I finally watched a mecha anime after 20 years of skipping them

I always wrote off giant robot shows as just toys fighting, never got the appeal. Then a coworker in my office kept going on about Gundam and insisted I try one episode with him last Tuesday. I figured I'd humor him, but the political drama in the first arc actually hooked me, way deeper than I expected. Now I'm three series in and wondering what else I've unfairly dismissed for decades. Has anyone else had a genre they skipped forever and then one show flipped your view?

Cowboy Bebop did that for me with anime in general. Sometimes one good one is all it takes.
