Moment of Awesome (Sugar Wiki)/Anime and Manga/Mecha Anime: Difference between revisions

Because [[Humongous Mecha]] are [[Rule of Cool|awesome all by themselves]], we had to split up the anime section of "Awesome Moments" just for them. [[Megas XLR|Chicks dig giant robots]], you know.

 

----

'''Examples''':

 

 

* ''[[Vandread]]'' has numerous moments like this, but because of the show's focus on [[Combining Mecha]] and [[The Power of Friendship]], many of them are shared between several people.

** Solo moments:

== [[Martian Successor Nadesico]] ==

* Ruri skirts this a lot, but she about tops herself for good when she wrests control of the ''Nadesico'''s computer from Nergal, then proceeds to hack into United Earth Forces network and lock down the entire base, trapping everyone inside, appearing on all their security screens in a silly-looking cat costume and apologizing in advance ("Please keep quiet for a short while") for good measure.

** But you can watch how it would have gone in some of the Nadesico-featuring [[Super Robot Wars]] games.

* Ryoko Subaru gets one in her first appearance by doing an [[Out of the Inferno]] moment, whilst towing three mechs, tied together with a white bow so that the Nadesico know that she's friendly. The fact that she does this despite not knowing if the rest of her [[Amazon Brigade]] are alive or dead... {{spoiler|they're alive}}

== [[Bubblegum Crisis]] ==

* Largo's confrontation with Quincy in episode 6, where he demonstrates what he can do with the [[Kill Sat|satellites]]. Quincy finally realizes Largo isn't human:

'''LARGO''': Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Largo. I am the maker of the new world. }}

* Also, the introduction of Priss' new Motoslave, where, shortly after Largo's hyperboomers destroyed the old one, pays them back in full by taking two of them out ''all by itself'' before Priss even gets ''into'' it.

* Strange as it may seem [[Mayoi Neko Overrun]] has something that belongs in this section; episode 7, ''The Stray Cats Rode'', it is an episode that amounts to an [[Affectionate Parody]] of the [[GaoGaiGar|Braves series]], complete with a new ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYx0e3cQC44 Opening Theme]'' by Yoshiki Fukuyama of [[JAM Project]], that even follows [http://fudoushin.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/rules.jpg the Rules of Super Robot Anime], [[Beyond the Impossible|right down to]] the [[Megas XLR]] ones.
