Here's the thing...

Shy of maybe Nadesico, none of those NEED a second season. They went as long as they felt they needed to, then they ended.

What you're asking for would be more along the lines of a whole other sequel series, a la Zeta Gundam or Macross 7 rather than a second season.

and honestly, it's funny you mention VOTOMS, cause it's sort of become a case for the fact sometimes it's better to leave well enough alone.
VOTOMS TV had a pretty satisfactory conclusion. The world continued on, but Chirico and Fyanna had hit a good point where we could leave them and Takahashi was good with that.

But fans kept asking for more. So we got some prequels and midquels for a bit.
Then Shining Heresy happened...and while it's not a full pariah, a fair number of fans weren't particularly happy with the fact it essentially went LOLNO to the way the series ended.

For a more recent example, look at Eureka 7. There's a reason fans say to just stick to the first series only there.

>Betterman?

YOU ARE CORRECT SIR!

That show was as pretty far removed from it's parent series GoaGaiGar as it gets.

I wish there where more Mecha horror shows

I agree. I think the whole issue of mecha horror is that giant robots somewhat detract from the horror part.

Or you get something like the first 3 episodes of Getter Robo Armageddon

>>13881888

yeah I suppose it's hard to be scared when you're protected by tons and tons of steel and weapons.

I thought Betterman and even M3 worked well though. There's a lot of ways to really fucking mess with people beyond BOO! IMMA GETCHA

Not entirely.

If anything you can make the giant robot the centerpiece of spooky bullshit.

Bonus points if it starts off looking nothing special but as the story goes on you're given more and more reason to want nothing to do with it.

Horror can be more complex than merely shock and terror, there's also the subtleties of unease and discomfort.

>there's also the subtleties

well that's kind of the thing. Mecha tends not to be terribly subtle and horror really requires a good deal understanding about making the protagonists human and vulnerable

it can certainly be done but it's not easy and can really require a slow burn, which as M3 proved a lot of people aren't up for

Oh! Oh! 0083!

Which is why you'd think gothic would be more in fashion since melodramatic developments fit that style of horror quite well, something that mecha fiction definitely has demonstrated a capacity for.
