Newsflash nostalgiafags: FMP sucks!


i thought TTGL sucked. Well.... it was humorous to see a galaxy used as a frisbee.... but other than .... its gets big meh.... sorry, I just saw you sig and remembered the confusion xX

FMP..... I only read it cause sosuke is a mans man in the books. Name another series that has a character like him in a simliar setting. I havent found one. Plus I see a bit of my self in his character.

Now back to reality. Yea, im bored. I wake up, eat, work, sleep, repeat. But really.... I need a new series, since I finished all the FMP novels already. ?_?

I agree with those above.... but I'd like Fumoffu AND the rest of the novels animated. By kyo, bones, madhouse or one of the others that have done outstanding work in hte past. I personally loved "sword of the stranger", so a combined kyo/bones would be amazing.

I've seen the first five episodes of the first season, and I didn't like it.

^_-

dont blame u, its very weak to begin with and even then the rest of the series was never truly amazing. just good, really. second raid on the other raid, i was blown away by the difference in quality. its great, rilliant even. i sincerly hope a new season is gonna happen

Quoting a troll, but for those who are uninformed...

First season was good, solid, not too special.
Second season is a hilarious comedy only season.
Third season is a brilliant drama, intellectual but straightforward and packed with action.

A possible 4th season would be deadly (to my heart, because I'd hnnnngh).


Because having a different opinion than you is trolling...

I loved FMP, especially fumoffu so I'm happy that they are doing a second comedy centric serie of it but if it is Gonzo then I am scared that this will revolve about stupid fanservice and cliche ecchi scene involving our 'don't care about sex hero'

I don't care about the novels or spin offs bullshit.

I need a new anime season by Kyoto Animation (not Gonzo plz)

Happy New Year.
Thank you very much old year.

It was a long standing state from the previous article by the example again,
Well still, we normally say Hiihii.
"Craft glass" three volumes (completely new!), Is released on January eighty-one.
Work still not finished. Sorry, sorry, I'm sorry ...

Well, it is expected this year
富士見書房 who's in, I think I will begin a new series.
The slapstick comedy and easy route.

I also plan to have a complete new series of mechanisms and Donpachi, which I was still ahead.

The full collection of short stories due out meth. I think I can get written down.
Apart from that, a bit of interesting projects are underway involving the full metadata.

Or else refrain from de-coupling of work unrelated to tell yet, or are around every once in a teaser is going to be a busy year.

The late Happy New Year. Kaya's east

Thank you I'd work means the teacher will read from now on.

I understand that work is not finished, Volume 3 cup Kraft, if you miss. or like some parts. In saying that, you can get to postpone the launch.

Because until you can look forward to the East's like Kaya.

As a fan I support you in the future.

Hey Happy New Year!

Might be a little insulting, as I was looking forward to this title better than the short,
I'm so happy new year greetings. ^ _ ^
Japan original edition, the Korean version, please buy out early from both.
No, really ....

This is exactly what ive been waiting to hear. cant wait.

Jan 4, 2011 12:38 AM by Hokuto_no_Fuzz

Nobdoy knows yet but let's hope it's a new season before 2012 happen.

Jan 3, 2011 4:53 PM by Ibreaker10032

So what, is this a new series of books, another season, or more OVA's?

Jan 3, 2011 1:17 PM by RogueAngelX

i'm pretty pissed that there isn't a direct sequel to the second raid

but whatever, this could be good for a watch (depending on if kaname doesn't completely pissed me off)

Jan 3, 2011 10:08 AM by Lordcrab86

Hoping theyll animate the next 2 books!Dancing Very Merry Christmas and Continuing On My Own are good!Tokyopop are releasing the ones that TSR were based on in English in Feb...and probably wont translate the rest for ageeeeeees!
Hopefully theyll treat DVMC as a bit of Fumoffu and then COMO as main plot in a 20+ episode season <3
Either way I need more Bunta-kun!And a healthy helping of Chidori beating the crap outta Sosuke...

Jan 3, 2011 9:34 AM by eparadigm

talk about good news

Jan 3, 2011 9:10 AM by Mr_Gutts

I hope they animate more FMP!

Fuck them haters!

Jan 3, 2011 7:55 AM by kathy025

Finally FMP! is back, hopefully this'll be better than the ending of The Second Raid.

Jan 3, 2011 6:14 AM by Masserati_

FMP....the only Anime that is surprisingly good in 2001.
