Wow, FMP just went slightly loopy. Well more loopy than usual. I'm of course talking about the extreme violence on display in this episode, from a man getting shoved out of a copter for no apparent reason, to the lethal (and pointlessly lesbo) twins.

Unfortunately it looks like the generic villain of season 1 might be making a return in the future. Although at this point I'd rather put up with Gauron than the current balding loon.

Yeah! The DVD version really put the two naked twins.

And it really gets exciting now, but it's too much for FMP to handle so much violence. The teeth is grined with a gun? Ouch! It's too much! XD

But I like it now, I can't imagine what will happen next so I need to watch it right away.

WHAT THE FUCK, KAA TRANSLATED JAMMER AS RADAR? WHAT THE FUCK?

Anyways I laughed for the first time at FMP, it seems to better than the original series (which I didn't like at all). I kind of like the new villain, not much but he's funny at least, Gauron was just booooore GTFO. Also I'm digging the violence and the pale approach to death, much better than the naive original.

Also bland fan service is bland.

I must say that this episode was a bit graphic for FMP, what with the violence and totally pointless nudity..., but still there was plenty of classic Souske and Chidori scenes so it appears that this series will stick to its roots at least partially.

I find this better than the previous series. Sousuke is still a war-freak n00b, the new villain's more of a sadist than the previous one, there's more violence, and more ecchi scenes? Whoa at the lesbo twins ><

I must say, that was fucking awesome. On the first episode of his appearance, and I can already tell that Im gonna love Gates. He's so crazy and violent, I was laughing and crying while watching him. Also his whole squadron seemed potentially interesting, so I greatly look forward to the rest of the series.

Hmmm...the new baddy is so annoying but interesting because he seems completely insane. I lol'd when he shot the guy in the head for no apparent reason then wondered why there was so much death in the world.

As for the nakey sisters...no problems here ;)

Very interesting change of pace... Kyoto Animation...

Am I the only one who's more disturbed by the looney using a gun to scrape the girl's gums than the sisters being in love?

I mean dude! That's a freaking gun! It must be terrifying to have one brushing against your teeth, especially in the hand of that psychopath... I knew the girl won't die, but... I'd be terrified if I'm the girl... fucking psycho!

Boo.... I guess the big bad from season one is coming back... He ruined FMP season 1 for me with his constant dead and revival and putting Sousuke into a pinch and... yeah... Hopefully he won't do the same this season.

Looks like they are working for the bad guys but I absolutely hope they do not die. Those twins and that doctor are instant favorite characters.

Those twins are similar to Yomi from Ga Rei Zero.

That psycho makes this worth watching on it's own.
"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command.

If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."

Okay, there's so much to say about this episode...

First of all, the fan-service was INSANE, plain nudity and a lot of, some could say, incest and lesbian hints. I hate fan-service, but somehow it didn't feel forced here, although it was a little bit exaggerated,

Not only was this episode explicit in nudity, but also in brutal and violent scenes like I NEVER expected to see in FMP. The confrontation between the terrorists and that new totally insane character's group was amazing! Short and sweet. Also fantastic and gory animation. The new girls do look interesting characters. So does that crazy dude.

And I am SO FUCKING GLAD they kept some of Fumoffu humor! Even if the tone is supposed to be darker in this season I freaking love the job that Kyoto Animation did with the humor here.

Oh and I LOVE TO DEATH Kyouko's voice actor, I want to marry with her voice!

So far with 2 episodes, I can definitely say that this season is much superior in everything comparing to the first season.

So far this season seems better... but we're only 2 eps in so who knows. I'm enjoying the darker tone mixed with the school days elements. That's why this series is so popular, the characters, and they're all back and in good form.

The lesbo twins aspects was random &amp; stupid.. but whatever. I too watch the bluray.. and I was a little surprised there was so much nudity.

The additional violence + new insane villain are a step up... I have a feeling (Psh.. basically i know..) that Gauron will be back, that bland + stupid MF, but I'm enjoying that he's not around right now.

If you didn't like Gates with his pistol against her teeth, think that he could with a little more effort created a few gaps between her teeth.

Woah! That was some wacky shit!

Not quite the intense masterpiece the first episode was, but this was still pretty good. A LOT of fanservice, which is unusual. Not sure what to think of the twincest.

The action continues to be awesome this season. That confrontation between the two groups of bad guys was brutal.

Not glad to see that Gauron will probably be making a return, but this batshit insane villain was pretty cool. VERY unpredictable. Pushing that poor guy out of the helicopter was probably the funniest thing I've seen so far. Why would anyone work for that nut?

I was glad to see some Fumoffu-esque wackiness in the school setting. The mix of comedy and seriousness here was almost perfect.

Who was spying on Chidori? Maybe this Wraith guy who was mentioned briefly in the early part of the season. That poor girl apparently has to deal with a lot of voyeuristic attention this season.

A definite 4/5. I like where this season is going so far, hints of Gauron notwithstanding.

I guess they needed to bring new viewers up to speed on certain things, but the briefing scene was very boring. Their attempt to compensate by using canted angles and slight camera jittering was silly more than anything else. In fact, the last shot of the sequence before the lights came up and the briefing was over was almost upside-down. Was that a deliberate joke?

Quit being such a baby.
There was an on screen decapitation as well as a few arms sliced off.
And you're complaining about NONSEXUAL nudity, even if it is your opinion, be more open.

Anyways, great episode.

Not as action-y as the first episode but it's a mixture of fumoffu and the enemy's perspective.

They are in a football field and no one noticed the massacre? Even though the robots have camouflage, they still could have heard screams and gunshots...

Anyway, 4/5

We've got some pretty shallow folks in this discussion thread... why are we already assuming the lesbian relationship is pointless? If it were guyxgirl you'd assume there was a reason they were attracted to each other, right? Hopefully I won't have to eat my words, but regardless, let the girls do what they want :P

Anyway, liking the new season, liking the extra violence and Chidori and Sousuke are charming as always XD I'm expecting this season to be kind of like Black Lagoon S2, same characters and general style, but darker and a bit more serious. No complaints!

looks like we got a random butt shot.poor teacher and her laptop constally getting screwed lol. sousuke acting over protective again was pretty funny. We also got 2 hot female sis assasins who may be into incest i really dont know and dam that massacre was brutal. Looks like we may have a more entertaining villain. Though it seems the last one may be still alive. ugh he was rather boring and the fact they kept killing him just made him more boring.

Well uh...that was certainly something. Felt like the episode was on fast forward with how crazy everyone was acting. Trench coat guy's over the top insane, plus sisters who seem like....well very close. More nudity and about the same violence as the most violent episodes from the first season. Kaname and Sousuke were acting like Fry when he drank 100 cups of coffee too. XD

So far this has been a huge improvement over the first series, which I already liked to begin with. So I am really looking forward to see whether it can keep this quality!
