Anime from top left to bottom right:
- Gundam 00
- Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale
- Gundam Build Divers
- Psycho Pass
- Gundam SEED
- Infinite Stratos
- Gundam Build Fighters
- Aldnoah.Zero
- Rent a Girlfriend
IMO this doesn’t belong in !animemes@ani.social. Try !anime@ani.social?
But this format has meme potential.
Have fun
So a lot of mechas ? 😅
The only mecha anime I’ve watched and remember are Code Geass and Aldnoah Zero.
I liked Aldnoah Zero quite a bit personally… that is, I liked season 1.
They fucked up s2 by making it all about the hardware that the MC uses instead of his skill like in s1. They also ruined the last really impactful scene of season 1.Not enough mecha anime gets produced nowadays. It’s pretty barren outside of Gundam every couple years.
TBF they dragged that horse for miles in the 90s.
There were a couple of really good Mecha + Isekai that I enjoyed recently, or at least I read the manga, “Knights and Magic” as well as “The World of an Otome Game is Tough for Mobs”.
Kaiju No 9 was pretty good. I know it’s a kaiju not a mecha, but it’s pretty similar in execution
The issue with Infinite Stratos is that it’s part of a genre of near exact plot copies. It’s almost always a dude who is accepted into a magic/scifi academy and catches the attention of the flame princess and builds a harem. The MC is always somehow a special unique case.
Infinite Stratos
Chivalry of a Failed Knight
Academy Battle City Asterisk
Undefeated Bahamut Chronicle
The Testament of Sister New Devil
Hybrid x Heart Magias Academy Ataraxia
The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy
Absolute Duo
Blade Dance of the Elementalers
Freezing
Myriad Colors Phantom World
World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman
HundredThe list goes on.
I’m extremely confused how you don’t like build fighters but like divers
Right? Build Fighters was incredibly charming, but Divers is genuinely one of the worst things I’ve ever seen. I think the AI girl the MC was simping over would’ve had more personality if she were written by an LLM!
Because Divers gave us Re:Rise & had really good gunpla designs
While Fighters gaves us Try & had really half-assed designs (except the Dark Matter Exia)
Because Divers gave us Re:Rise & had really good gunpla designs
I guess if that’s your primary metric I can’t deny I liked the Tequila Custom that Build Divers brought us.
But divers only happened because of fighters
You should probably watch UC gundam.
Patlabor and dai-guard are also good mecha anime.
Watch UC Gundam
I have, and it’s my 2nd favorite
God I was so hyped for Aldnoah’s second season,
spoiler
then it starts by undoing the finale of the first one so cheaply
I got so mad I never finished.
