Full Metal Panic!

For me the only difference is that FMP has a lot of comdey in it and Code Geass doesn't. Both are, at least for me, the two best animes in the genre(mecha, action...)!

Both aboput war and suffering, but Full Metal Panic has a funny side to it as well. Although the stories are different, they are both about the war against different countries and using robots to fight.

As soon as I began watching Code Geass I was reminded of Full Metal Panic! Whilst the storylines for both series differ greatly they're both similar in the sense that they aren't your conventional Mecha style anime. Although Code Geass features a lot more mechs than Full Metal Panic! does, it goes more into the people piloting the mechs, their emotions and relationships and develops each and every character efficiently. Rather than possessing a storyline along the lines of "Evil mechs are invading, ALL GOOD MECHS LAUNCH AN ASSAULT". Code Geass is similar to Full Metal Panic! in the sense that the story revolves around some form of magical power, in Full Metal Panic's case it's the Whispered and in Code Geass' case it's the Geass and CC. An added bonus, which it also shares with Full Metal Panic!, is that rather than just slapping this magic power on people and saying "Yeah they have this power so they can do stuff" the anime goes into detail about the power and it's origins, although it still keeps a lot of things in the dark for the next season, it makes the power of Geass believable. Although these anime differ greatly from one another there are still those core elements present in Code Geass that I enjoyed in Full Metal Panic! and would definately reccomend to anyone who's watched FMP! to have a look at Code Geass.

Mecha, Military and I think a bit of romance? Meh. They are both similar at my prespective.

The plot is the same with a huge difference in tone. Both have mechs and such with a main character with a special ability.

In FMP it is the Whispered, while in Code Geass, it is C.C.

The FMP is at best the funniest, however it can, at certain points, be as 'dark' as Code Geass.

FMP is much lighter, with a greater amount of comedy, but both are excellent series that have highly-intelligent characters, war, romance, mecca and a good story

while in code geass, the male lead, lelo command the other female leads cc and kallen, and in fmp, the female lead kaname or tessa basically command sosuke. so in this feature, the sex is totally swaped..In code geass there is just as much mecha action as fmp. they both involve a special weapon that both protagonist and anatogonist control and as they struggle for victory. In code geass the special weapon was the Avalon, and the Lancelot and the other 9 knights of the round. But in fmp its the landad driver. FMP focuses on comedy and current settings, while code geass is sci fi and is set in the future and doesnt go for the comedy as much... in the end, i think these 2 great anime is interconnected. one literally reminds me of the other.. and up until now, i havent heard of any1 who likes fmp but doesnt like code geass... i greatly recommend it !!!!!!!!!

They share the same basic concept of war and strategy. And also the use of robot machines that beat the crap out of stuff.

High school guy who's part of a military group in an alternate-history version of modern Japan protects a female who's close to him, has ridiculous-yet-awesome super-powered mech fights, comedy's interspersed throughout the show(FMP! has far, far more comedy though). If you like one, then there's no way you won't like the other.

Main characters have similar backgrounds, and as result they are both pretty emotionless. Both series are mecha, and are about organizations fighting against terrorism. Also, Gundam 00's Innovators are somewhat similar to FMP's Whispered.

they are both about young a kids who was originally from this arab looking country as members of a guerrilla team that took down mechas but then turned good and so became a mercenary and later he meets a person he knew when he was a guerrilla and has to fight him. the only difference is that one killed his own parents and the other didn't talk about them another difference is that one is mostly comedy and the other is mostly action. they both have to do with mechas and robots and having the most advanced weapon on their side. all in all they are amazing animes if you liked one you will like the other.

Mecha, action, guns, drama, and a little romance. Both these series are excellent science fiction anime with both protagonists having military experience. They show why they are in the military and doing what they do best.

The plot is kinda the same, both group don't belong to the Army but they are fighting enemy for a better future......Mobile suit Gundam have more awesome fighting but Full metal panic are funnier.
