This season was much better than the first one that I don't like very much! Loved it!!
I loved it how tough Sousuke was with the General! 'If you don't like it I leave!' :-D
I want a new season!!! Please!!! :-D And really would like him to choose Kaname.

Wow! Just WOW! This series blew me away, especially the last 3 episodes. ^_^

The Second Raid was sooooo much better than the first FMP! I really liked how the story was continuous instead of being told in arcs. And TSR was so much darker than the first FMP! that I couldn't believe my eyes! XD

I was a bit skeptical at first whether to give this a 10 or not, but the last 3 episodes won me over. 10/10 ^_^

Terribly cheesy and predictable ending... but it works for this series imo. Also, it would be nice to get another season or two to resolve the rest of the mysteries, but for now I'll read the light novels.

Thank god they didn't run with Emo-souke.
Even thought it was the last episode. God, I HATE when characters turn emo.

Good ending. I want more.

What really makes this anime great is the characters and interactions between Sousuke and Chidori, which is why Fumoffu will always be my favorite season.
Overall really enjoyable season that hot all the right beats and left us with a satisfying conclusion.
9/10

Chidori, WHY???? Why didn't you tell Souseke, dammit!
Anyways, I found the ending to be good but at the same time many things were unanswered. I'd really want for another anime season.
I'm also looking for the novels.
May someone tell me where I can find the novels?

Absolutely incredible. 10/10. And 5x better than the first season. It did slow down the last few episodes a little, but not enough to lower my rating. Of course I wanted a kiss or at least a confession, but I knew I wouldn't get one. The action and fights were much better, and the emotion made it a bit more serious of a series. I couldn't believe it was already over after every episode.

No kiss at the end, and I figure that girl on the roof is wraith, I mean i doubt they would confuse you like that, and with tessa's brother showing up and randomly not being a part to the end at all, obviously means there going to be more seasons :)

Man oh man, what an improvement over first season. The action was better, the characters way deeper, and the storyline better paced and more satisfying. Sousuke felt like a human being this time around, instead of an unflinching soldier slash warfreak. The comedy aspects were toned down quite a lot, but hey, I've yet to watch Fomoffu so I guess I'll have my fill.

I pray to God there'll be a sequel, since there is plenty of material to draw from. Has it been confirmed yet? I hope it has.

I liked FMP:TSR a lot, and it was better than the first season. I'm also hoping there will be another season, has there been any news regarding this yet? It's been so long now.

Maybe we should all go buy FMP DVDs to stimulate them a little :P

I need season 4 now. Just finished the novels. Its killing me. O and i did watch the OVA and it will still never change my mind. If you read the books. Sousuke's true feelings are for Kaname. She completes him. She is what he never had before, a chance for a life. Also. I understand peoples frustration with the series lacking romantic closure and the abundance of comedy in parts where maybe they aren't necessary. Personally i enjoy the comedy in this show. its one of the few anime's where i actually laughed out loud at the humor. Im not very upset with them ending the series as they did. because if they are following the novels then people who have read them know there is alot more material to be covered. They have the ability to make 2 more seasons if they wanted to. but who knows. anyways. if your missing the FMP story then read some of the novels. It will make you feel better. Especially the ending (Always, Stand By Me Part 2). Made my heart just melt. So epic its beyond words.

Yeah, this is how I feel too. The beautiful and nearly psychological feel this had was reduced to something more cheesy and feel-good. Oh well, I'll cheer for the middle while others cheer for the end!

OMFG if there is a sequel and Gauron is still live...because you know he was probably faking that death, and very well might as survive that explosion.

The scene where the red venom played with the yuri girl was sad and funny, especially when he broke her arm. Damn I wanted them to survived.

Good series, I actually want to read the novel or manga. WIll add for sure.

Sagara's speech to Tessa and her reaction was so moe. Chidori is pretty cute too when she is unable to say what she wants haha going from angry to quiet/shy. I'm so conflicted on who to root for haha, sagara X ???...!

If that's the real wraith then FUCK YEAH! Hot kick ass girls FTW!

Dammit Kyo Ni, you better bring me the sequels to FMP and Haruhi Suzumiya!

Pretty much the ending I expected: open-ended, slightly lame and altogether happy but leaving me wanting more. I wasn't overly enamored by the deus ex machina when Sousuke killed Gates but the rest was fairly good even if Kaname didn't confess to Sousuke in the end. Overall better than the first season 8.5/10.

It was a good ending for a season that was on a completely different level than the previous series. Loved the character development, the action, the realistic military intelligence and action, not to mention the amazing animation in most episodes.

This last episode did feel a little rushed, especially the fighting scenes with the mechas (way too fast), but it still managed to entertain and pull off some sweet moves (like Sagara's final move ignoring the hostage). The final scenes with Sagara and Chidori were also sweet.

In the end this season ended with a very good note, and if Kyo-Ani ever does something else FMP related, I will be eagerly awaiting it!

Sousuke getting his hero up and then totally destroying the 5 supposedly incredibly powerful Venoms were a bit...odd considering the development that preceded it made it seem too fast of a change. Unlike most people, I didn't particularly mind the emo episodes. I've had enough of the teasing between Sousuke and Chidori. I wanted their reunion to be a little more dramatic then the usual tsundere business, but the after credits scene was sweet I suppose. Give me a proper hug scene already, damnit!

All these complaints aside, I still rather liked this season. Action-packed with good character development as well, even rushed as it is. 8/10

Sousuke got a thorough beatdown. Then made a grand entrance. And gave the bad guys a thorough beatdown.

The conversatio between Sousuke & Al afterwards was great.

pretty much it.
to sad they didn't decide to make a season 3, but we who see a potential in a series won't always get our will.(meh, we never do anyway)

unsatisfactory ending, yet I'll give it a 8/10 for the overall entertainment.

I don't think this really needs a sequel. The story is resolved, mostly. Chidori and Sosuke understand how they really feel about each-other. Sosuke resolved his underlying issues and is now going to live a full life. Tessa has accepted that he loves Chidori and wants to go ahead into the future as his friend. We understand Sosuke's past. I think this show did a damn good job of resolving all the major character arcs.

5/5. Great episode. Touching ending. This has become one of my favorite anime. Simply stellar.

If you read the manga you will know that FMP is not finished at all !
Can't understand why they don't adapt a 4 season it has so much potential, instead of a Zero No Tsukaima thing, well the budget wouldn't be the same indeed ...

10/10 Masterpiece level , no doubt about that .

Man. Oh how much this anime pissed me off. Both male/female lead drove me nuts. One was an overdependent bitch, the other one was a dense prick. UGH.

But at the end of the day, I can't help but laugh and enjoy their chemistry. Overall, it was good. Not sure if it was 'very good', but alas, I can't help but give it an 8.

Overdependent? Did you miss an episode? Remember how Chidori defended herself in that one episode and ended up sneaking up on an assassin?

let me start off by saying that this was a HUGE improvement over the first season.

The main characters received a good amount of development, especially Chidori and Sosuke who were very one dimensional in the first season. They pretty much sacrificed the comedy for drama which I feel was a wise decision as having a mix of everything didn't work well in the first season. The fights were better choreographed and definitely more enjoyable. The story, while still full of questions, was much better and depper than its predecessor. I suppose the remaining questions will be answered in the light novels (it doesn't look like we'll be getting a sequel as its been about 4 years).

I didn't think too much of the first season but I really enjoyed this one.

Umm, no. I don't think you paid very much attention if you think this wrapped everything up. Some examples include: Tessa's older brother (seems like an important character, but played a small role), everything about the Whispered (don't know much about their backstory or history), further development needed on side characters. In addition, Sosuke did NOT say he is leaving Mithril but will act on his own terms. Nowhere does it say he will live a full life, if anything, his future is still questionable

Also the relationship between Sosuke and Chidori has NOT been resolved. While they understand their feeling better, they have yet to tell each other meaning that it's still very much unresolved.

Have to agree with that totally. TSR left me wishing it were a 24 episode season. We still do not know what happened to Leonard (Tessa's brother) and who he was talking to at the end. We were not shown Wraith's face let alone her real identity and Amalgam's goals were still fairly vague.

There is no doubt plenty of content left for another season.

I haven't grind through a series in one day in a very long time. From beginning to end it was just amazing! Sure there wasn't a kiss, but I will let that slide because the ending was actually very well done, not gunna lie.

From the first season to Fumoffu, I always said they needed that little push to become an 8, and this season had that push.

That's one hell of a cliffhanger ending, clearly there is room for a sequel. Sure, it was cheesy and cliché but just had the right amount of charm to keep me hooked.

Really disappointed given that it's 2013 and still no sequel in sight. Here's hoping (more like praying) for a new season!
