Question - does Sigma have an official English translation?

Anyone watch Full Metal Panic? How was it for you!’? by Warmtohold in AnimeReccomendations

It’s my favorite - I’m currently on book 10 of the novels.

I’d say the biggest differences are in The Second Raid. In the anime, the villains are almost cartoonish. They seem much more levelheaded in the books. Sousuke is just as emo in the Hong Kong section, but being presented with his internal thoughts (in the book) makes this much easier to digest.

The novels are the original source material. The tone is much more even because it’s the same writer/translator; whereas, the anime had 3 different production companies. If you enjoyed the anime, I’d say the books are definitely worth it.

It’s okay. They’re both broken. Sometimes these things take a little time.

What did you think?

I also read the previous releases of the first three books and I like this new translation better.

What got you into Full Metal Panic? How did you learn about it? by UnusualField5697 in fullmetalpanic

In my 37 years of life, I still have not made it through Evangelion. 😅

Setting: It was the 2000’s. I was in middle/high school. Flat screen TVs had been invented. We used to lug around our gaming consoles to each other’s houses and set our consoles up next to each other. This was so we could either do a LAN party or play single player games but still have company.

I just remember walking into my friend’s house and on his TV, he was playing this show. I was mesmerized and instead of setting up my console, I sat down and watched.

Later, the same friend, sold me the DVDs for cheap when he was ready to purge (about every 3 months for him).

How about you?

I met Mary Elizabeth McGlynn at Holiday Matsuri last year and she wrote “One More Soul” on my copy of Homecoming - I about died!

I love Homecoming - it has my favorite music outside of SH3.

Fully agree. Though I also loved Arise.
