Fullmetal Alchemist's current activity is merchandise and localization, not new animation. A Seiko collaboration watch is on order, Crunchyroll India is rolling out Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu dubs of Brotherhood, and Square Enix has a dot art goods line coming to Tokyo Game Show 2026.
Three stories from 2026 cover Fullmetal Alchemist, and none of them concern a new anime production. What they establish is the series being licensed, dubbed, and merchandised: a Seiko watch modeled on Edward Elric, regional-language dubs of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood for Crunchyroll India, and a dot art goods line from Square Enix. The only animated work referenced is Brotherhood itself, which the dub story says was produced by Bones, directed by Yasuhiro Irie, and originally aired from April 2009 to July 2010.
The Seiko collaboration, announced in June, is a watch with a black dial, a red alchemy circle, screw-inspired indices, and the Amestris military emblem on the sub-dial. The case back is engraved with the pocket watch phrase "Don't forget 3. OCT. 11." It is priced at 65,780 yen and available for order on AMNIBUS. A month later, Crunchyroll announced that Brotherhood would begin streaming in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu on Crunchyroll India starting July 27, 2026, released in batches every three weeks through October 2026. The casts include Anubhav Rawat as Edward in Hindi, Roshan N as Edward in Tamil, and Sai Abhijith S as Edward in Telugu, with Hitanshi Jha as Alphonse in Hindi and Nikkilesh P as Alphonse in both Tamil and Telugu.
The most recent story shifts to merchandise. Square Enix's dot art goods feature art by Kazuko Shibuya, credited in the story as the creator of dot characters for games including the Final Fantasy series. The items go on sale October 1 at TSUTAYA IP bookstores and October 14 at the Fullmetal Alchemist x Yomi no Tsugai Exhibition Hokkaido venue, with early release at Tokyo Game Show 2026.
