OK, so I had this RP over on Anime Angels, and I thought I'd bring it over here and see how it goes.
So, in the near future, the Earth is beset by aliens! They strike with little warning, leaving destruction in their path! To stop them, the governments of the world hire a mercenary task force to repel the aliens and save the planet: The Super Robot Mighty Task Force.
As their name would suggest, they do this through the use of giant robots. 'Cause chicks dig them. Their weapons are pretty much picked for whatever they think is awesome. If it looks cool, they use it. If it makes big boom, they bring it. If it causes collateral damage, they use it anyway.
Obviously, they aren't perfect, not by a long shot, but they work well enough for the world to pay their substantial price, most of which goes to their insurance deductibles or settlements with business owners.
Clearly, as mecha stuff goes, this is on the Gurren Lagaan (which I have not seen) or the Megas XLR (which I have seen) side of things. Awesome mecha goodness for the sake of awesome mecha goodness. Bring in parodies/references to various mecha things you'd like to make fun of/have as part of your mecha.
