Hey dudes,
I've never heard of a female mecha designer. Are there any (in Japan or elsewhere)? Short of that, anyone able to point out any mecha designed by women?

Fictionally, there's Marion Radom and Dr Wakeman off the top of my head.

Thores Shibamoto, kind of. Character designer for Trinity Blood and one of Nagano's proteges. Her stuff isn't technically mecha design since most of it falls under that weird category of Amano-inspired spiky goth people. But her art style is very mechanical, much like how Nihei used to draw his characters and settings. .
Clamp.

I dunno... the mecha designer for the TV series was Masahiro Yamane, and for the OVAs it was Naoyuki Konno. The character designs for the animes were credited to CLAMP ladies, so I'm not sure if any of the CLAMP ladies actually designed the mecha. :-/

Do they actually fight in their mechs in the anime. Don't remember them doing it in the manga.

I've seen comics that had gags of "Domoyo" and "Zakura", also one where Sakura summons THE HIGE and Turn A comes out.

In-universe, Gundam has some female mecha designer.
The mc is holding one in the pic for instance...
Then there is many of them in 0083 and SEED among others.
