As I am a rabid Evangelion fan, I would say that Evangelion Unit 01 because A.T. field.
But I have heard that the Jaegers of Attack/Titan are very powerful.
I have also heard (atrocious) comedy shows like Gurren Lagan have absurdly powerful mecha.




Thoughts?

I'm pretty sure a couple of mechs are bigger than the galaxy at the very least.

I don't discuss that kind of things much because it's endless, but a giant armored humanoïd would probably stomp a mecha of roughly the same size, mostly because mechas and even walking tanks are impractical and expensive bullshit.

It's not just a 'comedy show', little humour doesn't take away from it in any way, it's just really over the top, but I don't see why couldn't it be taken into consideration.
But calling it atrocious was uncalled for, bad way to start a discussion.


Anyways, Evangelion is nowhere near being most powerful, I don't have THAT much experience with mecha, but I have watched a decent number and it seems to be among the weakest.

True, but it is widely known as a mecha show, and them being biological isn't something you know from the very beginning.

I'm willing to accept that. What would you have in mind as a superior mecha? Gundam Epion? One of the Jaegers? a Macross Unit perhaps?

I am reluctant to accept a joke comedy show like Gurren Lagan as any sort of serious contender.

I'm reluctant to discuss with someone that dismisses Gurren Lagann as a 'joke show' because it's not one. Only makes you look like a dick.

Anyway, most Gundams, Macross (not a valkyrie/vf, although even here I would say they are stronger) Rahxephon, Nirvash (Eureka Seven) just to name a few. In general Evangelion's inability to fly makes it pretty weak contender.

Eva Units can tank nukes and have the penetrating power of one with an A.T Field. Not sure how you reason most Gundams can deal with that.

Nirvash ? All it does is ram opponents with is board. No AT field, no trapars, an Eva wins hands down in my opinion. Nirvash can flee in plane form that magically doesn't need fuel I guess.

I'm reluctant to listen to someone that becomes insecure at one of their favorite shows being called what it is. It is a joke comedy show, by the shows own admission even (Ex: The intro shows the tone very clearly). Your lashing out only makes you look like a fanboy rather than just a fan.

That being said, having looked into "Demonbane" mecha, it sounds immeasurably powerful and probably wins the title.

Some shows just don't feel like shoving their meaning in your face like NGE. I haven't seen TTGL but I know for sure Kill la Kill is a good example of what I mean.

With Elder God Demonbane, that's like throwing a lit match in to a wildfire. It's not really gonna do anything.

How am I being insecure? You start a thread, call a show 'atrocious' and 'joke' (even though you haven't watched it and clearly have no idea what you're talking about) and refuse to accept it for some stupid reason, what do you expect?

Calling it atrocious is my opinion.
Calling it a joke is not my opinion, it is a joke comedy show.... again, the writers/animators/show itself are clearly aware of the satirical nature. The harder you argue against reality, the more of a fanboy you appear to be... but enough of this, there is no need to argue reality as it is apparent to all.

Did some more research, looks like Azatoth is the strongest Mecha.
If that Shirouga thing is part of the Demonbane universe, then he's basically just a part of Azatoth's dream.

The worst Gundams and other mobile suits can do is wipe out all life on a planet and only the Divinidad can do that and it's not super practical, Turn A and X can wipe out civilization at best alone. Ideon is stronger than those.

Shurouga is from Super Robot Wars. Demonbane also appears in SRW, but I don't recall if they appear in the same continuity

I found it to be quite subtle. The show leaves some hints and references that let me think that it's deeper than what the community admits.

There was a Demonbane who beat Shurouga :P
But that shtty ass excuse for a list doesn't properly explain how broken he is.
This one is better.

Well it says so in that thing
also, looks like part of it is overhyped: http://www.narutoforums.com/showthread.php?t=1037644
looks like the Supreme God Z is stronger than the mecha, since Shurouga is just a part of the Supreme God Z. So most of it is using wrong powerscaling.

So Elder God Demonbane is still probably stronger.
