What I've seen:
>Mobile Suit Gundam
>Zeta Gundam
>Votoms
>Votoms OVAs
>Gundam OVAs
>Gundam films
>Dirty Pair tv, film and OVas
>Giant Gorg
Loved MSG, Votoms, and Giant Gorg. Dirty Pair tv was okay but forgettable, movie was GREAT. Liked MSG, but didn't like Zeta, so I think I'll stop with the Guandams.
What should I watch next?
Macross should be an obvious choice to try next.

Not >>15162299, due to obvious reasons (like >>15162316)
>>15162278
>Macross
Macross as long as you can stomach really bad animation (which you can, given MSG got on the list).
>Gunbuster
Gunbuster is another obvious choice. How did you even miss out on that one?
>Bubblegum Crisis
Bubblegum Crisis, for more pretty girls set in an 80s sci-fi setting with lots of mecha heritage like Terminator or Blade Runner.
>Dougram
Dougram is a precursor to VOTOMS through and through. Plus, it's basically what spawned Battletech or visible mech cockpits styled after helicopters.
If you're in any way a fan of western mecha, you probably don't want to miss out on that one.
>Starship Troopers OVA
Starship Troopers is another timeless classic. If you haven't read the book and may be thinking it's all about Zergs and Imperial Guard squaring it off, let me correct you. Starship Troopers is the originator of real robo altogether. Gundams are called mobile suits because the stuff Rico uses in the book is called a mobile suit.
It has it all, it's beautifully animated and it is Japanese farewell to the author of the series who'd died the same year.

Mazinger

>series
I mean book*, damn.
Might as well throw out one more.
>Daicon animations.
They're delightful, they stand behind the inception of Gainax, they're super nerdy, super 80s and quite short so you can enjoy the laserdisc/VHS goodness during a short break.

Gotta watch the best anime ever made, Uchuu Senkan Yamato. I recommend the movie version though I think most of /m/ would say the TV version is better
>>15162598
are any of the movies good?
>>15162278
80s :
>Dougram
>SPT Layzner
>Robotech franchise (Macross, Southern Cross, Mospeada)
>Megazone 23
>Panzer World Galient
>Patlabor
70s:
>Mazinger franchise
>Getter franchise
>Robot Romance Trilogy
>Zambot 3, Daitarn 3, Trider G7 (don't know if it's subbed tho)
>Reideen (sub still no completed)
That's few example of course. If you dislike them just drop them.
>>15162278
Combat Mecha Xabungle.
It's not Gundam and hella goofy.
>>15164147
>>Patlabor
I think it's humanly impossible to dislike Patlabor.
>>15162299
Minmey a shit
