Properties

Mecha pilots are trained pilots that ride in mecha, giant mechanized suits. These vehicles are designed to either fight with each other, serve and combat a war, or battle giant kaiju level monsters. They sit inside a mech and drive it. This requires extraordinary coordination and proprioception. They must train and relearn how to make basic movements such as walking to properly pilot a mecha. Mecha pilots are often found in political themed anime, as such some mech pilots might have intuition in politics.
