might need ppl with better Jpn skills to confirm this, but it looks like they've set an air date; July 13th

and a special programme to be aired the week before; July 6th

anyway, check out the top pic... Clouzot and his black M9

and Leonard.......

I LOVE Clouzot. Partly because his name makes me think of Peter Sellers as Inspecter Clouseau in the "Pink Panther" movies (everyone should see them, they are very enjoyable) and partly because he simply kicks so much butt it's not even funny.

Looks good! It's great to have some new art to go with the series. We have all seen the trailer a million times I'm sure and I know that I am getting pretty tired of those same screen shots from it. I want new! I can't wait for July 6th!

This might be an already answered question or possibly an unanswerable one but does anyone know who the blond guy with the huge cleft chin is? Is he perhaps the Hong Kong Mithril intellgence agent who helps out Mao and the team? But I kinda doubt that....hmmm, he looks kinda evil to me.

OH WELL

*runs away to mark July 6th and 13th on her calender*

Ya, other websites are saying July 13th too.

Ooo, the anticipation. I hope Shimokawa Mikuni will do the songs for this season too.

Aw yeah! I expect this series to go all out.

another interesting note.... it looks like TSR will have a midnight screening and is rated R-15(?) Maybe due to the language? Anyway, i guess this means TSR will be darker than its predecessor, perhaps....

anyway, the full seiyuu list is listed at animenewsnetwork... I haven't heard the seiyuu for what-his-face yet. But I hope it's voice that I can loathe

Reinselft: "Anyway, i guess this means TSR will be darker than its predecessor, perhaps...."

It dang well better be if it wants to hold to the feel of the way the novels are heading! And isn't dark, angsty drama strangely more satisfying than comedy or feel-good stuff? Well, I don't know about you, but for me it is. Even if DURING a series I get all wrapped up in the angst, at the end it comes out a better show because of all the emotions it was able to evoke. I still love comedy though, don't get me wrong, and I love FMP comedy especially. There is a limit however, and a time to get serious...

<dark, ominous voice> That time is now...</dark, ominous voice>

Bring it on, TSR, bring...it...on.

According to translations of the Newtype scans shown previously, he's an anime-original character named (possibly, judging from the katakana) "Gates".

Bill Gates, that is.

Okay, just kidding. Not much is known about him, but he looks quite firmly aligned on the side of the bad guys (not to be discriminatory, but that grimace just gives it away). And man, is he u-g-l-y.

I suppose you already know who the two chicks are, so we'll leave things at that.

I just did some recon at the animenewsnetwork in the TSR section. Intelligence there confirms that the opening and closing themes will be by the renowned Shimokawa Mikuni. Her songs on Full Metal Panic! and Full Metal Panic? FUMOFFU are awesome. I'm glad that they're going with her to do the singing, I was a bit worried about who would do the vocals of The Second Raid.

Haha, I added the Shimokawa stuff on ANN

. After learning the news from reinselft, I went ahead and beat everyone else to the encyclopedia to add the information

. <3 Reinselft is my secret spy.

Lol. That's pretty cool, saying something that another forum member added to a website.

Too bad I can't watch it. I really hope pics and other goodies will be sent out to those who can't watch it.

Can't wait till it all comes out at once on DVD or somethin. Hehehe...

o.o I must be doing a good job being a 'secret spy' since I don't even know that I am a secret spy in the first place.
