It's not anime, but it's a game and it's from Japan and it's a robot so there.

i remember my mom got me this instead of the die cast metal optimus prime...

i cried (because I was 7 and well because my mom made a huge assed mistake). my dad ended up finding one of these (beta fighter) eventually... and then some vhs tapes of the series and well i was hooked (for about a year). I actually never followed anything animae or cartoons after that...

Looks pretty cool... what is this?

It's a character from the PS2 game Persona 3. Basically a robot with guns for hands. I like the design because it makes her look like she's made out of clockwork gears and such. It's probably one of the few unsexualized female Japanese robot designs I can think of.

Does Samus Aran count as a robot or a chick?

She's a bounty hunter in a suit. She doesn't appear in an anime and she isn't a robot, although Metroid is a Japanese game (it was developed by Nintendo R & D).

That's Aigis, a robot that appears in Persona 3. You also get to control and date her in the FES version.

My only knowledge of Samus Aran is from Smash Bros.

That makes me angry.

Go and play Metroid: Zero Mission. It's a great introduction to the series.

You should also play Super Metroid (originally released for the SNES). One of my favorite games of all time, next to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (I sure do love those 2D side scrollers!)

But for robots, I've always held a place in my heart for the ZM-D11S Abigor from Mobile Suit V Gundam. Simple design, but it was the 1st model robot I ever got so there
