Seems like two very different shows, right? But then, what seems like magic is science and what is science seems like magic. Except in the case of Alchemist science is magic, way of manipulating the world around them, while Dr. Stone also attempts to manipulate the world around him by bringing back science through a long and arduous process. It takes time to get the results they want at the end of the day, but both are stubborn enough to go for it as they're both that much into their fields.
Both feature their own take on science heavily. Dr. stone's science if more grounded in realism whereas FMA:B's alchemy is more exaggerated for it's fictional world. Both science's and the young genius main characters who use it, shape the world around them. Both are exhilarating series with great OST's, plots & characters.
Remarkably similar show in feel and in concept. Just science instead of alchemy.
-Both have a focus on creating and making things through science -Both have a similar style of slapstick comedy -Both shine some light on each and every character, so even the minor ones feel like they are part of the crew and not just add-ons
Science rules the world in these series. Also the main protagonists have amazing hair
There is something inspiring about full metal alchemist that's hard to explain. You want the characters to succeed and seeing the Elric brothers grow is what makes the show so endearing. Dr. Stone is a series that has that same feel and it's one of the few shows that's on par to FMA with characters and story. If you see FMA as your favourite of all time then Dr.Stone might be a close second. Hell, it might even take the top spot.
The charecters in both anime are unaware of the things that exist in thier worlds. They find them one by one so it makes the plot a bit similar and its the only things which keeps us focused after every episode.
The plot is based on chemistry, both are quite deep and entertaining shonens, in both there are action and emotional scenes
Both of these have a prodigy MC which really remind me of each other and use a science-fantasy focus and aesthetic. The stories are not similar but the vibes they give off are - although FMAB is darker, and generally considered better!
