Even though the 3 seasons of the anime had me laughing (not the fourth) I was afraid it would be a downgrade but it wasn't. The personalities were well down. Now when I say the manga is good I'm only speaking for the one with Tateo as the artist.
The anime is better but the manga reminds you why you should love the anime.
Another warning the manga is a mix between season one and two.

Its decent

I think the manga is a fun little series with some nice character designs. I don't care so much for the mech designs tho, I think they looked better in the anime. Story wise the anime is more structured, while the manga in the beginning feels like a series of one shot chapters strung together. However, I would say that you get a little more detail in the manga and Chidori is nicer and more sympathetic in the manga than the anime where she is full-on Tsundere. Of course its kinda explained that her rough personality is in part due to her having lived in America until middle school and she had difficulty fitting in when she got back to Japan as she too often spoke her mind. So what we've learned is that America will take young impressionable children and turn them into violent tsunderes, lol. Overall its decent and I'm interested in giving FMP Sigma a try.

its quite funny. Its got some romance though mainly one sided. Its got action. The only thing missing is like a good twist or wateva. I mean story is good, but there is not many mysterious elements and hardly anything is revealed about the background of Sosuke. I guess the sequel will do that. But still its good. Art is really good as well.

There's a lot to love in this series: Great character development; few, if any, characters remain 1-dimensional by the end of the novel. Beautiful artwork. Creativity in a take on the mobile suit 'genre'; different for the sake of different isn't good, but this mangaka makes it work. Exciting, well-drawn battles? Cute girls? Lulz? Plenty to go around.

And best of all, a wonderfully fast pace that doesn't leave you frustrated at the end of every chapter because they spent the whole episode chatting while charging up <3

There are other series out there that delve deeper into the characters' past, have heavier love battles, etc. But none of them have done so in less than 100 chapters.

If you want a series that's easy to pick up, easygoing, doesn't drag things out, has lots of lulz, and keeps you coming back for more, look no further. I highly recommend this series.

This is one manga/anime I just can't stop enjoying no matter how many times I read or watch.

It's something that has fantastic amount of Sensible action and amazing comedy.

It's a must read for anyone who likes to read manga. The story is fast and will never bore you. The comedy is just fresh and the action is just good enough to pump up your blood...

I liked the Comedy and Action. Romance wasn't too big of a factor in the story, which disappointed me. Focused a lot more on School Life which I enjoyed.
I'll be looking forward to reading Full Metal Panic: Sigma, provided more chapters get scanlated.
