:kisskiss:

EDIT: animenewsnetwork.com confirms the announcement! :D

It's good news and everything but now I wonder when FMP will get a new season.

Wonder if they are gonna broadcast the episodes in confusing order again...

Wait wait wait, 7/7/07 she's "Coming Back"? They can't mean a new season will start, no way they'd put it on before Lucky Star ended.... right?

Maybe a special episode? Who knows...

there really isn't enough information at this time. the second page was about the video game, so this is all the info there is. best to wait and see.

I have been looking forward to another season of Full Metal Panic forever. Unfortionatly it looks like their waiting until the last novel is released(Some time in September) before they animate the rest of the series.

Hopefully we get a new season soon.

Also if the new Haruhi is releasing on 7-7-2007 then wouldnt that be this coming saturday

Why would it matter? Haruhi and LS have nothing to do with each other.

They're both by KyoAni, right?

Yeah, but still why would it matter? :p

Because KyoAni has a tradition of never doing 2 series, let alone more, at the same time?

Well maybe they are changing that?

From what I've seen in video interviews, KyoAni is a smaller company and only works on one project at a time.

Seeing as how Full Metal Panic's Plot is reaching the end of its arc(The main plot) it makes sense to wait and get the full story and not animate half and then wait.

Let's hope, and if it turns out to be true, let's hope it's for the better. :)

These novels feels bit heavy and because Anime was so faithful, I haven't read much of it... And now I have less reason to read them... Sure maybe some day...

Actually, if they worked on two projects at once, wouldn't the quality of both decrease because, according to Jehuty77, they're a smaller company? They'd have to split their attention and effort between two projects, instead of putting 100% [I hope] into one project.

Oh dear... the internet is going to explode :heh:

7/7/07 is probably the date for a trailer of some sort or a more substantial announcement.

According to Moon Phase, Haruhi season 2 is slated for a Fall/Winter 2007 release, an unnamed light novel adaptation in Spring 2008, and then CLANNAD in Fall of 2008...

It would suck if CLANNAD is really pushed back that far though. :/
As for the "unnamed light novel", I can only hope... (オワクロ！オワクロ！オワクロ！)

Looks like Sushi-Y's faith on Cyan-san wasn't in vain. :cool:

edit: Just saw Sushy-Y's post above. I hope that un-named light novel turns out to be the very namable, Full Metal Panic. These are exciting times. :D
