Geekatana Anime Review: Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid

Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid is the third season of the Full Metal panic series and is the second time that the  franchise is being handled by Kyoto Animation after getting the license for Gonzo. The series was originally released back in 2005 roughly two years after Full Metal Panic Fumoffu own release.

While the Full Metal Panic Fumoffu deals on the comedic aspect of the series, Full Metal Panic the Second Raid however dives into the far more serious aspect of the series which is the military and political side of things.

Geekatana Anime Review: Full Metal Panic Fumoffu

I originally hated Full Metal Panic Fumoffu when I first saw it being aired locally back in 2003. It just feels a lot different than what Full Metal Panic. It did warm up to me eventually as I watched more episodes. This was handled by Kyoto Animation (KyoAni) unlike the first season which was done by Gonzo.

Full Metal Panic Fumoffu is the sequel that followed the original series that was released in 2002. But unlike the original series Full Metal Panic Fumoffu focuses on the comedic aspect of the novel and a lot of the comedic aspect giving it a far different tone. It's meant to be a companion series from the original.
