Just to note, FUNimation added more goodies to that website I posted! There are also a few dub clips as well.

Hmm...I never watched the dubs...

Anyway, hoping FMP TSR will be more popular that Fumoffu...but I doubt it. Fumoffu's zaniness is liked more than TSR's actual advance of the plot...

Yeah. I am happy that they kept the same english voices for the Full Metal Panic:The Second Raid series, because it would be been bad without the same voices. I knew already from the bat when I watched the first episode that they were the same voices, to me it didnt sound like they sounded different. I am just happy that they are the same voices.

I just got the volume 1 today...hehehe.

has anyone been reading Overload?

Yeah, I have all 5 volumes of Overload, suuuuuuuuper cute.

It's because of Overload that I bought the regular series, and the reason why I started reading the translated novels. Ended up reading End of Day By Day to see the difference between TSR and the original, and then moving through the rest.

I recommend reading EODBD to everyone that saw TSR. It mentally probes the thoughts of Sousuke and Kaname, something that really couldn't have been done in the TV series. And A Dancing Very Merry Christmas was an awesome follow up to TSR, but wish Leonard was in this one more too.

Bah, I wish I knew Japanese so I could read "Full Metal Panic: Burning One Man Force". Though the whole story arc has been very depressing...damnit...I need more...

in what volume of the manga did the sisters appear in? for that matter, which volume of Gatou-sensei's original work?

and episode 2...

The novel was "End of Day by Day"...but they weren't sisters. They were brothers.

The manga is "Full Metal Panic Sigma" but the sisters are totally different.

Hm... I just recently watched the TSR OVA again recently. I've seen it before, but it's the first time I've watched it after reading FMP: A Dancing Very Merry Christmas.

After watching it after reading the novel, I think the OVA actually has a lot of relevancy in setting up some minor things in the next FMP story that they'll eventually write. If my memory serves me right, there will be references borsh (not sure if this one will actually be hinted at, but was in the novel), future comments that Closeau makes about Weber (the OVA portrayed more interaction between these two), and....

Minor OVA spoiler wrote:Tessa admiting her feelings towards Sousuke... which Sousuke finally gives a straight response to her inquiry about who he really likes in ADVMC.

BTW, if anyone really cares about my opinion, I think ADVMC would make a better movie than another 13 episode series.

Actually I think it'd might be better to have it worked into a series with the next FMP novel...Continuing On My Own...but Continuing On My Own was a lot more violent than ADVMC...so maybe ADVMC should be an multipart OVA and have COMO and Burning One Man Force be made into a 26 episode series...

Though the FMP TSR OVA doesn't really fit in at all...it seems to have general Sousuke misinterpretation...and Mao rubbing Tessa...
