Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid

Post by **Emppu** » Mon May 02, 2005 4:44 am

While browsing the 'Net mindlessly I ran across promo of FMP:TSR. After that it took me 30 mins to clean all drool from my keyboard.

Tried to find info from Kyoto Animations webpage, but couldn't find any. So I'm asking here: Any info about the new season? Airing dates, anything?

I want FMA Fumoffu 2. I do not care much about FMA Second Raid, but I'll watch anything with Kaname in it

Fumoffu was tooo funny. I loved the episode with the Rugby team.

I still need to watch the first season though.

mao's book of straightening up the fags in that eps made me lol.

the one where they retrieve kaname's notes from sousuke apt is also hilarious

... I'm just the opposite

IMHO Fumoffu was fun but not that great. All the time I just waited for some action to begin

... It wasn't bad but I liked orginal idea better.

i liked em both. don't really care which one is better. But still i wanna see the second raid a lot. I just hope they don't fuck up the series. I mean follow ups don't necessarily reach the same lvl of enjoyment as the old one and that could go for both fumoffu and the second raid

i like the episode w/ the triad members in the fumoffu suits, that was funny

but the rugby was by far the best

FMP Second Raid, Episode 1 is out !.. For now there are two groups subbing it, and you can get the torrents at Animesuki.com

Post by **TheDarkness** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 1:19 pm

make that 3 groups now

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 8:20 pm

Yup, but which one is best?

[Edit]*Snicker* Muammar al-Gaddafi anyone?? [/Edit]

Edit2:
I've got to say animation is yummy, apart from the sub, which looks fuzzified after animating.
I don't remember whether the ASs had head chainguns in the first series, it seems a bit gundam-stolen, but well, I guess all mecha shows steal from each other. After Gundam the ASs look a bit dull.
It also seems a bit more gritty than the first series (I haven't seen Fumoffu, because I heard it was mostly comedy), but that may be just the opening episodes.

I must say I didn't think the first show was the best in the world, but after seeing the first ep of this I'm hungry for more.

Full Metal Panic was OK. It just didn't find the right balance between action and comedy but Fumoffu was great! Sousuke being his usual self, blowing shoe boxes, setting traps to bread boxes, hunting girls... absolutely hilarious

I'm definitely gonna download Second Raid too but I don't have high expectations for it

Post by **TheDarkness** » Fri Jul 22, 2005 5:39 pm

i have to.... er re-"acuire" the first one myself. But i think it was licensed somewhere so i hope i can find it

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Fri Jul 22, 2005 9:16 pm

Fumoffu? or the first series? You should still be able to get it from kickass anime (google for that, since they don't have a domain), or try box.

However, I must say in a way I hope that the second series (Second Raid) will look a bit ulgier in the future, because a pretty series like that is bound to be licensed sooner or later, and then it'll be so much trouble to get it.

as long as it isn't an ADV license boxtorrents will do just fine... They have tons of licensed shit... Problem is the subbing groups.

Post by **Eldo** » Sat Jul 23, 2005 3:24 am

Just wanted to say, episode two by bakakozou fansubs is out.

I downloading it right now, but I'm getting a shitty download rate, gah.

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Sat Jul 23, 2005 10:32 am

Thanks for the heads-up.

Post by **TheDarkness** » Sat Jul 23, 2005 11:24 am

lol a new group started out just to sub FMP 2nd raid.... And offcourse they named their selves: Mithril

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Sat Jul 23, 2005 11:47 am

Hmm, already in the second ep they have two naked girls and lots of blood. If it goes on like this it'll be hardcore horror porn with mecha by the end of the show.....

is that such a bad thing????
Well ok perhaps it is cause FMP is not meant to be horror porn.... but otherwise.

Post by **Eldo** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 4:24 am

Yes, murder porn.

Not a bad episode, Sousuke is back to causing mischief, I can see.

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 8:19 am

Well, we'll have to see whether the show can find a balance between its goofing off hero, its crazy villain, and sex and bodies left and right...

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Sun Jul 31, 2005 7:10 pm

Ep. 3 is out by bakakazou and anime-shrine, check Animesuki.com

We're really getting a lot of groups doing this show now.

Edit:
Hmm, they aren't wasting any time, either. Certainly no filler in this ep.

Also, I'm finding the gore level in this show a little more disturbing that usually in anime, since it's not the kind of exaggerated stuff you mostly find, more like a semi-realistic display of wounds and deaths.

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Sun Aug 07, 2005 12:48 am

4 is out by two groups, check animesuki.

Post by **Grahf** » Sun Aug 07, 2005 3:10 am
