1WildMassGuessing for the ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' series:
2----
3
4[[foldercontrol]]
5
6[[folder:New Series Debuts]]
7
8* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamTheWitchFromMercury'' has its own page [[WMG/MobileSuitGundamTheWitchFromMercurySuperRobotWars here.]]
9* ''Literature/LegendOfTheGalacticHeroes'' also as a page [[WMG/LegendOfTheGalacticHeroesSuperRobotWars here.]]
10* ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSeedFreedom Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom]]'' has its own page [[WMG/MobileSuitGundamSeedFreedomSuperRobotWars here.]]
11
12[[WMG: The next Super Robot Wars will have ''Anime/CodeGeass'' and ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''.]]
13Both were hits as far as I can tell, and it gives RealRobot and SuperRobot fans a number of things to drool over, such as a [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Char Aznable]]/[[Anime/CodeGeass Lelouch Lamperouge]] team up, [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]] and '''[[Anime/CodeGeass Jeremiah Gottwald]], THE ULTIMATE SYMBOL OF LOYALTY!''' in a LensmanArmsRace of [[LargeHam ham]], and Gurren Lagann vs [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Evangelion Unit-01]]. The money would flow.
14* Typically, a series is given a three-year minimum waiting period before being used in a game, to minimize spoilers. However, in rare cases (namely, ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED''), if a show is popular enough, they'll use it early. So this is doable.
15** That settled, let's try to guess what role they would have in the plot. I personally think that they'll use the post-timeskip designs for everyone who survived the first arc and put them alongside anyone who didn't make it. After all, SRW is 90% RuleOfCool anyway. The plot itself would obviously involve Kamina punching [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Gendo Ikari]] [[FanService repeatedly]].
16*** The three-year rule [[UrbanLegendOfZelda isn't true anyway]]; as one example, consider that ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamF91'', which hit theaters March 16th 1991, was in the original SRW, release date April 20th 1991. Either way, ''Code Geass'' and ''Gurren Lagann'' are both big enough that if said rule did matter, they'd be prime candidates for breaking it, probably along with ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'' once it finishes. That said, I predict ''Code Geass'' Season 1 in Z2 and ''Code Geass R2'' and ''Gurren Lagann'' in Z3.
17*** I believe that [[Anime/CodeGeass Nunnally vi Britannia]] should also get the mecha from the SpinOff manga ''Manga/CodeGeassNightmareOfNunnally''. I don't care if SRW only adapts anime, Nunnally must kick butt, darn it!
18*** Both ''Manga/MobileSuitCrossboneGundam'', and [[Manga/MobileSuitGundamSEEDAstray Red and Blue Frame Astrays]] have appeared in SRW, so it's not impossible....
19*** Kamina and Gendo? I'm personally betting on either Kamina or [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Simon]] epically [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan punching]] [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji Ikari]] in the face. Come on, they're going to have to do it to someone sometime.
20*** [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Rossiu]] should be the one to do it. Then we would have a progression from Kamina -> Simon ->Rossiu -> Shinji.
21*** [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Viral]] would probably be a boss.
22** Personally, I hope that if ''Code Geass'' gets in, ''Anime/TheGirlWhoLeaptThroughSpace'' (though it doesn't have a prayer for quite awhile) will be alongside it at some point. Because any interaction between Lelouch and [[Anime/TheGirlWhoLeaptThroughSpace Leopard]] can only be awesome or hilarious.
23* '''Confirmed'''! It took a few years (more than 3 since ''Gurren Lagann'' ended), with a few non-flagship games in between, but ''both'' are indeed debuting together in the ''Second Super Robot Wars Z''.
24* And they did it again with ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsX'' though ''Code Geass'' is post plot while ''Gurren Lagann's'' plot is altered quite a bit.
25
26[[WMG: ''Gundam 00'' will also appear in the next ''Super Robot Wars'' game.]]
27Which means we can look forward to such things as Setsuna's friendship with [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Heero Yuy]] and maybe [[Literature/FullMetalPanic Sagara Sousuke]]. A battle between [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamCharsCounterattack Amuro Ray]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Ribbons Almark]], the reactions of Char, [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Zechs Marquise]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Mu La Flaga]] towards [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Mr. Bushido]] and a chance to use the Final Dynamic Special on [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Ali Al-Saachez]].
28* Five bucks says there'll be a way to save the first [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Lockon Stratos]], leading to a tag-team attack between him and the second.
29* Or dragging [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Graham Aker]] back to shape and FIGHT for our cause (the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Masurao]] is... quite a nifty unit to have). Or snatching [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Nena Trinity]] and deliver a [[WhatTheHellHero "What the Hell, Girl!?"]] on that crossing of MoralEventHorizon, and then shape her up to be good.
30* Don't forget [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Patrick "The Immortal" Colassour]]!
31** With the Game Master skill imported from ''Z''. He's undefeated in simulator battles, after all.
32* For crossover purposes, the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 0 Gundam]] will actually be [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam RX-78-2 Gundam]] from the Universal Century timeline.
33** And [[spoiler:following the destruction of Ribbons' [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Reborns Cannon]] (and his duel with Setsuna in the 0 Gundam)]], Amuro gets the blueprints for the machine somehow (most likely [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Veda]], of all places) and modifies his current [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamCharscounterattack Nu Gundam]] into the '''[[MidSeasonUpgrade Hi-Nu Gundam]]''', hence why the [[spoiler:Reborns]] is given the FanNickname ''GN Hi-Nu Gundam''.
34* ''Anime/MacrossFrontier'' would fit well alongside 00 - Quantum Brainwaves and Fold Waves seem very similar, and one could easily see Ribbons and [[Anime/MacrossFrontier Grace O'Connor]] teaming up to "improve" mankind (with each intending to betray the other and lead themselves).
35* Also, there's the possibility of [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Kira Yamato]] vs. Ali, Aka: ARMAGEDDON!
36** Only God knows the result, or the player.
37* '''Confirmed''' for the ''Second Super Robot Wars Z''! Including ''Macross Frontier'', ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing New Mobile Report Gundam Wing]]'' and ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny'' crossovers. Awesome, huh?
38
39[[WMG: A future game will feature ''ComicBook/IronMan'' and ''WesternAnimation/MegasXLR''.]]
40The series has a surprising amount of popularity in the west for a game that has never been legally exported so it really is only a matter of time before the west's star super robots join the forray.
41
42[[WMG: SRW and ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha'' will eventually cross over with each other.]]
43Most likely in the ''VideoGame/EndlessFrontier'' series, since there aren't any HumongousMecha in ''Nanoha'' (yet...). Seven Arcs have shown themselves to be ''huge'' SRW fans with the endless [[ShoutOut Shout-Outs]] they keep putting in their works, and Banpresto seems to find this amusing enough to give a shout back at them with stuff like the [[strike: Starlight Break]] "[[WaveMotionGun Glory Star]]" attack for the Virgola Glory. In my experience, the two franchises have large overlap in their fanbases and one of the two companies involved has a long track record of catering to its' fanbase. All Banpresto has to do is make the offer...
44* Possibly Jossed, since Creator/A1Pictures made ''Nanoha Vivid'', although it might be unjossed as Seven Arcs reportedly has begun making Nanoha again.
45* With the inclusion of ''Manga/MagicKnightRayearth'' in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsT'', having MagicalGirl in SRW is no longer an illusion so it can open the door for Nanoha. Not to mention there has been a lot of foot-based units in SRW, and Nanoha honestly can work similarly like ''Anime/TekkamanBlade''.
46
47[[WMG: If any western mecha series ever get added, the first set for RealRobot and SuperRobot will be ''VideoGame/MechWarrior''[=/=]''TabletopGame/BattleTech'' and ''Megas XLR'', respectively.]]
48* I personally think ''Iron Man'' would be the real robot entry. He's already got some popularity in Japan with the live action movies and [[Anime/MarvelAnimeIronMan the anime]] from Creator/{{Madhouse}}.
49* And how about ''WesternAnimation/ExoSquad''?
50* Or ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}''. Actually, given that there have been Japanese ''Transformers'' series, that wouldn't even be necessary.
51* Pipe dream: ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}''. After all, ''Anime/TekkamanBlade'' made it in, and even then there ''are'' mecha in the series. Who wouldn't want to see a Mata Nui vs. [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Chouginga Gurren Lagann]] battle?
52* Because it SugarWiki/NeedsMoreLove: ''WesternAnimation/SymBionicTitan''!
53* Including ''WesternAnimation/TheIronGiant'' would probably be missing the point, [[DoNotDoThisCoolThing but don't tell me you wouldn't want to see an Iron Giant]][=/=]Manga/GiantRobo teamup.
54* ''WesternAnimation/TitanMaximum'', [[JokeCharacter just for the lulz]].
55* It's more possible than you'd think. If the main wiki is correct, they seriously considered including ''Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers'' in one of the games.
56** ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' appeared on a list of shows/games that would ''not'' appear on a SRW game (dubbed SRW U(npossible)), said list included White Knight, Abaranger, ''VideoGame/ArmoredCore'', among others. It is kind of rendered moot, though, since two names in that list (''Anime/DaiGuard'' and ''[[Anime/{{Gigantor}} Tetsujin 28]]'') are on the roster of the ''Z'' games.
57*** It seems more likely that they'd use ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' instead of ''Franchise/PowerRangers'', since Super Sentai is where the footage used in Power Rangers comes from - although if they chose to include a Sentai series that was adapted into Power Rangers (any post-''Jetman'' series that isn't ''Series/GoseiSentaiDairanger'', ''Series/TokumeiSentaiGobusters'' or ''Series/ResshaSentaiToQger''[[note]]This doesn't include ''Series/HikoninSentaiAkibaranger'', which isn't an official Sentai[[/note]], as those 3 were skipped by Saban), they'd probably do a few shout-outs.
58* Or [[Film/PacificRim the Jaegars]]
59
60[[WMG: The series will eventually include ''VideoGame/MetalWolfChaos''.]]
61Why? [[RuleOfCool Why not]]? Ideally, it'd be in the same game as ''Gurren Lagann'' and include a path involving a [[VideoGame/MetalWolfChaos Michael Wilson]]/Kamina team-up. Unfortunately, that part would inevitably be an ObviousBeta, since that much awesomeness in one place would cause the programmer's heads to explode.
62
63[[WMG: When ''Anime/StarDriver'' debuts in SRW...]]
64many characters will start to laugh because of its design.
65* **Confirmed** For ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsXOmega''
66
67[[WMG: ''Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger'' will appear in a ''Super Robot Wars'' game sometime in the future]]
68* While this could happen '''AFTER''' Super Sentai is included in a SRW game, it seems unlikely that this would be the Sentai series that would be used for the debut of Sentai (especially considering how heavily related it is to other Sentai series); if anything, it seems more likely that they'd use ''Series/TokumeiSentaiGobusters'' to debut Super Sentai, if only because the giant monsters of the week in that series are giant robots.
69
70[[WMG: ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamAGE'' won't be in any SRW game]]
71Not because of Creator/Level5 co-owning the series but the storyline being confusing as it is (three eras without {{time skip}}s? You're KIDDING RIGHT???). Even current [=SRW=] series producer Takenobu Terada will go mad on adapting the entire storyline in the game itself.
72* Support. Although Terada might able to pull some trick and fit ''Gundam AGE'' into an [=SRW=] crossover, its abyssal rating means nobody at Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment will pressure or support him to do it.
73* '''Confirmed''' for Super Robot Wars BX, but it will be mainly focused on the third arc of AGE.
74
75[[WMG: SRW will eventually feature [[Franchise/{{Transformers}} Optimus Prime]], even if they would never acquire right to use ''Transformers''.]]
76Although Terada pointed out that ''Transformers'' is too expensive of a franchise to use, Namco Bandai proved in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsUX'' that they aren't afraid of using mecha from toylines, and they seem to get along with Takara Tomy pretty fine lately. Eventually Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment would ask Takara Tomy to use the discontinued ''Diaclone'' toyline, and simply prominently feature '''Battle Convoy''' (with lot of ShoutOut).
77
78[[WMG: Banpresto may include ''[[Film/GSaviour G-Saviour]]'' in an SRW just to troll a lot of Universal Century ''Gundam'' fans]]
79And also imagine a lot of fans raging about it too.
80* Maybe not. Including a live-action title, even if it's trolling, will only result in fans harass them back by insist to have Franchise/SuperSentai series too. The possibility is so great that most fans surely won't mind seeing ''G-Saviour'' if it mean they might have [[Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger Daizyujin]] in later games.
81** Not entirely out of the question with Hathaway's Flash (which, officially, is also non-canon) appearing in [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsV Super Robot Wars V]], although it's more likely that Tomino's ''Literature/GaiaGear'' novel will be featured instead.
82*** Hathaway's Flash being included actually makes it more likely that ''G-Saviour'' might be included, since while Sunrise doesn't officially like to talk about the film, they have not released any anime that takes place at the same time as G-Savior (and the official policy of Sunrise in regards to Gundam canon is that anything that's animated is canon) - so if a non-canon Gundam novel can be included, then there's no reason why a live-action movie shouldn't be included. Although if they did include ''G-Savior'', they'd probably have to include ''Film/PacificRim'' in addition to Super Sentai, so there's that.
83** Somewhat unrelated, but the issue of fans demanding ''Sentai'' series in return for G-Saviour is no longer an issue, since Daizyujin will be in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsXOmega'', and odds are that at least one of the main games will feature a Sentai series in the future. However, the odds of including ''G-Saviour'' are still slim, since including an entry produced in the west would instead result in fans demanding the inclusion of the aforementioned Pacific Rim as well as ''WesternAnimation/TheIronGiant'' or the [[Film/TransformersFilmSeries Bayformer films]].
84*** Simple; just base G-Saviour’s events and depiction on the other media from around the time of the film’s release like the video game, novel, manga, and radio drama, which aren’t Western made. Then there’s less of a reason to consider stuff like ''Franchise/{{BIONICLE}}''. If all else fails, include it as a standalone unit with different or even no context.
85
86[[WMG: ''Anime/SDGundamForce'' will be included in a ''Super Robot Wars game'' just to troll more ''Gundam'' fans on bashing the series since 2004]]
87Due to fans bashing ''SD Gundam Force'', Bandai will troll them by including this series just for revenge.
88* As noted in the ''G-Saviour'' WMG above, including something solely for the purpose of trolling fans would only result in said fans harrasing back by demanding something similar to the series used to troll that isn't already up for consideration in return - in this case, given the art style of ''SD Gundam Force'', fans would likely demand ''Manga/KnightsOfSidonia'' in return. Also, considering that the series didn't finish it's entire run on Toonami, Bandai probably doesn't care about fans bashing ''SD Gundam Force''.
89
90[[WMG: Yes, they're gonna put ''Anime/GundamBuildFighters'' in a ''Super Robot Wars'' game]]
91Either as an expansion of the show's concept ala ''Super Robot Gakuen'', or Reiji will be from the game's universe, and using a full-size Build Strike.
92* They will use this chance to include ''Plawres Sanshiro'' as well.
93** Maybe the level will be a level similar to the recreation of the Battle of Solomon at the end of GBF, and everyone will just use a model kit of their mecha instead?
94* **Confirmed** For ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsXOmega''
95
96[[WMG: If a ''Super Robot Wars'' is to include ''Franchise/MuvLuv'', it must be set after the [[HordeOfAlienLocusts BETA]] established their hives on Earth, not during the installment.]]
97
98[[WMG: ''Literature/InfiniteStratos'' will be included in an SRW game at some point to troll fans]]
99Unlike the aforementioned ''SD Gundam Force'' and ''G-Saviour'' examples, there isn't anything fans would pester Banpresto to include in retaliation that wouldn't already be up for consideration (i.e., ''Muv-Luv'' is already a possibility due to ''Demonbane'' being included in another game, and with ''Hathaway's Flash'' being included in ''V'', something such as ''Literature/GaiaGear'' is already a possibility). And given the fact that ''Tekkaman Blade'' has already been included, the [=ISs=] from ''Infinite Stratos'' would surely fall under the realm of Powered Armor.
100
101[[WMG: Grendizer Giga will appear in a SRW with Shin Mazinger.]]
102* It would be nice to see this series represented and ally with Shin Mazinger, if only for [[ThrowTheDogABone giving Grendizer a lucky break]].
103
104[[WMG: ''Anime/CrossAnge'' will eventually be included in an upcoming SRW Game]]
105* [[Main/HilarityEnsues Hilarity will ensue]] among the cast once it happens. Especially regarding their interactions with the cast of ''Anime/CodeGeass'' and ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED'' (Tusk meets Kira, etc...)
106** Or not (see Embryo and their experiences with Rau Le Creset).
107** Then there'll be event with [[Anime/CodeGeass Lelouch]] reminiscing Prince Clovis over Emperor Julio.
108*** '''CONFIRMED!''' It'll debut in [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsV Super Robot Wars V]]! While ''Anime/CodeGeass'' isn't in the game, ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny'' IS, meaning that it's possible that we'll get to see the hilarity ensue after all!
109*** AAAAND now VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsX have both Anime/CrossAnge and Anime/CodeGeass. Let the games begin!
110
111[[WMG: [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Genesect]] will appear in next Super Robot Wars game.]]
112
113We have so many robot-based Franchise/{{Pokemon}} like Magnemite, Golett, and even Genesect. But Genesect looks more outstanding enough that it can be landed on Super Robot Wars battlefield. Plus, this legendary Pokemon has cannons which can fire [[EnergyWeapon Frickin' Laser Beams]], plus insect-like weapons that can slice enemies.
114* However, since Pokemon is an IP of Nintendo, Genesect will appear only if next Nontendo-platform SRW is in development.
115** The inclusion of ''Anime/TekkamanBlade'' does make this one more plausible, since that series had powered armor instead of traditional mecha - so maybe the next step would be to include self-sentient mecha.
116** And now, with the creation of both Dynamax and Gigantamax in [[VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield Sword and Shield]], it is possible for them to include Genesect in the game as a "Real Robot" with its Gigantamax version being a [[MidSeasonUpgrade upgrade.]]
117
118[[WMG: ''Anime/{{Vandread}}'' will be in a future ''Super Robot Wars'' game.]]
119* It's been 15 years since it was released, yet it still hasn't been integrated into the series yet. And the Harvesters may still be out there...
120** Perhaps it'll give a new game feature for CombiningMecha?
121*** Since they featured a Brave entry not named Anime/GaoGaiGar in ''V'', it seems like Banpresto is open to the idea, although odds are that we would probably see the feature introduced separately before they brought Vandread on board.
122** *Confirmed* For ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsXOmega''
123
124[[WMG: ''Anime/ValvraveTheLiberator'' will also be in another SRW game.]]
125* The same that'll feature ''Anime/CrossAnge''. Who know if their conflicting ideals of coexistence will come into play.
126** And a possible ShoutOut to ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' is inevitable thanks to [[DealWithTheDevil recurring]] [[InstantRunes themes]] [[Creator/EriKitamura and]] [[Creator/AoiYuuki actors.]]
127** Heck, the Norma must wonder if the Valvrave characters came out of [[https://33.media.tumblr.com/a8e04749020662d0c785bd287fdab85f/tumblr_nkht22mqYt1qm3v42o1_r6_500.gif the arcade games.]]
128** Nothing about Valvrave yet, but Cross Ange has been confirmed to debut in [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsV Super Robot Wars V]].
129** Did someone say Valvrave? Because '''CONFIRMED''', head to ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsDD''
130
131[[WMG: ''Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato2199'' will appear as an unorthodox series.]]
132[[RuleOfCool Because why not?]]
133* '''CONFIRMED!''' It'll debut in [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsV Super Robot Wars V]]!
134
135[[WMG: ''Literature/LegendOfTheGalacticHeroes'', ''Anime/InfiniteRyvius'', and ''Literature/CrestOfTheStars'' will appear in some future game.]]
136Since space operas have been given the OK to appear in the franchise with [[Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato2199 Yamato 2199]] appearing in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsV'', it would make sense for Bandai to start including more shows from the genre - LOGH is THE space opera anime among fans of the genre, so it would seem odd if they don't at least include one of the spin-offs. As for the latter 2, Bandai owns the rights to the anime adaptations, and in particular, Infinite Ryvius already has some mecha elements (it has a giant mech piloted by the crew of the Ryvius) - maybe perhaps the cast of IR can interact with Yamato 2199's cast if 2199 appears in more than one game?
137
138[[WMG: ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamIronBloodedOrphans'' will appear in some future game.]]
139We've already got [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Gundam Wing]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Gundam 00]] in the series - who wouldn't want to see [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Setsuna]] [[HilarityEnsues react to]] Ein Dalton, someone who actually [[spoiler: became his mobile suit]]? Plus, imagine how cool it would be to see [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Heero]], Setsuna, and Mikazuki talk with one another, while Duo, Lockon and Akihiro all become drinking buddies? Plus, we could see [[Anime/CodeGeass Suzaku]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Yzak]] [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny Joule]] react to Ein. And imagine Relena Peacecraft, Lacus Clyne, and Marina Ismail meeting Kudelia.
140* Confirmed. It debuts in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsDD''
141
142[[WMG: ''Anime/GarzeysWing'' will never appear in ANY SRW game]]
143Why? 2 reasons:
144* While the series is connected to ''Anime/AuraBattlerDunbine'', it does not feature any mechs, meaning that if they included Garzey's Wing in the game, fans would probably pester Bandai to include other non-mecha fantasy series such as ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' or ''Manga/{{Berserk}}''.
145* No one has any idea what happens in the plot (meaning that if the writers COULD somehow make the OVA make sense, it would be a miracle).
146
147[[WMG: If ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' is ever included in a SRW game, ''Series/TokumeiSentaiGobusters'' will be used as the debut series]]
148Why? Simple: Unlike the other Super Sentai series, ''Go-Busters'' is the only one where the giant monsters are actual mecha instead of monsters that simply grow in size after being defeated. Considering that the usual method for monsters turning Giant in Super Sentai would probably require a new game mode altogether where you control the Sentai members on foot before the giant robot battle, using ''Go-Busters'' would give an excuse for just skipping straight to the mech battle. And later on down the line, they could find some excuse to include monsters from any post-''Series/JAKQDengekitai'' sentai series[[note]]While officially, the first Sentai series is ''Series/HimitsuSentaiGoranger'', it wasn't until ''Series/BattleFeverJ'' that mecha became a feature and they began using the ''Super Sentai'' label - in fact, it wasn't until ''Series/ChourikiSentaiOhranger'' that ''Goranger'' and ''JAKQ'' were officially considered Super Sentai; prior to that, they were just part of the regular "Sentai" Series[[/note]].
149* Bonus points if they figure out some way to include ''Kamen Rider X Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen'' as a mission and feature the [[Series/KamenRiderFourze Rocket Drill]] Go-Buster Oh as a secret upgrade for the Go-Buster Oh.
150** Alternatively, they might use ''Series/ResshaSentaiToQger'' to debut Super Sentai along with ''Go-Busters'' to debut a gameplay mechanic of CombiningMecha, using the various Ressha for different combinations (as well as seeing [=ToQ-Oh=] Gobuster Ace - or for that matter, any other toyline-exclusive [=ToQ-Oh=] combination[[note]][[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger ToQ-Oh GokaiOh]],[[Series/TensouSentaiGoseiger ToQ-Oh Gosei Great]], [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger ToQ-Oh ShinkenOh]], and [[Series/EngineSentaiGoOnger ToQ-Oh Engine-O]][[/note]] - debut outside of the Toyline). Bonus points if they find some way to feature the [=ToQoh=] [[Series/KamenRiderDenO DenLiner]] in a similar way to the Rocket Drill Go-Buster Oh, and have Kamen Rider Taisen be a secret mission that would allow you to use the Denliner for any [=ToQ-oh=] combinations.
151
152[[WMG: A Disney cartoon, most likely ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' will appear in a future SRW game]]
153Well, since [=PnF=] had references to everything mecha, why not?
154
155[[WMG: Further predictions for if ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' is ever included in a SRW game]]
156* ''Series/DenshiSentaiDenziman'''s plot will lead straight into ''Series/TaiyouSentaiSunVulcan'', and the team from the former will interact with the team from the latter, thus connecting ''Denziman'' to ''Sun Vulcan'' even further.
157* Teams that share a theme (i.e., ''Series/KousokuSentaiTurboranger'', ''Series/GekisouSentaiCarranger'', and''Series/EngineSentaiGoOnger'' are all car-themed) will have special crossovers
158* The plot of ''Series/SeijuuSentaiGingaman'' will be somehow linked to that of ''[[Series/TokumeiSentaiGobusters GoBusters]]'', referencing to ''Gingaman'' airing 13 years before ''Go-Busters'' - giving an explanation for the "13 years of Darkness" mentioned in the first episode of ''Go-Busters''.
159* We'll get to see [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger Shinken-oh]] battle Chinomanako [[spoiler: while the latter posses [[Series/KamenRiderDecade DiEnd's powers]], thus giving us the opportunity to see a sentai robot battle a Giant Kamen Rider, thus making up for the fact that in the Decade/Shinkenger crossover, we didn't get to see this happen]].
160
161[[WMG:Classic {{Anime/Gigantor}} will appear in a future game.]]
162
163[[WMG:[[Franchise/UltraSeries Ultraman]] will appear as an unorthodox entry in a future game]]
164* [[RuleOfCool Why not?]] They already added Godzilla to ''X Omega'', so it's not like they wouldn't be opposed to including a Tokusatsu TV series. It doesn't even have to be the original; it could just be Tiga or Gaia.
165* Confirmed (kind of): It's not a live-action entry, but the 2019 Netflix ULTRAMAN made its debut in the second DLC pack for [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars30 Super Robot Wars 30]].
166
167[[WMG: MD Geist for Super Robot Wars]]
168* Banpresto has a habit of using forgotten Mecha Animes. MD Geist is technically a guy in a powered armor, but there already have been characters with powersuits. And it could be pretty hilarious when Geist meets Shinji Ikari or Kira Yamato.
169** Problem is that plot-wise, MD Geist has nothing to go off of - yes, I know that most games fix elements of flawed stories (see ''Seed Destiny'' for a prime example), but those stories had plots. Geist has no real plot to speak of. At most, you have 2 levels worth of content. If they were going to include MD Geist, it would most likely be unit only.
170
171[[WMG: The next main series game will have the full-fledged debut of ''Franchise/SuperSentai'']]
172* With Cross-Omega showing that Banpresto was able to get the rights, the opportunity is too big to miss. They don't have to include every sentai, but they could easily include, oh say [[Series/ChoujuuSentaiLiveman Live Robo]] or [[Series/UchuuSentaiKyuranger Kyuren-Oh]] in a game - in the case of the latter, maybe having [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger Dekawing Cannon]] as a hidden attack.
173
174[[WMG: If they ever have ''Anime/DarlingInTheFranxx'' debut, the other pilots will explain the meaning of love to the Stamen and Pistils, unlike what happened in ''V'']]
175However, one of the pilots explaining love will mention sex, which will cause history to repeat with the Stamen and Pistils asking other pilots about sex and said pilots refusing to answer because they are a bit embarrassed about the subject, until they make the mistake of asking a more...perverted pilot (i.e., [[Literature/FullMetalPanic Kurz Weber]], [[Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato2199 Analyser]],[[Anime/MacrossFrontier Luca]]) and HilarityEnsues.
176
177[[WMG: We will get a debut of ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsOfColdSteel II'' in the future.]]
178Falcom's gotta debut their biggest mecha game at some point in the series. Crow and Ordine could even be a SecretCharacter plus both him and Rean already have a CombinationAttack.
179
180[[WMG: Eventually, they will put in ''VideoGame/NierAutomata'' in]]
181That game is super popular and 2B these days is ''everywhere''. She's a robot, and so are the main casts like 9S and A2. Since SRW has been no stranger with human-sized robot or armored units like ''Anime/TekkamanBlade'', ''Anime/DetonatorOrgun'', or if you count ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsXOmega'', there's ''Franchise/MegaMan'' and ''Series/SpaceSheriffGavan''... The Nier Automata cast would fit like those kind of characters.
182
183[[WMG: They may include ''Anime/RayearthOVA'' and then integrate it as a pseudo-{{Midquel}} to the original ''Manga/MagicKnightRayearth'']]
184
185First, let's get over on how they could do this:
186* Much like years of doing ''New Story of Anime/AuraBattlerDunbine'' where Shion Zaba existed as a reincarnation of Show Zama, and yet they never meet each other (excepting in Compact 3 and T), they can easily make modifications to ensure the events happened to the Magic Knights in the normal anime continuity, whereas their grief of separating after graduating is replaced with the grief of [[spoiler:killing Emeraude]].
187* In ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsW W]]'', they did a splendid job of turning ''Anime/TekkamanBlade II'' into a {{Midquel}} and it worked wonders.
188
189With that out of the way, here's how they will integrate it:
190* As stated above, the Magic Knights were in deep grief that [[spoiler:they had to kill Emeraude]]. But thanks to the shenanigans of the villainous Banpresto Originals, Cephiro was set on a collision course to Earth, instead of it being Clef's idea, Clef was actually against it but ended up having to go through it, because the villains captured some survivors of Cephiro and then set them on BrainwashedAndCrazy. This is of course, referring to Alcyone, Ferio and Ascot. Worse still, the villains managed to seal Rayearth's true form so he could only re-contact Hikaru under a lesser form or a pseudonym: Lexus, which will serve as something like the [[Manga/GetterRobo Black Getter]].
191* So with just Hikaru inside a nerfed Rayearth, she had to also deal with the other series' problems, help Umi and Fuu retrieve Selece and Windam before eventually restoring Rayearth to his true form, at least free both Ferio and Ascot (Alcyone is not yet freed), and find a way to stop the collision of Cephiro while looking for what really caused the problem. By the end of it, Clef thanks the protagonists and returned with his people back to Cephiro, but [[SequelHook Hikaru thinks that it's not the end]], thinking that all of it has something to do with Cephiro's state and maybe she had some sort of culpability due to [[spoiler:killing Emeraude]].
192* If it isn't the original villains doing it, then it would be someone with an extension with Debonair, but first and foremost, ''it cannot be Eagle'', that is a deviation in the OVA that Banpresto is better off writing out. Eagle will come out as a member of the Autozam... though they could refer to it by having said original villain look like Eagle or [[Creator/MegumiOgata share the same voice.]]
193
194So what are the benefits of doing this?
195* Restoring the reputation of ''Anime/RayearthOVA'' which suffered TheyChangedItNowItSucks
196* Making use of some of its mecha designs without making the girls naked while in cockpit (that will seriously not go anywhere in the books of Bandai Namco)
197* Giving Alcyone, Ferio and Ascot HumongousMecha that could render them as a legit SecretCharacter
198* Making an optional, expanded bridge between both seasons, which can be useful when they want to involve Rayearth in a multi-episode SRW like Alpha or Z.
199
200[[WMG: In case of the appearance of ''Anime/TheBraveFighterOfSunFighbird''...]]
201They will probably mention the [[MemeticMutation "Is this a Pigeon?" meme]] and make it a RunningGag for Katori/Fighbird.
202
203[[WMG: ''Manga/DestinyOfTheShrineMaiden'' will make it in at some point.]]
204Potential crossovers include:
205* ''Manga/HadesProjectZeorymer''
206* ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam''
207* ''Anime/AuraBattlerDunbine''
208* ''Anime/MazingerZ''
209* ''Manga/PopTeamEpic''
210* ''[[Manga/GetterRobo New Getter Robo]]''
211
212[[WMG: ''Anime/ThePriceOfSmiles'' will take place in the [[Anime/ArmoredTrooperVOTOMS Astragius Galaxy]].]]
213Yuki Soliel will be the Queen of the Balarant Union that’s at war with both Gilgamesh and Grandiga. [[spoiler:And Wiseman is responsible for the whole mess.]]
214
215[[WMG: Following the debut of the Netflix anime in Super Robot Wars 30, the next game will see the debut of one or a few of the [[Franchise/UltraSeries live-action tokusatsu Ultraman shows]].]]
216* The next game could explain that humanity's need to unite as one and colonize space was due to constant attacks from Kaiju. Man's best defenses back then were the Ultraman and the various defence teams, and robot weapons such as [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Mobile Suits]], [[Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico Aestivalis]], and so on were made to better combat them without relying to much on the Ultras. The kaiju attacks ceased for a while, but warfare between Earth and the Space Colonies are causing the kaiju to arise once more, prompting the Ultramen to come back.
217* A possible debut Ultra show for SRW would more than likely be ''Series/UltramanZ'' due to said show's defense team actually using mecha to fight the monsters.
218* Another possible entry would be [[Series/UltramanTiga Tiga]], [[Series/UltramanDyna Dyna]], and [[Series/UltramanGaia Gaia]] as these three always tend to be grouped to gether in crossovers.
219* Alternatively, if legal issues regarding actors' likenesses prevent a live-action show from entering, they could use ''Anime/TheUltraman'' instead, since it ''is'' an anime and it was a collaboration between Tsubaraya and Sunrise.
220
221[[WMG: The next console game will debut [[Film/{{Gamera}} Gamera]].]]
222* I think Gamera would be easier to incorporate than Godzilla. For one thing, if I remember correctly, the Gamera license includes not just Gamera himself, but ALL of the monsters to use unlike Toho who licenses each monster seperately, which I imagine would be quite expensive for Bandai Namco.
223
224* Also, throughout most of his filmography, Gamera has been portrayed has a heroic monster. So it would be easier to have him join the heroes' side than Godzilla. Also, as the [[FriendToAllChildren Friend to All Children]], he could be persuaded by [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Mamoru]], [[Anime/BravePoliceJDecker Yuta]], and [[Manga/MagicKnightRayearth Hikaru]] to help save the Earth.
225
226[[WMG: ''Manga/OutlawStar'' will eventually appear]]
227The franchise has been willing to include series that only include starships as their versions of mecha so it isn't too farfetched that this series could eventually get in.
228
229[[WMG: ''Anime/DragonautTheResonance'' will eventually get in]]
230The dragons are essentially used in the way that mechas are in terms of combat so it's not impossible that this series could be chosen for inclusion at some point.
231
232[[WMG: The next non-mecha series to debut in a SRW game will be from the [[ShonenDemographic Shonen genre]].]]
233Possible candidates include:
234* ''Manga/DragonBall''
235** ''Anime/DragonBallZ''
236* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}''
237** ''Manga/{{Boruto}}''
238* ''Manga/OnePiece''
239* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}''
240** ''Manga/BurnTheWitch''
241* ''Manga/InuYasha''
242** ''Manga/YashahimePrincessHalfDemon''
243* ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia''
244* ''Manga/MagiLabyrinthOfMagic''
245* ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist''
246* ''Manga/RaveMaster''
247* ''Manga/FairyTail''
248* ''Manga/EdensZero''
249* ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba''
250* ''Manga/TheSevenDeadlySins''
251* ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure''
252
253[[WMG: Franchise/{{Touhou|Project}} will eventually be added to the series]]
254* VideoGame/GensouShoujoTaisen aside,There is also a possibility that games or at least characters from the Franchise (Reimu and Marisa are the most likely to be added) will be included.
255
256[[WMG: Franchise/{{Godzilla}}will eventually debuts in a main srw game]]
257* Godzilla has not appeared in the main srw game other than X-Ω so they will add him to the main srw somehow, but the real question is which era of him they will add. Showa? Heisei? Millenium? Rewia? Monsterverse?(even if it is very unlikely)
258
259[[WMG: How Muv-Luv's universe could integrate]]
260* The fact that Muv-Luv is set in a universe fighting an eternally losing battle is ''required'' for the series to be established. How this would happen is via fusing Muv-Luv with the other post-apocalyptic series, the caveat being that Japan will be taking the brunt of the apocalyptic stakes.
261** This would involve fusing Muv-Luv with the likes of Shin Mazinger ZERO, Getter Robo Armageddon, and Evangelion. Not only would they have to deal with the BETA, Japan would also have to contend with the Invaders, Dr. Hell, and the Angels at the same time.
262
263[[WMG: If Franchise/{{Transformers}} is included someday, it won't be represented with Franchise/TransformersGenerationOne, because that would be way too obvious]]
264Instead, Transformers will be represented via ''Anime/TransformersRobotsInDisguise'', the ''Anime/UnicronTrilogy'', or ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'', all of which are heavily associated with Japan in some way or another.
265
266[[WMG: A future SRW game will include an American-made SciFi series.]]
267Assuming, of course, they can work out the usual international copyright stuff. Candidates would include:
268* ''Series/Babylon5''
269** The show's united Earth government shares the same name with that from ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Gundam SEED]]'': the Earth Alliance.
270** Disagreement about Natural/Coordinator relationships and just how long and destructive the EA-Plant War has become could be an inciting incident for ''Babylon 5'''s Earth Alliance Civil War.
271** President Morgan Clark could be a part of LOGOS and would play a major role in giving Blue Cosmos the hold it has on the Earth Alliance.
272** Blue Cosmos would extend its FantasticRacism to aliens in addition to the Coordinators due to the Earth-Minbari War.
273** The Earth-Minbari War could happen around the same time as the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam One-Year War]], as both wars were cataclysmic events that shaped Earth and Mankind forever.
274* ''Franchise/BattlestarGalactica''
275** Either they'll use [[Series/BattlestarGalactica1978 the original 1978 series]] or [[Series/BattlestarGalactica2003 the 2000's re-imaginging]].Or maybe even [[AdaptationAmalgamation some mixture between the two]].
276** Conflict between the Earth Federation and the Colonial Fleet would arise considering whether or not Earth really IS the lost 13th Colony of Kobol. The Federation government would most likely dismiss the Colonials' claims and label them (and the Cylons) as "just another group of invaders" like [[Anime/VoltesV the Boazanians]] and [[Anime/MacrossFrontier the Vajra]].
277** Mainly focusing on the 2000's version here, but there could be some conflict between the Colonials (namely Adama and Roslin) and the more idealistic heroes. While they certainly WON"T condone the Cylons' wanton genocide of the Colonies, they'd would also take issue with the Colonial leadership's less-than-scrupulous actions, such as hiding away the human-Cylon baby Hera and lying to her mother about it, or spreading a deadly virus to wipe out the Cylons (essentially paying genocide unto genocide). While Roslin could defend her actions as necessary for the survival of the human race, the heroes could argue back that since they found Earth, humanity is NOT on that same verge of extinction anymore and actions like that aren't going to fly with them.
278*** The heroes would most DEFINITELY call out the Cylons (especially Number One/Cavil) for their hypocrisy and [[CulturalPosturing proclaiming to be better than humanity]], when really they could have just left to start a new life away from the Colonials and their revenge (for all the heroes know) is driven by pettiness and spite. If the Cylons' counterargument is that the Colonials would raise future generations to hate the Cylons if they left them alone, the heroes would argue back that it would be because they nuked them in the first place and that it would best to end [[CycleOfRevenge this repetitive cycle of war and hate]] right now and stop hunting the Colonials.
279** If Admiral Cain somehow survives to see Earth, expect her to advocate for the forced integration of Earth into the Twelve Colonies.
280** The Colonials would show some degree of fascination and/or racism to any alien members of the heroes' group, which would be an in-joke about how Creator/RonaldDMoore wouldn't use aliens in the reboot.
281*** Doubly so with any robots on the team with human-like A.I., like the [[Anime/TheBraveExpressMightGaine various]] [[Anime/BravePoliceJDecker Brave]] [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Robots]], considering that it was the Colonials' tampering with A.I. that gave rise to the Cylons in the first place.
282** If a game focused on the Original Series, there could be a FixFic of ''Series/Galactica1980'', with more focus placed on the incoming Cylon threat and getting Earth prepared for it. Any notion of the much-maligned kiddie aspects of the show, such as the "Super Scouts", would be either relegated to DLC scenarios or just scrapped altogether.
283* ''[[Franchise/StargateVerse Stargate]]''
284** Admittedly, this would mean that the Stargate Program would have to be revealed at some point. Can't exactly keep the project as a classified secret on account of the ''various'' alien invasions going on at the same time as Apophis and Anubis's campaigns.
285** In a bit of SRW-style CanonWelding, the humanoid aliens, such as [[Anime/CombattlerV the Campellians]], the [[Anime/ArmoredTrooperVOTOMS the humans of the Astragius Galaxy]], and the [[Anime/MajesticPrince the Wulgaru]], would be humans taken from Earth and experimented upon by [[Series/StargateSG1 the Goa'Uld]] long ago before they mysteriously abandoned them.
286** The Ancients and [[Anime/{{Macross}} the Protoculture]] were one and the same.
287** Access to places like [[Franchise/{{Zoids}} Planet Zi]] and [[Anime/ArmoredTrooperVOTOMS the Astragius Galaxy]] could be made possible via use of a Stargate.
288** [[Series/StargateAtlantis The City-Ship Atlantis]] was named after [[Anime/NadiaTheSecretOfBlueWater the ancestral homeland of Nadia and Nemo]].
289* ''Franchise/StarWars''
290** Han Solo vs [[Anime/CowboyBebop Spike Spiegel]]. Tell me that wouldn't be so awesome!
291** The Galactic Empire or the First Order will turn out to have connections to a major antagonist from a represented series.
292** Shinji will be trained by Ahsoka Tano in the Force.
293* ''Franchise/StarTrek''
294* ''Series/DoctorWho'' (technically not American, but the point still stands)
295** The Doctor will be pretty blase about everything because of how they've SeenItAll.
296** The Daleks will construct their own HumungousMecha in their image.
297** [[Anime/{{FLCL}} Haruko Haruhara]] has met the Doctor at some point.

301[[folder:Future Games]]
302[[WMG: If ''Anime/ShinMazinger'' and ''[=GaoGaiGar=]'' appear in the same game...]]
303
304There will be a CombinationAttack for sure involving either the Goldion Hammer or Crusher. Think about it, Shin Mazinger turns into a god-powered fist, which in theory could be worked to equip to the [=GaoGaiGar=] in place of [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Goldymarg]]. Awesomeness would ensue.
305* "Dynamic Magnum"?
306** Either that or "Big Bang Magnum".
307* Both have appeared in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsBX'' but no CombinationAttack occurs between them. Now Shin Mazinger and ''Anime/MazinkaiserSKL'' on the other hand did. And it was glorious.
308* That, or if ''Gurren Lagann'' and ''[=GaoGaiGar=]'' appear in the same game we can have a Goldion Hammer/[[ThisIsADrill Giga Drill Break]] combination. You know you want it.
309
310
311[[WMG: The [[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries XN-Geist]] could appear again]]
312
313It is possible that someone may have rebuilt the XN-Geist from schematics and data possibly left behind in Gilliam's world. [[spoiler: In ''Hero Senki: Project Olympus'', Gilliam did run an organization: he may have had scientists helping him build the XN-Geist and maybe a few of them did not want to see their work go to waste, so they may have stored the prototypes, engines, and data of the XN-Geist in a separate location when the main headquarters was destroyed. Given that it was an evolving machine, it's possible that there may have been other parties interested in it, given that [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Vindel Mauser]] used System-XN, it is pretty much obvious that the XN-Geist could be restored]].
314
315[[WMG:The next time a ''Super Robot Wars'' game features ''Gurren Lagann'', there will be an option for [[spoiler:Kamina]] to survive.]]
316As someone pointed out, series debuts are usually more focused on following the plot than other times the series is featured, so we can only hope for next time. Besides, anyone who doesn't want to go to the end of the series with [[spoiler:Kamina]] in the party is lying.
317* [[{{Jossed}} Officially debunked]]: [[spoiler: Kamina dies]]. Maybe after the [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Multiverse]] [[LotusEaterMachine Labyrinth]] event, but maybe not.
318** The '''next''' time. As in, ''after'' the ''Second Super Robot Wars Z''.
319** Banpresto is never going to have [[spoiler:Kamina]] simply avoid his death, because doing so would utterly shaft [[spoiler:Simon's CharacterDevelopment]]. Case in point, [[spoiler:the death of [[Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico Gai Daigouji]]]] in ''Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico''; while there is rarely a game that features ''Nadesico'' that does not allow [[spoiler:Gai]] to survive, he usually "dies" and comes back much later in the plot after the relevant CharacterDevelopment for [[Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico Akito Tenkawa]]. [[spoiler:Kamina]] will probably be made available in the Multiverse Labyrinth even, because it's close enough to the end of the series that [[spoiler:Simon]] has already become more of a badass than ever, [[spoiler:by Kamina's own admission in their home series]]; having [[spoiler:Kamina]] back would not screw up the conclusion too much. Hell, knowing his popularity, he might be recruitable in ''Saisei-hen''.
320*** {{Jossed}} again: he doesn't appear in ''Saisei-hen'' at all.
321** Gurren Lagann comes up again in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsX'' and it's adapting Lagann-hen which means Kamina is still dead. [[spoiler:And so is Kittan.]]
322
323[[WMG: Regarding the new character from ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsGaiden Super Robot Wars Masou Kishin 2: Revelation of Evil God]]'' that pilots the black [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsGaiden Cybuster]]...]]
324Blond hair/yellow-ish hair, check. Bird-based mech with black coloring? Check. Simmilar mecha to the main character, only black? Check. He could be an {{Expy}} of [[Anime/{{Dancougar}} Alan Igor]].
325* Note that his name is [[SpellMyNameWithAnS Eran/Elan]] [[Characters/MasouKishin Zenozakis]]. Eran/Elan sounds awfully similar to Alan.
326* Which also counts as a rather weird HilariousInHindsight: [[Characters/MasouKishin Masaki Andoh]] actually shouted "[[CharacterCatchphrase Yatte]] [[Anime/{{Dancougar}} Yaruze]]!" in ''Alpha Gaiden''. Now, he gets his own version of Alan.
327* The catch is they have different voice actors.
328* He could be the person that appeared in one of the still-frames of the "[[LeyLine Ley Buster]]" attack by the [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ Shurouga]]. The one with the damaged Cybuster.
329
330[[WMG: Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment will make an SRW game that only includes {{Shojo}} anime series, manga and American cartoons aimed for girls; no mecha series in sight.]]
331We can take a break on HumongousMecha and put series that have high sugar content in it. It will have the same mechanics but the series included were {{Shojo}} anime series, manga and American Cartoons aimed for girls.
332* No way. Even if they really made that (very unlikely, but not totally impossible), they won't call it SRW.
333* That's {{Jossed}} regarding ''Endless Frontier''. And it doesn't involve giant mecha so anything can happen.
334* That's only because ''Endless Frontier'' is a SpinOff a pre-existing [=SRW=] installment, set in an alternate dimension of the '''same''' [[TheVerse verse]].
335
336[[WMG: [[Manga/SgtFrog Giroro]] in ''Super Robot Wars OE'' will have one of his [[BattleCry battle cries]] being '''[[Film/ThreeHundred THIS IS! SPARTA!!]]''']]
337[[ActorAllusion Come on, you know]] [[Creator/JojiNakata you want to have that]].
338
339[[WMG: ''Anime/GoLion'', ''Anime/DairuggerXV'' and ''Anime/{{Albegas}}'' will appear together in the same game.]]
340* Together they will form the "Voltron Holy Trinity" [[note]]Similar to how Franchise/{{Gundam}}, Anime/MazingerZ and Manga/GetterRobo make up the "Original Holy Trinity" and how ''Anime/GunBuster GunBuster'', ''[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Evangelion]]'' and ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'' make up the "[[Creator/StudioGainax Gainax]] Holy Trinity".[[/note]], sharing the same universe together with good chemistry, and have a CombinationAttack together.
341* On the subject of [=GoLion=], he will also get a MidSeasonUpgrade based off of his ''[[WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender Voltron: Legendary Defender]]'' "incarnation".
342
343[[WMG: Possible series inclusions for the next trilogy]]

440* ''[[Anime/GyakutenIppatsuman Gyakuten! Ippatsuman]]''
441* ''Anime/MagicalKingGranzort''
442* ''Anime/MagneRoboGakeen''
443* ''Anime/MegatonMusashi''

448* ''Anime/AkuDaisakusenSrungle''
449* ''Anime/SSSSDynazenon''
450* ''[[Anime/GingaHyouryuuVifam Vifam]]''
451* ''VideoGame/LiveALive'''s Near Future chapter
452
453[[WMG: When ''Anime/DarlingInTheFranxx'' inevitably appears in the series, the whole ending will change.]]
454At the last second, before Hiro and Zero-Two's HeroicSacrifice, the Evangelions have a BigDamnHeroes moment where they make it so they won't have to sacrifice themselves. They live, and get to fight the other antagonists.
455
456[[WMG: The next game after ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsT'' will see the return of ''Anime/DaiGuard'']]
457There has been this early pattern starting with ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsX''
458* ''X'' has a Magic-themed OriginalGeneration... but only had ''Anime/MashinHeroWataruSeries'' as its magical rep. ''Manga/MagicKnightRayearth'' was absent.
459* ''T'' has a {{Salaryman}} themed OriginalGeneration... and ''Manga/MagicKnightRayearth'' in. Yet the anime about {{Salaryman}} saving the day in giant robots, ''Anime/DaiGuard'', wasn't in.
460
461From here, I can guess that the next game will have an OG not being about {{Salaryman}}, yet ''Anime/DaiGuard'' will be there anyway.
462
463** Unfortunately {{Jossed}}, ''Dai-Guard'' wasn't in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars30''
464
465[[WMG: The backstory for the next game will reference the events of ''Franchise/TheWarOfTheWorlds''.]]
466* As far as I know, the original novel is in the Public Domain, meaning that {{Creator/Bandai Namco}} can freely use the Martians in the novel. But even if they can't specifically include them without asking the {{Creator/HG Wells}} estate first, they could still vaguely reference the book by stating that somewhere between the 20th and 21st Centuries, Earth was attacked by an invading force from Mars (but whether they were actually inhabitants of Mars or a race that was just occupying Mars at the time will remain ambiguous). After the Invaders died off due to being unable to adapt to Earth's atmosphere, humanity reverse engineered their technology, leading to a decades-leap in technology and a {{Main/Golden Age}} of peace and space exploration.
467
468[[WMG: The next time [[VideoGame/SakuraWars Sakura Wars]] appears in SRW, it will be part of the main roster from the start rather than DLC.]]
469* One potential plot point would be helping the [[VideoGame/SakuraWars2019 the cast of the 2019 game]] rescue all of the original Combat Revues from Shadow Tokyo.
470* Or alternatively, they could have [[VideoGame/SakuraWars1996 the]] [[VideoGame/SakuraWars2ThouShaltNotDie original]] [[VideoGame/SakuraWars3IsParisBurning Combat]] [[VideoGame/SakuraWars4FallInLoveMaidens Rev]][[VideoGame/SakuraWarsSoLongMyLove ues]] meet the [[VideoGame/SakuraWars2019 New Imperial Combat Revue]] by way of having them inhabit seperate [[AlternateUniverse alternate universes]] from one another.
471
472[[WMG: There will be a SRW-style spinoff game centered around [[MagicalGirl Magical Girls]] and [[MagicalGirlWarrior Magical Girl Warriors]].]]
473* Here are the top contenders to for series to appear. [[note]] any sequel/spinoff material is expected to be grouped with their main series and there fore will not be included. [[/note]]

507** ''VideoGame/AzurLane'' (as an unorthodox series [[MoeAnthropomorphism with said girls as anthropomorphized battleships]])
508* And when ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' does get in, Madoka will have [[FinishingMove Dynamic Kill]] of [[spoiler:her final form]] while playing [[https://youtu.be/jJX3D8Gk1t0 Sagitta Luminus]], that will not have special ''quotes'' but special ''images'' of [[spoiler:her saving not only magical girls but every other TragicVillain as well]].

513* Not to mention a chance for every protagonist to beat up Kyubey!
514[[WMG: The next game will include series that still haven't been utilized since the Z Trilogy.]]
515Series of note include:
516** ''Anime/AfterWarGundamX''
517** ''Anime/TurnAGundam''
518** ''Anime/EurekaSeven''
519** ''Anime/OvermanKingGainer''
520** ''Anime/TheBigO''
521** ''Anime/UFORoboGrendizer'' [[note]] Not counting its appearance in [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsDD Super Robot Wars DD]]. [[/note]]
522** ''Anime/GenesisOfAquarion''
523** ''Anime/{{Xabungle}}''
524** ''Anime/GodSigma''
525** ''Anime/{{Gravion}}''
526** ''Anime/SuperDimensionCenturyOrguss''
527** ''Anime/SpaceWarriorBaldios''
528** ''Anime/DancougarNova''
529** ''Anime/{{DaiGuard}}''
530** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'' (the first two seasons)
531** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing'' (the TV series, NOT ''Endless Waltz'')
532** ''[[Anime/{{Gigantor}} New Tetsujin-28]]''
533** ''Anime/CodeGeass'' (''R1'' and ''R2''; story, not just units)
534
535[[WMG: When [[Anime/CodeGeass Code Geass]] reappears in another game...]]
536* Britannia will engage in a war with an American force (say, [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Graham Aker and the Union]]) for control of the North American continent.
537* The Britannian homeland will be located in the real-life British Isles instead of the North American continent.
538* Britannia will be merged with the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Atlantic]] [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny Federation]]. Makes sense given how both factions tend to express [[FantasticRacism Fantastic Racism]] towards others.
539* There WILL be a way to save Princess Euphemia from her canon death from the start rather than have her be revealed to be alive [[GuideDangIt via unlockable route]].
540** In fact, saving Euphie could be a requirement for gaining [[HeelFaceTurn Cornelia as an]] [[SecretCharacter unlockable character]].
541* There will be no [[TimeSkip time-skip]] between R1 and R2. The two seasons will be merged into a continuous story.
542** One way they could do that is combine the two Special Administration Events into one by way of having the "Million Zeros" event take place at Euphie's SAZ rather than the Euphinator incident.
543
544[[WMG: [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamAGE Gundam AGE's]] story will go through MAJOR revisions the next time it appears.]]
545* Generation 1 will be the sole focus of the game but will combine characters and story elements from the other two Generations, [[AdaptedOut taking out certain characters like Asemu, Kio, and the older versions of Flit]] while keeping others like Arisa, Zeheart and Fram.
546** They could also go the same route with Generation 2
547* The Gundam AGE's alternate Armor Wears from the Cosmic Drive/Universal Accel video games will appear.
548* The three Generations will be combined into one story with Kio and the younger versions of Flit and Asemu [[AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul being brothers instead of father, son, and grandson.]]
549* Zera Gins will be [[AdaptedOut adapted out]] and [[BigBad Ezelcant]] will be pilot the [[FinalBoss Vaga Gear Sid]] in the final level for ''Gundam AGE''.
550
551[[WMG: The next console game will be an [[UpdatedReRelease spruced-up remake]] of one of the handheld titles, such as [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsW W]] or [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ the Z trilogy]].]]
552I imagine most North American players missed out the chance to play these games because they were Japanese-exclusive at the times they released. Now that Bandai-Namco is pushing for SRW to be released, with SRW 30 being a big success on Steam, this could be a prime opportunity to release the more popular handheld titles with the Tactical Area Selection mechanics of 30 as well as probably expand and add more series to their rosters to make the remakes more unique from the originals.
553* For [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsW Super Robot Wars W]]
554** Franchise/{{Patlabor}} could be added in as it seems to blend in with [[Literature/FullMetalPanic FMP's]] more realistic mechanic aesthetic.
555** [[Literature/FullMetalPanic Full Metal Panic's]] story could be expanded to include ''Invisible Victory'' as well material from the rest of the novels.
556** WesternAnimation/{{Voltron Legendary Defender}} could be used instead of Anime/{{GoLion}} to increase appeal to Westerners
557** For Anime/{{GaoGaiGar}}, [[Literature/KingOfKingsGaogaigarVsBetterman GaoGaiGo]] could appear, but only the mecha itself and not the story from the novel.
558* For [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ the Z Trilogy]]
559** The story of Anime/{{CodeGeass}} could be expanded by including [[Anime/CodeGeassAkitoTheExiled the Akito OVAs]] and/or [[Manga/CodeGeassOzTheReflection the Oz manga]].
560** With the recent deal between Harmony Gold, Big West, and Tatsunoko in place to bring more Macross to the West, Anime/{{MacrossFrontier}} could still be kept in the game's roster.
561** [[AdaptationAmalgamation The plots of the PS2 Z1 game and the two PSP Z2 games could be combined into one plot]].
562
563[[WMG: How ''Literature/LegendOfTheGalacticHeroes'' will be implemented]]
564* Since the franchise is now including SpaceOpera series, this one is an unavoidable candidate as one of the best anime period. The major standpoint of how there is no clear good guy vs bad guy but GoodVersusGood would make things interesting and comparable to how ''Z2'' did with ZEXIS vs ZEUTH. In this case, there would be one group supporting Reinhard and his Galactic Empire while the other supports Yang and the Free Planets Alliance.
565** The Reinhard/Imperial side could include series that feature medieval eras, protagonists serving TheKingdom or a noble version of TheEmpire, and have lots of HoYay and LesYay subtext.
566** The Yang/Alliance side would be more of the usual GoodRepublicEvilEmpire fashion and LaResistance forces fighting for their freedom.
567
568[[WMG: The next game will forgo the Universal Century Gundam shows in favor of Alternate Universes.]]
569To appeal more to Westerners, the next game will focus on Gundam shows that were released in the U.S. in some form:
570* ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Gundam Wing]]'', ''[[Anime/MobileFighterGGundam G Gundam]]'', and ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Gundam SEED]]'', which aired on the old Creator/{{Toonami}} block.
571* ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Gundam 00]]'', which aired on the Creator/SyFy channel.
572* ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamIronBloodedOrphans IRON-BlOODED ORPHANS]]'', which aired on the revived Creator/{{Toonami}} block.
573* ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamTheWitchFromMercury The Witch from Mercury]]'', which is currently streaming with a dub on Website/{{Crunchyroll}}.
574* ''[[Anime/AfterWarGundamX Gundam X]]'': While it never aired on American TV, ''X'' does seem to have a strong cult following among the Western fanbase.
575
576If it's ''absolutely'' mandatory that a Universal Century show '''must''' be part of the roster, than it may be possible to include;
577* ''[[Manga/MobileSuitGundamTheOrigin Gundam: The Origin]]'', as it also aired on the revived Toonami block.
578** Despite the fact that the OVA adapts the chapters of the manga detailing Char's origins and contrary to what the OVA's promo materials may tell you, ''The Origin'' is a retelling of the original series, NOT a direct prequel. So it could technically count as an "AlternateUniverse" despite being set in the Universal Century.
579** And since ''The Origin'' is set during the One-Year War, this could also be a chance to bring back the OVA series that were set during that period, such as ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundam0080WarInThePocket War in the Pocket]]'' or ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamThe08thMSTeam The 08th MS Team]]'' (especially since they both aired on the old Toonami block).
580* ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamUnicorn Gundam Unicorn]]'', since its TV cut aired on Toonami.
581
582[[WMG: The next ''Super Robot Wars'' game will take place on a FictionalEarth.]]
583In a similar vein to the Earth from ''VideoGame/AceCombat's'' "Strangereal" universe, the Earth of the next game will still be called Earth, but will have different continents and nations to house the characters from different series. This would allow the game incorporate series like ''Anime/EurekaSeven'', ''Anime/CodeGeass'', and ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamIronBloodedOrphans'' more easily without worrying about real-world geopolitical implications and would serve as an alternative to fusing/hopping dimensions.
584* For example, in the canon of ''Anime/CodeGeass'' the Holy Britannian Empire is located on the North American continent. When ''Code Geass'' and ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'' were brought together in ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars Super Robot Wars Z2]]'', the countries of Britannia and the Union were brought together by a Space-Time Quake, forcing the Union government to merge with Britannia. Having a FictionalEarth setting would allow Britannia to have a continent of its own, separate from other governments set in North America, without having to resort to multi-dimensional shenanigans.
585** Alternatively, Britannia and the Union can share the same continent, but as separate competing nations.
586* The FictionalEarth setting can easily incorporate the various [[FictionalCountry Fictional Countries]] from the various ''Gundam'' shows, such as [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Azadistan]], [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Orb]], and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing the Sanc Kingdom]]. Names for continents can also be used, such as Ameria (which is the name used in ''[[Anime/TurnAGundam Turn A]]'' and ''[[Anime/GundamReconguistaInG G-Reco]]'' for the North American continent).
587
588[[WMG: In the next game with ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Gundam 00]]'', the Orbital Elevators will be AdaptedOut.]]
589Because if ''00'' shares an in-game universe with the Universal Century, then considering how the show made a point to show how fragile they are in spite of their size, the Elevators couldn't possibly survive the numerous [[ColonyDrop Colony Drops]] the Universal Century is infamous for.

593[[folder:Other]]
594[[WMG: [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Lamia Loveless]] and [[Characters/EndlessFrontier Aschen Blodel]] are directly based on [[Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha Signum]] IN-STORY (not just a ShoutOut).]]
595It's well known that [[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries Gilliam Yeager]], after his stint in the final episode of the "[[FanNickname Classic Timeline]]" (''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars4 Super Robot Wars F Final]]''), goes back to jumping through dimensions and went back to evil. It is possible that at one point, he stumbled into Mid-Childa. Absorbing its knowledge so far, Gilliam, at that time using the name "Helios Olympus" quickly warranted fame and notorietry, which caught the attention of the Time-Space Administration Bureau. Signum was dispatched to take care of Gilliam, but he quickly overpowered her. Signum was captured and experimented by Gilliam, with not much effect rather than simply taking her data before she was rescued by the rest of the TSAB and Gilliam eventually jumped to the [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Shadow-Mirror]] AlternateUniverse. Thinking that Signum's data may help their progress, he hands down the data towards [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Lemon Browning]], who was just finished creating W-06, and eventually used Signum's data to create Aschen, and later Aschen's data, which is from Signum, is used to create Lamia.
596
597[[WMG:All HumanAliens are actually descendants of one or more of the various ancient civilizations from Earth.]]
598Think about it: if advanced civilizations like the [[Anime/MazingerZ Mikene Empire]] or the [[Anime/BraveRaideen Mulians]] can build HumongousMecha, they can probably build spaceships, too. At some time in the distant past, the colonized other worlds, which eventually developed their own culture & some forgot the origins. A few even made minor alterations to themselves such as [[Anime/VoltesV Horns]] or [[Anime/RahXephon different chemicals in their blood]].
599* The funny thing is, this was actually a major plot point in ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Super Robot Wars Alpha 3]]''. The [[Anime/SuperDimensionFortressMacross Protoculture]] seems to be the {{Precursors}} of pretty much everyone, most especially the Earthlings, [[Anime/SuperDimensionFortressMacross Zentreadi]], [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Balmarians]], and [[Anime/SpaceRunawayIdeon Buff Clan]].
600** The [[{{Precursors}} First People]] created the Protoculture, who created the Zantreadi, Buff Clan and modern Earthlings. The First People eventually left Earth (a handful of them stayed, known as people of Mu) and sent the seed of their race to Balmar with the Gan Eden, while the First People themselves colonized on Solo where they created the Ideon and perished.
601*** However, that's only the ''Alpha'' series universe. If you are going by the ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration'' universe though then the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsJudgment Fury]] would definitely count as the progenitors of the human race; who's to say that the moon was the only ship the Fury had as a sleeper ship? Others of their kind may still be across the universe on other planets and created life there to inhabit those worlds eventually.
602*** Provided the Fury even ''appear'' in ''Original Generation'' and are stated to be the Earthlings' {{Precursors}}...
603
604[[WMG: [[Manga/GetterRobo Getter Rays]], [[Anime/GaoGaiGar G-Power]], [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 GN Particles]] & [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Spiral Power]] are all manifestations of the same force.]]
605All are [[TechnicolorScience glowing green]], all enable the laws of physics to be over-ridden by RuleOfCool, all respond to emotions & all but one start with G, which, when you look closely is actually kind of a spiral.
606* Confirmed in the case of Getter Rays and The Power in ''Alpha''. They, along with [[Anime/GoShogun Beamler]], [[PsychicPowers Psychodrivers]], [[Anime/GunBuster STMC]], Anima Spiritia and [[Anime/SpaceRunawayIdeon the Ide]], are all aspect of the AkashicRecords (fate).
607* [[Manga/GetterRobo The Invaders]] and [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Anti-Spirals]] consider [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Setsuna F. Seiei]] a threat to their plans in the ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ Second Super Robot Wars: Saisei-hen]]''.
608-->[[Manga/GetterRobo Professor Saotome]]: I'll show you true evolution! Show you the future of mankind!
609[[WMG:[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Kaworu Nagisa]] is a Time Diver.]]
610Which is why he seems to be aware of other ''Super Robot Wars'' games he's been in, despite them being in alternate universes. This ''may'' apply to his fellow ''F Final'' end-bosses [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Paptimus Scirocco]] and [[Anime/{{Dancougar}} Shapiro Keats]] as well. In Kaworu's case, this might actually extend to ''canon'' as well: see [[WMG/NeonGenesisEvangelion the Evangelion WMG page]].
611* If this is not the case, he and the others might just be in on Gilliam's dimension-hopping technique.
612
613[[WMG: [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsK Mist Rex]] is from a race that is part of the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Zuvorg Alliance]].]]
614
615Not much to substantiate this one, unfortunately, but his machines had a Greek theme to their names and attacks, similar to the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Inspectors]] and possibly the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Guests]].
616* The only Inspector unit that was named in Greek was the Diskastes; the rest, including Guest units, don't have a ThemeNaming going on.
617
618[[WMG: At one point, Setsuna F. Seisei will don [[Anime/CodeGeass Zero's mask]].]]
619And he will recite his famous line from [[Franchise/UltraSeries another series]], "Zero! Ore no na ha Zero!".
620* Alternatively, Setsuna will become the host of Zero himself as a SecretCharacter (possibly resulting in Saiji Crossroads taking over for him in the 00 Raiser) if Ultraman was to ever be part of a game.
621
622[[WMG: The PowerOfLove is the equivalent of Spiral Energy.]]
623
624[[WMG: They will turn the absence of shows starring Creator/AkiraKamiya into a plot point later in the game]]
625Considering multiverse shenanigans, maybe some forces of evil did recognize the threat of many shows that has Kamiya starring them, and so sealed them somewhere (most likely after the first Z game where afterwards they really start dabbling about the multiverse a lot more). It's only after defeating this force that Terada would re-introduce those shows, citing that the time is right at the moment.
