>>23049018 She's synthetic, but not mechanical. She's the same as Hawken, who eats, shits and tries to fuck women. You're thinking of Aschen, who at least has mechanical limbs.
>>23056069 >Fan translation. Got it. Also she's mechanical and sturdy enough to get sandwiched between Domon and Ryouma's punches without taking any additional damage.
>>23062036 >Also she's mechanical and sturdy enough to get sandwiched between Domon and Ryouma's punches without taking any additional damage. Axel got in between them and survived despite only being a normal human so thatโs not much proof of anything.
>>23062583 I wonder if the novels/manga are better. The OVA was cute, sure, but I couldn't tell if the joke was just them going "wow, our premise is so silly we're going to play it completely straight", or if ARIEL being fundamentally useless was intentional or not.
>>23076982 Jokes on you. I want a mutually caring, loving relationship with robot girls.

>>23035145 (OP) Are there even any good robo-romances to read/watch? And I mean where its an actual part of the show and not just 2 lines spoken vaguely mentioning it.
>>23040230 >MMX/Z is generic despite defining the design trends >tvtropes speak Tourist, Drossel looks like the worst kind of common Medarot girly cannon fodder that got rejected on early design iterations.
>>23124871 Well yeah. The same way Lord of the Rings is generic. It defined the genre and because everyone is copying them it makes it seem a lot less special now than it was at the time.

>>23124871 Surprised he didnโt complain about Valsione too given that sheโs got a completely human looking face.
>>23123199 >>23134308 Well this looks fascinating - but I have no idea what mecha this is or what series it's from. In return for a source request, have a ladylike Zaku.
>>23185198 Chrono Eyes / ใฏใญใใขใคใบ A manga by Yuichi Hasegawa (the Crossbone Gundam guy), 6 volumes. Has a sequel called Chrono Eyes Glancer / ใฏใญใใขใคใบใปใฐใฉใณใตใผ at 3 volumes. None of that is in english.
>>23208576 Read it four years ago so my memories are foggy. Basically a bunch of weird shit from the jumping off point of EoE not turning into a huge clusterfuck. >Shinji more like a team leader >Rei has a bunch of clones that take an active role in the plot >Kaji gets brainwashed by SEELE and tries to restart HIP, I think he convinces one Rei clone to side with him? >Gendo is stuck in bubble released by Lilith where time works differently, I think he ends up having used the time to make an upgraded Unit-01 >Asuka is kinder/less tsun to Shinji >eventually she merges with her EVA, stuck at first, can eventually merge/unmerge at will? There's some cool stuff like a satellite cannon EVA, Shinji gets killed and reborn through Unit-01 IIRC. It's a fun/short read.
