Not only the magazine gives you faster access to the latest trouble caused by Sousuke but special articles carried from time to time are VERY good source of the background information.

The first of the three-CD drama series from Dragon Magazine. The
story is based on one of the short novels.
The principal of Jindai High School decides to abolish its rugby club as it is phenomenally incompetent. Iwashimizu manages to persuade her to give them a last chance; a match against Garasuyama High. He sends Kaname and Sousuke to the club to train the club for victory. | |

The second of the three-CD drama series from Dragon
Magazine. Again the story is based on one of the short novels.
On her way back home with Kyouko, Kaname bumps into Fuwa, her senior from her junior high school day. He suggests her to date, which Kaname happily agrees. Yet this decision soon makes her pensive and Sousuke notices it. Kyouko tells him the reason and they decide to follow Kaname through the date... | |

The last of the FMP Dramatic Dragon series.
Tessa decides to take a summer holiday in Tokyo. Yes, she not only stays at Sousuke's flat but also disguises herself as a transfer student to Jindai High School. As expected, Sousuke doesn't know what to do while Kaname is extremely annoyed although she never admits it ^_^;; I wish this episode will be visualised someday (oh, please!). Also I really like Minami Omi as Tessa. | |

The maxi-single for the OP and ED song. The ED song is, IMHO,
one of the best anime song ever made. Purely in terms of
music, it may not be so but the lyrics captures the essence of
the series perfectly.
Given the female vocal, I thought the song was for Kaname at first but its very modest yet sincere way of expressing one's feeling seems more appropriate to Souske. Whichever, if the phrase, "I was so glad to see you. I was so proud of your hand in mine" doesn't touch you, you're not a FMP fan in my definition. | |

The first soundtrack CD contains BGMs and the full-length OP
and ED songs (a good old PoniCany tradition ^_^). The first
half of the BGM covers the serious side of Sousuke's life as a
Mithril soldier, while the second half corresponds to his life
as a student of Jindai High (I like the former a little better
than than the latter).
I can peacefully recommend this to all FMP fans. | |
