Sousuke Sagara is a sergeant of an anti-terrorist organization named Mithril. The 17-year old Sousuke is a skilled fighter and adept in handling arms and explosives. He’s also competent to perform camouflage.

The story continues further as Sousuke is entrusted with a mission to protect Kaname Chidori from terrorist attacks. She is a 16-year old girl studying at Jindai High School. The reason why Kaname is targeted is unrevealed.

To carry on his assignment, assisted by a comrade, Sousuke goes to the school as a student. But on reaching the school, he started seeing everything through a combat prism. For him, everything, even the most common social activities, seemed to be terrorist attacks.

This reveals the other side of Sousuke, who is incompetent in socializing. Nevertheless, he continues his surveillance and protects Chidori from terrorist strikes.

But what will be the reason why she is targeted?

If season 5 of Full Metal Panic will be released, we can see four central characters.

The first being Sousuke himself, who is the male lead of the series. He is part of Mithril’s Special Response Team and is known by his code name Uzru-7. How much ever competent he may be in handling the most sophisticated weaponry, he’s still a 17-year old boy who struggles to adapt himself to society.

Next is undoubtedly Kanama Chidori, a student with special powers in understanding and comprehending advanced science and mathematics. Though she always tops the school, Chidori is unaware of her true potential. She was irritated and wary of the all-time presence of Sousuke but eventually fell in love with him.

Kurz Weber, known by his code name Uzru-6 is Sousuke’s comrade who accompanies him in his assignment.
Another notable character will be Melissa Mao (Uzru-2), the second commander of the anti-terrorist militant organization. She is an able leader known for her expertise in cyberwar.
