...and that wouldn't change the fact that it doesn't matter. The common denominator in mech shows is mechs. That's not a generalization, it's a preference. The very concept of a giant fighting robot doesn't interest me.

It becomes a generalization when people think the mechs are the focus of the show. They make up a significant portion of the interest, but they're not the driving point of what makes a mech show good.

Watch War in the Pocket or Gargantia.

Great, I say I don't like mech and you just assume I'm that guy that hates everything good. Not me though. I don't think I've ever outwardly expressed hate for any particular thing in anime.

Like I said, probably confused you with someone else.

Ooh I can do this too. Half of the people that like mech shows like stuffty anime.

What a loving ridiculous statement.

Comes from personal experience.

WAIT WHAT THERES A SECOND SEASON

It aired back in late 2012 :V

I was like you when I first converted. Ignorant to the true glory of little girls. But that was a long time ago.

But I don't want to. The existence of stupid giant robots is laughable to me. I don't enjoy watching robots flying around everywhere. I don't care if it's a good show that has giant robots or a good show about giant robots, I don't like giant loving robots.

And it's a generalization. The thing you supposedly hate so much.

Mechs are as laughable as every single fictional or fantastical concept that has ever appeared in anime. There's no reason that element alone should make or break a series for someone. That goes back to "people don't like things, deal with it", doesn't it? This is me dealing with it. It makes no loving sense to me, so I'm questioning it.

(and forget you I'm still recommending Gargantia to you because the "mech" of that show isn't too giant and is actually a character, straight up. watch that stuff.)

Don't ask me to explain why, but I can't get into the concept. I actually watch pretty few shows with unrealistic elements, so I'm not singling out mechs as the only fantastical concept I don't watch. It's not so much that I hate fantasy, cause I don't, but I tend towards things grounded in reality. Out of the 60 entries on my list, only 12 have some kind of supernatural or science fiction element.

i dont like mechs because i dont like most post modern tech in anime.
japan seems to only imagine 1 style of the future, and its been played out hard.

ChexGuy is a massive cunt not worth arguing with, listening to or taking seriously at all. He just constantly goes on like "lelelele this anime objectively sucks and you should feel bad for watching it!" and "this anime is awesome and if you don't watch it your taste is stuff!" It's seriously immature and it doesn't look like he's going to grow up at any point in the forseeable future, so I'd recommend just not giving his short-sighted arrogant ass the light of day.
