Any mecha recs for me? I am kinda at the limit of good stuff of other genres. Code geass, og macross, ttgl, nge are like all the mechas I have seen and avoid them mainly because big long franchises and completionist personality which makes it impossible to just watch macross delta with cute girls, but I have to start with old ass macross, which was fine but you know...

    Mobile Suit Gundam:

    • Iron Blooded Orphans - Orphans employed by a PMC manage to seize control of the company and fight for themselves.

    • The Witch from Mercury - Country bumpkin goes to fancy space school where students gain standing and settle their grievances in mecha duels. Also yuri.

    • 00 - A mysterious organization seeks to end all war on Earth by fighting with their fancy robots.

    Note: While the Gundam IP is huge, the ones mentioned are spin-offs and can be watched separately of other Gundam series.

    Other:

    • 86 - The Republic fights against a mechanical empire using their own mechs which are totally autonomous and definitely not piloted by undesirables.

    I second 86. Had me in tears of sorrow once and (much more shocking) tears of joy at one point. It might be the only anime to have achieved that.

    Edit: just went and watched the part I was talking about and holy smokes what a good show. Looks like it’s time for a rewatch.
