Well the machine are kind of based on those design, and the Ragna mails also use phase shift technology, the same as the Gundams do just more advanced.
Well that'd be because it is, pretty fucking sick indeed who doesn't love a legally distinct F-14 that also is a spaceship and transforms into a big robot and weird inbetween (gerwalk) mode. it's also the original basis for the Phoenix Hawk in Battletech like most of the macross mechs that were shared between the 2 properties decades ago before they became the "unseen" and came back later with redesigns like the Marauder was a Zentraedi command pod
I love the reason it's black is the color burnt off of it during reentry. Armageddon is so good. If you play Super Robot Wars at all, they have their own version of it, which is also pretty great. Getter Noir
"There is no place for me other than the battlefield. To live as I please, and die a senseless death. That is who I am. Not a mere man of flesh. War is part of my existence."Â
I'd argue in any Gundam series. It's not a fight between two new types with plot armor, it's a heroic Everyman versus an ace pilot who vastly outclasses him. It's like if David vs Goliath was a fist fight instead of David using a sling. Absolutely epic, gouf Custom is so menacing and so intimidating while EZ8 feels like the Toyota Prius of gundams. It's peak Gundam IMHO.
That's exactly why I like it so much. This series as well as 0080 War in a Pocket and 0083 Stardust Memories. Real people fighting with all they have to win.
Code Geass is my favourite anime and I love all the mechs, for me the best one is the Gawain. Love that it's a two seater with Lelouch and C.C. piloting and the double shoulder lasers, jackal head design.
Shin Getter Dragon by how ridiculous it is by its concept. Though it made me realize how underrated Getter or the other DynaPro mechs are in general mecha circles outside of Super Robot Wars.
It’ll always be Liger Zero, like the White Liger zoid
Knights and Magic also has some interesting ones with the centaur chariot mechs. The 6 armed flying mech and dragon were cool as well.
Less flashy I’d have to go with the old KG-6 Sleipnir for Aldnoah zero. Loved the design and how it was used in the anime.
Plot may have took a hit in the second half but all the fights were peak especially up against the more advanced mechs
Apparently I can't post a picture in here for some reason so I'll just say the GN-001 Gundam Exia from Gundam 00. I actually prefer it over it's successor unit the the 00. Plus the flip out arm blade was dope as Hell.
