We don't need to summarize the Eva units on this page, because we already have an Evangelion page. Better to just link it. 192.91.173.42 16:46, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Real" Robots

I think we need to explicitly state somewhere in the article that "Real Robot" doesn't mean that the robots are literally designs that would be functional and practical in real life, since very few "Real Robots" would be. 71.203.209.0 00:41, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of Real Robot shows

I'm not knowledgable enough to start such a list, but the entry for Super Robot has a list, and I think this entry should have one too! - Eyeresist 03:25, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Update: I have started a list of Real Robot shows in the article. Please add anything appropriate. - Eyeresist 06:56, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Someone removed Front Mission from the list but Battletech gets the OK? Big bobba the god 13:10, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Full Metal Panic

Only some of the robots are "real robots". While it is more militaristic than Gigantor and the likes, the Arbalest is still in many ways a super robot, it has it's own "character", and the power of the Lambda driver. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.239.7.2 (talk) 05:07, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

  • As noted in Super Robot, line between two genre is sometime blur. However, have character/personality doesn't prevent it from being real robot (the earliest real robot with personality , AFAIK, is Layzner from SPT Layzner back in 1985. It's only its Lambda Driver that truly an issue. However, by using "how they treat mech" method, it's clearly real robot show. At best, Al is Sosuke's "buddy", but it still not symbol of justice.

[edit] Computing?

Uhhm...Why exactly is this article part of WikiProject Computing? This is about a genre of anime, and has nothing to do with computing whatsoever!! WTF!? Cabbage-Sama 10:25, 27 February 2008
