Full Metal Panic Novel Discussion

[Otakon]

what about basilisk i liked it but hated the ending, a horrible ending. really sad. same with devilman, akira from devilman has to be the most tragic character ever in anime.

BOMF is being translated and CMMD is in the works (hopefully)

What worries me about the ending is that it turns into a really tragic one where like you said you get a 'Romeo & Juliet' ending but i just cant see FMP ending that way. However because death plays a big part of the series someone will most likely die but thats usually the main bad guy at the very end like Gauron in season 1 and Gates in season 3. But i Just cant see Kaname dieing or Souske

[krysinello]

Actually Gauron didn't die in season 1 :P, and the Novels follow a different structure. The good thing so far that Nami is the only one of the main characters(other then baddies) who have died, and there was a reason for that, as said, Sousuke needed a reason to leave Namsak, and couldn't have another girl interfere basically, though she didn't pay too much importance in the overall story arc. I personally feel that it will have a very gundam ending, as the series is turning out like(kinda), which could mean a happier then what would normally happen ending.

<- Go there for BOMF it's been translated up to ch02b. CMMD hadn't been translated.

^^Gundam series don't always have good ending.
I propose, someone important on the good side will die.

We will all probably shed manly tears when/if Kalinin dies.

well, from the "somebody important must die" factor I would bet my 2 cents in Kaname, it would be way more dramatic than Sousuke's death, specially if he watchs it...

And Kalinin... poor thing, he is so already dead... I think he will probably die...

[krysinello]

You never know, he could just be excellent at playing the double agent role, come back to mithril with Kaname, then send Sousuke out for an epic battle which lasts the rest of the book, ending amalgam once and for all and Kaname and Sousuke live happily ever after, well to at least one month later when him and Kalinin share a drink for old times sakes but Sousuke doesn't know, full liver needed for alcohol and dies :P No one would suspect that lol.

The wait for this ending is killing me, what kills me more is I wont be able to find out about it till summaries come, which will most likely be from the chinese version which will come out some time after the japanese one. Basically

Spoiler for some related stuff in MMD:

According to MMD04 from Tessa, the only way to effectively destroy Amalgam is to force Leonard to help them and act as virus inside the organization, destroying it from within. But with Leonard is heavily injured, I doubt if it'll still work, especially they're now getting him back to Amalgam. So basically speaking, an epic battle to end all stuff won't happen as, even Mr Gold comes out and killed, others can still take his place to command Amalgam.

As for the Kalinin thingy, I'd repeated for quite a few times so I won't again.

I was kinda being Sarcastic and describing a practically impossible out come , my judgements are reserved on Kalinin though.

Hun, you should really be putting some of that under a spoiler warning button.

[krysinello]

oh... yeah I should of sorry, I try mostly lol. I think I must of only going to talk about TSR but then got the idea about going into the deaths of the series.

Again, Sousuke and Kaname must live!!

[FrostWolf]

Yeah sorry i should have posted a spoiler warning to

But i would put i high likelyhood on Kalinin dieing perhaps as a very low possibility Maradukas?

[hobbes_fan]

There's no need, if you look at the title of the thread, it clearly indicates spoilers abound.

There better be more Kurz in any future series. He's not in a lot of scenes but he is guaranteed to make me lol. that car chase scene in TSR was quality.

Yeah, i was laughing so hard that I almost fainted, my face was read, the Gates scene after didn't help

I am really hoping some takes up MMD, Ravyn if your going to do it, can you say, or are you at least planning on doing it. I'd love to import and translate myself(my english sucks so it would be for myself only) but my Japanese aint good enough yet. And I am on Full Metal Panic withdrawals(as we all are).

Hey guys,

Haven't been on here for a bit.

Can you give me a link to where Ravyn's BOMF files are hosted. I'm trying tog et Chapter 2a, Sendspace and Mediafire are blocked by my Server and the file on Savefile is corrupt.

Any help would be appreciated.

[krysinello]

Unless someone else uploaded them somewhere, Sendspace and mediafire are the only place that they are. Sorry.
