Are you a Mecha Fan? - 08-05-2007, 03:59 AM

I wouldn't mind checking out the Gundam series but I don't really know where to start, there's Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam Wing, Gundam Seed, the Movies, so where to begin? do you need to have seen the series to understand the movies?

My fave mecha series would be Eva, Patlabor and Giant Robo (I know that's not strictly mecha but if Tetsujin 28 is considered mecha then so should Robo). The Big-O is also worth seeing but not as good as the above.

Gotta love mecha! Eva was barely palatable, but Gundam was right up there and I RahXephon was quite good too. I luv'ed em both!

I have only seen a few Mecha animes. For the most part they were well done. The only mecha anime that I almost saw all of was Gundam Wing. That anime was a classic. So cool, great music, great visuals, very intelligent story, and it was set in a world that could one day be ours. Awesome!

RahXephon was cool, but you have to see it all to understand it fully, same with Evangelion. I also saw a bit of Gasaraki, Macross, Zoids, Vanguard, and one other. Cannot recall the name though. lol

Escaflowne could be considered as a mecha anime. The story line is about one.

Oh hell yes I am. It's pretty much all I've watched for years. Almost every single one of my all time favorites is a mecha series. Evangelion, RahXephon, Eureka Seven, Gurren Lagann recently. Giant robots rule all else.

I think this needs to be an awesome mecha picture thread. Anyone agree?
