Some powerfully executed mecha and sci-fi anime! If you're in for some action, drama, and some political, psychological, or philosophical subject matter, these are good anime recommendations. Please, give them a watch.

Will add more depending on new releases.

The mecha genre is specific to the anime medium, for the reason that what once started from an interesting concept, over the decades and the various artistic interpretations it had gone through, did managed to reach it's full development and thematic recognition.

It's origin can be traced way back to the end of World War 2, and the notion of the general populace at the time, that the technological breakthroughs, and their further usage to help and safeguard mankind are the way that we should develop as a species, so that's when the bipedal metal giants were born - a figures with humane limbs and features, that are controlled by a person and which allows them to wield this overwhelming power in service of a greater good.

In this interest stack, I've presented the ways in this genre had changed, and the specific shows which had major impact upon the development of the mecha as a concept, and the ways it had branched out of the established norm for this genre exploring a broad spectrum of themes. The order of the shows is in chronological order, since that way the slight alterations and changes can be presented in more simple and efficient manner.

people tell me I have weird tastes. But I enjoy a good amount of series. I also watch alot that others havent seen, so I wanted to compile some good ones I have enjoyed that many may have not seen.
Some of these people have seen, but I feel like I rarely hear them talked about.

A collection of depressing anime. Some of these shows are very dark and full of psychological tension, contain strongly depressing themes or just leave you empty inside. Enjoy!

Neon Genesis Evangelion is widely considered one of the most influential anime ever made, and a multitude of series were created to follow the leader, copying from its premise, characters, aesthetics, themes, and any combination of the previous. Here's some anime that can be considered to be EVA clones. Note: Some series that, in contrast, inspired EVA are included at the end.

Anime that lists Shouji Kawamori as Mecha/Mechanical Designer. Several sources outside of MAL such as Anime News Network and his JP Wikipedia page were used to make this list.

If an entry has more details than just "Mechanical Design", it will be noted on the first line of the description. Any entries listed within any descriptions will be note the extra details right after the closing parentheses, if not its simply listed as "Mechanical Design".

This list will move several entries into the description when the stack becomes full.

me if there are mistakes or additional anime that lists him as such.

This stack is for forgotten or obscure original anime that somehow fit the following criteria:

* Lack of contemporary interest, even if the show had some hype during its time on air.
* As far as possible, a completely finished story within one or two seasons.
* Relatively recent shows are allowed if their talk has already died after a few seasons.
* Have at least some value or interest, and not just be forgotten anime without a source.

The purpose of this stack is to introduce people to perhaps little-known, but interesting for at least one viewing of the original anime. Especially if I personally, the author of the stack, consider them interesting at least at the premise level or some moments. Therefore, I also tried to leave comments next to each anime, expressing my thoughts about the possible pros, cons, and reasons for the loss of attention to the show.

I'm mostly interested in dystopian cyberpunk, but why not throw into some mecha and aliens in the mix.

A direct attack on the viewer's psyche!
A masterpiece of depressing anime that you should watch until the end!

We have collected and looked at anime that seem to depress you when you watch them.

We recommend that you watch them on days when your mood is stable enough not to get depressed, or on days when you dare to feel like hitting rock bottom.

If it's too hard to watch, drop out in the middle of the day.

Sometimes, you may want to watch such an anime.
