Top 10 Mechs in Anime


if the suit makes the man what does that
say about giant robot suits
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
ten mechs in anime for this list we are
ranking the actual mechs operated by
humans or alien pilots and not the anime
series the mechs are found in we’re
ranking these mechs based on their
visual appearance strength and
versatility and not the pilots or
factions they belong to well all I can
do is throw a few switches and hope for
the best I guess
number 10 Labour’s patlabor series
kicking off our list is this 80s Mecca
classic in Patlabor Labour’s our Mecca
that are piloted for the use in heavy
construction work and can be outfitted
as patrol laborers in service to the
police
humanoid in shape each labor comes with
a variety of specifications depending on
their usage for instance the standard
construction labor is equipped with
reinforced steel and aluminum while the
police and military labors are equipped
with a rather large arsenal of weapons
you definitely need to be skilled and
certified to pilot one of these bad boys
number nine the F 25 F Messiah
Macross frontier
this serves as the 25th anniversary
series to the original Matt Kraus series
super dimension Fortress macros macros
frontier is set 47 years after the
original and follows the new Macross
frontier interstellar colonial fleet
the newest variable fighter mecha unit
the VF 25 F Messiah is piloted by series
protagonist Altos alto men armed with
multiple cannons anti Basra warheads and
a custom sniper rifle the bf 25 F
Messiah is a major threat in the hands
of a skilled pilot invading aliens best
beware
number eight Varitek Robotech step aside
for the granddaddy of all Mex serving as
the main fighting instrument in the Robo
tech universe Varitek are a group of
mechanised infantry created by humans
using Robo technology what is that a
giant robot could be an alien invader
Varitek have come in a large variety of
models over the years but our favorite
are the ATS originals while the Varitek
may be a pretty straightforward mech its
versatility allows transformation into
three forms a humanoid gladiator esque
style a full fighter jet for high-speed
transportation or a hybrid of the two
versatility and speed yes please
number seven escaflowne the vision of
escaflowne
only the most powerful Mac’s can run on
magic fondant via blood packed with
protagonist van the king of finale ax
escaflowne is beautiful in design and
requires a dragon’s energist to operate
despite its disappointing combat
capability the energist also allows
escaflowne to transform into a dragon
mode for increased mobility
escaflowne has its own consciousness
choosing only the worthy of Kings to sit
in its cockpit this mech should not be
trifled with as it will draw it towards
towards any battle on guard
number six Big O the Big O
in paradigm city you never know what can
happen in this mecha series the titular
Big O is a massive black robot used by a
team providing negotiation services
around the city-state yes that’s just a
sort of logical app dogwoods file
controlled by series protagonist Roger
Smith Big O is armed with lasers and
massive arms for maximum damage when
Roger calls upon Big O and he comes
crashing through the ground Big O does
occasionally act on its own will most
commonly when team members are in danger
it never hurts to have Big O in your
corner number 5 nightmare frames Code
Geass Lancelot now launching why fight a
war with guns and blades when you can
have mechanized weapons of terror
created by the holy Britannian Empire as
weapons of war nightmare frames are
commonplace in the streets of occupied
Japan while there are a variety of
models and operation series star Lelouch
is personal frame known as Gawain
includes measures such as a druid system
to predict enemy movements and an array
of harkin canons for maximum destructive
potential is this it’s my lucky day
planning to conquer a country grab a few
nightmare frames to keep its populace at
bay don’t be worried yet another system
is operational
client number four Gurren Lagann Gurren
Lagann
who said that you can only have one neck
the titular Mecca in the Gurren Lagann
series Gurren Lagann is actually a
fusion of two mecca’s flying in as the
head and Guren as the body primarily
piloted by protagonists Simone and his
best friend can mean it respectively
you’re the head honcho aren’t you the
unit’s most notable skill is its
manipulation of varying sizes of drills
for use as projectiles or melee attacks
as well as a convenient energy shield
fun fact Gurren Lagann operates on the
sheer spirit of the unit’s pilots logic
what’s logic this is the power of
friendship we’re talking about chariot
number three
Evangelion units Neon Genesis Evangelion
if angels in baby earth how do you
propose to fight them live with mechs
based on angel technology of course
created by nerve the Evangelion serve as
Earth’s first and only line of defense
against the massive creatures that
attack Japan
unlike other entries on this list
Evangelion units exist as biological
cyborgs that utilize the mysterious 80
field to bring down the powerful angels
they’re also linked to their pilots so
the pilots feel pain whenever they’re a
violet steak damage what the Evangelion
units lack in firepower they make up for
in versatility dexterity and strength
number two Mobile Suit Gundam series
it doesn’t matter which Gundam series is
your favorite all of them feature a huge
variety of powerful badass mobile mech
suits while Gundams have appeared in
many forms over the years the rx-78 2
model has become the face of the
franchise
this model included beam cannons as well
as dual beam swords to take out enemies
in close quarters that doesn’t mean it’s
useless long-range as a long beam rifle
is all it needs Gundams influence over
the mecha genre will last forever
before we mechanize our top pick here
are a few honorable mentions number one

universe a mighty robot loved by good
