Review of Full Metal Panic!

Interesting trivia: FMP can be viewed as a huge tribute to Neongenesis EVA as even the main characters are inspired by it. Kaname has a feisty spirit of the German Vixen Asuka Langley. Mellisa Mao is a straight up copy of a Misato and even a voice actress is the same. Shinji (Sagara's nerdy classmate) is light touch on Shinji himself with a bit of sanity and a phenis control. They are both motherless with a ... less than ideal father. Kurz Weber is rather similar to Kaji Ryuji not only in looks and character, but in their desires for Mellisa / Misato and other ladies. Lovethis anime to bits, especially given it was my gateway to anime world.
