Godzilla Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Ok, I was at the EmeraldCity ComiCon in Seattle, I saw something from this Japan Hobby Store. They had all these DVDs that were region free but they were from Japan. Made me suspicious so I asked. They said theya re not. They even had the DRYL one that I have with English subtitles. Anyways, I saw FMP and I thought it was the original but after looking at the scenes in the back, I don't remember seeing those scenes. So I am guessing a 2nd series? Anybody confirm/deny this?

treatment Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Yup. It's called Fumoffu. It's way better than the first tv-series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDisco Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 also labelled as "fmp?" i thought it was a great comedic series set in the fmp! universe. interestingly i think the manga overlaps both fmp! and fmp? storylines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Effect Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Yup. It's called Fumoffu. It's way better than the first tv-series. Arguable. I personally thought the first season was a lot better. Fumoffu is really over the top so much that at times it isn't even funny but annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fumoffu is really over the top so much that at times it isn't even funny but annoying. Exactly. It's very hit and miss - it can be hilarious, but it can also be extremely unfunny.

Anubis Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 I loved FMP: Fumoffu. A couple were hit or miss, but overall very enjoyable. No mecha combat this time, it's all high school, having fun with the characters. The only mecha is the Bonta-kun mascot suit Sousuke modifies into exo-armor and then attempt to market. Some of the stories were pulled straight from the manga this time, or at least drew inspiration from them in a couple as well. Great stuff. I'm hoping for a season 3 now.

treatment Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 (edited) Fumoffu. Tessa vs Kaname. With Sagara caught in between. Priceless. Nuff said. Well, Tessa's more than enough. Tessa's and Sagara's respective "behaviour" when Tessa was around were just priceless. Better acting than when he's with Kaname. I want more Fumoffu and more Tessa! oh, yeah, btw. The music/songs on Fomuffu was also better. Edited March 1, 2004 by treatment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, I dunno if I want to get it. I will have to see. I like to see Mecha combat as well. I mean that is what drew me into FMP. Just call me Shinji (FMP, not Evanglion ) What really was great was some comedy and some action mixed in. 3rd season? I hope it will contact mecha combat.

Effect Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 There is almost no mecha combat in Fumoffu. Like said its all high school scenes and comedy(over the top most of the time). This is why I enjoy the first season so much more. It had a great mix of mech action, drama, and comedy. Fumoffu doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fumoffu is one of those shows that needed some understaning of the Japanese culture to fully understand the funny parts/jokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The music/songs on Fomuffu was also better. That's the thing, the Tessa episodes were great, much better than all the others.. but it was only about three episodes out of twelve. All the comedy that revolved around the characters interactions were great, but many the more wacky things (zombie janitors?) were flat out stupid.
