Sloth
Sloth differs greatly in the anime and in the manga. In the manga, Sloth is not introduced until midway through the series, where he is revealed to be a large, muscular, dim-witted man who believes everything to be pointless and tiresome. Despite his lazy nature, he is very strong physically, and is the fastest of the homunculi. He is tasked with digging a gigantic transmutation circle beneath Amestris to be used in turning the country into a Philosopher's Stone. Though he is briefly impeded in this job when he runs into the Elric brothers at Briggs' Fortress, he is allowed to continue his work, finishing the circle in chapter seventy-eight. Afterwards, he begins serving as Father's bodyguard, and when Central is invaded by Mustang's and Olivier Armstrong's troops, he fights them off inside the Central Headquarters building. He is eventually killed through the combined efforts of the Armstrong siblings and Izumi and Sig Curtis. He is voiced by Fumihiko Tachiki.
In the first anime, Sloth was the product of Elric brothers' attempt to revive their mother, Trisha Elric, found by Dante and Envy while the horrified Elrics went to the Rockbell residence for help. Once able to assume her original form's likeness, Sloth was able to assume a watery composition, which she uses to drown others by grabbing hold of them. But, in spite of it, Sloth constantly suffers from memories of Trisha raising the Elric brothers. Determined to prove to herself that those are Trisha's memories and not her own, she longs to be able to kill the brothers, as a real mother could never kill her own sons. She develops a mother-son relationship with Wrath, and the two stick together during the second half of the anime. During a battle with the Elric brothers, Wrath, having merged with Trisha's remains earlier, merges with Sloth's body so that he will never have to be separated from her. This leaves Sloth paralyzed, allowing Edward Elric an easy opportunity to convert the water in her body into ethanol, which then evaporated into the atmosphere. Before disappearing, she tells the two Elrics to take care of each other. Yoshino Takamori is her seiyu, and Lydia Mackay her English voice actress.
