both mecha with medieval/fantasy settings, "sci-fantasy". Main character travels to a world totally different .

Both are fantasy mecha series in which the main character comes fo inherit a powerful machine that's been hidden away, in both cases due to a close relationship they have to kings. The main difference is that Galient's MC is more outwardly willing to fight to achieve his goals, while Break Blade's MC initially seeks to avoid combat and the series deals with how he comes to terms with his new position in the military.

Eiyuu Gaiden Mozaicka addpermalink

Incredibly weird medieval fantasy settings with a lot of odd sci-fi elements thrown in, sci-fantasy? Who knows. Throw in some mech's in Mozaicka and you could almost imagine these two series take place in the same universe. Both are handled by the same director and character designer as well, among other staff. Galient does benefit a bit more being longer for sure though, sadly Mozaicka tends to feel like a "what if teaser" of sorts, but it's worth checking out if you like Ryosuke Takahashi's stuff.

Classic Sunrise's dab into medieval mecha. Although there's obviously the futuristic mecha aspects, both shows also have some weird elements of sci-fi mixed in with its fantasy as well (moreso with Galient). You've got Dunbine directed by Tomino (Gundam) and Galient by Ryosuke Takahashi (Votoms), so they have their differences but if you like 80's mecha these are both definitely worth checking out.
