Chicks Dig Giant Robots
Anime
To qualify for this stack, the following must be true
1) The show includes some form of mecha, interpreted loosely.
2) The show must include one or more important female characters
3) At least one of the female characters, other than a villain, must interact directly with the mecha in an important role (typically pilot, but other roles can be sufficient)
This does not require that only females pilot or even that the main character/pilot must be female, only that we get a good active role from a female character, not just a damsel or sideline role.
