Full Metal Anime topic
« on: 20 July 2017, 10:37:13 »
I remembered talk about new season of Full Metal Panic! So I checked out Anime News Network, and sure enough, it is now promised for the next spring. What are our feelings about this? I'm like: HELL YEAH! {>{>

You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights errant, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

If it ends up at least as good as Season 1 and Second Raid, I would love to have the story finished.

I really wasn't a fan of Full Metal Panic as I recall, but I've only watched the first season, so I'm looking forward to giving it a second chance! 
At Comstar we listen. It's that simple.

FMP: The Second Raid is somewhat more serious, while FMP: Fufumu is the insane parts of FMP kicked up to twelve.....

FMP: Fufumu
Wrong! It is:
Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu

[edit]
Despite of all the comedy and shenanigans, FMP!! Second Raid (with 2 exclamation marks) has a reference to Fumoffu: in Second Raid is a scene where Testarossa looks at framed photograph taken in onsen episode of Fumoffu.

Well, next year the new FMP will be out.  Hopefully no further delays.

Third episode for Magic and Knights came out, it was pretty good. Though it was world building thing.  I'm really worried how quick this is going. It's glossing over some of the funny parts. (Sigh) I hope it helps manga / light novels out and keep them going. 

Darn those tight budgets!!

Tell me about it. If Konosuba had 12 episode anime seasons instead of 10 each, there wouldn't have been a need to make cuts to the story (introduction of Wiz, Kazuma in another adventurer group killing goblins).
