anime: Full Metal Panic? FUMOFFU!

Feb 22, 2007 13:24

Yes, already watched the whole thing. After Perfect Girl Evolution, FMP is about the purest form of anime crack there is. This series focused on Sousuke and Kaname in school, which was the best part of the first series. Watching Sousuke attempt to be a normal teenager without a clue as to what one ois is worth almost any price. I really liked ( Read more... )

I hated tessa in FMP, so it was no surprise to find her like this in Fumoffu. Re: TSR? I want to kill her there. But that actually applies to most of the Mirthril people in TSR. My hate for them was directly proprotional to my Sousuke and Kaname love. TSR is my favorite of the three btw, which in dangermousie terms means a lot of angst. It's so incredibly good, and just...guuuuuh worthy.

The rugby ep is my favorite Fumoffu ep. Mr. Mousie and I just randomly rewatch it all the time.

I was on the fence about Tessa in FMP. Thought she had potential but that it was mostly wasted. Fumoffu dropkicked me off the fence. One of the main things that kept her on the fence was that she was relatively mature as far as the triangle goes, and she was like a 2 year old who wanted the toy in Fumoffu. Tessa is a case of the creative staff having a blinding crush on a character to the pont of making her very hatable. As far as Mithril goes...I like Kurtz and Mao, the rest can get blown up while they're on a mission and Sousuke's on a case and I wouldn't notice. Don't hate them, but...

The Rugby ep and the Yakuza ep were scary awesome.

Does the karate guy make it to TSR?

FMP is very very wonderful (it starts a bit slow but then really gets good). It's my third favorite anime series.

Btw, I started the ceres manga, and it's even better than the anime :)

FMP is very very wonderful

It was the bit that I found by Googling "he was sent to be her protection" that got me hooked at once. I loooove these things!!

I have never read any manga, and I must confess I never seen one in the bookshops. :(

Re: manga. That is so odd. We have some in even small or medium sized bookstores around here, and whole sections devoted to them in large chain stores like Borders or Barnes&Noble.

FMP is amazing. I adore Sousuke and Kaname and actually, they vie for my favorite anime otp spot, with Miaka and Tamahome from Fushigi Yuugi (which you totally have to watch). There is one scene in the rain with guns and white shirts especially...*sigh*

She is so non-wimpish and funny and cracky and he is so strong and figuring out how to be a human and just protective and huuuuh

My favorite still:
