** This was by necessity in ''Fullmetal Alchemist Mobile'', since Creator/KeijiFujiwara, Creator/KenjiUtsumi, Creator/IemasaKayumi and Creator/UnshoIshizuka have all sadly passed away. Hughes, Armstrong, Father and Hohenheim are voiced in this game by Creator/KenjiroTsuda, Jiro Saito, Creator/AkioOtsuka and Creator/KenyuuHoriuchi respectively, and this'll apply to Pinako as well since and Creator/MiyokoAso has also passed on.

* RelationshipVoiceActor:
** In Japanese most of the voice cast had recently worked on ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00''. In the dub... well, this is Creator/{{Funimation}} we're talking about (a lot of the original main cast is kept); but ''Manga/OuranHighSchoolHostClub'' and ''Manga/SoulEater'' come to mind.
** ''Brotherhood'' is not the only instance of ''Gundam'' and ''Fullmetal Alchemist'' sharing several voice actors, the original anime also featured several voice actors from ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED''. So it's probably a safe bet that if there is a FMA anime, then they will most likely follow after a Gundam series, and have several voice actors in both.



* TalkingToHimself: In the original Japanese version of ''Brotherhood'', Alphonse and the miniature panda Shao May are both voiced by Creator/RieKugimiya. This was averted in the dub.

* RoleReprise: A cross-country version of this trope: Jhonny Torres, the Venezuelan voice actor who voiced Alphonse in the anime dubbed in that country, reprises his role in the film, despite being dubbed in Mexico. This is because Torres moved to Mexico due to the social and economic crisis in his homeland (as of 2018).

* ActingForTwo: Creator/RomiPark and Creator/RieKugimiya, Edward and Alphonse's voice actresses in the Japanese version, voiced two of Major Armstrong's family members who are his mother and his younger sister Catherine for one episode in both anime series (episodes 37 and 45 respectfully). Kugimiya also voiced Xiao-Mei in Brotherhood as well. Averted in the English dub of both series, however, where the five are portrayed by different voice actors.
