Recommendations Some Fun Mecha Anime

Any recent mecha anime that was fun. I don't need some grand space opera or something. Just a good mecha anime with good ol action scenes without all the drama most of them tend to tack on to them

 

Darling in the Franxx

 

I think the artist for To-love ru just started one. Good 'action scenes' ahoy.

 

Better wait for more episodes. The OP doesn't want drama and the anime is currently fill with "drama".

 

You have good tastes sir

 

Not new but full metal panic is good

 

Depends on what you consider fun.

Knights & Magic does have some comedic moments and it's amongst the newest

 

Majestic Prince

Already watched it but mediocre. Darling in the Franxx is a good anime but please no... What I want is around Full Metal Panic like. A good mix of action and comedy

 

For "fun" I'd recommend the Macross Series, and Gargantia. Maybe Basquash too.

 

Pretty much any Sunrise mecha anime

• Code Geass
• Valvrave
• Buddy Complex
• Any Gundam anime

 

Iron blood orphans? It is fun but not all that funny.

 

Just wait for season 3 of Fullmetal panic and code geas. Or you could try aldnoah zero. Heroic age is pretty good too.

 

Gargantia? ehhh.... the first half is pretty good but the second half builds up quite a bit of drama.

Im surprised people havent mentioned Heavy Object yet. Giant mecha/robots, great comedy and tons of action. It's very fun.

 

Full Metal Panic

 

Buddy Complex and Heavy Object are pretty straightforward fun with a focus on the battles.

 

It seems that you too are a man of culture.

 

Okay, to clarify. I'm looking for Mecha anime like Gurrenn Lagaan and Full Metal Panic. Not only have I already watched the most obvious ones that come to mind, I'm also sick and tired of seeing mecha anime making the idea of giant robots fighting unfun. As an example, everytime mechas are used in war where there is one character rambling on about the horrors of war is out.
Pacific Rim was fun, Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans was not. And Aldnoah Zero requires to many brain cells shut off to ignore the plot

 

Heroic Age (Personal recommendation)
Asura Cryin'
Tengen Toppa Gurren Langann (classic)
Nobunaga the Fool
Kuromukuro
Aquarion (there are multiple, independent versions, some good, some not really)
Scrapped Princess
Rinne no Lagrange
Vandread
Idolmaster Xenoglossia
Voltron (does this count as anime?)
Oban Star-Racers

To name a few that haven't been named yet.

 

Heavy Object actually kinda inverts, and sometimes parodies, that trope because Objects are seen as the "clean" method of waging battles and there's unofficial guidelines to accompany the 'clean wars'. That's compared to battles in the Northern European Restricted zone where Objects are banned and the place is a chaotic madhouse.
