eighty six is simply a poor man's IBO. similar social message, and every element in the setting is identical to a t - ethnic and class discrimination, child soldiers, cold blooded ace and his team, idealistic girl from the elite who tries to level with them, technologies using merge of machines and human bodies etc
The two are so similar in themes, character dynamics and mech design that it feels like one kid copying the other's homework.

- Feature discrimination of a race
- Both have spider like mechas
- Both of them have as protagonists a group of "slaves"
- An important person from the dominant side takes a liking and tries to save the dominated group (Kudelia and Vladilena)
- Existence of family like bond between the discriminated group
Kids are forced to fight in giant robots against other robots in a grim life or death setting both deal with the poor treatment of those deemed lesser.
Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans and 86 shares some similarities in themes and storytelling. While they have distinct storylines and settings, a few aspects make them comparable.
Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans is set in a future where children are used as soldiers known as "Mobile Suit Gundam" pilots. The story follows a group of young orphans who form a private military organization and strive for independence and equality.
Similarly, 86 depicts a society divided between the privileged elite, known as the "Handlers," and the marginalized group of soldiers known as the "86." The story follows the experiences of the 86 as they fight for their humanity and dignity

• Some humans (who are not considered humans) isolated with their existence exploited by people with a comfortable life. A princess who is indignant with the treatment that this group receives for society to make it end and that everyone has human rights.
- This isolated group treats everyone within it as a family;
- And giant robots.
Bolth are mecha anime where the cast are initially seen as expendable soliders.
Bolth emphatise comradery between the cast and have certain characters giving their perspective thrugh the lens of having had a sheltered upbringing. Characters, animation and ost is great in bolth. IBO needs no context from other gundam anime making it a great geatway into the franchise.
Military children on mechas, fighting against oppression by the upper class. Not as good but 86 is looking decent so far.
I don't know what to explain but both of them are almost the same

The fighting style is very similar in that the characters all fight in mechs
The main similarity is the political aspect and the disparity between the 86s or the Marshans and the higher class.
the plots are similar as they both follow a ruling class person who feels sorry for the lower class
the male protagonists are very similar with the only difference being that shin is probably smarter
* giant robots
* squad of slaves that want to be free
* similar action scenes
* Mika/Kudelia and Shinei/Vladilena have similar personalities and relationships
* solid worldbuilding in both

Story takes different ways but the main idea is the same. A group of abandoned children have to pilot mechas in order to survive. One group fights against robots and their gobernment and the another one fight against different armys or groups.
