Super Robot Anime suggestions? - Divisions by zero

I’ve seen Gurren Lagann (10/10), Code Geass (8/10), and pretty much all of Neon Genesis Evangelion + movies and rebuilds. Are there any other really good super robot anime? I watched Darling in the FranXX and had a good time til about episode 18 or so when it jumped the shark. At one point I tried and dropped Eureka 7, just seemed really childish? Might need a revisit, but the MCs being so young was strange to me. What other mecha shows are worth the watch? I haven’t ever seen a Gundam show, but did watch Zoids as a kid, hah.

The first season of Aldnoah.Zero plotted by Gen Urobochi is a fucking brilliant concept: Think Patlabors piloted by a genius vs high end Gundam fantasy mecha. The second season was meh though.

Speaking of Patlabors, the Patlabor Movie 1 and Patlabor Movie 2 both directed by the great Mamoru Oshii are really great.

It’s more like sentai tokusatsu robots (think the Mega Zords from Power Rangers) but SSSS.Gridman is a cool reboot of a vintage Tsuburaya (Ultraman) Productions live action show.

Along similar lines, Samurai Flamenco is another fun take on tokusatsu heroes, complete with a combining sentai robot, which admittedly only shows up towards the end of the only season.

Have to second Samurai Flamenco. It’s not technically a mech anime, but if Gurren Lagann was 10/10 for OP, there’s a good chance they’ll really enjoy it!
