I think the "game" section is rather out of place and has very little to do with mecha anime (it's a different medium from anime after all) it might be best to note influences on games like xenosaga etc. but mechwarrior is completely unrelated, the game subsection should probably be moved to the "mecha" article. It's obviously not a complete article but I'm not the one to complete it

I think the statement that Mobile Suit Gundam is "an anti-war series that is pro-war at heart" is quite unclear as to its exact meaning and could also be considered quite controversial. Given the size, breadth and popularity of the Gundam franchise it is probably inappropriate to make such a simplistic statement about its core morals. Also, it doesn't seem to serve any real purpose within the wider article.
The statement should perhaps be removed, or at least clarified and/or expanded on. Fearthehat 23:40, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
I checked older version and it confirm to be vandalism. L-Zwei 05:13, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
Image:Mazinkaiser.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Mecha article tocuches similar topics to this. -- Alexcalamaro ( talk) 15:27, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
No. If there would be merging, merge this into Mecha instead. Concept of mecha, as noted in both articles, preceed anime and currently use in many other media as well. L-Zwei ( talk) 02:56, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
I think this can work as a stand alone article, but the section on video games isn't appropriate, because the article should be about (Japanese) animation only. That section should be moved to its own article - Mecha in video games -, or merged to Mecha. Cattus talk 17:32, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
I've removed the games section. Will leave a note at Mecha.– Cattus talk 11:10, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
Should the trotmobiles from Steambot Chronicles (a.k.a. Bumpy Trot in Japan) be briefly mentioned? Invmog ( talk) 22:29, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

Mecha anime → Mecha (genre) — Short reason: consistency, Mech (disambiguation) & Yuri (genre). 96.240.34.47 ( talk) 17:49, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
Reasons why it should be moved is because it is indeed a genre, and a genre that doesn't limit itself to just anime, but also printed media and even live action series. Lucia Black ( talk) 16:12, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
