Kaze no Stigma

Because of Kazuma and Ayano. Their relationship is similar to those of Chidori and Sosuke. And their both funny. But, their difference is that, FMP uses military theme while Kaze no Stigma uses magic theme.
The main characters are strikingly similar, a serious-minded male lead and a tsundere female lead. Generally action oriented with a subtle/light-hearted romantic feel, so they are also akin in genre.
The relationship between the main characters kinda reminds me of each other.
Also the atmosphere. The guy and the girl, falling in love fighting side by side and in the breaks without fighting, they go through everyday problems.
Also the production studio is the same... but that doesn't count to much...
Both are Action/Romance shows based off of a novel from Monthly Dragon Magazine, where a strong male lead has to protect a weak, but strong-minded female in a High School setting. The main difference is that FMP! is mecha, but KnS is Swords/Sorcery.
the girl protaginists are almost literally excalty the same, acting tsundre towards the main protaginist
theres a bit of a difference one it comes to the guys, for FMP the girl always beats up the guy, while in kaze no stigma, he's always dodging it
also they both have dark pasts.
o, and a rival appears too for both of them.

Because of the main protagonists and overall feeling.
Kazuma and Ayano bear a striking resemblance to the duo of Sousuke and Kaname, in both their personalities and relationship. Both shows are primarily action-oriented with a familiar balance of comedy, drama, and romance. Some other similarities include style, mood, episode/plot structure, production values, and more; making both shows feel very similar to one another.
I'll admit the genres of these shows are totally different ("Full Metal Panic!" is a military mech series while "Kaze no Stigma" is a magic/fantasy series), but the underlying concept is more-or-less the same- a stoic, serious-minded mercenary is assigned as the bodyguard of a tsundere high-school student with immense power that they can't completely control.
Sousuke and Kazuma are generally quite similar, mainly in appearance. The main difference is that Sousuke is the comically serious while Kazuma is a deadpan snarker.
