The title robot of Go Nagai's 1975 anime, Grendizer is the third Super Robot in the Mazinger metaseries. Piloted by Duke Fleed, it gained a huge following in European and Arabic countries, and is often paired with Mazinger Z and Great Mazinger in video games.
Often used as either a weapon or in a weapon and also used often times as a weather effect, lightning is seen in several games. Called "thunder" in some games, even though thunder is the sound that lightning makes.
Mazinger Z, created by Go Nagai in 1972, is a popular Super Robot, featured in manga, anime, and several video games, including various arcade shooters and all Super Robot Wars games involving giant robot anime crossovers. Piloted by Kouji Kabuto, it is considered the first super robot.
Mechs (or Mecha) are humanoid-like pilot driven vehicles often depicted in media as a combat machine. Early examples of Mech/Mecha in video games are often derived from early manga and anime as well as table-top games.
A mechanical lifeform, typically exhibiting superhuman abilities, that can be found in games as either the main protaganist or as powerful enemies or allies.
When your robot comes from your grandfather's basement, performs impossible transformations, is more powerful than an entire nation's military or otherwise kicks reason to the curb, it's more than a mech; it's a Super Robot.
A length of exceptionally sharp metal with a handle, used for centuries as the go-to killing device for the human race. It's dead simple: you stick the pointy end in the thing you want to die. Or you could always slash them with the equally sharp sides. That works too.
