Full Metal Panic - FUMOFFU - Collection [2003]

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Full Metal Panic

May 26, 2008
Following the events of the first Full Metal Panic series, this outing sees our main charcters return for a slightly unorthodox sequel. Instead of sticking to the same action packed style of the previous series, Fumoffu takes a less serious and more comedic tone throughout, making it seem more like a parody of a high school romance than a hard hitting mecha action anime. Hardcore fans may be put off by this, but I assure you that this series is absolutley hilarious and is just as enjoyable as its' predecessor. You just need to try and not take it too seriously.

This series is about the misadventures of war veteran Sousuke Sagara as he goes about protecting Kaname Chidori as she goes about her school life. Sagara attempts to fit ... Read More:

I actually bought this by accident after searching for Full Metal Alchemist, but this is great anyway!

You can find plot synopses anywhere, so I'm just going to say that the animation and music is great, as is the story. It alternates between upbeat, comedy episodes with Sagura (the militarian hero of the series) trying unsuccessfully to fit with people from school, and action episodes which see him fighting against terrorists. It's balanced pretty well so that the story flows along smoothly, although I felt it dragged occasionally during some of the combat scenes.

The protagonists are likeable and develop well throughout the series, and the villains suitably evil (seriously, Gauron is a complete freak). I watched it ... Read More:

After finishing watching The Second Raid (TSR) around 20 minutes ago, I was left with a feeling of fulfilment anime rarely ever gives me these days. As an action series it's hard to fault: The action was enjoyable to watch, helped by the high production values, and it had a strong cast of characters that painted over the story simplicity. It did everything it needed to do right and ticked all my boxes, meeting my overly critical standards.

This wasn't the case with the original FMP series, though. Back when I watched that I was left a bit underwhelmed by an experience I'd expected to be a lot more enjoyable than it turned out to be. The constant switching between school comedy episodes and anti-terrorism/mecha action stories let it down, ... Read More:

I have been buying anime for a while now and have become alarmed at the amount of material not reviewed by customers, So I have decided to post a few of my own starting with this series (one of my personal faves).
The plot involves a young mercenary and mobile suit pilot named sousouke sagara who is assigned to protect kaname Chidori a young high-school student who has been targeted by a sinister terrorist named Gauron (an awsome anime villain with more lives than a cat!)She has been targeted due to her special abiltites as a 'whispered' a special kind of psychic who's mind is a treasure trove of advanced technical information way beyond current technology.
The series mixes intense mobile suit warfare and combat and high school humour perfectly, ... Read More:
