| I honestly thought I was watching a different anime when this episode started. :O New setting and characters introduced completely confused me a bit. Took long enough before Sagara reappeared. Anyway, I like the new girl, Nami. But I wonder if she will be a character only for this arc or not? Looking forward to see what happened to the other character (Tessa, Chidori, etc.) hopefully in the next episode or so. |

| Lemon slept with an underage? Where is the FBI? XD |
| I am watching the right episode? Sousuke just gone from school and now he is somewhere really far already.... This feel like a spin-off from out of nowhere. |
| Into the Internet! |
| SOHSKY SEAGULL, LMAOOOOO. New girl is interesting. Wonder what Sousuke is looking for, maybe he got some leads plus he needs the money to repair his broken Arbalest so might as well kill two birds with one stone. |
My personal favorite character from this arc. I hope it ends up differently from the source though. Speaking of which...if anybody doesn't want to have the anime be spoiled for them, DO NOT watch or play the upcoming PS4 game "Full Metal Panic! Fight! Who Dares Win" to be released in May 31, 2018, until after you finish this anime...because it's basically this anime in game-form. |
| I've been somewhat lost as it is, watching this show, because it's been a really long time since I've watched the previous seasons... And I had even less of an idea what was going on at the start of this one, thinking it was possibly a flashback episode, or something. BUT, I wound up really digging it. It carried with it shades of Suisei no Gargantia and Black Lagoon, with the new characters and backdrop. All around, I have to say, I really liked it. |

| finally get to the best part |
| bruh |
| We're G Gundam now. But damn...those slaps really sounded like they hurt... |
 |
| Very strange to see story to turn like that + felt that it was rushed. And the mech animation ... ^ Also really reminded Black lagoon. |
 |
| w0w! surprisingly good episode! Sousuke easily beat that robot of Dao just with his raw piloting skills! Looks like there would be new group that Sousuke will be taking care of... real steel arc kinda? lolz 5/5. |

wolfichan said: TehRei said: This episode felt like it had nothing to do with the rest of the series. The mech fight was cool and all, but the episode overall was kind of a mess. Although a mess is preferable to a recap I guess. Exactly what i was thinking....i thought i hade skipped some episodes by accident. yeah I thought that too, so I stopped it and watched episode 4. then started to think maybe this is for some reason an past event before he joins Mithril and then I saw what I thought as Weber, so was convinced it was a past event until the last scene. PS don't get why the like of orange girl, maybe nostalgy ?? well I like Tessa 1st and Kaname 2nd. |

| The CGI looks pretty bad, but the story as a whole feels soooo much better than the previous seasons. There is no contest about it. |
| Yet these hands will never hold anything. Thus I pray, Unlimited Waifu Works!  |
| This season been great since the start. I m really really loving this. Xebec thank you! I m digging the new girl, and the episode felt refreshing, I though they would follow immediatly after Sousuke is getting out of school, but this sudden change of scenary also left me craving for more! |
 |
| Never mess with specialists, particularly with Sohsky Seagull. Sagara gets a brief moment of solace, albeit an intensive one. His new-found acquaintances are also intriguing, both of them are a lot more capable than they seem. Too bad that they are not aware of the fact that remaining close to Sagara brings misfortune, despite occasional ounces of comic relief. I am definitely looking forward to seeing how ongoing affairs will unfold. |

Something must be wrong with my eyes, why is everyone saying the CGI is bad? I mean, it's pretty detailed AND fluid. Honestly, it looks visually satisfying to me O_o. |
| Giant Killing was a good show, but what about that Mithril?? Do like the new setting. Nami's cute, and Seagull gets to be badass again. |

nerdokingoftrash said: The CGI looks pretty bad, but the story as a whole feels soooo much better than the previous seasons. There is no contest about it. I think it's inferior to The Second Raid in just about every way, which as far as I'm concerned is the gold standard for FMP. The new characters in this episode seem OK, if a bit cookie cutter. Nami reminds me a lot of Kiki Rosita from Gundam 08th MS Team. A bit of a troublemaker, but endearing. Still kinda felt like a filler episode after already having a non-episode last week. At least the mech physics seemed better this episode. They rightfully portrayed the old RK-92 like it was a clunker, but Sousuke was still able to compensate. I would've preferred the match had more of a struggle, like a piece of equipment malfunctioning on Sousuke's AS causing a handicap for him. It lacked any tension. |

| The first half.. it was a bit difficult to follow along.. I wasn't interested in following the story line of some characters I hadn't seen before.. But the moment sousuke showed up, I immediately started getting into it. And the ending was worth it xD I'm still not 100% into the new characters but I can't wait to see what role they will have on the story.. which I hope I'll get to see a lot of in the next episode! |
 |
| Now.. lets just hope that they don't do a 100% faithful adaptation... |
| 3 year time skip? Oh boy, poor Sousuke, probably got NTRd real hard already, Testarosas brother probably already impregnated Chidori multiple times |
| They didn't even care about the Rick guy. Talk about bad writing no matter how bad the dude was. |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| Really interesting episode if you ask me, really do wonder what happens next! |
 |
| Glasses guy looks like Webber. And Nami is cute! |
| AS wrestling, much better than that recap... Anyone else notice that Dao's AS has "Skynet" on its chest? "Sohsky Seagull" expert in arm slaves, knife disarmament and lockpicking |

| FMP! Sigma is one of my most favorite manga's and even though this episode didn't gave me exact same vibe as chapters from manga, maybe because I know how the story ends, and because characters are somewhat more cartoonish, anime is doing good work especially at combat and brutality of previous episodes. Nami is one of my favorite characters, I really loved her arc and pause from Kaname and all, Frenchman, I never liked him, quiet opposite but he is usefull character who proves his better later. Overall I am glad this anime doing good work and I am excited to watch it. |

| Well that would have been an easy 5k if he did pay up. Dao and Nami could just work together and do this all the time and make a lot more than just stealing a camera and a watch :D I like Nami, she's cool character. Lmfao at Sousuke's sleeping place :D |
 |
Noo u gave so many warning y did I have to click it :( |
 |
| Rip Rick, a character we never got to know I like how Sagara was like, oh he dead, I'm taking over |
 |
| ok the setting totally changes this time around hmm |
 |
| Nami is so sexy! hehe At this point Sousuke is a smurf in that arena. They can milk that place easily with Sousuke's skills. |
| Ok, this episode had the most bland dialogue I've witnessed on a anime for a long while, at least in a funny way Sagara: "I'm looking for Rick" Nami: "Rick... he was just killed, he was stabbed in the back" Sagara: "Damn, I always told Rick to watch his back" as part of a series that has become pretty serious in this season and being based on a LN, this can be a unforgivable. |
| Good intro to the new arc. Nami is cute and all, but I disagree with the introduction of another young girl into the mix. With how TSR went (The Wind Blows at Home) and how this series is going, I'm not predicting good things for her future. |
| "You can't decide the future, but I'm going to re-educate you in the past!" - Erna Kurtz |
| This is a hard mood change. So Sagara never made contact with the de Danaan again? Is Mithril done for? I figured they wouldnt keep up the fast paced action of the first 4 eps, but this seems out of place. Arbalest is really a type of crossbow. TIL. I thought it was just a name. Redhead, Nami.. where have I seen that before. Lmfao Sagara sleeping under the bed. 10/10 episode |
