Editorial Review: Kaname's friend Kyoko sums up the third set of episodes of the action comedy Full Metal Panic Fumoffu when she observes, "This just keeps getting weirder." The principal of Jindai High threatens to disband the rugby club unless the players break their 49-year losing streak. Sousuke has to train them for their critical match--with the help of a book of rugby rules (which he doesn't quite grasp) and a volume of Marine-style cursing (which he grasps only too well). Jealousy rears its head during a visit from Captain Teletha "Tessa" Testarosa, Sousuke's Mithril commander in the previous season. Tessa brings military and fan service to Jindai High and the Okutama hot springs, but no one peeks at her or Kaname in the outdoor baths when Sousuke's on duty. Full Metal Fervor can't quite match the previous Full Metal Fracas for take-no-prisoners hilarity, but it's still very funny. (Rated TV PG V: comic violence, nudity, risqué humor, including real and fake profanity) --Charles Solomon
Whereas the first Full Metal Panic anime series was a sci-fi drama with flashes of comedy, Fumoffu doesn't even pretend to be serious! Loads of new characters and scenes from the best-selling manga make Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu! A must-have for any anime fan!

Rating: - FUNNY BEYOND EXPECTATION!!!
To begin with, it is definitely a very good show, something that I will explain later on.
Let us start with the outline of the story.
As the rest of the DVDs, this one has three stories going on:
1) In the first episode Sousuke and Kaname will be assigned to help the rugby team to get back to the winner's road. The problem: The rugby team will behave more like poets (just brought up as an example, I have nothing against them)rather than being an actual rugby team (well, ... Read More
Rating: - FUNNY!
I have to say out of the 4 volumes for FMPF Volume three is the funniest. I mean you have to watch it for yourself. The 1st episode starts off with Jindai High's Ruby team.....the team sucks so bad that the school was bout to ban it (How can you have a bunch of sensitive wimpy guys play on a ruby team anyway?) but Souske is tasked to beef up the squad to blood thirsty, cold hearted killers on the playing field.
Episode 8: Tessa takes a vacation to Jindai High to spend a lil quality time with ... Read More
Rating: - WHIP THESE WIMPS INTO SHAPE
Sousuke and Chidori have been given an assignment by the student body president that they are not particularly suited for. They have to whip the school's rugby team into shape because if they lose their next game, the program will be dismantled. The problem lies in the fact that all the players are a bunch of sissies whose idea of a work-out is to laze around and water plants! Things are not going well until Sousuke institutes a military style training regimen, including tons of cuss-words that have to be ... Read More
Rating: - Tessa Fans of all Nations, Unite!
The highlight of the 3rd volume of Full Metal Panic Fumoffu is the return of Captain Tessa for 2 episodes. It's really a shame that she only appears in 2 episodes in this series. Anyway, Tessa decides to use her vacation from the sub to attend Kaname's high school as an "exchange student". In her first episode she shows up at Souske's apartment and enrolls at school. In the second episode pretty much the whole cast goes to a Hot Springs, including Kurtz and Mao who also make an appearance. The Hot Springs ... Read More
Rating: - Advanced Review Once Again
Well, its that time again, time for my patented super advanced plot summary/review... so I guess let's get right into it shall we? And I'll try to keep it free of cheesy puns, etc :P
Once again, I'm taking a guess at it being 3 episodes (3 groups of openings/endings).. as then it fits nicely on 4 DVDs...
Plot Summary:
-------------
The Jindai High rugby club is in trouble! Yes, that's right, their school has a rugby club; only they are perhaps the worst rugby ... Read More
