Portmanteau of "robot" and "beast". The standard Monster of the Week for Super Robots and Super Sentai/Power Rangers. A Robeast is a Kaiju-sized monster, more often than not the same size as the Super Robot that battles it, though Robeasts in Toku may also start in human size, so as to be a threat on a personal scale, then grow through some form of Applied Phlebotinum. Robeasts are sometimes capable of human-level intelligence or communication, though when they are, they usually spout interchangeable villainous threats and taunts. Robeasts are usually built with both biological and mechanical construction (though some are also completely mechanical, magical constructs, giant demons, and the like). They come in a dizzying variety of shapes, abilities, and weapons, and very rarely will any two robeasts look alike, even between robeasts deployed by the same villain(s). Many of them avoid humanoid designs and mook status, becoming a Mechanical Monster. They are almost always Made of Explodium, being the defacto pioneers of Defeat Equals Explosion. Compare Animal Mecha. Not to be confused with Ambiguous Robots, though their design may sometimes imply they are this. Smaller versions of these may be covered under Mechanical Animals. |

Drache, the first boss from Einhänder seems to fit. The background story notes that its AI emulates beasts' behaviors. Hence why the robot roars when you defeat it. Don't forget Ausf A Gestell, the mad ape mecha which roars in its intro, every time it's knocked down, and upon death. |

The Beastmen Ganmen / Gunmen and the Anti-Spiral Mugann from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. Gunmen are also an inversion, because the heroes use the exact same kinds of robots they stole from the beastmen. Slightly inverted in that the Mechasauruses, like much of the Reptilians, are a highly intelligent race. |

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Genocide features several brand-new Angels, who — as it turns out — are all the artificial creations of the mad A.I. known as the Emerald Tablet: the first is a possessed experimental Mass Produced Evangelion, formely Unit-A, but rebranded as Samael upon being declared an Angel, the second is a massive blob of inky darkness that possesses Unit-08, and the third one is a clone of Kaworu, directly controlled by the the Emerald Tablet itself. | |

The Angels from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Four Angels subverted the trope by not being giant at all: Leliel is infinitely thin, Bardiel and Iruel are microscopic (the former is The Corruption, while the latter is a colony of sentient nano-viruses), and Tabris/Kaworu is human-sized or just a Half-Human Hybrid, it's not really clear. | |

The original form of Mechagodzilla from Godzilla franchise. The second version was a human piloted mecha. The third version was a human piloted mecha built on the bones of the original Godzilla, dubbed Kiryu. Kiryu went berserk in its first confrontation with (a second) Godzilla, playing with the trope. Then there's the cyborg Kaiju Gigan, the original Moguera (the second M.O.G.U.E.R.A. was, again, a human-built mecha), and Mecha-King Ghidorah. |

The Child of Love: In chapter 3 shows up an Angel made up by the writer. It is based on Sahaquiel: it is an enormous, floating, heavy thing that plummets downward and tries to crush Tokyo-3 under its weight. In chapter 7 appears another originally created Angel. It is called “Megrael”, it looks like a winged Evangelion and it remained airborne while shooting light beams. |

Fairly common in the Chouseishin Series as foes for mecha battles. Omega in Chouseishin Gransazer starts off a human-sized Robot Soldier but is capable of transforming into a kaiju-like monster form, which oddly enough has what look to be organic parts. Genseishin Justiriser: In addition to fully organic Space Beasts, the Hades Army occasionally makes use of "Deathborgs" — monstrous, fully mechanical Space Beasts modeled after various animals. Chousei Kantai Sazer X has Diros, a robotic Terror Beast capable of splitting itself into and reassembling itself from a swarm of Flying Saucer ships. |

Any Super Robot Wars game has one or more of the above series included, so it's a given. Except for the Original Generation series, which still manages a less "of the week" variant with the Einst. The Shura attempt a more direct homage with their animal-themed mecha, but they have soldiers as pilots. They also get giant space flounder monsters living amidst the asteroid belt. |

The Ganbare Goemon anime had Seppukumaru, the bad guy from the third Goemon game, summon creatures called "Cyber Devils" to fight the eponymous Mystical Ninja and his allies.

One Sentai show, Choudenshi Bioman, only applied this to the giant battles (and thus averted Make My Monster Grow) — the Biomen instead fought a group of recurring monsters on the ground exclusively, then fought a Mecha Gigant (or later, a Neo-Mecha Gigant, sometimes piloted by one of the three generals). This approach didn't really see much (if any) use afterwards, likely for budgetary reasons (since the monster of the week was only used in the giant battles as opposed to both giant and ground battles, meaning Toei wasn't getting as much use for their money). | |

Partial example with the Ultra Series, as most of the kaiju are more in the vein of Godzilla than Super Sentai, while the Ultras are aliens instead of robots. Nevertheless, they inspired a great deal of the examples here, and a number of the monsters fought by the heroes fit the trope in some way or another. They're not all one-off Monsters of the Week either, with many becoming as every bit as popular and iconic as Ultraman himself. | |

GEAR Fighter Dendoh has the entire Galfer species, with a specific hierarchy. From bottom to top, we have: Galfer Soldiers, Galfer Guards (supposedly stronger versions of the Soldiers), Mechanical Beasts (Soldiers that have increased their power by fusing with some technological object), Heavy Machines, Professional Machines (specialized Galfer with power between Mechanical Beasts and Heavy Machines, and much faster, smarter and trickier than the latter. They're usually part of Quirky Miniboss Squads), Lagowe, Zero (similar to a Professional Machine but even more powerful than a Heavy Machine, and actually part of the Galfer Emperor), and the Galfer Emperor himself. | |

Toku such as Super Sentai (and by extension Power Rangers) revolve around this, with a different rubber suit Monster of the Week to challenge the heroes (and oftentimes the heroes' giant robots) as the driving force behind the villain's scheme. Every Big Bad has his or her own way of making monsters, and making them bigger. They're sometimes the source of Nightmare Fuel, and sometimes Narm Charm. Sentience and whether or not they're Always Chaotic Evil varies from series to series. One Sentai show, Choudenshi Bioman, only applied this to the giant battles (and thus averted Make My Monster Grow) — the Biomen instead fought a group of recurring monsters on the ground exclusively, then fought a Mecha Gigant (or later, a Neo-Mecha Gigant, sometimes piloted by one of the three generals).

As Voltron: Legendary Defender is a reboot of the Trope Namer; of course they show up. But in this case, they are much nastier threats than the ones the Paladins usually face and often entire episodes are dedicated to taking them down. They're not even named until Season 2, when Hunk panics at facing another "robot... beast! Ro-beast!" Unfortunately, they are also significantly downplayed — they stop appearing altogether shortly after the second season, leaving a paltry four Robeasts in the entire 78-episode run. | |

From the Toho-produced King Kong Escapes comes Mechani-Kong, who beats Mechagodzilla by some 7 years, but comes a full decade after Moguera. | |

Voltron is the Trope Namer, after the monsters in GoLion and Dairugger XV. The equivalent terms were Deathblack Beastmen (then Mechablack Beastmen) in GoLion and Combat Machines in Dairugger XV. | |

And the Battle Beasts from Great Mazinger already diferred from the Mazinger Z Robeasts, bordering on a Deconstruction from the trope. They were capable of speech and independent thought, and they were very cunning due to it. This resulted in a Near-Villain Victory in the THIRD chapter. | |
