Samara 213 Report post Posted July 26, 2008 I always like Full Metal Panic, Sergeant Sagara is funny at times and I feel sorry for him when Kaname beats the hell out of him. Half the time he deserves it, have the time he doesn't. Anyway, I like the show enough to go out and buy the box sets to season 1 and 3, and couldn't find 2, FMOFUU. It had a good storyline and some pretty good fight scenes. I never tire of the giant robot shows. Another show that looks promising, even though I have been so busy I missed the last four episodes is Code Gaess airing Saturday night on adult swim. Another giant robot series but with a entirely different, yet interesting and dark at points, storyline. I won't say much about it in case anyone is following it, though I'm sure if anyone is then they know more than me anyway. Anyway the giant robot shows have been favorites of mine since Mobile Suit Gundam. Anyone have any opinions or either show or think one is better than the other. Just wondering.

Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted July 26, 2008 I've never seen Code Gaess, but Full Metal Panic is a favorite of mine. We got the FMP TSR boxset at rightstuf a couple months ago when it went on sale. Excellent series. Kaname is so sexy. Poor Sousuke tho, hes always getting in trouble. BTW, the Rugby episode in FUMOFFU is the best ever. X'D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Myk JL 1,731 Report post Posted July 27, 2008 I saw some FMP... I couldn't get into it. I've grown to like Code Geass more than Gundam. Quote Those who fight deplorables should see to it that they themselves do not become deplorables. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gokuDX7 2,871 Report post Posted July 27, 2008 both are amazing however Code Geass and the second season have been nothing but pure win. It's like Death Note and Gundam combined. Quote All hail piggy, king of bacon ^)^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samara 213 Report post Posted July 28, 2008 That sounds plausible and fitting a combination of Deathnote and Gundam for the description. The rugbee episode in FMOFUU, that was completely awesome, leave it to Sousuke to follow a book written by Mao. Quote Don't expect too much. I change my mind a lot.

gokuDX7 2,871 Report post Posted July 28, 2008 If Lelouch is Light then C.C. is Ryuk?... Except Lelouch is good where as Light lost his way and went nuts haha. But ya, they both think and plan things out so perfectly. Quote All hail piggy, king of bacon ^)^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Moon Doggie 220 Report post Posted November 19, 2008 i have mix feelings towards Geass, like i like it but i dont all at the same time n.n i havent heard of full metal panic, i might go check it out now though.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted November 20, 2008 I just finished season one of Geass and I think FMP is much better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samara 213 Report post Posted November 21, 2008 I plan to base it on how Geass turns out in the end. FMP is really good though so Geass has some hard competition, especially since the novels are really good for FMP. Quote Don't expect too much. I change my mind a lot.

Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted November 21, 2008 The season 1 finale was a serious cliffhanger. I'll probably watch season 2 later this weekend to see if its as good as the first season. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted February 8, 2009 Just finished Code Geass season 2. That was good. Lelouch is such an evil bastard. The series lost me a bit when it came to the emperor and marianne trying to kill everyone from a pocket dimension and merge all consciousness into a single collective or something. That part reminded me of eva. But the last episode was good, it didn't make sense why Suzaku would have been working with Lelouch all along after the end of season 1, but when they showed their deal. Sweet. I feel bad for Karen tho, its a shame Lelouch never showed her the personal attention she was wanting from him, but at the same time it was the only way to keep her alive. Death Note in comparison is still better tho in terms of Lelouch's planning and manipulation with his power. There were too many times in which something Lelouch was doing could have backfired on him and gotten him killed, whereas Light would never leave openings like that. Still Code Geass was a good series. both are amazing however Code Geass and the second season have been nothing but pure win. It's like Death Note and Gundam combined. Thats exactly what its like!
