I started reading Full Metal Panic! already being a huge fan of it because I had watched the anime adaption of the series first. Also this is my first review so I hope you enjoy it.

With that being said lets get started with this review:

Story - 10/10

The story is that of a romantic comedy which is full of hilarious situations between a sergeant named Sousuke Sagara and a girl named Chidori Kaname. As the story progresses you get to witness not only their developing relationships, but you also get a bit mecha action as you get to see into the everyday life of Sergeant ...

I saw there was no review for this manga, so I thought I should try making one. Be warned, this is my first review, so it’s not going to be perfect, but I hope it can be helpful at least =P

Full Metal Panic! is a light mecha manga with plenty of other elements, such as humour and a slice of life feel in some chapters.

Story - 6

It is not really ground-breaking and new. “Boy protects girl” plot has been done several times, and the irrelevant slice of life-ish chapters can make it feel like a very slow story, however later it becomes apparent that ...

"I don't have any regrets. I'm glad I met you" Is what our heroine Kaname Chidori has to say seems romantic ? Quite a lot.

So what we have here is an intense Romance and Comedy manga mixed with action and Mechas all over the place making it quite a nice read so looking closer we see a story of clueless guy and strong willed girl trying to survive seems nice but lets add Tons of comedy , deadly battles and drama here and there we would get an story line so Writer Gatoh, Shoji brought us an story with many turns here and there ...

TL:DR
Confused plot, wild tonal dissonance, can't decide what genre it wants to be. Boring characters. barely any romantic progression and not a lot of chemistry anyway. Do not recommend, I'd give this one a hard pass

Story: 3/10
The manga reads like the author had two different ideas that they tried to do at the same time. It veers between comedy gag manga and serious shounen action so quickly and frequently that I'm getting complete tonal whiplash. Sometimes it happens mid-chapter! This confused plot works to the detriment of both ideas. You can't get into the romcom or comedy because look, Sagara just shot someone in the ...
