Full metal panic Fumoffu!

Because of how full metal panic ended. Sousuke has no need of working as an arm slave pilot at the moment, and is having to work as Kaname Chidori's bodyguard, full time at her school. But since he doesn't have much experience outside of a battlefield, it's going to take lots of work From the whole crew to turn Sousuke into a normal student.

Full Metal Panic has always been one of my favorite anime's. making mecha/military experts young teenagers and having them moved into a normal, peaceful society. Sousuke, a military nut, was raised as an elite soldier For as long as he could remember.(much like troya Barten yes i love making comparisons to gundam wing lol.) and has never known peace. Since he grew up in far away places places such as Cambodia and Afghanistan he sees danger, battle tactics or enemy threat in almost everything he has ever done. On the other hand, Kaname is just a normal sweet, attractive high school girl until she's forced to deal with Sousuke's lack of common sense. Then, we get to see her whack him with a fan type thing. looks like it hurts though. and scolds him

Unlike Full metal panic. Fumoffu focuses mainly on the school life that Sousuke and Kaname lead, which was fun but not shown much in the regular full metal panic, Hence that it was the serious one. Each episode is a funny story involving something like Sousuke blowing up the school lockers because he thought a bomb was placed inside (actually it was a love letter), or a class trip to the beach, and this guy thinking Sousuke is a rapist. Fumoffu instead relies on the interaction between Kaname and Sousuke. If you've seen Full Metal Panic before, you'll know that the two characters fit each other *perfectly* Kaname does like Sousuke, but usually ends up acting like his mom, dragging him along to fix the damage that he causes. But in the end it all plays out well.

And since it's a school life we get to see a bit more of the other characters like Kyoko, Kaname's nosey pig-tailed friend , the guy-crazy Mizuki, who falls in love (HILARIOUS) the Awesome student body president and even Captain Tessa. which are some of the best eps, but the main focus is still on the main two. people who have not watched the regular full metal panic can still watch Fumoffu, other than having to understand the relationship between the characters and their background story, everything else is pretty much self focused.

In addition to that, there isnt't any mecha action except for one episode (Tessa vs Mao) Funno. So fans hoping for lots of AS battles might be dissapointed. Even though i wasn't i was still amazed. but there are still many explosions, gunshots and action scenes to satisfy you . Like they say "where there's smoke, there's fire...and explosions, shotgun shells, booby traps, and Sousuke standing right in the middle planting mines."

I dare any1 out there to watch this show and not like it. if you don't well ill make naga eat you.

rating: 10/10
