Full Metal Panic The Second Raid - Tactical Ops 02

Product Description More Metal, More Panic! With a traitor in hiding, Mithni goes on the hunt. One crashed party and a high-speed gunfight later, the turncoat's information has the mercenary group abuzz. There's a new threat to world peace: Amalgam., an unknown element with advanced mech technology, this mysterious organization has been running things from behind the scenes. As dissension spreads throughout the ranks of the Mithni, Sosuke faces his own internal struggle. Spread thin between schoolwork and war, the powers that be have decided to lighten his load...beginning with Kanamel. Even loyalty has its limits! Amazon.com Multiple plot lines split off as the third season of Full Metal Panic! continues. The mercenary corps Mithril faces internecine quarrels as its leaders cope with a double agent. Melissa and Kurz go into action for the first time this season, with some help from Sousuke--although it keeps him from studying for midterms. Sousuke and Kaname get a rare, intimate moment when she gives him a much-needed haircut (after he nearly shoots up a salon). Mithril orders Sousuke to abandon the mission to protect Kaname: the sinister-sounding Wraith will assume that duty and Sousuke will return to piloting the super- mecha Arbalest. For the first time in his life, Sousuke is torn between obeying orders and genuine emotions. Kaname panics after passing one of the Chinese assassin sisters in the street, then discovers Sousuke has disappeared. The extras include more footage of location-scouting in Hong Kong and commentaries from some of the Japanese voice actors.
