    LouHomey From my favorite movies..
    Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
    Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
    Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
    Sabre_Wolf I thought Full Metal Panic Fumoffu was actually quite good though a few friends disliked it but I liked it. Not as action orientated as the first series as this is more focused on school life, personal lives and comedy.Throughout the Full Metal Panic franchise I liked the relationship between Sousuke and Kaname but it didn't neglect at least too much Sousuke's buddies from MITHRIL.Also it adds new characters from Jindai High School where Sousuke and Kaname are students at and it expands more on the students and faculty at Jindai High School.Overall Full Metal Panic Fumoffu is a fun series despite its lack of action.
    Rectangular_businessman In my opinion, this is the best of all the "Full Metal Panic" animations. Unlike its predecessor, it focuses more in the comedy and the relationships of the main characters. And also, there aren't giant robots. But that isn't flaw. In fact, I liked this more than "Full Metal Panic!" and "Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid!", mostly because the hilarious situations depicted in each episode of this series.The jokes and the comedy style from this anime somewhat reminded Japanese animations like "Ranma 1/2" (Mostly because the funny relationship between the two main characters) combining perfectly well the absurdity and the gags with romance and some heartwarming moments.The animation is excellent, with great character designs, and a beautiful use of colors, which capture the light-hearted tone of the series. The opening song is pretty nice too."Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu" is a very entertaining anime with many virtues that deserve to be taken in consideration. It can be enjoyed for anyone, even for the viewers who didn't watch the previous series. To the present, this remains being my favorite installment of this franchise.
    Paco Eltaco The sequel to Full Metal Panic, this series takes a new approach to the story. This time there are no mechs, and the Mithil organization takes a step back. Though nothing is truly cut completely, many characters make guest appearances and generally cause general chaos. There are many new characters as well, several of which are never fully explained. This doesn't matter too much, as they are the main source of new situations for Kaname and Souske. I found that the series started off well, and got better and better as it went on. The first episode was probably the closest to the original Full Metal Panic style comedy. From there however, the stories get more and more outlandish. The series actively states that it's worried that fans of the original might not like how outlandish it becomes. However, with the soon to be released third sequel series, it shouldn't be a problem. My biggest question is, where can i get the chemical from the last episode?
    gooch2006 In Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu! the episodes are shorter and more comical with less action and suspense involved, though some opinions may vary about how good it is. I myself like the military aspect of the original plot. But if you seen the first Full Metal Panic? at the end it talks about insurance at the last episode and just ties into Fumoffu. Though its more about high school life with Sousuke being Sousuke and with Kaname keeping him in line, though there are action parts its not really as suspenseful as the first but there are newer weapons and greater laughs. In the first few episodes Teletha Testarossa appears for vacation and goes to school with them and later goes away with. With those facts in mind I hope you can come up with your own conclusion by yourself. My opinion on the matter is its a fair show that is comical and pleasing to any anime fan. The only smack about it is that its short shows are well to short. Its basically like any second season of any basic anime show. I do like the original and the TSR which in my opinion are a little bit better then Fumoffu.
