not enough Braves series on there

@redfirelight

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:44 PM

... I JUST SAW RATATOULLIE ON THERE LMFAO

@Okaamiii

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:45 PM

I'd probs put 86 right down the bottom of gritty though, god damn broke my heart - the world is so ruthless

@Okaamiii

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:46 PM

RATATOULLIE?! 🤣

Eva should be more super robot

@redfirelight

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:47 PM

it's in the top left

@redfirelight

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:47 PM

tiny tiny little picture

@Okaamiii

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:48 PM

OMG HAHAHA

@Okaamiii

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:49 PM

Does pluto count as a mecha cause their robots?!

or is mecha just like BIG robots

GAYVANGELION

@worldtype

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:50 PM

Also I'd move gunbuster down on gritty and TTGL up on pop

@Okaamiii

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:50 PM

OH YEAH! Guren Lagan all the way up to pop!!

GAYVANGELION

@worldtype

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 10:52 PM

TTGL being more put as more gritty than gunbuster baffles me

@Nerdorama

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 11:08 PM

Same. Likewise Geese being more Super than Zone of the Enders

@Nerdorama

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 11:08 PM

There's definitely like, a Spectrum in both, but Metatron is straight up magic

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 11:20 PM

uhhh i swear i have more thoughts- i think it'd be cool to slot the various gundams on here in comparison to each other but i haven't seen enough of them to do so

@Nerdorama

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 11:21 PM

They're all over the right and middle of the map tbh

@eternities

Wed, Jul 3, 2024 11:41 PM

FMP needs another position for "where Sousuke thinks it is" and it just moves straight down.

the lone nadesico liker has entered the chat

@liveralone

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 12:47 AM

I'm fascinated that it's somehow less pop than geass??? which I always forget has mechs lmao

@OddEyes

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 12:49 AM

...DOES ATTACK ON TITAN COUNT??? WHATS THAT DOIN THERE

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 12:52 AM

what is "pop"

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 12:56 AM

Gacha-Eyes : I mean I guess if Ratatouille counts as a mecha show AoT titans are just fleshy mechs

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 12:56 AM

It's really stretching it in a taco-is-sandwich way

Gacha-Eyes

@OddEyes

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 12:57 AM

pffffffffft

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 12:58 AM

more amused that apparently AoT titans are more "super robot" than Ideon, the robot literally capable of unmaking half of the entire universe

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:00 AM

Rama : also re the various Gundams, I feel like G is the only one that steps over into the Super Robot side of the spectrum, just enough to be noticed

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:00 AM

Like ZoE levels of "on the super side" if that, but still more than the rest of the franchise sitting right about where the UC spot there is

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:01 AM

(Turn A is a weird outlier there because the actual titular gundam is absolutely a super in-context but 99.9% of the suits there are incredibly real)

@Nerdorama

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:21 AM

Judau's brand of newtype bullshit and Crossbone's general tone are responsible for the UC rep in the middle third

@Nerdorama

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:21 AM

I'd also put 00 there by the movie at least

@Nerdorama

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:23 AM

CE is what happens when a director who's only seen the left quarter of the chart aims for something near the bottom right and misses

@Nerdorama

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:23 AM

I have no idea where it actually lands

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:24 AM

yeah most of this scans

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:24 AM

shinobi✷summer : excuse you i have a yurika journal

@Nerdorama

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:33 AM

Yeah Nadesico was also my first mecha show. I've spent the rest of my anime liker career watching other mecha shows so I could understand the jokes

@liveralone

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:45 AM

tutorials georg : HELLO?? THATS SO RAD

@liveralone

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:46 AM

that makes me so happy 😭 I love that program

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:47 AM

yeah i played her in airlocked and srwq!

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:51 AM

see i disagree with gridman's placement but mostly bc i think it's a false dichotomy

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:52 AM

like it very much is Like That but also it's fucking denpa.

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:53 AM

i think battletech can't actually be as cool and gritty as it wants to be because the setting is so bonkers stupid send tweet

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:53 AM

get aot off of here.

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:54 AM

aldnoah zero is dead center which is appropriate since the show has nothing to say

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:54 AM

uhhhh

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:54 AM

+1 on whatever's going on with gunbuster and ttgl

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:54 AM

yeah like aot is very "if evangelion counts this counts" but like. that's a massive spoiler

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:54 AM

eh

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:55 AM

i think eva inarguably counts just bc of the genre it's clearly working within

how about no

@noctowl

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:55 AM

I am shocked that big O is not on there

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:56 AM

honestly i'd put ttgl like. half-overlapping ggg and promare if it was me

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:57 AM

but i guess there's the tone switch there

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:58 AM

uhhhh dial macross further to the left probably, it being basically as real as patlabor feels Wrong

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 1:58 AM

sorry im on a tear now

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:10 AM

yeah true
i don't even like attack on titan but /shrug

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:10 AM

it's kinda like the mecha equivalent of the Corrector Yui line but in reverse

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:10 AM

i think i get what you're putting down with battletech, like it wants to be armored core but unfortunately, like... FASA sure had FASA brain and both battletech and shadowrun are astoundingly stupid in their eagerness to be gritty

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:10 AM

(the Corrector Yui line being a metric for magical girls as to whether something "counts" even when it's all explained with advanced technology)

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:11 AM

actually speaking about things being "counted" on how technically-true vs spiritually-true makes me wonder

we got fucking dunbine and aot here

forget symphogear where's fucking rayearth

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:12 AM

(don't forget symphogear, but like. it and rayearth are brothers in "magical girl series make the best mecha anime" mentality)

@liveralone

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:20 AM

how about no : SAME

how about no

@noctowl

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:21 AM

magic knight rayearth also being missing is weird but I guesssssss people can say that's a stretch

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:21 AM

generally the reference pools on this thing are. weird. to me

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:21 AM

Yeah, I feel like MKR is isekai with mecha elements (and light magical girl elements, but some people count it as a straight-up magical girl anime).

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:22 AM

But it does have mecha, so we can count it.

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:22 AM

it's mecha enough to be in two super robot wars games

@hexennacht

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:22 AM

no greater mark of counting than that

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:22 AM

yeah it counts at least as much as big o by the "in SRW" metric

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:23 AM

as much as IBO too

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:24 AM

which is just deadass a Gundam

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:25 AM

that said I will admit I was mixing things up when I called it magical girl; i mandela effect'd myself, it's just girls that are magical, not magical girl

@flare_sword

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:26 AM

i forgot it was one of the First Wave of isekai manga/anime alongside el hazard and fushigi yuugi

@jisusushi

Thu, Jul 4, 2024 2:26 AM

Eh, some people classify it that way. Some people also call Utena magical girl, whereas I wouldn't really, but.
