''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130404173015/http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2997974/1/Ilivais_X Ilivais X]'' (link is WAY behind, but it's not in a very presentable format anywhere else) starts fairly standardly, where Iriana Estchell, a [[The Ophelia|serenely disturbed]] and [[Older Than She Looks|childish-looking]] girl escapes her Aztec rulers in the eponymous [[Super Prototype|Ilivais X]], only to be captured by three members of the [[The Kingdom|Gaia Forces]]: [[Hot-Blooded|Mille Chanteau]], [[Friendly Sniper|Essen Dywell]], and [[Genius Bruiser|Sura Verandis]], who quickly become her main allies and her only friends (despite what she says).
 
The story is more focused on [[Character Development]] than mecha [[Stuff Blowing Up|blowing each other up]], and shifts in personal motivations are just as important, if not more so, than the outcome of battles. It's something like ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' or ''[[Space Runaway Ideon]]'' set in a ''[[Code Geass]]''-like plot, what with the robots being highly empathetic (while actually being robots) and the cast's dysfunctionality being heavily exploited. It can be seen as a [[Deconstruction]] of [[Real Robot Genre|Real]] and [[Super Robot Genre|Super]] robot traits, presenting a conflict between the two and their usual standards. It also has a large amount of anime flavor and takes a hell of a lot of cues from other mecha shows- if it's well-known within the genre, chances are you can probably find some element of that played with or referenced at some point.
