Patlabor was cool enough, but honestly, a lot of that stuff blurs for me. I'm just not a big mech, guy. I’ve seen many a show, but I can’t tell you what happened in any of them. The only invested mech interests I’ve ever had were in what has become known (stateside) as the Robotech trilogy – not even TF, well, outside of Shockwave, of course. However, since early childhood, I've very much been a giant quasi-spiritual/god-robot guy: Tetsujin 28, Force Five/Starvengers, Voltron, Takegami, Tranzor Z, Giant Robo, E.V.A. etc (even Mighty Orbots). I haven’t collected a toy robot line since Fewture’s AD Mazinger and that was a result of…well, they were/are SICK looking…but my collection of Fewture’s Devil Man figs naturally took me there. My manga and anime interests revolve around an eclectic mix of oni/tengu/demons (Devil Man, Demon Prince Enma, 3x3 Eyes, Doomed Megalopolis, Wicked City, Berserk, yadda) , fantasy (Record of Lodoss War, Gantz [yes, Gantz], Fate Zero, Guyver – oh, Lisker…so funny), and martial pugilistic matters (Crying Freeman, Fist: Hokuto no Ken, Ninja Scroll, Basilisk, Dog Soldiers, Baki the Grappler, Samurai Deeper, etc). That's not even factoring my feature length interests like Lensmen, Akira, and so on. Most of my faves skew old – no surprise, I’m a grown man - but I like some new stuff…of the non-mech variety. Not that mecha doesn't have its place.
