What are you playing at the moment?

[Lumina]

Yes please! Can you PM it to me?

[PringlesXD]

Yep! Sending it now!

[Peytral]

If you like PSOne Classics, we'll be getting Vanguard Bandits tomorrow on the PSN Store.

Oh hey, that's that one game I was supposed to get because BACONBACONBACONBACON YES GIANT ROBOTS

[PringlesXD]

Giant robots... why don't I like them?

[Peytral]

Why don't you like them?

Like, as a mecha fanboy, I really can't comprehend the notion of not liking giant robots. Even when I didn't like mecha, I still liked giant robots.

[PringlesXD]

They're boring... probably because Power Rangers ruined them for me.

[Ivy]

I uh... yeah, I don't get that. I try to be as open-minded as the next guy but... how?


BORING? Oh man, I don't get you. ): No hard feelings <3

[Gintoki]

Is this bizarro world? : /

[PringlesXD]

I don't know, they're just unappealing to me.
Except for Martian Successor Nadesico, I absolutely love that show.

[Peytral]

Nadesico was pretty great. Especially the insane amounts of mood whiplash.

But yeah, another reason I don't get it is since "mecha" is a pretty broad genre, and half the time I end up watching a mecha series more for its characters and gratuitous amounts of HOT BLOOD than its machines. The giant robots are just a nice bonus.

I mean, I know some people who seem to just absolutely hate the concept of giant robots, and that mentality seems to lead to a lot of bias against the genre. I've heard people call the genre "boring" (not one has been able to give a sensical reason how) while others seem to just generalize that all mecha is just mindless violence.

I don't really get it. :U

BUT, I'm glad that a lot of mecha fans seem to visit this forum. On another forum I go to, a majority of the members just seem to have no interest whatsoever in it.
