when it all comes down to it, they're just giant robots

have you ever stopped to think just how many names there are for giant robots in anime? seriously, you can't have the same name in two animes! there's mobile suits, gundams, mechas, guymelefs, arm slaves (or AS's), battloids, transformers, evas, etc. etc. not only that, but just about each brand of giant robot has its own prodigy robot: wing zero, escaflowne, arbalest, unit 01, the list goes on. maybe i've just been watching too much anime with giant robots in it lately.....
