The world of anime has given us some stunning series that revolve around the idea of mech suit, pilotable vehicles that have made the likes of Gundam, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Gurren Lagan, and so many others household names among fans, and now, fans are taking to social media to share their favorite franchises that focus on these weapons of war. Though the coronavirus pandemic has caused a number of projects in the world of mech anime to be delayed such as the upcoming feature length films for both Mobile Suit Gundam and Evangelion, there is still plenty in store for this specific genre!

Code Geass For The Win

Gurren shits the bed hard half way through and never really recovers, only good character was Kamina who’s not in most of the show and Nia is one of the worst characters of all time.

Code Geass and Eva are both great but I think Code Geass takes it for me cos of a better ending.

There’s Lot To Choose From

NGE
Code Geass
Mobile Suit Gundam: IBO

Watched 10 episodes or so of Lagann, couldn’t really get into it. The lack of a real solid story arc kind of put me off. Kinda felt the same way about kill la kill though and ended up loving it so 🤷🏻‍♂️

We Can Still See Eva When We Close Our Eyes

EVA scared me, and wedged a deep existential dread. All of the characters were miserable even when they acted otherwise. And humanity earned its fate. It is visual depression. A great Cosmic Horror story. But also one that could have been avoided by killing Gendo, frigging madman

Can’t Everyone Get An Award?

Why would I compare these completely different masterpieces to each other? Just because robots? They are all equally fantastic (tho TBH I haven’t seen geass yet.)
