to elaborate: FMP is based on books
the manga is based on the books+the short stories based in the FMP world
the anime Full Metal Panic! is based in the straightforward world of the novels
Fumoffu is the animation of the "filler" manga chapters and the short stories written by the original author.
the manga has an interesting way of going about it, too: Vol. 1 is mostly school comedy, vol. 2 is entirely about the events in N. Korea, vol 3 is more comedy, and vol. 4 is more plot
