For those of you who know me, you should know by now that I’m an Anime Freak. I’m in love with Japanese Animation, and have bought numerous DVDs in support of that love. Recent purchases include the Cowboy Bebop Box Set, the Samurai Champloo Box Set, the Cowboy Bebop Movie (Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door), the Mezzo Box Set, Robotech: The Macross Saga (Harmony Gold version), Robotech: The Complete Collection (Mega-Pack of all three sagas — This is not the remastered version, although I may buy it too), etc … The list goes on and on.

A series that I’ve taken a special interest to, thanks to Winamp and Shoutcast, is Full Metal Panic. If you could see my desktop background … wait, wait, wait … Give me a moment … Okay, it’s uploading. Here it is.

Anyway, as I was saying … Full Metal Panic is my current anime obsession. The original series box set and the box set of The Second Raid sequel to the original were added to my purchases this morning. The wonderful people over at Anime Streams maintain the stream of The Second Raid, and I’ve watched some of the original series over at YouTube. I recommend at least watching some of that, even if you don’t intend to buy for yourself. They’re all subbed, just to let you know. The anime is beyond remarkable, though … Definitely worth a watch.

Details on the original show can be obtained through this Full Metal Panic website, and details on the entire series can be obtained through Wikipedia.
