The scenario that happened with Nina Tucker and her dog (Alexander) is one of the most horrific and heartbreaking scenes in anime. It still brings chills in many anime fans who watched the series, specifically that particular episode, which is still considered one of the darkest episodes ever. It is the seventh episode in the Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood series titled “Night of the Chimera’s Cry.”

Nina Tucker was the young daughter of famous Alchemist Shou Tucker (“Sewing-Life Alchemist), who was able to produce a chimera that could talk a bit like a human. Alexander was Nina’s pet dog. The series protagonists, the Elric brothers, visited Shou to talk more about alchemy and get any clue about the Philosopher’s Stone and alchemy so they might get their bodies back. They met with Nina and Alexander, who started liking them. Nina called Edward Elric Big Brother, and the dog also loved to be around him.
