Line 1:
{{trope}}
The cast of ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' have so many recorded [[Berserk ButtonsButton]]s that it practically requires separate folders for each one.
 
* '''Edward Elric'''
** Perhaps Ed's most famous Berserk Button is any mention of his [[The Napoleon|vertical deficiencies]]. He usually ends up exaggerating the insult to ridiculous extremes as well as whooping the ass of the offender.
Line 7 ⟶ 8:
** Threaten [[Big Brother Instinct|his little brother Al]] while Ed's around and you'll find yourself very, very, VERY soon regretting it.
** It's also not too much of a good idea to bring up memories of the human transmutation incident for laughs, although this was more of a [[Tranquil Fury]] in the first episode of ''Brotherhood''.
{{quote| '''Ed''': You know...there are some lines you really shouldn't cross.}}
** The closest Ed ever comes to killing someone is when he has {{spoiler|Shou Tucker}} up against a wall after Ed realizes he {{spoiler|used Alexander ''and'' Nina for his chimera experiment.}} He might have let him go if {{spoiler|Tucker}} hadn't decided to show us all what a bad idea it is to laugh at Ed's worst memory. He was on the road to getting pummeled to death with a steel fist before Al pulled his brother off.
* '''Winry Rockbell''':
Line 15 ⟶ 16:
** Much like Ed with Winry, it is a very bad idea to even imply that you might harm Riza Hawkeye. Your only chance of surviving such an implication is if he is heavily restrained.
** Don't imply that you're attracted to her, either. In the manga, Barry the Chopper declares that he's in love with Riza (because she shot at him instead of screaming in terror). Then he makes the mistake of putting his hand on her waist, clearly against her wishes, in front of Roy.
{{quote| '''Roy:''' ''[[Crazy Jealous Guy|*literally growling, eyes on fire*]]'' Stand aside, Lieutenant...there's going to be a ''fire'' tonight.}}
** Oh, and don't suggest that she really enjoys killing, like Kimbley did when they were all serving in Ishbal. Riza in a [[Corner of Woe]] makes for one really pissed-off Roy.
** Roy is generally a [[The Chessmaster|Chessmaster]] who [[Jerkass Facade|pretends that he is]] [[Obfuscating Stupidity|only concerned with pursuing career advancements and chasing girls shamelessly.]] But if you dare to harm his comrades, he'll give you hell for all he's worth. [[Playing Withwith Fire|Literally.]]
** Chapter 93 of the manga shows that mocking the death of Roy's close friend, {{spoiler|especially when you're the killer,}} is another excellent way to push it.
* '''Izumi Curtis'''
Line 28 ⟶ 29:
** In the first anime, mentioning {{spoiler|Hohenheim}} is a great way to have your face pounded in by Envy.
** Don't threaten or try to kill the first anime version of Sloth. Wrath will go fucking BERSERK on your ass.
** [[Badass Army|Not that they really need it]], but messing with the Briggs Bears will [[Mama Bear|earn you the immediate, violent wrath]] of [[Four -Star Badass|Olivier Milla Armstrong]].
** Gluttony is usually a [[Psychopathic Manchild]] who just doesn't ''get'' that eating people isn't very nice, but hurt [[Living Emotional Crutch|his beloved]] Lust and watch him completely flip out.
** Scar does not take well to anyone involved in the Ishbalan genocide. And "does not take well" means "will ''[[Your Head Asplode|dissolve your head]]'' via [[Face Palm of Doom]]."
Line 38 ⟶ 39:
** Lan Fan doesn't take kindly to people insulting Ling.
