>Blatantly walking it back, you can sniff out a patlabor 2 only fan from a kilometer away. You like it and you don't even get why.
the nicest thing I can say about Patlabor's mechs is that they do work to build their credibility in the setting. And then they cash in all that credibility to give them retarded giant Colt Pythons instead of integrated weapons.

Just another reason why Western mechs and Western writing are better \/o\/
