** Then during [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Sousuke's killing of Gates]], everyone else is watching the resulting light show with some measure of shock and awe... except for Kurz, who's ''grinning'' at the awesomeness. And we can't blame him.

* "[[{{Engrish)) Don't worry everything is gonna happy.]]"

* "[[{{Narm}} Don't worry everything is gonna happy.]]"
* At the end of Kaname and Sousuke's haircut scene to prevent herself from kissing Sousuke while he was sleeping Kaname shoves his head under the tap. "Well, then I'll wash your hair!"

* In the epilogue of Always Stand By Me, Sousuke and Al have been recovered from Merida by US Marines are are currently being held at Okinawa, pending transport to the continental US. What's left of Uruz Team assembles to break him out... and then before their plan goes into action, Sousuke breaks himself and Al's computer box out of the base, and swaps cars with the rescue team, heading to Tokyo. Everyone stands still, dumbfounded... before remembering that ''they'' have to get lost now, as angry Marines start chasing them. Al requests for a new body, and Wraith angrily berates him, saying there's no budget, prompting Al's next request:

*** The fact that Clouseaux watched anime and was adamant about keeping it a secret is pretty funny too.

** The actual dating is also comedy gold, especially when they went to a karaoke and he predictably sang a sad military march.

You’re losing a chance to pursue.''

** An episode of the anime that Lt. Clouseaux was watching featured a UnderwaterKiss... until Kurz got a hold of them and replaced them with footage of two pigs kissing. Clouseaux was NOT amused.

** Also, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMhF8Q716H8 the entire opening]] of the ''2nd Raid'' OAV when a half-asleep, [[{{Fanservice}} half-naked]] Tessa wanders in on Sousuke while he's running an AS combat simulation with Al and mistakenly think's she's still asleep and having an EroticDream. Sousuke ''freaks out''.

--> '''Al''': ''A new and high-threat target is approaching.\\

* Melissa programs the mecha AI's for...
-->'''Tessa:''' "...tango...?"

** Also, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMhF8Q716H8 the entire opening]] of the ''2nd Raid'' OAV when a half-asleep, [[{{Fanservice}} half-naked]] Tessa wanders in on Sousuke while he's running an AS combat simulation with Al and mistakenly think's she's still asleep and having an EroticDream. Sousuke ''panics'' and Al's comments don't exactly help.
--> '''Al''': A new and high-threat target is approaching.
--> '''Sousuke''': (hears something, turns around, sees Tessa, promptly jumps out of chair.) [[OhCrap Aaagh!]]
** and later, after Tessa wakes up and runs out of the room in embarrassment...
--> '''Sousuke''' What was that all about?
--> '''Al''': Enemy has retreated. You are loosing a chance to pursue.
--> '''Sousuke''': ''Shut Up!''

* Melissa programs the HumungousMecha for a new task.

*** Also, "...tango...?"
* In ''Fumoffu'', when Tessa briefly attends Jindai High, she shows up to swim class in a SchoolSwimsuit. When Kaname questions it, she explains that Kurz insisted she wear it...and we get a FlashBack to Kurz conducting a full military-style briefing, complete with data screens and a 3D model of a girl in a school swimsuit. The cherry on top is all the male Mithril crew sitting around Tessa who nod solemnly at Kurz's presentation.
* Also in ''Fumoffu'', Sousuke is debating what to eat at the popular bakery stand during lunch. Kaname tells him that he should "be assertive" lest there be nothing left. So, Sousuke pulls out his pistol, fires it into the air and demands a plain roll, then causes a panic when he threatens to shoot them. The crowning part is Kaname's reaction: she is shocked not at the fact that his pulled out a deadly weapon at school, but that HE WANTED A PLAIN ROLL.
--> '''Kaname''': ''Why plain!?!''

---> '''Al''': In that case, please install me in a [[KnightRider Trans-Am]].

* In ''Fumoffu'', when Tessa briefly attends Jindai High, she shows up to swim class in a SchoolSwimsuit.

*** Also, "...tango...?"

* In episode 8 of the first season when Sousuke, Kurz and Kaname were fleeing in Khanka and a chopper was chasing them. Sousuke promptly threw Kaname high in the air, blew the chopper with a well-thrown knife then turned back and caught her on the way down. Needless to say, upon realizing that she's out cold, Kurz remarks "Wait 'till she wakes up..."
** Episode 8 also has Souske playing a dating-sim to try and understand the fundamentals of dating/teens in general. It ends with a predictable 'Game Over' screen, but his reaction to it is comedic gold.
---> '''Souske''': Wait! If you cut off negotiations, it can only lead to war! Accept the truce and I'll listen to anything you might have to say! We should work together on a ''compromise''!

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFsXg-sa-H8&feature=related Flirting 101 Chidori Style]]
** Probably the funniest part of that scene is the final line of Kaname's MotorMouth spiel: "In other words, you need to act like [[ChivalrousPervert Kurz]]!"

* In the final episode of The Second Raid, [[TheComicallySerious Sousuke]] plays the straight man to his own mecha. They both agree the mecha is the funnier of the two.

* Tessa tries to kiss Sousuke in Fumoffu when he was dragged unconscious out of the school pool after belly-flopping in to try and save her which is funny enough on its own. She loudly and dramatically declares that he needs CPR and as she leans in to put her mouth to his before Kaname pulls her back by the hair and angrily points out that he doesn't need it.

* ''Anime/FullMetalPanicFumoffu'' is rife with these, but the best is when Sousuke acquires lunch... with a gun.
-->'''Sousuke''' [fires warning shot in the air]: I DEMAND A PLAIN ROLL!!
** The look on Kaname's face is priceless.
---> '''Kaname''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Why Plain?]]
** That whole episode was funny.
** Oh come now, the Student Council President "translating" Sousuke's lines into street in the first episode. Chris Ayres' deadpan delivery in the dub is priceless.
--->'''President Hayashimizu:''' Now listen, you punk, there's no way you'd beat me, so step off, 'cause you ain't even got one chance in a billion, you loser bi-otch.
--->'''Sousuke:''' Your language skills are outstanding, Your Excellency!
** Also the slo-mo fight between Sousuke and a horde of [[JamesBond Bond]] henchman knockoffs.
** And the wacky chase scene with the nutso cop lady.
** [=SPLASHrollrollrollWHAK=]!
--->'''Sousuke:''' ...mens' and womens' baths change at 10.
** Don't forget Sousuke's complete inability to play arcade shooter games: he runs out of ammo so pulls out a real gun and ''blows holes in the screen''. But the punchline is, when asked why he didn't just reload by aiming and firing offscreen, he responds:
---> '''Sousuke:''' [[IJustShotMarvinInTheFace That would be dangerous.]]
** And his failure in playing a Dating Sim when he chose not to help the girl in the game shop for a swimsuit.
---> '''Screen:''' GAME OVER
---> '''Sousuke:''' Wait! If you cut off negotiations from one side, it will become a war! Accept the negotiations, I'll listen to anything you have to say! We should compromise a little bit. [''{{beat}}''] Where did Chidori and the others go?
---> '''Shinji:''' They gave up, I guess.
---> '''Sousuke:''' I don't understand, Why?
*** That entire dating episode is hilarious.
---> '''Sousuke:''' Why?!
---> '''Kaname:''' Hey, Sousuke!
---> '''Sousuke:''' Why attack by yourself when there are actors left over? Such an irrational decision. [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Why do you not draw the enemies to your territory, and then destroy them when their lines become spread out?!]]
*** It can be argued that Fumoffu itself THRIVES on this trope.
** How come no one has mentioned the rugby episode of Fmmoffu? That episode was pure fun.
*** That episode was beautiful. It had Sousuke in a box, rugby team ass-kicking, and Sousuke's awesome and absolutely hilarious motivational training monologue, courtesy of a book from Mao.
** Hell, the scene that really got this troper cracking up was when they were fleeing in Khanka and a chopper was chasing them. Sousuke promptly threw Kaname high in the air, blew the chopper with a well-thrown knife then turned back and caught her on the way down. Needless to say, upon realizing that she's out cold, Kurz remarks "Wait 'till she wakes up..."
** And of course the final episode of ''The Second Raid'' where Kaname was about to dramatically enter the stage but Sousuke supposedly screwed it up by saying "Chidori, you're alive?!" Cue to her beating him up real good.
** Sousuke leading a group of yakuza into a highly fortified enemy stronghold to rescue Kaname, he and his elite team using SWAT-style Close Quarters Battle tactics against the enemy... while wearing amusement park mascot costumes.
---> '''Kaname:''' [[EmbarrassingRescue What an embarrassing way to be rescued.]]
---> '''Ren:''' Do you think so?, I think they're cute.
** Not strictly part of the anime, but [[http://www.desudesbrigade.com/2011/05/glass-reflection-full-metal-panic/ this review]] of FMP contains ''the'' most eloquent summary of Sousuke's [[ChasteHero attitude]] towards his captain at 6:00. [[spoiler:'''DO NOT WANT''' [edges away] '''WANT''' [edges forward] '''DO NOT WANT''' [edges away] '''WANT''' [edges forward] '''DO NOT WANT''' [edges away] '''WANT''' [edges forward] ]]
** The smoke bomb scene is hilarious too.
** Most of [[FauxAffablyEvil Gates]] lines apply, but I especially favor, "I wasn't planning on killing any Mithril today, but shit happens."
** Also, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMhF8Q716H8 the entire opening]] of the ''2nd Raid'' OAV when a half-asleep, [[{{Fanservice}} half-naked]] Tessa wanders in on Sousuke while he's running an AS combat simulation with Al and mistakenly think's she's still asleep and having an EroticDream. Sousuke ''panics'' and Al's comments don't exactly help.

*** Also, "...tango...?"
* There's that scene where Kaname performs the [[WrestlerInAllOfUs Japanese Ocean Cyclone Suplex hold]] on Sousuke when he forgot her notes. And the subsequent mission that followed... all to [[MundaneMadeAwesome obtain a notebook]].
* Any scene involving the Police Lady's involvements with Sousuke. Especially in her fight with Bonta-kun!Sousuke, someone was having a little too much fun.
* Tessa explaining her credentials:
---> '''Tessa:''' I'm a submariner! In other words, [[DoubleEntendre getting wet]] is my business.
---> '''Kaname:''' Ooh. Poor choice of words.

* ''FullMetalPanic: Fumoffu'' is rife with these, but the best is when Sousuke acquires lunch... with a gun.

* The scene where a half naked half asleep Tessa encounters Sousuke in the submarine.

--->'''President Hayashimizu:''' Now listen, you punk, there's no way you'd beat me. So step off, 'cause you ain't even got one chance in a billion, you loser bi-otch.
