Dai-Guard and Full Metal Panic are opposite sides of the same coin. Full Metal Panic is a super robot show that masquerades as a real robot show, while Dai-Guard is a real robot show done in the style of a super robot show. Dai-Guard closely examines some of the themes that Full Metal Panic takes for granted (like what would compel a private company to fund a mecha project, and what the military's response would be to a privatized defense program). Both series enjoy their comedic moments off the battlefield.
