I love cute girly robots, but I hate that due to mecha being made and enjoyed mostly by moids, they tend to get drawn in perverted ways, especially when it comes to giant ones like Aphrodite Alpha and Nobel Gundam.
Does anybody else feel this way?

Was redirected here from the anime thread. I'm trying to get into Gundam and I really didn't like Unicorn and liked Wing quite a bit despite the rough first bit. What's another good series to try? I keep getting recommended Iron-Blooded Orphans but it seems a bit too edgy for my tastes. I'm partway through G Gundam and it's a good fun time.
Also the anon saying the Wing boys are mid is wrong, Duo is peak. I will agree that Domon is hot too, though. I bet Ryuko from Kill la Kill was based on him.

Shukou Murase, the director of the anime, stated in 2021 that the second part may not debut before 2024.>Lastly, regarding the choice of whether to go with 3D or 2D with Gundam anime projects, Ogata stated that while the recently debuted Mobile Suit Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance was animated entirely in Unreal Engine, it did not mean that something like Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway's mobile suit scenes would have the same style of production, saying that Requiem for Vengeance was made due to unique qualities that can be made in Unreal Engine, and 2D production methods are chosen for its unique qualities as well. Ogata added the company would continue to develop its 2D capabilities in mecha animation and human character drama.https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2024-10-28/gundam-franchise-to-actively-develop-au-works-leading-up-to-2029/.217221 No. 430762
