Classified 'filler' under this project's manga-adaptation-based definition, though multiple fan guides caution these episodes are plot-critical to the 2003 anime's own story and not skippable padding, unlike the three pure standalone filler episodes (4, 10, 37).

epicdope.com's Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) filler guide — episode-by-episode classification into manga canon, anime-original/diverging story, or pure filler. (https://www.epicdope.com/fullmetal-alchemist-complete-filler-guide-for-beginners/) / QuoteTheAnime's combined Fullmetal Alchemist filler list (covers both the 2003 series and Brotherhood) — agreed with epicdope's guide on an identical episode-by-episode breakdown for the 2003 series. (https://quotetheanime.com/filler-list/fullmetal-alchemist/)
Anime-original content, not adapted from Hiromu Arakawa's manga — the manga was still ongoing when this 2003 anime aired, so from here the anime diverges into its own original continuation (a different central antagonist, Dante, and a different ending than the manga's). Classified 'filler' under this project's manga-adaptation-based definition, though multiple fan guides caution these episodes are plot-critical to the 2003 anime's own story and not skippable padding, unlike the three pure standalone filler episodes (4, 10, 37).
