Who'd be more useful, a yuushafag protag in a real robo series, or a realfag protag in a brave series?
well a yuushafag would only come in handy if they have a machine to match. Then you get vid related against all conflict

I'm not sure how a realfag would help if he can't tap into his GUTS

yuushafag on a real robo series.

On that note, has there been a mecha series that's done that before? Where everything is relatively grounded and "realistic", but then out of fucking nowhere it pulls out a god machine that can annihilate armies without a scratch?
I mean besides Gunbuster itself, which did just that.

Depends on the real robot protag.
For example, Amuro is literally Kabuto Koji except with "get in the fucking robot" meme applying to him a thousand times more than it does to Shinji, ironically.
Meanwhile, you also have your Shadow the Hedgehog style real protags like Chirico, Kamille, Mika, etc.
And then you have the civilian real robot protags like Saeko, Al, etc.
And you have other real protags that aren't a standard archetype like Crin or Basara.
Gai Daigoji is a pretty good example of what happens if you put a superfag in a gritty real setting.

Yeah, and give him a shitty mech of that setting to do his job.
Besides, he didn't die in combat. He died in something completely unrelated to his character.

Technically, that pic's from an Eldoran show, but the principle applies regardless.

Maito bankrolls everything, wins by that.

Gundam 00 does that in the first episode.
The flawed implication that people seem to be having is that real robot series are inherently more deadly than super robot series. That is false.

That isn't the same, they catch up to that thing's level of power.

How about Gundam 00 S2 with 00 Raiser.

There's only good characters and shitty characters. It just so happens that most RR characters tend to be utter shit. Of course, there are exceptions.

Really, you could put a good character in any series (even Muv-Luv) and they'd still earn their happy ending through sheer hotblooded willpower. The only obstacle is edgy writefags pulling a "ROCKS FALL CHARACTER DIES."

I'd say the ML end was more bitter sweet than full on happy.
