Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory - Black Aeronaut - 04-14-2018

It is now airing on Crunchyroll.com.

All I will say about it is that Amalgam is now taking off the kid gloves.

..... Soooooo nobody is interested in Full Metal Panic anymore?


RE: Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory - Labster - 04-15-2018

Well, I only liked Fumoffu. That, and my tendency to watch anime years behind when it actually airs -- I'm still working my way through Goldfish Warning and Galaxy Express 999.

And I just watched Rose of Versailles (making a small dent in my "to be watched" pile).

I'm interested in FMP, but by the time I have time to watch it, it'll be out on BluRay.

I'll order it as soon as it comes out on Amazon, love FMP can't wait to see this one.

*Shruggs*

Well, being fully up to date on FMP's anime releases, it was only natural for me when I saw the words "Full Metal Panic!" in Crunchyroll's recent releases to go HOLY SHIT!!! and jump straight in. And I was not disappointed. The plot kicks down the doors in an almighty hurry, and by the end of Episode 1 we are already off to the races.

Honestly, I'm glad that I've started paying more attention to Crunchyroll now, because it seems that this spring season is loaded with barnburners.

EDIT: No, I mean it. The only thing that could make this season any better is if we had Season 3 of Log Horizon and/or Season 2 of Problem Children are Coming From Another World, Aren't They? And as it is, Adult Swim already surprised us with their typical April Fool's Day shenanigans by giving us FLCL Alternative Episode 1 early. FLCL Progressive will be coming in June, and with the rest of Alternative hot on its heals.

hold it, they ca,e put with a second FLCL


RE: Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory - ECSNorway - 04-16-2018

I watched episode 1 of this and liked it.

I got into FMP by the back door, via crossover fanfictions -- most especially "Mithril Female Ops Handbook" and "Divine Blood" -- and enjoyed the more action-y side of it much more than the "fish out of water" high-school comedy bits.

This is exactly the FMP I needed.

Free tip: If you haven't yet seen Fumoffu, ignore it. It's nothing but "fish out of water" high-school comedy bits.

Huh, I only saw a rumour of it being in production not that it was released. (also forum login fun - firefox hates here & won't let me log on) Great, now I've got to track it down & it's on Crunchyroll? Yet another digital media source....perhaps I'll wait for physical as some of those streaming services only work on some of my devices & the video divide's bad enough for me now with me having stuff in Itunes & Steam.

A second AND A THIRD.  They're making two short seasons, titled Progressive and Alternative.  And they're gonna be airing here in the USA first because while it's being produced in Japan, it's being bankrolled by Adult Swim.  Also, this means the writing staff is going to be working hand-in-hand with the translation and localization staff, so the accuracy of the translation is gonna be incontrovertible.

Thing is a lot of the original production staff for FLCL actually REALLY REALLY WANTED THIS.  They had good memories of doing Immortal Grand Prix with Cartoon Network/Adult Swim.  But they couldn't move forwards with it because Gainax, who was the other owner to the IP rights for FLCL, were being sticks in the mud, cause, you know.  Filthy gaijin and all.

But now that they sold their share to Production IG, everything has been greenlit, and just about all the production staff is back onboard for FLCL seasons 2 and 3.

This is about where I have Leonidas from 300 screaming "SPARTAAAAAAANS!  PREPARE FOR GLORY!" sounding off in my head.


RE: Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory - Rajvik - 04-18-2018

Agreed, glory cometh to us all


RE: Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory - Black Aeronaut - 04-21-2018

Okay, so episode 2 of Invisible Victory is up on Crunchyroll for subscribers...




RE: Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory - Black Aeronaut - 05-09-2018

We're up to three episodes now, four for CR subscribers, and things continue to go pear shaped.

That's a good description of it, yes.

Let's see...

Did I miss anything?


RE: Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory - Black Aeronaut - 05-11-2018

I think you got it right, though I'm not sure about one or two details.

... Oh WHAT THE HELL? A recap episode!? ALREADY!?
