after much observation and research i've come to the conclusion that the only people that dislike mecha stuff (anime, games etc,) are either women or effeminate men.

what are your thoughts /m/?

As someone who talks to anime fans regularly, they hype up shonen/seinen fights but don't give a fuck about mecha fights because the shonen/seinen ones are actually people fighting, while the mecha fights have "less stakes" and action because they're fighting with their robots instead. It's stupid I know, but this is thr way these people think. Also this shit >>22841288

I am over embellishing a bit here as there are inconsistencies. For one, it's a pseudo black hole that can have its gravitational pull manipulated by the dragon mech at will. The inconsistency here is that the Hagane does escape from singularity but is later shown to be taking extreme damage from the expanding black hole gravitational pull. Two, if the gravitational pull is strong enough to break apart the Hagane given enough time, then it doesn't make sense that it is capable of enduring energy from an imploding black hole. I don't think the energy is even remotely close to that of a quasar, but it is potent enough to vaporize anything that comes into contact. The island, the energy blew a hole in, is not a small island; it's quite large, and the light that emitted from the energy was blinding to obscure all vision from a 20km radius (at least). I'll calculate with a couple buddies or try a forum. It's still odd that the Hagane was still able to rip open a pocket dimension, and its speed is hard to determine because it could've catapulted using the grav pull.

Your brain is overdosed on tv tropes and non-existent genre requirements which don't actually exist in the shows you haven't watched.

>>22840720
Correct.

Super vs Real was made up by SRW and has never had any real relevance. Westerners just love the (entirely irrelevant) distinction because they are

1) autistic nerds who love genre stratification more than they love their own children and do not understand story structure at all
2) faux-realism obsessed redditors who divvy up media based on how much it HECKIN' LOVES SCIENCERINO BROS. If it's 'realistic' and 'theoretically possible' it's Real Robot and based. Otherwise it's Super Robot which is for kids (please ignore the overwhelming number of 'real robot' shows that end up having space magic by the end).

>>22841494
>Super vs Real was made up by SRW and has never had any real relevance
I think this was more about the shows being about giant robots beating MotWs vs military tweens' interpersonal drama featuring robot fights cuz war is bad and SRW just used it to have hard hitting tanks vs speedy dodgy boys

>>22841543
There might maybe be some use for the phrase if mecha anime was GENUINELY split between episodic monster of the week super hero shows and mil-sci soap operas, but the more mecha anime you watch the more you realize there's no such thing. Mil-sci soap operas frequently bring in episodic formats, introduce space magic, and whatnot. "Super Robot" shows often develop long running narratives or tie their robots down to weighty physics or lack any real supernatural or "beyond science" elements.

Basically the whole thing is maybe an aesthetic shorthand for "stuff that looks like it came from the 70's or that homages it" but as any kind of genre classification it's bullshit. Or even more retarded when you get nerds arguing power-level shit about whether x mech is super or real.

Dougram has the closest applicability to BT of the Unseen IPs I can think of, it's not as mechs-as-1st-class-citizen the way Succ Wars era makes battlemechs the final word in ground level operations but if you're a Raselhauger at heart you'll probably stand in solidarity with the Deloyeran independence cause.

One bedroom apartment. Shelf space is at a premium, but the HMM Zoids (at least the four-legged ones) are short enough to fit between the fridge and the cabinet above. It can be on display while occupying a space that your average Gundam kit couldn't go, so that's where it lives.

>>22838165
Not the OP and maybe I'm not up on my autistic genre definitions but what is it if not ecchi? It's not porn so it's not hentai, but it's definitely meant to be incredibly erotic with bouncing tits and ass on screen in revealing costumes 95% of the time, and an overall focus on romance.
