FMA 2003 diverges from the manga partway through, while Brotherhood sticks closely to the manga from start to finish. It's like two alchemical recipes with different ingredients!

Honestly, just watch both. Each has its highs and lows, but they both enrich the Fullmetal Alchemist experience. Trust me, you won't regret it.
Brotherhood has better animation and a plot that's more aligned with the original manga. FMA 2003, though, has its own unique twists and turns.
The original Fullmetal Alchemist gives us a unique story, especially in the second half, but Brotherhood follows the manga very closely, offering a more faithful adaptation.
Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) vs. Brotherhood? The first is a great stand-alone story, the second is true to the manga. Easy peasy.
