So Gundam is totally mecha? Macross and Robotech would certainly fit into that category for sure. Does the various Gundam anime (Seed, Wing, etc.) or does it not also contain romance, drama, character development, etc.? Which is also what he/she was looking for... I just offered some suggestions, they will have to look into each one more closely to see whether they are interested in it or not... which is much better than having one suggestion to go on. Sometimes you can overlook the mecha if the storyline is good enough, like Escaflowne has mecha which is a part of the storyline, but it isn't the major focus of it.
