Which fillers can you skip?
Fillers in FMA (2003) make up a huge part of the plot, so you cannot skip them at all, except for a select few. You must watch all the fillers in FMA (2003) for the story to make sense.
- A Forger’s Love (Episode 4)
- The Phantom Thief (Episode 10)
FMA Brotherhood, on the other hand, follows the manga religiously and hence, has unimportant fillers that can be skipped.
- Fullmetal Alchemist (Episode 1)
- Interlude Party (Episode 27)
