Full Metal Panic and Full Metal Panic Second Raid

Plot (From Wikipedia):
The main story develops its characters carefully, and is the shadow or "unusual" events of the protagonist's life. These stories feature the mercenary group Mithril, their mobile base/submarine, called the TDD-1 Tuatha De Danaan, giant humanoid powered suits called Arm Slaves, and the various missions to which Sousuke Sagara is assigned. A highlight of the series is a serious and semi-realistic view of humanoid robotic weapons on the battlefield. The Arm Slave has significant consideration in its portrayal, with explanations given for its power source, operations, maintenance and pilot user interface. The existence of such advanced weaponry and equipment is explained through Black Technology.

My Thoughts:
I watched this series a few years ago so excuse the crude review.

My hubby loves mecha type anime so we decided to rent this series. It was decent nothing too spectacular. There was a mix of action, comedy and romance. It is a good series for the younger crowd, 13-17 years of age. I did try to rewatch this but I ended up watching a few. It just goes to show that my tastes have somewhat changed. Overall I will still give this series a 3 out of 5. If you've run out of anime to watch this will be a good filler.
