Not sure I like the change in art and the overuse of 'comedy' faces but this episode slowly had me laughing out loud by the end when Sousuke rolled off his list of stalkerish information XD

This was a pretty funny episode. I loved the second part more than the first part. Sousuke and the grey-haired teacher with the glasses are hilarious. About to watch the second episode now.

That's Sousuke's peaceful solutions. Imagine his non-peaceful. And the student president seems like he's got the same ideas as Sousuke.

am i dreaming or the opening scene with the headmaster and vice president was a reference to GTO?
i mean.. the vice president looked so much like Uchiyamada
sousuke shooting the arcade game ROFL

Yeah, I thought the same thing.

Sousuke: I implemented the most reliable way of disposing it.
President: And what means was that?
Sousuke: Destruction by use of explosives.
President: I see. It was indeed the most reliable way.
...
Kaname: What high school on earth has a student blowing up his shoe locker?!
President: There's one right here is there not?

Loled so hard at that part. The shooting behind the alley was damn funny too.

This.
And also the translation part. I guess I am starting to like the President.

I guess this side-story is better than the original story in comedy and animation, but I guess there is not mecha-fights here as the original :(

I don't remember the last time I watched an episode and laughed pretty much the whole way through. There was too many hilarious moments in this one, especially Sousuke literally shooting the arcade game. This series could soon be one of my faves!

This has to be one of the funniest anime I have ever seen! (hope the rest of the episodes are just as good as this one) :D

Oh and loving the new animation, looks a lot better! :D

Well, poor girl she got rejected in such weird way I guess...

Lol @ Arcade
Lol those bad guys, first they smiled when he dropped his weapons..
Then became so pale XD
Such a cool way to save a person, with a bit act and info about all your enemy..

Soo funny, interesting, it's a great old anime :D

So many moments in this episode where I burst out laughing. The translation scene, the reactions to Sousuke dropping all the weapons, his perseverance behind gymnasium ("is she the paranoid type?"), detonating the school locker etc.

Re-watching this atm, just after TSR! and the TSR! OVA. This is definitely the best order IMO.

I saved this one for last after watching FMP, FMP Second Raid, and the specials.

I am quite satisfied with my decision. Don't get me wrong, the original story was great, but I was in the mood to end it with all the comedy that kept me going from the first season.

Man, the OP was easily one of the best in my opinion. The vocals were very soothing, and I can hear the change of breath .

The series was so funny! So much like School rumble!!!

Love it when the scoundrel was actually speaking Japanese too....
.. and he shrunk to a cat when facing a gun.

The principal began like, "Listen, hentai..." LOL! Too funny...

Ok, I thought the original FMP was pretty mediocre. This first episode, however, has left a damn good first impression on me... I didn't really know what to expect, but some parts of this episode were hysterical! I think I'm really going to like this.
Men always seem to think about their past before they die, as though he were frantically searching for proof that he truly lived.

"who was that guy?"
"Hes an interesting guy. He bursted into the class room yelling 'i need your help!' and when the teacher got mad, he pulled a pistol and said ' its an emergency!'"

Yep I'm not impressed with FMP storyline, but this is comedy gold. Think I like the comedy and slice of life element of this series more than the main story one.

I haven't seen the original Full Metal Panic, but this seems rather interesting. It looks a little strange for a high school to tolerate gun-toting students. And the principal seemed pretty cool when one of his students talked about the hostage situation.

But this show is funny, and I like it. I lost it at "Morning. Don't blow stuff up." xD

And I must say I'm impressed by the main character.

I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine.

I see, so the episodes are split in two segments. So far anyway. Fairly humorous, a group of thugs are no match for Sousuke's military training. How sweet that their leader's weakness was her love for her little brother...ruthless Sousuke!

Holy shit, Sousuke is savage as fuck!
I really liked the first episode, they really stepped up their comedy game when compared to the first season. The "translation" scene was the funniest of course, but I also loved the love letter and the ending of the second half. This is gonna be hilarious!

This shit was more funny than any episode on S1, Second Raid had some funny scenes, but this is king!
I laughed the hardest when the girl was narrating her love for Sousoke, watching him from afar, planting that Claymore!!! LMAO (too good)

Just felt bad that he treated her like that in the end, poor girl.

Also, dude was going crazy in the end lol.
I may go for one episode per day for this series, as way to wait for S4, sounds really good to me~~

Nice, an entire season dedicated to the romantic comedy side of the anime. I guess they realized from the 1st season that its the most popular side of the anime.

Chidori looks better this season. hehe
