related Tag manlyMasculinity is possessing qualities or characteristics considered typical of or appropriate to a man. Typical characteristics associated with masculinity are: courage, a strong physique, competitive, strong willed, and a sense of honor. Very important for being considered masculine however is the ability to inspire respect from your fellow brethren and/or being perceived as a virile man by the opposite sex., manly tearsSomewhere down the line, it became the "norm" that boys don`t cry. The scenario does not matter; shedding tears is the ultimate no-no in terms of what you can and cannot do as a man (at least in the West, anyway). But there comes a time when a man`s emotions do get the better of him, and they pour forth - as prerequisite an impassioned speech may or may not be present - by cascading down his cheeks. These are what we like to call "manly tears". Extremely powerful. Not limited but often used in hot-blooded / super robot shows. Examples include Yuusha Ou GaoGaiGar, Getter Robo and Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. The opposite of manly tears are "girly tears"., mechaMecha in Japanese basically means mechanical things; everything from an electric whisk or a car to a spaceship or a robot. Here however we limit it to the more exotic things usually referred to as mecha anime: robots, whether controlled by a human or not, and their ilk., mecha pilotThis character pilots some sort of robot/mecha, be it a mobile suit or whatever else.

Giant robots are your life? You ride on a tank to work? And on weekends it's time for a little cruise through the galaxy with your new battleship?

Then this is the right place for you should be. A place for everything mecha, be it giant robots like Gundams or space battleships like the Yamato.

Geass has mecha, and Eva has "mecha", but I wouldn't call either of them a mecha show.

Gundam is a mecha show. Geass is a superpower show, and Eva is an acid trip.

So uh, is anyone going to add Eva or Geass?

post #33 by greeksot on 15.12.2013 08:04

It is a mecha show.

Code geass, sure.
Evangelion are technically not mecha ...

post #31 by CDB-Man on 13.12.2013 01:13

Code Geass and Evangelion should be added as related animes to this club maybe?

Watching some SRW videos on youtube, I'm fairly certain it is Banpreios, which certainly seems to kick a lot of ass.

And now I feel the need to play a SRW game myself.

That's a poster for Super Robot Wars @3, I believe.

Seems about right. Thanks.

Pink white one: Ideon.

Blue White Yellow one: Cyber Troopers Virtual-On Oratorio Tangram from Virtual On game series.

Blue, white, red: I think it's Daitarn 3.

The one behind GGG: it's either Dragonar, or the Mechanical King from YGH which I doubt XD

A pick again:



What are the:

-Pink white one at the bottom left (behind Freedom slightly)
-Blue, white yellow one in the bottom middle (in front of EVA-01)
-The blue, red, white faced one at the bottom right (in front of King J-Der's feet)
-The one at the very back behind Genesic GaoGaiGar

Alpha 1 and Alpha Gaiden are PS1 titles, Alpha 2 and 3 are PS2.
But of those I only have played Alpha Gaiden because it is the only Alpha game that is (fan)translated.
I should have made that clearer.

post #24 by greeksot on 01.06.2011 08:48

On your PS1? Maybe PS2?

Ah yeah I see my mistake.
SRW W had GoLion which I did not recognize as part of the Voltron saga.
And for the emulator I don't know, since I play everything on my PS1.

Demonbane and Transformers are most likely out of the question in a SRW.
Voltron and Exkaiser never featured in any SRW,
But the rest have all been in SRW's so who knows.
And based upon that list of yours the SRW Alpha games should appeal to you.

I'd love to see a SRW with G Gundam, Gundam CCA, GaoGaiGar, Dancougar Nova, Mazinkaiser, Great Mazinger, Getter Robo, Voltes V, Koutetsu Jeeg, NGE, TTGL, Voltron, Transformers, Gundam ZZ, Demonbane, Exkaiser.

Do I ask too much? :3

For most people it depends on the included series, which units they want.
Storywise they usually are a jumble of stories from the different series mixed together and most people just play it for there favorite units and strategical aspect.
Personally I really like SRW J's (GBA) lineup (Layzner, Brain Powerd, Dancouga, Full Metal Panic & Fumoffu (BONTA-KUN HELL YEAH), G-Gundam, Gundam Seed, Zeorymer, Nadesico, Mazinger, Combattler V, Voltes V and Tekkaman Blade)

post #18 by greeksot on 31.05.2011 16:28

Which Japanese SRW is great? Seeing vids on Youtube, Alpha 3 seems to be to become my favorite for including some of my favorite 'bots. But I'd like to know about the rest,

Yeah I know, I have 2 GBA games (Original Generation 1 and 2 imported from America) of them and a fan translated version of Super Robot Wars Alpha Gaiden.
Such awesome games, way more enjoyable than the anime I have seen (the original OVA and Divine Wars).
I really should start watching The Inspector soon.
And if there are more pictures that need identifying just post them and I will do my best.

PS: You know what is interesting in Japan the games are called Super Robot Wars, but the American versions are sold as Super Robot Taisen, because Super Robot Wars or something like that was already taken supposedly.

You're the man. I might check those out, at least the anime anyways. (Since it's a real pain getting some rare games. Translated, that is.)
