A fun extra level of silliness, for those not familiar with Tengen Toppa, is that many of those Gurren Lagann mechas are piloted by the previous smaller variant. It's not a pilot in a giant mecha, it's a mecha piloting a mecha piloting a mecha piloting a mecha piloting a mecha piloted by a pilot. Like a hilarious case of stacking Russian dolls. The show has no restraint. It just revels on repeatedly escalating things.
It's works pretty good for the 27 episodes that it has. Also every new mecha GATTAI! Is better than the last one. It gave me the same chills of super Saiyan one transformation, sannin mode and all the power rangers together. If you give a chance you'll see
I love the ridiculousness of how the galactic sized ones are so large that they'd never find a surface to walk on, yet they were made with two legs anyway.
Pitch meeting: Konami rep.: your mechas are too big, they go way beyond just ignoring the laws of physics! Gainax rep.: WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM!?
Linguini being in there made me bust out laughing. Also love that Gurran Lagann is in every single stage, from second smallest to incomprehensibly the largest.
I get the joke but Linguini is not a mecha in any respect. He's not even a hollow human being when the rat controls him. But well, it's all good for the sake of humour.
@@Shmuel420 In Gurren Lagaan human (or spiral lifeform) willpower overrides physical reality, so characters just do whatever they like as long they don't believe that it's impossible.
By the end of Gurren Lagann, they were throwing universes at eachother like Frisbees. The author drew them all like Galaxies because "he didn't know how to illustrate an uncountable number of universes"
That's the point. It's very easy to say you have the biggest robot but by not being able to demonstrate it so that people can somehow appreciate it as such, that just takes away every value to what have said. Is the difference between silly talk and make. It reminds of DC fans which are always assuring that Darkseid is better/stronger than Thanos and you're like; *so well, go ahead and let the movies prove that then you can talk with some little more argument but until that just stay quiet*
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann exists in all versions of reality, all timelines, all time. There is no past our future for it… it just “is”. It blocked an attack that hit it in every possible way, in every timeline, in every version of the universe, even as the attack traveled back in time at every possible instance of the past and future
@@JeanAlesiagain3 dude what really no way thats so crazy bro im gobsmacked and in shock and awe and wonder and tears are flowing down my face at this wondrous revelation youve bestowed upon us all dawg thank you so much for everything you do
Also, while humanity fight with gigantic Spiral beings (those pure energy constructs no longer "robot"), final battle settled with fist fight, man vs god/devil.
As soon as I saw Lagann I straight away knew where this was going, then it went further beyond. Amazing. Also loved the variety, initially I thought it was just gonna be anime but when the Star Wars and Zoid mechs popped up I was happy.
Disappointed you went with Voltron Legendary defender instead of the original GoLion Voltron. But nice video. Also missing: A Dalek, which could be classified as a mecha if mutated aliens were classified as pilots.
I respect the ridiculousness of some of the other mechs, but Titantfall’s and Pacific Rim’s will forever be my personal favorites. The sheer rugged, metally, nerdy, coolness they radiate just stuck with me from the second I saw them
I think BT and gypsy danger are easily the most realistic depictions of massive Mecha, EVA's are too mobile for their size and despite how good neon is it does a far inferior job of showing it's scale compared to Pacific rim
@@churchA.I Nah. The smaller mechs would be more "realistic" as inverse cube law makes ridiculously huge mechs portrayed in shows actually less "realistic". Definitely would need MUCH larger feet to spread out the weight.
Seeing Gurren Lagann in the running all the way through from start to finish made me laugh. I love how Gurren Lagann took a basic joke as far as it could possibly be taken.
@@makimakilatip6399 5000 years of human art evolution led to Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. The most epic and legendary piece of art that has ever been created on the history of every living creature of every universe
@@zakuukaz4322 The best part is how they pilot the bigger ones. You see, you have to pilot the building size one with a person... that then gets inside the small galaxy size one and pilots it, which then goes inside the bigger one and pilots it, which then crawls inside the biggest one and uses the controls inside there. It's a Mecha Matroyshka doll, but with galaxies being spun like shuriken. Dumbest thing you'll ever watch again and again, because holy cow is it ridiculous fun ^_^
Gotta love Gurren Laggan for consistently causing massive jumps on the scale. And arguably having the most entries on the list. A little sad not to see any of the Promare mechs, especially the Deus Ex, Lio de Galion or Galo de Lion. Still a really fun list and it was cool to see some older/more niche entries get some deserved love.
That said, vanilla Gurren Lagann's scale is a little... off. It's been a while since watching, but I'm pretty sure it should be big enough to fit someone comfortably in the head.
Well they are using meters and some rough estimations. It wasn't very tall but wide enough that it could fit a few people and everyone always had to be sitting. It always looked a bit cramped for anyone but Simon who was pretty small in his own right.
@@StonedHunter No, no. Gurren Lagann is not 5 meters tall, with that scale, the head would literally be smaller then Lagann, and would not fit simon properly. I believe gurren lagann is like... closer to 10-15 meters? I'll try and dig up some information but it towers over some structures and over people a lot of the time. Note also that gurren lagann (as we see in the transformation sequence) is taller then the sum of it's parts.
@@brob657 my bad I thought we were talking about just the Lagann haha. You're right in that the scaling gets weird on the full basic version of Gurren Lagann, but honestly I can't remember well enough to know for sure how they made that work. The studio (well the people who would go on to make Studio Trigger in this case) is well known for not sticking too hard to logic and physics when it comes to rule of cool in their designs haha
@@StonedHunter that is true, but just by watching the show it's easy to tell that its not 5 meters, the TTGL and STTGL sizes that where first shown where also pretty wacko (We literally see STTGL tand atop an entire galaxy with a single foot.) Theres a shitton of caclulations on how big either can be, and a lot of them are downplayed because we are using the measures we have in our real life universe.
@@danarabi9038 im surprised that titan shifter isn't included even though the concept of piloting a titan from the back of a neck is very mecha inspired in my opinion.
yo same. I'm not a huge anime guy, but I've seen enough to know of some decent sized mechs. Once it started zooming out past our own solar system I just kinda went "e x c u s e me"
I love the inclusion of so many franchises on this list that you wouldn't normally expect. The LEGO Movie, Legend of Korra, the Death Egg Robot from Sonic, and even Shikoutazer from Akame ga Kill!!
I did NOT expect the Prawn suit from Subnautica to be the same size as the AMP suit from Avatar. That games sense of perspective is all over the place.
Yes, the more I think of it, the more its size makes sense for purpose. I just didn't get that perspective in game. I never walked up to it in the moon pool and thought "wow, that thing is tall". I guess if I'd played in VR mode, I might have seen it different.
"We evolve, beyond the person that we were a minute before, little by little we advance with each turn. Thats how a drill works" ~Simon (gurren lagann)
@@justinnguyen3906 when kamina stood up one more time and gave birth to the one and only "GOOOIIIIIGUUUAAAAA DUUUURRRIIIIIIIIILLLL BUUUUREAAAAAAAKEEEEEEE" I was like " holy jesus this man´s balls got them own orbit for moons" xD
they were throwing galaxies like shuriken. super tengen toppa gurren lagann tanked a hit with the same power as the big bang attack. the enemy condensed 2 galaxies together until they went critical and hit sttgl with the power of creation. it was ridiculous but epic
I like how Getter Emperor was in leagues with TT and STT Gurren Lagann, but then it just keeps going up to the actual supposed sizes like "... No... No it's not."
The whole idea of the show is that no matter how small you may start, you can become the greatest if you have the strongest will, so it makes sense that it starts the smallest and ends the largest.
@mhuntprofessional basically don't believe myself, believe someone is greater then you already. So your goal is try to be greater then the great. Once reach that goal. What if the greater has already pass when you reach? You go chase it once more to go further then anyone else because it is your goal.
I knew in my heart what mech was going to take the cake...but it still baffles me that a show can go above and beyond DBZ's level of craziness and power. TTGL is an absolute masterpiece.
The trick is they knew exactly how long the series was going to run, so they could push it to the exact limit and be sure they wouldn't have to go farther
Ever heard of Demonbane or Shinza Bansho? Their power and scale is just on another level. How about being so large you pop universes by brushing against them. Or characters being gods of multiverses, defining their very natural laws.
@@jenniferhamels1176 as much as I love guren lagann i still can't understand how tf did the communicate in that mecha. Like they were controlling different parts of the mecha but still continue to talk like they were sitting close by 🤔😂
in itself that lagann already exists defies the laws of physics, because that little robot can beat robots that generate earthquakes,but then gurren lagann destroys robots that generate tsunamis the size of robots over 300 meters high and then generated a huge explosion hundreds of times larger. arc-gurren lagann can push the moon and break the fabric of space-time (time is multi-dimensional with 11 dimensions and multiple axes, and space is infinite and infinitely branches into universes by the axis of time) super galaxy gurren lagann He has the power of a galaxy in his engine, the power of a micro-cosmos, and Simon can generate so much spiral power that he makes his cells into universes. tengen toppa gurren lagann exists beyond the physical universe, space-time and dimensions (beyond everything physical) with absolute control over concepts, time, space, cause and effect, destiny, hope (he embodies the concepts of feelings and emotions)super tengen toppa gurren lagann is pure spiral power, an infinite spiral power by simon (and spiral power is the power of evolution, the more spiral power the more powerful you will be constantly and sttgl is pure spiral power) in itself the spiral power is everything in the universe, each DNA, cell, living being, planet, star, galaxy, universe, space-time, dimensions, emotions, feelings, everything in existence is spiral power (even platonic concepts), a spiral being can bend all existence with spiral power, and simon has infinite amounts of spiral power
You have to love Gurren Lagann's dedication to sheer Rule of Cool. On a personal note, I'd love to see Balatack/Baratack in here somewhere. Just nostalgia.
@MBS, the reason why the wiki states that TTGL is that big is because: the fight takes place in a pocket universe that is much bigger and more complicated than ours, so those galaxies that you see in the background are actually *GARGANTUAN*. TTGL is described to be 100,000 times bigger than the milkyway galaxy (according to the creators?)
Wtf m8. I clearly stopped watching gurren lagann too soon. I’m about to watch it again to see how it progresses from a little mecha head to that gargantuan thing 👁👄👁
@@summoned_skulll9480 Bro you aint seen the half of it lol. Also, the story gets really good at that point, like the whole reason for that fight and so on so, yes, go watch that. :)
In this video: none of the larger mechs from Gurren Lagann can move any of their parts without casually breaking the laws of physics and exceeding light speed.
Helps when it’s within an alternative dimensional space in-between the membranes of the 11th and 10th dimensions, that is entirely shaped by conscious thought.
I mean it falls in line with the show. The Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann had missiles that literally alter probability itself just to always hit you, and the Arc Gurren Lagann iirc had a punch that literally knocks it's target into other dimensions
I was surprised how small armored cores were, makes me wish all games that have pilotable mecha should allow you to walk on foot to get a scale of how big they really are.
The size of armored cores varies by game somewhat, in some of the older ones (2 or 3 I think) AC's are closer in size to RX-78 going off the intro videos.
For anyone wondering as to why tengen toppa and chou tengen toppa were on here twice, those two mechas can also exist inside of normal space, as they generate spiral energy within themselves. But when in a super spiral universe, where spiral energy is generated everywhere, It can become bigger than our observable universe.
I'm pretty sure they have teleporters all over Tengen Toppa. And then Super Tengen Toppa is basically every single mech combined into one being, which is actually the reincarnation of Kamina, who was the founder of Team Dai-Gurren the brother of the main character... So STTGL isn't really a mech and more like a pure being of cosmic and spiral energy and the spirit of a dead man.
When the camera went out the solar system, i was like "excuuuuse me?" then it went out the galaxy, i was like 0.o Then it showed two freaking legs standing above the observable universe
Very happy to see _Battletech_ getting some recognition with the Timberwolf, although I'm a little disappointed it wasn't followed up by the Atlas or Annihilator. If this video is all about mechs going big it seems only logical that those beasts of assault mechs should get some mention. Still, its nice to see the series and its fanbase gaining more visibility and popularity these days. Its a nice change of pace from the overzealous domination _Warhammer 40K_ has had over tabletop games for the last couple decades.
İt'll sound silly but the observable universe is just the part of the universe we can see.Galaxies exist beyond observable universe so it's not the whole creation as you call
@@yasir7028 while I agree, and that's almost certainly true, it's not something we are likely ever capable of knowing. Hence "observable." We literally cannot observe what's outside of the observable universe. It's on the tin, mate.
@@Miestwin demonbane can increase its size to infinity, but sttgl has no size, since it is pure spiral power given form, and spiral power is everything, even thoughts, emotions and feelings
There's a pretty cool old dude who drives one of those in our neighborhood every once in awhile. He said his dad bought it after WWII when the govt. sold them off to the public...they're called a Willy's Jeep and it's pretty small compared to a new Jeep.
Amazing as always. I'm selfishly disappointed that the continent-sized mechas from Xenoblade weren't on there, but that's a quibble. You put Macross on there, and that's all that really matters.
Yessir Macross Baby!!! Impo the VF's are the best Mech designs ever created, that even G1 transformers took the design to be used by jetfire, well the VF-1 Super Valkurie that is.
This is the smartest size comparison video I've ever seen. It actually gives me the sense of how big they are by adding those details and surroundings. Amazing
Glad to see Gurren Lagann from the beginning all the way the way to being larger than the Observable Universe, its funny and heartwarming, knowing one of the major messages of the show being about the *Indominable Human Spirit* Also nice to see an Armored Core too, especially when THE ARMORED CORE 6 IS REAAAAAAL
Dude, Gurren Lagann from its release and still to do this day is my number 1 Anime. Just one season. One PERFECT season. ...Now, if some studio in the next century could make a loyal and beautiful rendition of the first couple Arcs of Berserk, Lagann would be easily supplanted.
I haven't seen escaflowne in over 20 years, it's amazing people still know of these hidden old Gem animes. Today's anime is soo much drama and silliness. Lol 👍👍👍👍
How the hell can any single object AT ALL (the largest black hole we know of is only one light week wide) be the size of a GALAXY? Even for fantasy fiction how was that explained?
I was happy to the Mad Cat(I will never call it the timberwolf.) But I was expecting to see the Atlas first cuz it's always been considered the tallest of them all.
Idk what your on about that is the most butt ugly mad cat ive ever seen. look at its fucked up arms. i dont remember the mad cat having 4 arms, do you! Also its called a mad cat clanner
I always love these comparisons! It's fun to see the non-anime ones distributed throughout. The truck driving along for scale was a great touch too. I wonder if there are any mechs that would have fit well to fill the gap between planet-scale and galaxy-scaled ones
I honestly wasn't expecting Lancelot or Big O to be that small. I feel like the Lancelot was supposed to be significantly taller, and Big O was the size of buildings from what I remembered. Crazy how the scale is so variable.
these sizes arent perfect. look at gurren lagann early on for example. simon's cockpit was the head, but that's waaay too small to be accurate. you could even ridetandem in both lagann's cockpit, and in gurren's so they were fairly spacious
The Knightmare's in Code Geass were always relatively small in scale compared to a lot of other mechs, but in a lot of cases the show creators probably never decided on an exact figure for their size and someone else was left to come up with one to fill in the details later.
The Eva's of Evangelion are somewhat difficult to approach, since they can have from 40 meters to 200 meters, but now the most accepted in their height is between 70 to 100, being 80 meters the most successful Still, wow... I didn't expect Linguini as a Mecha hahaj, I and others in some Groups gave Evangelion made certain jokes about it.
@@bluebirdsigma Which makes it the size of a Jaeguer to the Eva's, technically the Eva's without using their AT fields are equal to the Jaeguers, both in size and armament
@Amelia Fathiyah EN Vtuber If I know, but then when we see the comparisons with the Jaeguers of the Pacific Rim, we see that the Eva's have that approximate height with them.
There came a point where I was really just like “Okay why do we need a mech this big” and then when it started getting bigger than the damn galaxy I was like, “We lost, whatever Mech is that big wins, it’s no doubt the bad guy, it wins.” And then it kept getting bigger and I was like S-STOOP
@@LoveSickWorld Anime called "Gurren Lagann". If you don't care so much about realism as long as its badass, I highly recommend. Like the Anime equivalent of distilled "cheesy action flicks"
Just moving a finger tip in any meaningful way in a mech at size would break the speed of light and the laws of causality. It would take billions of years for a signal from the head to travel to the feet, and it would also take billions of years for your enemies to even be able to see the full size of the mecha.
Escaflowne is much smaller than I expected. It's always felt much larger than that in the show. However given that Van basically directly controls the arms and legs from the chest cavity I suppose it couldn't be too large.
On the galactic size and bigger, It'd take countless light-years to go to different body parts inside. Imagine needing to travel from the left ear to the right ear
Gurren lagan looks so absurd, yet when watching the anime you just feel it work, it feels right and everything is so full of emotion that you cant help but love it. Yeah, this anime is a Must watch, even if you dont like mechas, i certainly didnt find any appeal to them, but damn, this anime changed my outlook on them.
@@TheStargateNerd Brawlers are sustained by willpower, even when mocked as reckless and crazy. If there's a wall in their way, then they'll smash it down! If there isn't a path then they'll create one themselves. The magma of their souls burns with a mighty flame.
I find quite impressive the amount of presumable work behind this video in terms of searching for sources in every instance and actual modeling for each of them. Well done indeed.
While gurren lagann doesn't really care about scale, 5m for vanilla gurren lagann is really off. That would make it so 30% of it was lagann since lagann is the head and we know it's 1.5 meters without it's little shell. Based on using lagann as a measuring stick vanilla gurren lagann jumps from 15-30 metres throughout the show because they really didn't care (impact was more important that scale), one of his attacks was literally making a massive drill that's like 10x the size of the mecha. But this is all because gurren lagann is pretty insane to find measurements for and the 5m comes from a measurement given in the data book for the arc's size while it's unmeasurable because during that part of the anime nothing is physically real and they're on a higher dimensional plane so really fuck it. Gurren Lagann really did get wacky, still good though.
ikr. it should have been at leas 12 meters tall, since the way pilot is located within mecha is similar to the Valkyrie (Macross). So Gurren Lagann supposed to be much bigger than 5 meters. Now that I think of it it's 3 times smaller than Attack Titan (from Attack on Titan duh). Which feels kinda wrong
6:45, it was soo heart warming to see the terraformer from Jak 3. makes me happy to know that not everyone has forgotten such an amazing series . Thank you for including it :)
i have only one friend that knows the jak franchise and we both are afraid that if at a certain point we are no longer friends, we won't have anyone to talk about jak and daxter haha
Possibly. I might put the speed comparison somewhere up there as well, since he went so far into the slower speeds. That was probably the one I've learned the most from too, incidentally.

Was happy to see the Armored Core unit in there. I miss those games. Oddly, one of my primary core units looked almost exactly like the one you demo'd.
So many good memories of playing Project Phantasma and Master of Arena on the OG PSX. I was bummed about the later installments though, especially the titles that got handed over to SEGA. Would love to see a reboot done right.
@9:26. Maintenance Crew Chief: Sir, we need to replace wiring on Getter Emperor's right foot. It's pretty worn out. Engineer: Ok, what's the length of the wire needed? Maintenance Crew Chief: About 8,000 lightyears long.
In Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan's case, it is all Spiral Power which is essentially the potential power of Evolution itself as well as a spirit filled with burning vigor. Apparently, sufficient levels of Hype could theoretically create an entire universe's worth of energy to convert into infinite matter.
Loved the show, was the same animation house as Men In Black, and Extreme Ghostbusters. The Big Guy and Rusty comic by Frank Miller and Geof Darrow which the show was based off of is great too.
Wait a second, Gurren Lagann's head is its own independent mech (as seen earlier) able to fit at least three young adults and a pig-mole. The Gurren Lagann shown at around 1:25 looks like it could barely fit one of those people in the jeep in its torso, let alone in its head. The Prawn Suit seen two bots to the left is able to accommodate one pilot in a cockpit that, by this measure, seems to be twice as spacious as Gurren Lagann's. What's up with all that? edit: y'know, this might be a futile question given how big Gurren Lagann gets later. Trigger's default size category is "bigger than that last thing".
5m. Is just only "Gurren" itself. Totall high of Gurren Lagann is 12m. ... So your next question is "where did another 6.5m come from?" Right? When they"GATTAI DA!!" it always shows that Gurren extended it's arms legs and neck.
Ehh.... two young adults and a tween. Simon was like 12-13 when they found Gurren. And I think Yoko and Kamina would have to be around 16-17 ish. That being said the point still stands, though I think Gurren was more of a bowl than anything, so not super tall but damn boi he thicc. Like a VW Beetle.

When an entity is several times larger than our galaxy, I think it's safe to say we are entering the realms of cosmic horror rather than mecha
Gurren Lagann is quite literally about how humans fight cosmic horror being. By using very, very, very big robots.

Also, while humanity fight with gigantic Spiral beings (those pure energy constructs no longer "robot"), final battle settled with fist fight, man vs god/devil.
As soon as I saw Lagann I straight away knew where this was going, then it went further beyond. Amazing. Also loved the variety, initially I thought it was just gonna be anime but when the Star Wars and Zoid mechs popped up I was happy.
Yeah definitely knew what would be the biggest but trying to see how he presents it must have been quite a challenge...
Disappointed you went with Voltron Legendary defender instead of the original GoLion Voltron. But nice video.
Also missing: A Dalek, which could be classified as a mecha if mutated aliens were classified as pilots.
I am a bit disappointed in Gurren Laganns size though, seems way smaller than how it was depicted in the show
@@xdrakken4710 because that's not it's actual height it's not that small
These robots are not from lagann
I respect the ridiculousness of some of the other mechs, but Titantfall’s and Pacific Rim’s will forever be my personal favorites. The sheer rugged, metally, nerdy, coolness they radiate just stuck with me from the second I saw them
Exactly!♥️ Tho i haven't played Titanfall but have followed it gameplay and stories and i really liked all those mechs there!
I have a replica of the Gypsy Danger jacket from the beginning of the movie. Love it and it always gets compliments heh.
I think BT and gypsy danger are easily the most realistic depictions of massive Mecha, EVA's are too mobile for their size and despite how good neon is it does a far inferior job of showing it's scale compared to Pacific rim
@@churchA.I Nah. The smaller mechs would be more "realistic" as inverse cube law makes ridiculously huge mechs portrayed in shows actually less "realistic". Definitely would need MUCH larger feet to spread out the weight.

@@zakuukaz4322 Yeah one of the season finales was a space battle where the bad guy was throwing galaxies at them like sawblades, it was great.
@@zakuukaz4322 The best part is how they pilot the bigger ones. You see, you have to pilot the building size one with a person... that then gets inside the small galaxy size one and pilots it, which then goes inside the bigger one and pilots it, which then crawls inside the biggest one and uses the controls inside there.
It's a Mecha Matroyshka doll, but with galaxies being spun like shuriken.
Dumbest thing you'll ever watch again and again, because holy cow is it ridiculous fun ^_^
Critics: Mechs as big as planets are a bit silly.
Gurren Lagann: Hold my observable universe.
Gotta love Gurren Laggan for consistently causing massive jumps on the scale. And arguably having the most entries on the list. A little sad not to see any of the Promare mechs, especially the Deus Ex, Lio de Galion or Galo de Lion. Still a really fun list and it was cool to see some older/more niche entries get some deserved love.
That said, vanilla Gurren Lagann's scale is a little... off. It's been a while since watching, but I'm pretty sure it should be big enough to fit someone comfortably in the head.
Well they are using meters and some rough estimations. It wasn't very tall but wide enough that it could fit a few people and everyone always had to be sitting. It always looked a bit cramped for anyone but Simon who was pretty small in his own right.
@@StonedHunter No, no. Gurren Lagann is not 5 meters tall, with that scale, the head would literally be smaller then Lagann, and would not fit simon properly. I believe gurren lagann is like... closer to 10-15 meters? I'll try and dig up some information but it towers over some structures and over people a lot of the time. Note also that gurren lagann (as we see in the transformation sequence) is taller then the sum of it's parts.
@@brob657 my bad I thought we were talking about just the Lagann haha. You're right in that the scaling gets weird on the full basic version of Gurren Lagann, but honestly I can't remember well enough to know for sure how they made that work. The studio (well the people who would go on to make Studio Trigger in this case) is well known for not sticking too hard to logic and physics when it comes to rule of cool in their designs haha
@@StonedHunter that is true, but just by watching the show it's easy to tell that its not 5 meters, the TTGL and STTGL sizes that where first shown where also pretty wacko (We literally see STTGL tand atop an entire galaxy with a single foot.) Theres a shitton of caclulations on how big either can be, and a lot of them are downplayed because we are using the measures we have in our real life universe.

I just didn't expect it to be like 12 feet tall.
Tbf a LARGE submarine suit makes way more sense if you think in terms of autonomy, protection, and toolkit, than a man-sized one.
True but you do take damage sometimes from getting out of it on land, so it's kind of expected
Yes, the more I think of it, the more its size makes sense for purpose. I just didn't get that perspective in game. I never walked up to it in the moon pool and thought "wow, that thing is tall". I guess if I'd played in VR mode, I might have seen it different.
I love how Eva-01's height reads "70 (+30)". They actually did some research on the Inconsistencies with its height.
At least in Rebuild it is kept consistent at 80 meters

YES megas was a Mecha before the head decapitation. So its only fair
I like how Getter Emperor was in leagues with TT and STT Gurren Lagann, but then it just keeps going up to the actual supposed sizes like "... No... No it's not."
I think it's funny how TTGL has (almost) the smallest mecha on one hand and then on the other has multiple galaxy or even universe-scale stuff
The whole idea of the show is that no matter how small you may start, you can become the greatest if you have the strongest will, so it makes sense that it starts the smallest and ends the largest.
Hes right.
Don't just belive in yourself.
Believe in the ME who believes in YOU! 😂
going bigger is the whole premise of the show. and not only the robots. it reflects also the growth of humanity.
Even funnier is that this is kind of the Same mech.
@mhuntprofessional basically don't believe myself, believe someone is greater then you already. So your goal is try to be greater then the great. Once reach that goal. What if the greater has already pass when you reach?
You go chase it once more to go further then anyone else because it is your goal.
I knew in my heart what mech was going to take the cake...but it still baffles me that a show can go above and beyond DBZ's level of craziness and power. TTGL is an absolute masterpiece.
and crazy with scale of mechas
The trick is they knew exactly how long the series was going to run, so they could push it to the exact limit and be sure they wouldn't have to go farther
Ever heard of Demonbane or Shinza Bansho? Their power and scale is just on another level.

The creators of TTGL seem to have decided how to mock the laws of physics. Or just crazy...
That's the magic of Anime, the physics doesn't care there and thanks to that we have Master pieces like STTGL XD
in itself that lagann already exists defies the laws of physics, because that little robot can beat robots that generate earthquakes,but then gurren lagann destroys robots that generate tsunamis the size of robots over 300 meters high and then generated a huge explosion hundreds of times larger.
arc-gurren lagann can push the moon and break the fabric of space-time (time is multi-dimensional with 11 dimensions and multiple axes, and space is infinite and infinitely branches into universes by the axis of time)
super galaxy gurren lagann He has the power of a galaxy in his engine, the power of a micro-cosmos, and Simon can generate so much spiral power that he makes his cells into universes.
tengen toppa gurren lagann exists beyond the physical universe, space-time and dimensions (beyond everything physical) with absolute control over concepts, time, space, cause and effect, destiny, hope (he embodies the concepts of feelings and emotions)super tengen toppa gurren lagann is pure spiral power, an infinite spiral power by simon (and spiral power is the power of evolution, the more spiral power the more powerful you will be constantly and sttgl is pure spiral power) in itself the spiral power is everything in the universe, each DNA, cell, living being, planet, star, galaxy, universe, space-time, dimensions, emotions, feelings, everything in existence is spiral power (even platonic concepts), a spiral being can bend all existence with spiral power, and simon has infinite amounts of spiral power
Those same crazy creators have been beating up the laws of physics senseless since making Evangelion in 1995, and Gunbuster before that.
by their own right, 'yes'.
The last episode was absolutely mind-boggling...
You have to love Gurren Lagann's dedication to sheer Rule of Cool.
On a personal note, I'd love to see Balatack/Baratack in here somewhere. Just nostalgia.
@MBS, the reason why the wiki states that TTGL is that big is because: the fight takes place in a pocket universe that is much bigger and more complicated than ours, so those galaxies that you see in the background are actually *GARGANTUAN*. TTGL is described to be 100,000 times bigger than the milkyway galaxy (according to the creators?)
Yeah. Considering galaxies are hundreds of thousands of light years across and they're throwing them around like ninja stars... 🤣

In this video: none of the larger mechs from Gurren Lagann can move any of their parts without casually breaking the laws of physics and exceeding light speed.
Helps when it’s within an alternative dimensional space in-between the membranes of the 11th and 10th dimensions, that is entirely shaped by conscious thought.
I mean it falls in line with the show. The Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann had missiles that literally alter probability itself just to always hit you, and the Arc Gurren Lagann iirc had a punch that literally knocks it's target into other dimensions
And just that's the way Team Dai-Gurren rolls.

I was surprised how small armored cores were, makes me wish all games that have pilotable mecha should allow you to walk on foot to get a scale of how big they really are.
Yeah especially the 5th generation armored cores, as there are half the size of a 4th generation AC/NEXTS
Same impression with front mission's wanzer, I thought that wanzer a little bit larger that that...
I can't wait for Armored Core 6!!
There is. Daemon x machina. From the same developers as the Armored core games, which will most likely never get another game.
The size of armored cores varies by game somewhat, in some of the older ones (2 or 3 I think) AC's are closer in size to RX-78 going off the intro videos.
For anyone wondering as to why tengen toppa and chou tengen toppa were on here twice, those two mechas can also exist inside of normal space, as they generate spiral energy within themselves. But when in a super spiral universe, where spiral energy is generated everywhere, It can become bigger than our observable universe.
If we go by the cannon TTGL should be as big if not bigger than the multiverse

The elevator ride on some of the largest mechs to get to an office would be one heck of a commute
Either because it takes a literal eternity to get there, or you have to break several laws of physics to get there in time.
I'm pretty sure they have teleporters all over Tengen Toppa. And then Super Tengen Toppa is basically every single mech combined into one being, which is actually the reincarnation of Kamina, who was the founder of Team Dai-Gurren the brother of the main character...
So STTGL isn't really a mech and more like a pure being of cosmic and spiral energy and the spirit of a dead man.
When the camera went out the solar system, i was like "excuuuuse me?"
then it went out the galaxy, i was like 0.o

Very happy to see _Battletech_ getting some recognition with the Timberwolf, although I'm a little disappointed it wasn't followed up by the Atlas or Annihilator. If this video is all about mechs going big it seems only logical that those beasts of assault mechs should get some mention.
Still, its nice to see the series and its fanbase gaining more visibility and popularity these days. Its a nice change of pace from the overzealous domination _Warhammer 40K_ has had over tabletop games for the last couple decades.

I always love these comparisons! It's fun to see the non-anime ones distributed throughout. The truck driving along for scale was a great touch too. I wonder if there are any mechs that would have fit well to fill the gap between planet-scale and galaxy-scaled ones
I honestly wasn't expecting Lancelot or Big O to be that small. I feel like the Lancelot was supposed to be significantly taller, and Big O was the size of buildings from what I remembered. Crazy how the scale is so variable.
Buildings aren't that tall unless we are going 40 stories plus. From what I remember of big o it didn't even tower over bridges over bodies of water
Gotta remember the fight in the mall with Lancelot, he managed to fit in a lot of those hallways too
these sizes arent perfect. look at gurren lagann early on for example. simon's cockpit was the head, but that's waaay too small to be accurate. you could even ridetandem in both lagann's cockpit, and in gurren's so they were fairly spacious
30m is pretty damned tall, that's like a 10-15 storey building
The Knightmare's in Code Geass were always relatively small in scale compared to a lot of other mechs, but in a lot of cases the show creators probably never decided on an exact figure for their size and someone else was left to come up with one to fill in the details later.
Shoutout to Simon the Digger for being the absolute GOAT.

Just moving a finger tip in any meaningful way in a mech at size would break the speed of light and the laws of causality. It would take billions of years for a signal from the head to travel to the feet, and it would also take billions of years for your enemies to even be able to see the full size of the mecha.
@@mso82 Kick logic to the curb and do the impossible!!
Laws of Physics:Okay, so I should be back by 5. I'll call if I'm late.
You even included Escaflowne, Nirvash, and Xenogears stuff. . Hats off to you!
thats because escaflowne and Nirvash already in super robot wars series.
If one of the Gears was in the SRW series they would be kinda broken, Xenogears would be way more broken than Zeorymer or Neo Granzon.
@@BenunoKagaho Especially Weltall considering what it can turn into...and the level of destruction it can bring out.
Escaflowne is much smaller than I expected. It's always felt much larger than that in the show. However given that Van basically directly controls the arms and legs from the chest cavity I suppose it couldn't be too large.
I was very pleasantly surprised to see Weltall there
On the galactic size and bigger, It'd take countless light-years to go to different body parts inside. Imagine needing to travel from the left ear to the right ear
"Sir! There's a coolant leak!"
"Where?!"
Thus began our 250 year journey...
And imagine how slow the mecha s go as bigger as they get
@@thz-1827 id imagine theyd move really fast since they cover such a vaaast distance with each movement
@@juans7464 barely move an inch and the foot is already at a distance galaxy
@susheee nah you already said inch...so it only moves an inch 👍
Gurren lagan looks so absurd, yet when watching the anime you just feel it work, it feels right and everything is so full of emotion that you cant help but love it.
Yeah, this anime is a Must watch, even if you dont like mechas, i certainly didnt find any appeal to them, but damn, this anime changed my outlook on them.
The true giant robot is THE POWER OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT
@@TheStargateNerd It's a testament to the skill of the storyboarding, storytelling and animators that they made things at scale work.

@@TheStargateNerd Brawlers are sustained by willpower, even when mocked as reckless and crazy. If there's a wall in their way, then they'll smash it down! If there isn't a path then they'll create one themselves. The magma of their souls burns with a mighty flame.
That shit is overrated as hell.
I like how they referenced the fact that Jupiter is in fact a piloted robot
I find quite impressive the amount of presumable work behind this video in terms of searching for sources in every instance and actual modeling for each of them. Well done indeed.
While gurren lagann doesn't really care about scale, 5m for vanilla gurren lagann is really off. That would make it so 30% of it was lagann since lagann is the head and we know it's 1.5 meters without it's little shell. Based on using lagann as a measuring stick vanilla gurren lagann jumps from 15-30 metres throughout the show because they really didn't care (impact was more important that scale), one of his attacks was literally making a massive drill that's like 10x the size of the mecha.
But this is all because gurren lagann is pretty insane to find measurements for and the 5m comes from a measurement given in the data book for the arc's size while it's unmeasurable because during that part of the anime nothing is physically real and they're on a higher dimensional plane so really fuck it. Gurren Lagann really did get wacky, still good though.
ikr. it should have been at leas 12 meters tall, since the way pilot is located within mecha is similar to the Valkyrie (Macross). So Gurren Lagann supposed to be much bigger than 5 meters. Now that I think of it it's 3 times smaller than Attack Titan (from Attack on Titan duh). Which feels kinda wrong
Stopped watching it when they killed off the main character and let a retarded mob character take his place.
Nerd.
Yeah 5 meters is way off. It always felt more natural for him to be at least Mazinger Z's height.
He's 10 to 15 meters. It's in the data books by Gainax
To have anything bigger than a universe is insane
to your puny human brain.
@@LeonSKennedy7777 says the guy who surely travels out side of the universe on the regular
size of an entire galaxy is well within sanity tho of course. :3
@@hraefn1821 a galaxy does not encompass trillions of galaxies now does it?
the observable universe, but yeah kinda like... but why though?
‘How big do you want your mechs?’
TTGL: yes
‘How stupid do you want your mechs to look?’
TTGL: yes
6:45, it was soo heart warming to see the terraformer from Jak 3. makes me happy to know that not everyone has forgotten such an amazing series . Thank you for including it :)
Never forget our boys Jak and Daxter
jak and daxter is will alway be my childhood
i have only one friend that knows the jak franchise and we both are afraid that if at a certain point we are no longer friends, we won't have anyone to talk about jak and daxter haha
Love that you include Macross/Robotech in your size comparisons :)
No Destroids though.
No loader from Aliens? It certainly counts and is way more iconic than some the smaller mechs shown.
I didn't see the robots from Pacific Rim either.
@@dugjay there was one from Pacific rim, but I think it was one of the smaller ones
@@dugjay gypsi danger the main one was there
Mech, or exoskeleton?
@@brodriguez11000 it's definitely a mech. You pilot it you don't wear it (well really it's just a bipedal forklift but I digress)
Megas XLR and Big O being here is beautiful
Now that was insane. Pretty sure the only MBS video that goes further than this in scale is the time comparison.
The heat video goes at least this high. But yeah, those blue cubes will probably never be outdone.
Possibly. I might put the speed comparison somewhere up there as well, since he went so far into the slower speeds. That was probably the one I've learned the most from too, incidentally.
Yeah, sometimes I watch the time comparison just to remember, that some things are not as important as they pretend to be
Nothing can top the time/blue cubes video, it would probably break human minds if it did
I had to use this video to explain to my fiance that Vah Nabooris is taller than an ATAT. He was mildly surprised to see just how much bigger it was.
Bro hasn't he seen it it in game? How big does he think At-Ats are???!!
@@narnianninja4964 he's never seen a proper sizing of Vah Nabooris, just me attempting to board it and dying at least 5 times to lightning because I was vibing to the music.
@@lumindoesvideos 🤣I can't blame you! Vah Naboris's theme is one of the best ones in the game.
ua-cam.com/video/cNrj71yEXrI/v-deo.html
@@lumindoesvideos fair enough
but all you had to do was show just how much leg room you have on naboris vs an atat
also i dont think naboriss scale is correct here
because look at one of the railed balconies on the side of naboris
its hard to scale since there isnt a human in the scene to compare to
but it just seems way to big vs how tall link is in botw
4:20 for ATAT and 7:20 for Vah Nabooris, for the lazy ones, I appreciate you, stay lazy.
Was happy to see the Armored Core unit in there. I miss those games. Oddly, one of my primary core units looked almost exactly like the one you demo'd.
I think From Software are making a new one.
So many good memories of playing Project Phantasma and Master of Arena on the OG PSX. I was bummed about the later installments though, especially the titles that got handed over to SEGA. Would love to see a reboot done right.
The video did not include the Spiritual Successor to Armored Core, Daemon X Machina. Those mechs are around 5m tall.
That's AC Oracle from Armored Core: Nexus I think. Kinda like the cover mech of the game.
Yes and Front mission too i love front mission 4 my favorite mecha genre games till now
And it is even larger than that, because in the final battle, they are fighting between universes, those aren't galaxies, but universes
They even throw them at eachother.
@9:26.
Maintenance Crew Chief: Sir, we need to replace wiring on Getter Emperor's right foot. It's pretty worn out.
Engineer: Ok, what's the length of the wire needed?
Maintenance Crew Chief: About 8,000 lightyears long.
I love how there are robots in fiction that you would literally have to strip-mine entire universes to create.
In Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan's case, it is all Spiral Power which is essentially the potential power of Evolution itself as well as a spirit filled with burning vigor. Apparently, sufficient levels of Hype could theoretically create an entire universe's worth of energy to convert into infinite matter.
@@EatWave Yep. Everything above the size of Arc-Gurren Lagann is a construct of pure spiral energy; it has nothing to do with actual matter.
I am so happy that you have included Megas XLR to the list 😊
Chicks dig giant robots.
And the Super Giga Drill is even bigger than that!!
I guess the debate is settled. Linguini IS a mech.
Side note, does anyone remember the show Big Guy & Rusty?
Damn, that show was badass. I always kinda hoped for a crossover between Big Guy and Megas XLR.
Loved the show, was the same animation house as Men In Black, and Extreme Ghostbusters. The Big Guy and Rusty comic by Frank Miller and Geof Darrow which the show was based off of is great too.
Big Guy & Rusty was awesome!!
Hell yeah!
Wait a second, Gurren Lagann's head is its own independent mech (as seen earlier) able to fit at least three young adults and a pig-mole. The Gurren Lagann shown at around 1:25 looks like it could barely fit one of those people in the jeep in its torso, let alone in its head. The Prawn Suit seen two bots to the left is able to accommodate one pilot in a cockpit that, by this measure, seems to be twice as spacious as Gurren Lagann's.
What's up with all that?
edit: y'know, this might be a futile question given how big Gurren Lagann gets later. Trigger's default size category is "bigger than that last thing".
Thé vidéo actually get the size of stage 1 gurren Lagann wrong. He’s supposed to be approximately 12m based on what I’ve read… not 5m
5m. Is just only "Gurren" itself. Totall high of Gurren Lagann is 12m.
...
So your next question is "where did another 6.5m come from?" Right? When they"GATTAI DA!!" it always shows that Gurren extended it's arms legs and neck.
Ehh.... two young adults and a tween. Simon was like 12-13 when they found Gurren. And I think Yoko and Kamina would have to be around 16-17 ish. That being said the point still stands, though I think Gurren was more of a bowl than anything, so not super tall but damn boi he thicc. Like a VW Beetle.
Except that its not only 'Gurren' its 'Gurren Lagann' cause you can actually see the head (Lagann) its definitely wrong.
@@shinotenshi5192 nobody said the video is correct here.
Keep in mind that Anti-Spiral will always a little bit bigger than any size of STTGL/TTGL.
Yeah but they're an entity not a mech I thought?
No that’s not true, with sheer willpower the spiral lifeforms are able to push past the limits the anti-spirals thought as absolute
Better watch out! Emmet’s Contruct-O-Mech seems like it’s a force to be reckoned with.
0:26 The rat may be the cook, but Linguini is the real hero.
How the f*** is Alfredo linguini a robot?
@@karinarojas6837 He's a piloted vehicle. lol
The mechs in Starbound can be customized to the player's liking, with a different variety of bodies, legs, boosters, and weapons.
Just like armored core, and to a lesser extent battletech
I love that game, a pitty its future is on the hands of modders now, but that's for the best.
Starbound was a flop.
Front Mission and Chromehounds are the same thing too.
So.....?
What I learned from this video :
-Gurren Lagann
-Linguini
