At what point does power armour stop being power armour and becomes a mecha?
>>
fucking lurk moar
>>
Power armor is considered /m/ already. You should be asking where the line between armor and power armor lands.

If you want to be specific

>it has a pilot inside it
otherwise it's a drone.
>the interface to pilot the mech isn't directly integrated into the pilot's anatomy.
if it's implanted, that makes the pilot a cyborg.
>substantially larger than the pilot.
if it's as large as the pilot and is 'hugging' their bodies, it's an exoskeleton.

anyways, read the AYNIK manga or the light novel. the anime adaptation is retarded.

kamen rider is /m/. make of that what you will.

power armor is armor with power.
next question
>>
>>23935460
all that you mentioned is /m/ because anything mechanical is /m/
>>
>>23935430
It’s more of a Venn diagram than a line.

If it's not armoured, it's an exoskeleton. The soft robotics suits in Spriggan are powered armour.

If it's worn, it's power armor. If it's piloted, it's a mech.

/m/ is whatever /m/ decides what an /m/ is because /m/ is a social construct.

all iterations of the jackets are power armor, with the exception of Edge of Tomorrow where the jackets are depicted as exos.

It's probably a matter of taste. I personally like it.

>stop being power armour
when it becomes helmeted faggots with spandex
>>
>>23938715
It's not spandex. It's a synthetic hydrostatic exoskeleton. you can literally see the it warp and even spurt out fluids after assimilated keiji slices through rita's jacket. It's as much of a power armor as any other power armor in anime

>At what point does power armour stop being power armour and becomes a mecha?
At whatever point you stop wearing it and start piloting it.
>>
>>23939426
define wear.
>>
>>23935430
A /m/iserable pile of secrets.
>>
>>23939565
>wear
>To carry or have on one's person as covering, adornment, or protection.
I.e. inserting your limbs into the limbs of the machine like you'd do into sleeves of clothing and manipulating it by that same exact means.
