Which is better /m/: Super Robots or Real Robots?
>>
super reals and real supers
>>
>>15473347
This is an opinion-based question not worth asking because there is no definitive conclusion.

Depends on the series.
Also Dai-guard.

>>15473347
They both have pros and cons; there is no "better" one. I personally prefer reals though.

What's the difference?

super real robot

>>15473534
The difference is whatever the viewer's personal autism tells him is the difference. /m/ has never reached a definitive conclusion as to what these two terms mean and never will.

At least we can all agree that the Gundam is a super robot in a super robot show, right?
>>
>>15473534
If it has low armor/high dodge it's a real robot, high hp/armor low dodge = super robot. And I'm not a robot according to reCAPTCHA.
>>
>>15473534
If the protagonist has plot armor and can survive anything: It's a super robot. If reality ensues, and characters die or get injured while piloting a robot, it's a real robot.
>>
>>15473797
Explain VOTOMS and Dougram. Explain Ideon and Bokurano.
>implying you're not just shitposting
>>
>>15473797
Nah, plot armor is for real robots. Super robots just have strong armor that can take the punches. It's more about super robots being super heroes while real robots are military equipment.
>>
>>15473833
what if theyre both

Crinn is Wiseman's original form, Chirico is spoilers.

It's a super robo show if they sing the robot's name in the opening song

Real Super Robots > Super Real Robots
>>
>>15473347
In a fight, most Super Robots are gonna trounce Real Robots.

If you're asking which is more entertaining, that's personal preference. Though I do enjoy things that tow the line, like Pacific Rim or Big O.
>>
Upgrade the mobility stat for your reals and the armour stat for your supers.
>>
>>15474037
what's the main difference?

real super robots would be getter?
and super real robots would be unicorn gundam?
>>
>>15473833
so where does that put FSS mortar headds?

they can travel faster than light and blow planets apart, but they're also just machines
>>
>>15474720
Context of the universe it sits in is important. In Combattler V, the robot is a super-special robot. It's not part of an army, there's nothing remotely like it. If FTL and planet destruction grade weaponry is somewhat available it's probably real robot; this isn't cut in stone obviously, trying to shoehorn in two robo genders is what binary white male otaku scum does.
>>
>>15474956
Makes more sense for someone's crazy uncle to build a giant robot than the military.
Mazinger confirmed more realistic than Gundam
>>
>>15474713
i think mazinger is more of a real super than getter

Thanks for introducing me to that shit. I didn't know I wanted medieval robots.
>>
>>15473797
I guess Getter is real robot more considering the amount of dead pilots and that just piloting the Getter has made pilots spit up blood from G forces fucking their organs
>>
>>15476846
How many people die has nothing to do with what a real robot actually is.

I'm frankly tired of people confusing realism with grittiness.

>>15473347
>hich is better /m/: Super Robots or Real Robots?
>>15473347

The difference is artificial and meaningless.
>>
>>15474713
Or
Real Super = Big O
Super Real = Jehuty

I know I'm pointing out he's an imbecile since by his rules one of the flagship super robot series would be considered real robot. I do the same when you have retarded people saying mass produced robots means it's real, because then I link this.
>>
>>15476854
What does realism have to do with giant robots?

I'm frankly tired of people confusing military dressings with realism.

>>15477240
Big O and Jehuty are just plain super.
>>
>>15477258
It's not just mass production that makes robots real, it's about how common giant fighting robots are.

In Gundam, mecha are treated as normal weapons like a gun, plane or tank. In Mazinger, mecha are rare and amazing. Arguably, in Getter Robo mecha are treated as normal weapons too.
>>
>>15477275
Big O is/was a mass-produced military weapon, if those dream sequences/flasbacks are to be believed.
>>
>>15477289
As a backstory, sure, but in the actual Big O series the three robots are rare superweapons.

I find super shows more fun to watch, then again. I got into /m/ stuff through Mechwarrior all the way back so I also had to get over the phase where anything even remotely resembling fun was instant 'unrealistic' garbage.
>>
>>15477281
>It's not just mass production that makes robots real

Well then Gundam is out. 0079 is the story of Amuro piloting a PROTOTYPE (as in 1, fucking one unit, not mass produced) giant robot against PROTOTYPEs Zeon mobile suits/armors. How the fuck can anyone thing this is real robot genre ?

But but but people will say, Gundam can be hit, it has to be serviced etc... Well so can Mazinger Z.
>>
>>15477416
You have zero reading comprehension. Actually, just try plain ol' reading the post before replying.
>>
>>15477426

In Gundam, mecha are treated as normal weapons like a gun, plane or tank. In Mazinger, mecha are rare and amazing. Arguably, in Getter Robo mecha are treated as normal weapons too.

How the fuck is the Apsalus a normal weapon ? How the fuck are Zeon prototypes (Zeong, Zakrello etc...) mobile suits/armors normal weapons ? Each time Sunrise shits out another UC episode it has UNIQUE prototype mobile suits/armors. Mass produced shit doesn't even enter into the equation man. So fuck those that say that Gundam is realistic. Realistic my ass.

>Bokurano

Super HUMAN show :^)

>>15473833
>Plot Armor is for real robots
Wrong. Plot Armor is for the humans piloting the robots. If the pilot survives the entire show, it's a super robot show.

>>15476846
Getter is a real robot that uses hotblood and courage to power it.
>>
>>15477479
>Getter is a real robot that uses hotblood and courage to power it.
No they use getter reactors
>>
>>15475668
In what way, if you don't mind me asking?
>>
>>15477588
Getter reactors are full of Getter Rays. Getter Rays are the source of life. Life = courage = hotblood. So I'm right. You lose.

>>15473534
It's super if the pilot yells out the names of his attacks.
Anything else is real.

No. Gaogaigar is a Super Robot. Getter is a Real Robot. Learn the difference.

I sexually identify as a nonbinary robot-fluid Go-dam.
>>
>>15473347
trick question, they're all super and none of them are real
>>
Oh look, it's this argument again.

Quit trying to put definitions on "real" and "super". As you can see, attempting to pin the terms down with precise meanings just leads to shitstorms of frothing autistic rage.
