Top 50 Best Mecha Anime Of All Time

 

When Anime has every genre that people would love, then why not mechas? Haven’t heard of the name already?

 

Here’s a small introduction to mechas and their history: Mecha is one other genre in Japanese comics or manga.

 

It involves everything mechanical. Do the stories revolve around robots, androids, and whatnot? These anime can go to the extent where they turn living beings into mechas.

 

But still, the main focus is limited to bots. Just after the second world war, when Japan hit massive technological growth, this was the time when the anime world also started to grow a passion for this genre.

 

When people saw humans doing great things with their superpowers, this was new to the audience.

 

Slowly, this anime was being liked by people. It started to interest them with the scientific and factual content it contains.

 

The first-ever mecha was telecasted in the year 1966. Later, several mecha anime started to air, and below given is the current list of mecha anime that are liked and watched frequently by the audience:
