金属外壳MADOX-01

An ordinary young man who accidentally comes into contact with a powerful military weapon. This OVA sci-fi work depicts the intense battles he becomes entangled in. 　　Taigasaki Heavy Industries, the Self-Defense Forces, and the U.S. military have jointly completed the development of a new anti-tank ground weapon, the Slave Trooper "MADOX." It is a prototype powered suit possessing formidable armor and firepower. However, during performance tests, Ace Killgore of the U.S. Army Tank Corps, forced to play a supporting role, harbors a grudge against MADOX. During its secret transportation, MADOX unexpectedly ends up in the hands of Kōji Sugimoto, an ordinary young man working at an automobile factory, due to an unforeseen accident. The incomplete program activates, causing the suit to envelop Kōji, but he has an important task that day—to see off his girlfriend, Shiori Nakura, who is leaving to study abroad. Forced to head to the airport while still clad in MADOX, Kōji soon encounters the figure of that very Killgore... 　　A sci-fi action anime produced by Artmic. The protagonist's comedic decision to prioritize meeting his girlfriend over an unprecedented emergency is contrasted by the serious progression of the plot. The character designs by the talented animator Hideki Tamura are also deeply memorable.
