    Simply A Masterpiece

    Curapedi

    I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

    It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

    The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

    I thought Full Metal Panic Fumoffu was actually quite good though a few friends disliked it but I liked it. Not as action orientated as the first series as this is more focused on school life, personal lives and comedy.Throughout the Full Metal Panic franchise I liked the relationship between Sousuke and Kaname but it didn't neglect at least too much Sousuke's buddies from MITHRIL.Also it adds new characters from Jindai High School where Sousuke and Kaname are students at and it expands more on the students and faculty at Jindai High School.Overall Full Metal Panic Fumoffu is a fun series despite its lack of action.

    The sequel to Full Metal Panic, this series takes a new approach to the story. This time there are no mechs, and the Mithil organization takes a step back. Though nothing is truly cut completely, many characters make guest appearances and generally cause general chaos. There are many new characters as well, several of which are never fully explained. This doesn't matter too much, as they are the main source of new situations for Kaname and Souske. I found that the series started off well, and got better and better as it went on. The first episode was probably the closest to the original Full Metal Panic style comedy. From there however, the stories get more and more outlandish. The series actively states that it's worried that fans of the original might not like how outlandish it becomes. However, with the soon to be released third sequel series, it shouldn't be a problem. My biggest question is, where can i get the chemical from the last episode?

    After Full Metal Panic, one might ask, what is happening with Sagara and Kaname now? Well, this one explains it, well almost, albeit a comedic way, basically, this is more of a spin-off or side story and has nothing to do with the mechs or the action though some familiar characters such as Mao, Weber, Kalinin, Richard, and especially Tessa do make appearances in several episodes, and it mostly focuses on how Sagara does in living a normal teenage life, and still has the military mentality he always had, especially when challenged by the karate club, or thinking that the love letter he got was a bomb, and he still uses his weapons and gadgets he had during the first series! But mostly it's all comedy, no mech fights here, but maybe a little gun fighting, albeit non-lethal, but it is still promising, up to the last episode, you get a ton of laughs, recommended to it's fans, and be sure to watch The Second Raid, which continues the Full Metal Panic story. By the way, a few episodes weren't shown in syndication as the rest due to a kidnapping, the episode had a familiar scenario, so it was pulled off.

    In Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu! the episodes are shorter and more comical with less action and suspense involved, though some opinions may vary about how good it is. I myself like the military aspect of the original plot. But if you seen the first Full Metal Panic? at the end it talks about insurance at the last episode and just ties into Fumoffu. Though its more about high school life with Sousuke being Sousuke and with Kaname keeping him in line, though there are action parts its not really as suspenseful as the first but there are newer weapons and greater laughs. In the first few episodes Teletha Testarossa appears for vacation and goes to school with them and later goes away with. With those facts in mind I hope you can come up with your own conclusion by yourself. My opinion on the matter is its a fair show that is comical and pleasing to any anime fan. The only smack about it is that its short shows are well to short. Its basically like any second season of any basic anime show. I do like the original and the TSR which in my opinion are a little bit better then Fumoffu.
