Amusing Observation...

[egarwaen]

Amusing observation of the day:

Modern mecha series (and by modern, I mean as far back as the early 90s, perhaps even going back to the original Gundam) frequently start with "there was an ecological catastrophe, and, then, mecha".

Partial list:

• Mobile Suit Gundam (all continuities, pretty much)
• Genesis Climber MOSPEADA
• Eureka 7 (arguable)
• Evangelion (*shudder*)
• Rah Xephon
• King Gainer
• Aquarion
• Brain Powered
• Fafner (at least supposedly, I didn't watch beyond the first episode)
• Stellvia
• Orguss
