For a cult classic Mecha try Neon Genesis Evangelion. One of the best "battle mech" series ever. Though it gets very trippy in the message and meaning towards the end.

I've been avoiding that series, since I've heard it doesn't really end with the ending.
I've seen a lot of people pissed and disappointed at the ending.
They say its a Gainax thing.


    Evangelion is the greatest anime series of all time.  The ending is perfect.  And it's definitely not a mecha series.  Mecha just happens to be part of the setting, but it has some of the best character development I've ever seen, and not only in anime.  Every character grows and changes a lot during the 24 episodes that matter.

     The problem is that Anno was rushed and he made the last 2 episodes suck 'cuz he was out of time and money.  That's why he made the movies.  You watch the 24 episodes, skip 25 and 26, and then you watch The End of Evangelion, and it's a spectacular climax that ties up all the loose ends.

    Or you can wait a few more months, because Anno just re-launched the entire series as a 4 film long series.  I highly recommend the 24 episodes and the movie.  He was just waiting until he had the time and money to end it right, and oh boy, he sure did.

 

 

 

Also, Great Teacher Onizuka is my hero.  Everything I've ever learned in life, I learned from him.  That's my other favorite. 

So I skip the last two episodes and head straight to the movie. Gotcha.
Evangelion it is then.

Ive already seen GTO. After watching the sucky anime ending I read the manga.
I usually dont want to let go of "open ended things" (used for a lack of word). I usually pursue anime I really like if it wasn't finished, no matter what medium the story goes to. Yes that means I actually played the FSN visual novel(some of you may know it as a dating sim, It's not something to be proud about >.<), and I also read the Berserk manga.

FSN is and probably ever will be my favorite series.
The story is just indescribably great.
And with Unlimited Bladeworks just around the corner im one happy man. ^^
