Geekatana Anime Review: Full Metal Panic (2002)

Full Metal Panic is a mecha military anime that sets itself apart from other mecha anime due to its focus on military story and a far more realistic approach on combat. I guess this was one of the appeal of the series for me and has gotten me hooked. As the series was pretty much akin to the Cyberbots or Front Mission games that came years before.

I was also already reading the Full Metal Panic manga before this one was turned into an anime. So already have a clear idea of what the anime was about before even going into the first episode.
