I’ve seen Gurren Lagann (10/10), Code Geass (8/10), and pretty much all of Neon Genesis Evangelion + movies and rebuilds.

Are there any other really good super robot anime?

I watched Darling in the FranXX and had a good time til about episode 18 or so when it jumped the shark.

At one point I tried and dropped Eureka 7, just seemed really childish? Might need a revisit, but the MCs being so young was strange to me.

What other mecha shows are worth the watch? I haven’t ever seen a Gundam show, but did watch Zoids as a kid, hah.

    First off, I’m gonna say Eureka 7 is a show that gets better as it goes on. Consider continuing it. Also, I saw that someone was recommending Brave Bang Bravern which is a favorite of mine. If you want something a little more classic though definitely check out Gunbuster (also known as Aim For the Top). It’s only 6 episodes and it’s some of the coolest stuff I’ve ever seen. Really good depiction of time dilation.

      Agree with Eureka 7, it’s a little on the slow side, but when it hits, it hits.

      Extra agree with Gunbuster as well as its follow-up Diebuster. Both fantastic shows! Two of my favorites.

      Also, the original Mobile Suit Gundam, Zeta Gundam and Char’s Counterattack are also great if you stick with them. The original show is a little slow at the start, but gets better and better until the end! Zeta is fantastic throughout! CCA is weird and edgy, but cool.
