I have a friend who recently saw TTGL and is still droning on about how it's the flagship of the mecha genre.
I want to recommend him some tasteful shows, but quite frankly I'm still a bit new to /m/ myself. The only show I feel confident recommending is Gundam 00. What shows are considered tasteful? The highlight of the franchise, or the entire genre for that matter. The best of the best?

70s and 80s era mecha tv shows dude. A civlized time, when men were men and women were women. And each one knew their place.

But Stainless Night is literally just porn.

00 is shit. Literally go watch some shows yourself before you try to cut your friend down. I recommend Giant Robo.

>>15038247
Better, but it's still putting fleshbags above robots.

I have this one too but /m/ doesn't see to like it much.

Well show him Getter Robo Armageddon for a replacement for TTGL.

But you need to get him into good 80s real robot shows, pronto. Just pick your favorite ( assuming it does'nt require viewing something else to make sense) or which ever of them you think would be most appealing to him.
>>
>>15038251
>00 is shit.
No.
>Giant Robo
Meme OVA with a plot built on a convoluted misunderstanding.
>>
>>15038187
Not a highlight of the franchise perhaps but Dougram is always nice.
>>
>>15038254
No, you fucking idiot, both of those are actual recommendation charts, just with out-of-context screenshots. They're all genuinely good shows to watch.
>>
>>15038187
Fuck off and let your friend enjoy himself. He doesn't need some faggot whining about how he's liking the wrong anime.

Also nice to see you parroting the "TTGL is for casuals" shit when you yourself are a massive newfag.
>>
>>15038201
>I don't want gayshit you homosexual.
Then why are you friends with a TTGL fanboy?
>>
Show him Gunbuster!

>>15038289
>actual recommendation chart
>Rinne no Lagrange
>Captain Earth
>Strike Witches
>Nanoha
>Jinki Extend
>Total Eclipse
No, >>15038247 at least is a joke chart that includes terrible shows or decidedly not /m/ shit like Nanoha just because it has yuri scenes in it, or else it's a serious chart made by some delusional moeshitter like which fill our cancerous "Symphogay General."
>>
>>15038187
>ugh my friend likes TTGL what a casual amirite
>btw recommend me some anime because I'm new :)
Huh, really makes you think...
>>
>>15038187
I wouldn't try pushing anyone who thinks TTGL is the best /m/ to watch anything else. same thing with evangelion fags.

just let them be, it's impossible to fill a full glass.
>>
>>15038201
>I don't want gayshit you homosexual.

Tell your friend to come here. We will recommend him the right type of anime.
>>
>>15038447
On the contrary, the glass is empty
People think TTGL is the best mecha thing ever because their base of comparison is shit like Avatar and Bayformers. Even if they have watched a "classic" that somehow made its way over here (Gundam Wing, Macross Plus), those shows tend to be a lot more dour and boring than your typical hot-blooded manly robot show. I know I'd take Shin Mazinger over Dougram any day of the week.

>>15038348
This. An alternate title for Gunbuster should be "How to Become a Mecha Fan in Two Hours"
>>
>>15038496
>This. An alternate title for Gunbuster should be "How to Become a Mecha Fan in Two Hours"

and then be delusioned for the rest of your life since no other mecha anime has ever attained the emotional heights of Gunbuster. No no, for a newbie Gunbuster or Giant Robo are not to be recommended from the outgo. Some standard hot blooded robot series are good. Then some semi-realistic shit like Patlabor, maybe Gasaraki. After maybe 20 tv series of robots fighting (real or super doesn't matter) then and only then can you recommend them the real heavy hitters.
>>
>>15038608
Emotional heights sounds just like something that would appeal to a newbie. It's when you watch more of the genre you learn to appreciate it for what it is. And you should know that mecha is for the robots or else what in the world are you doing here.
>>
>>15038608
Gunbuster is extremely entry level, what the fuck are you taking about?
>>
>>15038447
>>15038496
Really it's more like the person is claiming there glass is full of wine when in fact it's full of juice. You may want to fill it with actual wine and educate them but, at least for now, there's no space in the glass. Until they themselves empty out that glass some you just gotta leave them be, just let them enjoy their juice for now.
>>
have some fun and watch Mazinger Z Impact. That's a good intro to Mazinger and overall hot blooded insanity. Either that or Gaogaigar. Next take a step further and watch Gunbuster to take things a bit more mature and character driven. I recommend Macross 1983 as well. Then take out the big guns and smack em with 00 and Layzner. And to top it all off break out Evangelion just to fuck with him. Then Gundam. All of it. Even the bad stuff
>>
>>15038608
I watched Gunbuster shortly after I became a mecha fan, and while little has come close to topping it, it hasn't put me off from other shows because of that. Different shows are good in different ways.
>>
>>15038187
Who cares, let him like what he likes. Not everyone has to be interested in mecha as a genre.
>>
>>15038187
TTGL Is my all time favorite anime but its far from the flagship of the mecha genre. The reasons its one of the best anime of all time have nothing to do with the fact that it has super robots.

Since this is a reccomendation kind of thread I'll pose a question I'm hoping theres a suitable "meme image" with a bunch of different games macro'd onto it.

I absolutely LOVE Armored core but HATE super robo games that are all flash and no substance, Which sadly a TTGL videogame would likely be. Can you reccomend me some good realistic mecha games?
>>
Getter Robo, tell him it's the main inspiration for Gurren Lagann.
Mazinger Z, Getter Robo's friend.
Gunbuster, Gurren Lagann's badass grandma.
Evangelion, Gurren Lagann's depressed emo older brother.
GaoGaiGar.
And obviously Mobile Suit Gundam.

Why do you insecure y/u/rifags have to post your cancerous garbage out of your board and ruin every single anime topic on the other boards on 4chan now, all day, every day?

how the fuck are you going to tell me that the main inspiration for TTGL wasn't GGG final

>>15039665
Because the two have almost nothing in common other than having Nobuyuki Hiyama and other loud men screaming about things in large scale robot space battles?

Meanwhile TTGL rips off Getter Robo Armageddon's setting almost beat for beat
