Hi, what do you think of Japan G1 Transformer continuity? Not a big fan of Head Master and Power Master was ok, but I really like Transformer Victory. One thing i would compliment about the old G1 Transformer is that they manage to move past Optimus and Megatron. We manage to get Autobot leaders like Rodimus Prime , Star Saber and Dai Atlas and Decepticon leaders Overlord and Deathsaurus . Nowadays we keep going back to the status quo of Optimus and Megatron and never really move past that anymore. But these two prints money so i don't blame them.

Helloooooooooooooooooooo! I have rose up from the grave to ask you to make a list of your top 10 favorite Mecha anime openings. It can be any era, genre, or maybe series you haven't watched yet but still plan to watch it. After you make the list I'll bring my own list as well:D

(BTW i like your thoughts on my answer's to the quiz you can check the reasoning behind answer's in plastic robo profile)

So here's the award:

That's very good answers you got! You even got the 5 one correct.
But still those are some interesting answers that would trigger a Mecha fan.

The Evangelion one is what I assumed are people that never watch any other Psychological shows other than Evangelion.
Not completely wrong about Mecha being a toy commercial, but if that's what they think Mecha is all about then they definitely wrong
Ah yes Gurren Lagann is totally original ''looks at Getter Robo, Gunbuster, any other Super Robot shows'' yep totally original.
Of coarse Code Geass is not a Gundam ripoff said the guy that never watch Gundam (through personally i would say it's more like inspiration then being a rip off especially since they done by the same studio)

Welp like I said these some good answers so here's my answers to the quiz!
1. Mecha anime is dead - Gigguk
2. ''I hate all Mecha anime expect for Gurren Lagann, Code Geass, and Evangelion''
3. Evangelion is not a Mecha anime
4. Ew, Mechs are so unrealistic and impractical. That's why tanks are way better duh.
5. ''Yo it's a Transformer!'' to any mech you can think of
So what do you think my Mecha friend?

Hello! It's been a awhile since we last spoke. I'm here to give a quiz. The quiz being: Name 5 things to trigger a Mecha Fan. Just think of anything and I'll give the answers after you respond. Ready Set Go!

I'll have to look it up, for Orthodox.
A few people told me it was Easter, it's the holiday with bunnies and others hunting for decorated eggs?
As far as the bible stuff, I thought the Romans made Jesus as a propaganda tool to get the Jews in line :-(
Anyway.
I apologize.
The resurrection thing was like a page refresh. I was just in a good mood and wanted to say hi.

Just wanted to say Happy Easter.
It's been a minute, but I got resurrected somehow.
Anyway, take care.

Hi just dropping by have you try SPT Layzner and Vifam ? both Sunrise mecha from the 80s Layzner is directed by Takanashi of Dougram and Votoms fame, it really worth a watch. It also one the few where the antagonist faction Grados manage to colonize earth the only negative part of it is sponsors pulling out leading to the show premature ending the MC was suppose have his mid season upgrade like the Billbine and L -Gaim MK II called the Layzner MK II but was cut ,later having a three episode ova to end the show. Later turning the show to Fist of the North star with mecha really worth a watch much better than Aldnoah Zero. Vifam is based on a novel by Jules Verne Two Years Vacation a group of kids trying to escape to earth and fend for themselves. Vifam was the anime that inspired Eureka Seven. Tomino was also involved with the show during the early stages. Both are youtube if i am not mistaken

It's nice to see more anti-censorship people here, which is sad since we're becoming a rarity here. Saying this on your comments instead of this thread now that the thread has been polluted by the pro-censorship people with their same rhetoric they always shit out.

Yeah SRW is a little text heavy never mind the English version on steam are the more newer entries ,can't really say bad but the older games have better story all of them are JP only. As for ACE, it more on the action side choose character then launch don't really required knowledge of moonrunes if we have watch the anime it from as there only some minor changes to the plot. For Armored Core i think the some the git gud crowd sees mecha and bolt out of it. The playstyle is different from a souls games knowledge of what a part does for maximum performance cant just go in and slash your way through. Have potato computer as well so i refurbish old console to play most these games it cheaper than building a PC nowadays.

Don't mind me asking do you play mecha games something like SRW, maybe Armored Core or Another Century Episode the latter two by From software of dark soul, Bloodborne and Elden Ring fame yup they started with mecha games. SRW and Another Century Episode is fun with all the Classic roster. Armored core is fun with building your own mech but having difficulty spike in some stages.

Eureka Seven is one of my favs too, I like how mature Renton grows and the green flag platonic relationship with Eureka. Also the openings are amazing.

Interesting favorite's especially the Gundam Double X (through personally I like the Gundam X more). I can see why it would be a tie between the shin getter and generic GaoGaiGar consider they both have amazing designs so it's hard to choose to between.

But anyway thank you for answering my question and I will see you later.

What's your favorite Mecha in both real robot and super robot? Mine is the Heavy arms Gundam kai and the Shin Getter Robo.

Some non Gundam Tomino show Brave Raideen is one of his earlier show and even has the prototype for Char but the second half was by Tadao Nagahama . If you interested maybe try Dairugger XV is from Toei and quite obscure even on MAL, weird considering it was actually brought over to American to become Vehicle Voltron. If L gaim was Star Wars with mecha Dairugger is Star Trek with mecha.

What your more favorite niche and obscure mecha show ? Something that don't get mentioned in the forum at all.
