- Totally oblivious princess who quickly learns the truth and turns into a badass?
- Hidden truths of the world that need to be uncovered?
- Racism that needs to be shattered?
- Mechs?
The themes are both incredibly similar. Cross Ange goes even harder on following the badass chick. I've seen most of the other shows that are recommended after watching 86, and none of them even come close to Cross Ange. Especially the first half of both.
- People from marginalised races fight in a hopeless war against seemingly invincible foes, inside mechas to protect the very seemingly utopian societies that discriminates against them because of their features, or the lack thereof.
- Feature female main characters from the "bad" side, at first discriminated/were discriminated against/by the their comrades, but finally came to an understanding. Has romance elements.
- Quite nice and similar plot twists as the stories progress, making viewers wonder whether the world is right because everybody thinks it is.
- People die when they are killed.
Individual seen as 'less than human' are forced to fight (in mechs) for the sake of the rest of humanity. These individuals endure death and trauma. Lots of very dark themes. Gore.
