So to my surprise I didn't enjoy Full Metal Pani? Fumoffu as much as I'd hoped.  Somehow the initial season's foray into school life seemed so full of excitement and opportunity that I had tricked myself into believing that a whole season of such antics would be hillarious.  *sigh*Positives: If you're a fan of Full Metal Panic then you will be pleased to see that there's a bit more for you to enjoy that the first and second seasons.  This time it's all about life at school, but unfortunately there aren't a whole lot of great memories to fall back on with this season.Most of what you enjoyed in season one is still here, other than the best parts.  I suppose there are a few good laughs and you'll be wondering what in the world Fumoffu is forever until you finally find out what it means at which point you might roll your eyes if you're like me.  Anyhow, fun, but altogether nothing to write home about.Negatives: So more or less this is a jumbled mess of half episodes and a story that doesn't really go anywhere.To be honest, I'm having a horrible time remembering anything of merit that happened in this season, but compared to all the interesting things in second raid I just can't think of any reason to even watch this season unless you're a hardcore fan of the series.Sorry for the lackluster review.  I suppose it matches my feelings on this season though.

When seeing Full Metal Panic Fumoffu, you laugh your ass off. But most you need to watch the previous season of FMP to understand why Sagara Sousuke turning every situation to a military situation. FMP Fumoffu doesn't have a storyline, so I rated it to a 6/10. All of the previous season has a storyline in it. FMP Fumoffu sometimes have a romance time. This is why I didn't rate it lower. Talking about animation, it is quite good. If you watch this series/season/episodes in HD/HQ  you would sure see it. The sound blend with the scenes well. No doubt about it. It's easy to make the soundtrack, whats why I didn't rate it to a 10/10. All characters in this series are beautiful, but thats it. There won't come more characters, you have just to deal with these all you saw. This makes me rate an overall of a 9/10. I recommen all who loves action and humor this serie. Surely this has romance in it. But who wouldn't have romance in his/her favourite anime? If it makes a third season, I would surely watch it.

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu is a spin off of the original FMP series. The whole series this time around takes place mostly in the school, so you get to see how Sasuke deals with school life which can create some very funny moments. I thought the series was very enjoyable and was by far the funniest anime show I've watched. The downside of this series is that it contains much less action and follows no real storyline. The comedy makes up for it big time though. This is the kind of series that even if you didn't see the past one you would still enjoy it, since the episodes don't really reflect on that and are more based on the comedy aspect. The number of episodes is good also, so you won't get bored of watching too many.Characters: 8 /10I thought the characters were descent especially Sasuke. I loved his whole serious look all the time and I really enjoyed his miliatary and combat outfits. The other characters were pretty good too. Overall: 8.5/10Overall it was a very decent show. What it lacked in action and a good plot it made up for in the hilarious comedy. I thought the show was a bit goofy at times, but it was still a very funny show. If they added a little more action and had a real plot it may have been better, but I think overall it was good.
