Kaname Chidori is a seemingly normal high school student and one of the most popular girls in her class. But when she is suspected of possessing the superpowers of an elite group known as The Whispered the teen is targeted by a terrorist organisation bent on using her skills for their own nefarious purposes. In order to protect Kaname an anti-terror syndicate known as Mithril sends in a military specialist named Sousuke Sagara to act as the teens secret bodyguard. But Sousuke soon discovers that trying to fit in with the popular crowd is more difficult than anything the terrorists could throw his way especially with his gung-ho military training and total lack of socialisation skills jeopardising his mission at every turn. Directed by Kouichi Chigara and produced by GONZO Digimation the anime series FULL METAL PANIC chronicles Kaname and Sousukes awkward friendship with equal parts action comedy and coming-of-age drama. This complete collection includes all 24 episodes of the funny and thrilling series.

Seems like it's gone.. It was there earlier though, I followed the link.
But dvds like this usually have jap language with subs, and english language.

Yeah I suspect they took it down. Looks like it's back again but at £21.95, still cheaper than Amazon but not as good as £17.99 was. Direct link: http://www.dvd.co.uk/DVD/Full-Metal-...00/product.htm

FUMOFFU (the follow up series) is still up at £16.87 however http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/47119...fu-complete-c/ or direct link here: http://www.dvd.co.uk/DVD/Full-Metal-...00/product.htm

If only that was the price of all 3 seasons.

£18 X 3 = a fortune!

Plus, Outside Japan sales don't count when the animation company takes in to account the popularity of an anime base don sales.

Can you honestly complain about that for an entire series consisting of for 7 discs/650 minutes of entertainment? I think you'll also find you're confusing seasons with series, FUMOFFU and The Second Raid are follow up series and are NOT more seasons of the same thing.

Check your facts mate.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_Metal_Panic!
There are two seasons and a spinoff and a OVA. Many like myself unofficially consider Fumoffu a season.

For 50 episodes and that too for an anime, £54 is indeed a lot.
24 season 1-6 costs £130 on amazon. 48 episodes, approx. 50, 2 seasons would cost £43ish.

Besides, let's not forget that many people have already watched this subbed and would buy this only as a collector's item or the one-in-a-fortnight watch purpose.

I did check my facts, you didn't. From your link "Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu is a companion series", "Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid is the direct sequel to the original anime series", again you're confusing the term season and series! Just to spell it out for you, Naruto is a series, Bleach is a series, they both have seasons which follow on directly from one another. With Full Metal Panic! each series is self contained, and has a beginning middle and end and in the case of the "two seasons" you refer to they were released years apart. Ok so each series isn't particularly long, but you find it cheaper (legally) elsewhere in the UK and then you can moan all you like. As for "already watched this subbed" if you like amine so much support it and buy it, if people don't buy it then Anime wont be released over here in future and you wont have the option of buying your "collector's item".
