Sorry, but it’s just too difficult to put in words just how amazing this new Full Metal Panic! series is. Kyoto Animation (the production team responsible for FUMOFFU) is back with yet another stunning show filled with action, drama, and a skillful musical score to boot. This story continues from where the first Full Metal Panic! series leaves off, (hence the title “The Second Raid). Like many of its fans know, it is based of the FMP! novel “The End of Day by Day.”
What amazes me is that Mikuni Shimowaka returned to sing both the OP and ED once again! … Like always, she put out another excellent song that just graces the ear drums of any fan. This first episode delivers, and I mean delivers HARD! We see Sousuke and his fellow comrades right away thrust straight into battle with some real nail-biting moments. The only thing I found disappointing was the lack of screen time towards the other characters we know and love, (Chidori and Tessa). If you’ve already seen the first FMP! installment, do not miss this next one! This is definitely on my “must-watch” list!
Overall Rating: A+

w00t! i agree with everything you say..almost :) the series is truly AMAZING. i’d give it an A+ as well. it has everything an anime should-great music, animation, characters, plot. it also balances the ‘mecha’ action scenes nicely with other romance and plot development scenes-which many show really fail to do (ie: Gundam Seed Destiny..personally i love the show..but too much mecha fighting bores and confuses me :/) this show is perfect for both guys AND girls-all my guy and girlfriends love it! :) ep 9 is devoted basically completely to Chidori..and i love how even when she’s half nekkid..they dont show anything-very classy fanservice without seeming fan-servicey at all :)..the scenes of the twins in the earlier eps thou..*grins* yeah..that was all-out fan-service. but it was ok. and Tessa makes appearances in many of the eps-so i dont see how you said that they dont devote enough time to them :/? but oh well-that show rawks!
