Tech Romancer, or Super Steel War Chronicle Kikaioh, is a 1998 Fighting Game that involves Humongous Mecha of various sorts. The game was produced by Capcom and the mecha were designed by Studio Nue. It its considered by many in being a Spiritual Successor to Cyber Bots: an earlier 1994 mecha fighting game that was also made by Capcom. Available from within the arcade machines and the Sega Dreamcast, the selection of fighters allow players to answer burning questions such as who would win in a fight between Mazinger Z and Ultraman, and the battle between a robot from Macross and a Gundam.The story of Tech Romancer generally (each character's story mode is a little, or sometimes extremely different) deals with an intergalactic threat at the hands of Goldibus: a merciless Galactic Conqueror who has come to Earth in order to invade it with his loyal followers, conquer it, and enslave the human race with an emotionless iron fist. An unlikely group of heroes band together and join forces to fight against the threat of Goldibus, using their own unique mecha robots and all of them won't rest until Goldibus is defeated and the world is safe from the imminent danger.Like most of Capcom's lesser-known fighting games (Star Gladiator, Rival Schools, Power Stone), Tech Romancer didn't make much of an impact from within its debut and that it had soon faded into obscurity, though throughout the later years, its characters have made cameo appearances from within later Capcom titles.Has nothing to do with literal romance with technology, unless it's one of Rafaga/Simon's endings. | |

Ground Pound | |
| Tech Romancer (Video Game) / int_3401240 | comment |
Ground Pound: Twinzam V strikes the ground with a giant flathead screwdriver, and the resulting ground shockwave homes in on the enemy, damaging it and knocking it upwards. Wise Duck does the same with its right arm, and the resulting explosion acts as a high damage anti-air move, or a ring of force that stops anybody charging in. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The best example is one of Rafaga/Simon's endings: he's in prison for disobeying orders and fighting the giant robot menace, and believes his love interest, an alien android, is dead. However, he finds out that an identical, yet younger version of the girl was found at the specific location of where she had supposedly died from. | |

Downer Ending | |
| Tech Romancer (Video Game) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: Given the multiple story paths, a few are inevitable. G. Kaiser gets one in a possible path if you fail to defeat the last enemy in a short enough amount of time, Junpei (your character) fails to escape the castle and is presumed dead. But the cake has to go to Wise Duck: Arvin reappears at the rusted out remains of the Wise Duck 10 years later after the last battle. No one knows why the aliens attacked, the rest of the crew is dead, and Arvin pours out a bottle in memory of his team. And that's the happy ending...the sad ending reveals that Arvin was executed for trying to convince the crew not to kill an innocent little girl (and they weren't even going to anyway, they just needed to know if they could trust him), and the rest of the Story Mode was just a Dying Dream. And one of Kei's possible endings where in the specific ending she takes the path of a Messianic Archetype and tries to save humanity from their polluting ways, but decides to leave the Earth so that the humans could fend for themselves. | |

Super Mode: Each character can activate a "Hero Mode": G. Kaiser's Hero Mode lets it fly freely through the air and perform supers without spending meter. Dixen's Hero Mode outfits it with shoulder cannons that fire homing lasers. Pulsion's Hero Mode drives it berserk, making it run on all fours and performing leading attacks. Bolon's Hero Mode summons various debris that enhances its attacks. Rafaga's Hero Mode summons a Kill Sat. A special command can make it execute a Colony Drop. Diana-17's Hero Mode creates an anti-projectile barrier. Wise Duck's Hero Mode gives its missiles homing capabilities. Twinzam V's Hero Mode has different effects depending on its current configuration: Fire Configuration summons a meteor storm, while Plasma Formation creates a barrier of whirlwinds. Gourai's Hero Mode inflicts damage that cannot be recovered. Blodia's Hero Mode summons an Attack Drone. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| Tech Romancer (Video Game) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
One-Hit Kill: Each robot has a move called a Final Attack that can only be performed when an opponent has lost the previous round and its damage gauge has hit 50% or more. If the first hit of a Final Attack is not blocked or dodged, the match ends in victory for the robot that threw the final attack. | |

Rule of Funny: Most of the robots' Finishing Moves involve Macross Missile Massacre, More Dakka, or a BFS. Bolon's is Death By Playing House. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Tech Romancer (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The game literally runs on these. For one, Dr. Tatsumi strongly resembles Gendou Ikari. G. Kaiser is a clear homage to MazingerZ, complete with a Rocket Punch, Chest Blaster, and Hot-Blooded hero. Dixen pulls inspiration from Mobile Suit Gundam, in particular the Zeta Gundam and Nu Gundam. It's Final Attack is pulled straight from the iconic "Last Shooting"◊ scene of the original anime series. In addition, Halma's story mode is inspired by Gunbuster. Dixen's Enhanced Punch item might have been influenced by Blue Comet SPT Layzner's Knuckle Punch. Pulsion is a mix of Ultraman / Ultraseven (moveset and story), the EVAs from Neon Genesis Evangelion (lanky design, berserk Super Mode), and Tekkaman Blade (weapons, Voltekka). Rafaga is clearly a Variable Fighter from Robotech/Macross. It helps that Tech Romancer's mech designer is Shoji Kawamori, who designed the Variable Fighters in the first place. Twinzam V gets its inspiration from the grandaddy of Combining Mecha, Getter Robo. Diana-17 is based on an obscure mecha, ARIEL, with a dash of the non-mecha Cutey Honey (who was made by Mazinger Z's creator). Its control system is pulled from Jumborg Ace and/or Mobile Fighter G Gundam. Wise Duck is mostly inspired by Macross' Destroids (especially the HWR-00-Mk II Monster), although it has some Armored Trooper VOTOMS elements such as its rollers and a Pile Bunker arm. Its pilot crew were inspired by the Cyclops Team from Mobile Suit Gundam 0080, and the horned red variant is an homage to Char's custom red mechas from Gundam. Bolon is what would happen if Boss Borot was piloted by a Magical Girl. Gourai is inspired by The Brave Fighter of Legend Da-Garn. It also draws inspiration from the red Ace Custom mecha of the Mobile Suit Gundam series. In Nakato's story, its pilot, Shadow Red, takes the role of the game's Char Clone (and even has the same VA as the original Char Aznable). | |

Clothing Damage | |
| Tech Romancer (Video Game) / int_e61d9a3c | comment |
Clothing Damage: Aside from a damage gauge, most robots also have an armor gauge which starts at 100% and goes down with each physical hit. When the armor gauge drops to 0%, the robot is knocked away, and blocking attacks with your armor destroyed results in more Scratch Damage than usual. | |

| Tech Romancer (Video Game) / int_e84a7d27 | comment |
Genre Refugee: Polin is the most obvious, being a Magical Girl in a robot game, but the most blatant Super Robot or Real Robot pilots stand out in the story mode of the opposite genre. For example, Twinzam V's pilots, Sora and Daichi, stand out when they go toe to toe to gritty military pilots in their inexplicable mecha piloted by two young children. | |

Diving Kick: G. Kaiser, Diana-17, and Twinzam V Fire Formation can somehow suddenly change direction and speed while in mid-air to deliver a drop kick. Pulsion does the same, except it leads with a fist instead of its heel. Bolon actually hovers in mid-air, spinning, before it crashes into its opponent. | |
