Full Metal Panic!

Synopsis: Mithril, a secret military institution that uses cutting -edge technology to combat terrorist operations, assigns a specialized team to a sensitive mission. Under the command of the Higher Officer Melissa Mao, sergeants Sousuke Sagara and Kurz Weber must secretly protect Kaname Chidori - a teenager who unconsciously maintains innovative scientific knowledge and is considered a "whispered" - from intelligence agencies and other organizations seeking their skills.

While Kurz and Melissa help him remotely, Sousuke enrolls in Kaname's High School as one of his classmates to monitor it closely. However, their militaristic education and bad social skills lead to a difficult adjustment to civil life. Not only does he attract unnecessary attention, but his actions often leave Kaname suspicious of him.

Despite sincere attempts to do their duty, a terrorist ambush further complicates Sousuke's task. Recognizing the cruel mentor behind the attack, Sousuke leaves his orders to ensure Kaname's safety.
