It's 2020 and you would think this would be prime season for
Mecha but unfortunately the genre as a whole has died off in the
2010s where it has only become all but a small niche.
Mech anime has been replaced with a genre rather familiar to
it but different enough to well, be something else entirely. This
is where anthropomorphic anime comes in. Usually it involves girls
but sometimes boys are also part of this where they are
anthropomorphized into a battleship, tank, and other military
machine. This isn't the genre that I'm referring to.
The Mecha genre that I am writing about is the classic Mech
Warrior or Gundam if you will. A giant robot that is piloted by a
human be it a machine or some sort of advanced type of system like
Escaflowne's biological Mech Robots.
I love Mechs and I am very proud of this! I hope that Japan
will continue to tailor to us few whom remain in this very niche
genre.
