These animes are both mechas that are really amazing. What makes the characters special are that they all go through mental struggles that help to make the characters feel more real and human. Also, 86 does use cgi for the mechs but it is the best cgi i have ever seen, if anything I will forever defend the use of cgi for the mechas only because of the high quality of cgi. I do prefer animation over cgi but in this case I prefer the cgi.
