      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.

          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.

      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.

      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.

    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…

    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. 🤔

      Or you can take that out and backfill with 90s era pop culture satire. Megas XLR is a masterpiece.

    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.

      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.

      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?

      Katherine Steiner-Davion (Victor’s crazy sister; not her grandmother, Actual Katrina Steiner) might be considered aromantic…or a psychopath, which I think is an overriding factor.

      I wonder if it’s more illegal to be gay in the Draconis Combine or in the Capellan Confederation.

      There’s a “rumored” lesbian love affair between Heather Durant and Terens Amaris which results in house Amaris ruling over the Rim Worlds Republic, teeing up her great x5 grandson Stefan to essentially ruin civilization forever. So that’s…kind of canon.

          It’s also a climate change allegory and there’s a stupid wall that doesn’t work.

        1980’s? Yes.

        2000’s? No. Full of politics. Government waste, spies, Area 51 coverups, discussions of the deep state and military use in civilian areas. One of the movies referenced wars in the middle east.
