What's mecha fetish?

>>43453185
Mecha is a metaphor for body horror and dysphoria but in a cathartic bombastic way
T. Mechagirly

It actually lines up perfectly with the psych profile of a transbians id.
>You get a new body (the mech)
>You're brain syncs with the mech (technological escapism)
>You are abused by your handler (bottom relationship goals)
>You usually get mentally destroyed by piloting it (lobotomy)
>You get burnt out and die (suicidal ideation)
>You get to do something cool and big before death (power fantasy)
>Cockpits literally pander to goo/needles/restraint/hypnosis/spandex/ect kinks

I should run a suicide booth company that lets you larp as a pilot and play armored core for a few days before crushing you after you lose

Its a smut genre for mecha that focuses on psychological abuse and body horror. Its mostly a tumblr/ao3 thing. Think Rei x Gendo in evangelian

Does attack on titan count as a Mecha anime?

>>43453411
kind of. it has a lot of the key parts. also if you think about it, evangelion isn't mechs because the evangelions are actually alive, so if that counts as mecha than SNK can count too

What about Being John Malkivich ?

>>43453504
definitely not

>>43453507
Explain

>>43453504
being john mechavich

>>43453518
<.< Fucking BJM fans always mucking up the mecha threads

>>43453513
well it doesn't have a person piloting a larger thing, it's really more like possession than mecha
if john malkovich was huge and they had to go inside him to control him and he fought monsters, it would be mecha. but it isn't, they just possess him

>>43453528
Its been years since iv seen it but isnt that the exact thing that happens?

>>43453542
no?
