Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu Complete Series

Principal!

Jindai Tokyo Municipal High School

Principal! Principal!

Principal!

What is it, Vice Principal?

Please, take a look at this!

An estimate for school repair expenses?

Uh-huh, uh-huh...

A total of four hundred thirty five thousand yen?

Is this for last month?

This is for last WEEK!

And it's all the work of that student, Sagara Sousuke!

He's a chronic property wrecker and a class nuisance!

Vice Principal, I trust you are aware of his circumstances, are you not?

He's traveled from one dangerous foreign hot spot to another since he was very young...

As a result, he cannot become accustomed to the conventional wisdom of peaceful Japanese society.

Even if that were the case, his actions are erratic!

That is why we, as instructors, must guide him.

So, you're going to overlook this?

Yes I am.

Principal,

according to rumors, there was a charitable donation upon his transfer.

That has nothing to do with this.

And a SIZABLE donation at that.

That has nothing to do with this.

So, Sergeant Sagara-kun,

you aren't causing any trouble for the folks at school?

Negative, Captain.

We cannot have any trouble.

We are, after all, a top secret mercenary unit.

There's no need to worry.

I will eliminate any enemy that gets close to Chidori,

no matter what means they use, even if they're on school grounds.

That's not what I meant...

My apologies, Captain.

But it is time for school.

Have a nice day.

Ending transmission.

Sagara-san? Hold on...

Full Metal Panic?

"I love you..."

SAGARA

Your sincere look and manly profile.

I've always watched you from afar and sighed.

Feel free to laugh at this coward who can only express her feelings in a letter like this.

But, whenever I think of you, I feel as though my heart would burst.

If only I could make my heart stop beating,

my soul could rest in peace...

Please accept my feelings for you.

I'll wait behind the gymnasium after school for you."

The Man From the South

You look sleepy, Kana-chan.

Were you up late last night again?

Yeah. That Stallone movie last night was so good...

You watched the whole thing?

Yeah. There were some spectacular explosions.

KABOOM!

What was that?

Oh, Kana-chan!

All right.

It's NOT all right!

Why are you blowing things up so early in the morning?!

Explain yourself, Sousuke!

I found signs of tampering in my shoe locker.

Since there was the possibility a bomb was planted...

A bomb...

I detonated it, just to be safe.

Oh, I see...

What kind of in our peaceful country would plant a bomb in someone's shoe locker?!

You're so naive.

There was a recent incident in which a group of terrorists

blew up a high ranking official by planting a bomb in his mailbox.

Likewise, I cannot afford to be careless.

But that doesn't give you a reason to do something like this!

But Chidori,

the most appropriate method to dispose of suspicious materials is to detonate them...

It is not appropriate!

You're always constantly...

Huh?

What's that?

It appears to be a letter...

Oh, you're right...

Student Council Room

Thirteen wounded,

three shoe lockers,

three shoe lockers,

forty pairs of slippers,

and twenty-nine pairs of shoes destroyed.

That's it for the damages.

Thank you, Mikihara-kun.

Well, then, fellow students,

would someone care to explain what this fuss is about?

Your Excellency, I will explain.

I'm listening.

Sir.

Today at 0815,

I had just arrived at school when I noticed something wrong with my shoe locker.

A suspicious article?

Affirmative.

Since there was the possibility it was dangerous,

I implemented the most reliable means of disposing it.

And what means was it?

Destruction by means of a high-yield explosive.

An explosion, you say?

Yes.

Oh my...

I see, that is most reliable.

What's the matter, Chidori?

You certainly are a noisy girl.

Hayashimizu-senpai, don't you think that's a little abnormal?!

What high school on Earth has students who would blow up a shoe locker?!

There's one right here, is there not?

Oh, come on!

It seems that you lack sufficient understanding...

Imagine this.

For instance, let's assume that a package from a stranger has arrived at your house.

When you pull it out, you hear the sound of something rustling inside.

It could have a foul stench or be slightly warm.

It's THAT kind of package.

So, Chidori-kun.

Would you still open that package and take a look inside?

No, I wouldn't. I'd throw it away.

You would, wouldn't you.

And if it were a shoe locker, you'd have no choice but to blow it up.

Is that the way it goes?

That's the way it goes.

I will explain this to the teaching staff.

That is all.

Does it look like you can read the letter?

Uh-huh.

Judging from the contents,

this is a letter from a hostile third party.

Huh?!

See, this letter goes...

"Sousuke Sagara.

I've always watched you from afar

I've always watched you from afar

I've always watched you from afar.

You coward.

You coward.

You coward.

I'll make your heart stop beating, and then you'll rest in peace.

I'll make your heart stop beating, and then you'll rest in peace.

I'll make your heart stop beating, and then you'll rest in peace.

Meet me behind the gymnasium after school.

Meet me behind the gymnasium after school.

I'll kill you."

I'm almost certain that's what the letter says.

Why do you think of it that way?

First off, this is a girl's handwriting!

A feint to foil handwriting analysis.

This guy may be a pro.

What a creepy pro.

Anyway, I think this is a love letter.

What's that?

In other words... there's a girl out there who likes you, right?

Um... Aren't you happy?

I don't follow you, but it's not a problem.

Where are you going?

To make a preemptive strike.

Class'll start soon!

Sousuke!

Sheesh...

Jin High! Let's go! Let's go!

Jin High! Let's go! Let's go!

Looks like no one's here yet.

Say, why are you here checking up on Sagara-kun?

Well, because...

I'm the Student Council Vice President

and the class rep...

so I've got to keep an eye on him...

I see...

What's that supposed to mean?

And what exactly are you doing following me?

'Cause it looked like fun.

You've got a lot of nerve...

Looks like she's here.

That's Saeki Ena-san from Class One.

They say she came in second at the Miss Jin High pageant at the school festival last year.

Oh, really.

Hmph! She has a face that any man would fall for.

But she's probably an airhead.

It seems she's good at school too.

I think she ranked fifth on the end of year tests...

But it looks like our subject in question, Sagara-kun, has yet to arrive.

Sagara-kun's not coming.

Yeah, it's been two hours.

I think I'll go home now.

What are you going to do, Kana-chan?

I'll...

I'll wait a little bit longer.

Okay, see you tomorrow!

Bye.

That Sousuke. What a jerk!

Standing her up like that... It's just too much...

Oh, that's gotta hurt!

You'll die if you're not careful.

And then...

Oh? A girl!
