Gday Guys
I just finished watching the whole series of Full Metal Panic, and can't say i was dissapointed! I'm very new to the scene, having seen only Gundam Wing, Ghost in the Shell SAC, AppleSeed and now this, but i still reckon that this one is incredible! Despite the aforementioned shortcomings.

One point I have to agree on the the scene with Sousake and the hooker in Hong Kong. She looked incredibly like Kaname. A possible representation of her in Sousake mind? Or maybe just a coincidence.

(My apologies if it wasn't in hong kong )

Coincidence or the screwed-up mind of the scriptwriter. She's there for the same reason there are 2 naked assassins, and a near naked high-school girl by name of Chidori.

I really enjoyed TSR and while I'll agree that some of the coincidences were a bit contrived I really enjoyed the development of the characters and the action and plot progression. I hope there is a new season but what I really hope is that if there is it doesn't hit the reset button on the relationship in the first episode as so many animes seem to do.

A lot of the criticism here has been focused on the villains and while I'll agree completely with much of what has been said I would point out that TSR has never had particularly well developed villains. It's not what we watch it for and since they move the plot along I think they were fine; no worse or better then the Gauron or the fake sister/brother thing with 'some nice guy tried to teach us wholesome values so now let's kill everything...' of the 1st season or well, the complete lack of a villain in FMF.

The Series' strengths have always been an interesting premise combined with well rounded main characters and an engaging story line with an excellent set of good guy side characters thrown in for fun. All the good stuff is still there and even if it combined a bit needless nudity the action kept me on the edge of my seat through out. Actually its almost a plus that the villains weren't all that compelling because then we would have felt bad when they got killed off. All in all I'm really looking forward to seeing more.

This thread is so old. The last post was almost 2 years ago. Normally I'd prefer if you simply started a new one. But I'll let this slide.
