rynet_iiOnes that I've actually heard of, anyway.
Brave Police J-Decker. I actually watched some of this way back in my TFP fandom days: Since the giant robots are actual characters in this show rather than fancy vehicles, as they are in most giant robot animes, it got the TF fandom's attention. Anyway, I remember it was cute and I should get into watching it again someday. It's about a boy who accidentally makes a police robot sentient through the power of love and eventually winds up running a squadron of sentient law enforcement giant robots.
Macross 7. Okay, I don't know what Macross 7 itself is about, but apparently it's a collection of vaguely related continuities about humans fighting against aliens with 1) giant robots and 2) the power of J-Pop and 3) LOVE TRIANGLES.
Magic Knight Rayearth. Didn't see the anime or manga or anything, but I know it's a CLAMP series and I once read an LP of the JRPG adaptation. Trio of teenage girls get transported to fantasy land, get tasked to rescue princess from evil overlord, really nasty plot twist in the end where it turns out that the princess and the evil overlord were mutually in love but the Princess summoned the trio anyway to get involved because she isn't allowed to fall in love because it'll magically damage the world if her mind isn't on prayer ALL THE TIME or whatever and anyway I think she dies in the end? After trying to kill the trio for killing the overlordish boyfriend? I forget.
Marmalade Boy. Teenage girl's parents get divorced and marry teenage boy's parents and all live together in the same house as one big polyamorous thing, teenage girl's new stepbrother is super brooding and she falls in love with him. Kind of avoided this one after hearing the plot premise because stepsiblings in love hits too close to my "ew incest" button.
Mobile Fighter G-Gundam. Similar to Macross, Gundam is a series of series about humans fighting wars with giant robots, which are all part of one big continuity. Less singing and love triangles (I think?), more highly depressing Kill Em All endings depending on the mood of the guy who directs most of these series and clones of a guy called Char who's like some kinda antihero with a dumb mask. There's a girl called Relena Peacecroft in one Gundam series who's a pacifist and stereotypical fangirls apparently dislike her for being girly and the love interest of a guy called Heero Yui or some such, when they prefer shipping Heero with this other dude. Relena and Heero probably aren't even in Mobile Fighter G-Gundam.
FUCKING SAILOR MOON CLASSIC.
Man I was a big fan of this show when I was watching the DiC dub on YTV as a tiny, but as an adult I can never quite get invested in any of the variants I try watching? No idea why.
