It’s sad to see the proud Sgt. Aguado reduced to flipping burgers. Sure, he didn’t solve the Snowflake case and didn’t realize his Lieutenant was an escaped criminal dressed as a woman, but still…
Living here in jersey, fighting villains from afar…
If this is supposed to prove a mecha show with no gay stuff, I’m sure I can dig up some fanfic to argue otherwise.
That’s just Bergerac!
omg i forgot about this one.
A poor imitation. That’s clearly none pizza with up beef, not left beef.
Glad to hear the ancient tongues still spoken 👍
Gay stuff?
Shit maybe the reason I don’t much care for mecha anime is because I’ve never seen one that was even a little gay. Er… Unless FLCL counts as a mecha anime. 🤔
Same goes for sci-fi in general
“tHeY mAdE sTaRtReK pOlItIcAl”
680 episode seasons, from which only 3 episodes are not space Aesop’s fables.
That’s the problem when you find someone too stupid to even understand the analogies used to try and teach them. For someone it’s just the story of “stuff happening to a little girl bringing food to her grandma in the woods”.
Same folks who thought Colbert was a conservative commentator.
Ahh, my second boyfriend.
He was an idiot but tried to convince me I was the idiot.
I mean, you dated him.
Same reason I don’t think that highly of my exes
A show about big fighting mechs isn’t complete if the pilots aren’t gay and in love and hate each other and exclusively communicate through monologues of their ideals on the current political climate.
Battletech is basically all of that except gay. I’m trying to think of any gay characters in Battletech…Rhonda Snord? Maybe a couple of the clanners?
The human drama is the central focus, the mechs is just changing the set pieces.
there’s only so many plots.
For example: It’s a standard workplace love story exploring the ego and id. It’s just that the workplace is an underground base where some dudes are letting teenagers pilot alien hybrid mechs to bring about the end of humanity.
Mecha are useful in that they combine the “shining armour” and “gallant steed” of classic stories into a single object.
Heated Circuit Rivalry
What’s the original meme from?
This was a TV commercial for string cheese initially. It was I want pizza minus the bread and no tomato sauce.
It’s looks like You Can’t Do That On Television but I don’t think it is.
No, that still leaves underage pilots going into combat and suffering immense mental trauma.
Or you can take that out and backfill with 90s era pop culture satire. Megas XLR is a masterpiece.
I’d watch gay mechs fuck.
Japanese businessman: AHHHHHHH! On top of the corporate headquarters!?
What mecha story has gay shit? I’d like to watch it.
Pacific Rim. If two straight people merge their minds through a psychic bridge, they both become bigender and then it’s gay. Sorry, I don’t make the rules.
What happens if only one of the robits gets a roberection? Is that gay enough I don’t know how the cybersex is supposed to work my great aunt warned me about people like me
Look, it’s really simple. Master Chief’s suit has a fleshlight built into it and Cortana can control it. It’s called the autojacker. Read Fall of Reach, it’s all in there.
is that what they call jacking on to the matrix?
Now you’re getting the picture! That’s also where Handsome Jack gets his name from
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury
IBO too.
Most Gundam shows, Evangelion
Darling in the Franxx
The most popular recent one is Brave Bang Bravern.
Keep in mind Japan has heavy censorship so a lot of the “gay mechas” are implied and subversive theming instead of openly gay.
Squid in a schoolgirls ass is just fine and dandy but heaven forbid someone is gay.
Censorship rules always end up stupid because individual morality isn’t consistent and blacklists are never comprehensive
Well yeah, someone has to think of the children (and their apparent love of tentacles that is only matched by the intensity of their homophobia).
I swear on Char Aznabel’s big red Zaku, if they take the yaoi and politics out of my big ass robot shows, I’m going to drop a space colony on Australia!
And another one on Ireland.
And then retroactively drop one on the midwestern United States years before that totally happened despite nobody ever mentioning it.
How about Robot Jox?
Vassiiiiilllllyyyyy!
It’s robot fights instead of waging war? Like saying g gundam isn’t political
Post-apocalyptic is automatically political. Plus it is 2 opposing super powers. Sounds like a cold war that went hot.
Am in the middle of watching Gundam Origins.
Is that the one that feels like Char is recounting the story of 0079 but in a way that makes him seem way more cool and badass than he was?
LOL I’ll let you know once I get around to it.
