Patlabor, Votoms and King Gainer are the things that come at the top of my head.

>>13811201

Speaking of VOTOMS, there's also Gasaraki and the Starship Troopers anime.

KMFs are based loosely on, or at least follow the same design philosophy as VOTOMS.
KMFs also look like LFOs, specifically KLFs. Like the Sutherland is the same robot as the KLF.
Nadesico's Aestivalis line also are bigger than KMFs, but are still quite small and have treads which act as skates.

I thought that Votoms would be an ideal place to get my friend in to more mecha stuff.

He couldn't make it past the Woodo/Uudo/whatever arc. Apparently he couldn't stand the animation. Or the sheer frequency of which those biker gangs used that horn of theirs.

First off, nice dubs, second off it helped with my suspension of disbelief.
They weren't 18 meters tall like a gundam, they measured in at only about 6 meters. They were small enough to be used tactically, but large enough to handle tanks and boats etc.

They were the perfect size for nearly every job. They were almost believable.

I don't like the sky scraper mechs, especially when they are shown as being disposable (zakus!)
It's more believable that glorified power armor could be disposable..
Idk, it's just me.

I'm not a realfag or anything.. I like /m/ tropes, and I don't mind supernatural or fantasy stuff with my robots either. I just like the big power armor model of mecha

By assholes. Zeon clearly preferred the use of low-numbered, advanced, high-powered and specialized machines. The Federation used sheer numbers for when it came to mobile suits.

At least, as far as I can tell.

Nadesico is pretty okay I think. And the mech aren't huge. And it's funny.

Are there any other shows with mechs with that kind of organic look to them?
Or maybe shows with mechs that aren't necessarily organic but have a lot of nice rounded features and shapes

Define not fuck huge

Gargantia has only 2 mechs in it, but they're both pretty small.

If he wants psuedo military show him 08thms or some of the other shows in this thread like garasaki

>>13812000
He enjoyed 08th, as well at Stardust, even though he may have bitched about how the characters acted. He couldn't stand Al enough to get past the first two episodes or so of War in the Pocket.

>>13812028
judging from that he will probably like stargazer,macross plus,gundam the origin (if he doesn't mind CG) and possibly the code geass OVAs.
Are you trying to get him into the mecha genre or are you trying to get him into anime?

Not an ani/m/e but it's a human-size mecha.

>>13812052
Mecha anime. I admit, I myself haven't done too much more than dip my toes in the water of stuff that isn't Gundam.

>>13812123
I understand where you're coming from I didn't start branching out until I started watching macross and Eva after that I eventually be came a consumer of most anime genres.
You might wanna check out some of sunrises non-gundam mecha works since they give off the same vibes

>>13812144
I loved Big O, though it was yet another one my friend didn't like though maybe I should've gotten him to watch further than the firs two episodes and while it's more cape than mecha he loved the everloving crap out of Tiger & Bunny after I got him to give it a shot.

>>13812370
I actually loved the melancholic 1920's newyork feel of the earlier episodes.

I didn't dig the Mon-Soono's design at all, didn't look like they belonged on a surfboard. Too blocky and uneven. But I loved the Sutherland and Gloucester.

GM was better than every suit Zeon produced except for the gelgoog. Just because the Feds have a larger production base doesn't mean they emphasized quantity over quality. After all, the zeeks were still producing outdated Zakus and Doms until the war ended.

That's why I'm not a fan of space battles. It's hard to choreograph a cool fight that doesn't rely on missile/laser swarm dodging in an open area with no terrain or objects or anything to give a sense of scale and whatnot. Unless the mecha has some cool trick to it, most space battles more or less feel the same.

Ray hated Eureka because
1. Renton adored her and Ray knew he ran away from the Gekko because of how he was treated.
2. Ray was infertile and could not have offspring but loathed the reality that Eureka could at such a young age when she saw Eureka's children. (Even though Ray only saw Eureka's non-biological children call her mother)

>>13815125
Not quite. Ray hated Eureka because the radiation from the Summer of Love event made her infertile and she blames Eureka for it.

This is a false dichotomy. Fiction can do whatever the fuck it wants and as such often has mechs that are fuckhuge and still very fast. See: Shin Getter Robo

In fact, the slow lumbering type are pretty rare. I always like when they crop up though. Shows like this usually manage to make every single punch have incredible impact

the full metal panic arm slaves in the Light novel version are smaller they were around 8-10 meters on average in the novels and the Behemoth was the monster sized at 20 that needed the Lambda driver just to not collapse on itself from square cube law.
