple of battles.

Violence generally appears when battles occur, making violence somewhat infrequent.

One character believes that he will only get honour by going back into a warzone and "finishing the fight".

The sub version contains "sh*t".

Some name-calling in the dub, such as moron, pissant. Uses of hell, damn, bastard, crap, and piss. The subtitled versions vary, depending on the translator.

The dub version has many/some uses of very mild language like "hell", "damn", "bastard", "ass", "piss" and "crap". 3 uses of "bitch".

In episode 63, Greed calls Ling a pissant twice.

Mild language, mostly coming from Edward ('bastard', 'hell').

"Bitch" is said exactly three times in the entire series.

The subtitled version may be different.

One character (offscreen) becomes drunk, which is played for comedic effect.

Not many episodes contain use of alcohol, but infrequently the older characters may drink beer or similar.

Havoc smokes in a few scenes.

The series occasionally flashes back to a genocide Amestris committed against a minority group, the Ishvalans, which State Alchemists were forced to be complicit in. Due to the nature of this event, scenes featuring it are inherently distressing.

The main villain Father is quite frightening.

Some blood is seen during battles, slashes.

There is one part in an episode where Edward is impaled with a beam. He asks one of the characters to pull it out. The character does so, and pulls out the beam as Ed wails in pain. This can be very frightening to some viewers.

This series deals with heavy themes such as death, resurrection, retribution, and sacrifice, and sometimes the violence might be pretty bloody and graphic details.

Moderate/Severe for neurodivergent viewers.

Wrath and Kimblee are appallingly violent villains.

After her arm is cut off, a girl undergoes painful treatment to prevent infection.

Raven is stabbed painfully in the arm and slashed in the chest before he falls into concrete.

Mustang's hands are impaled to the floor in one scene.

This series is way less dark than the original, (Fullmetal Alchemist) So if you want a fair mix of comedy and action; watch Brotherhood. If you want just the action and dark-ness; watch the original.

The scene where a man fights off a bear is pretty intense.

The series' action is generally spaced out, making the violence feel infrequent.
