The one which Lelouch is the main char is Code Geass. Nice choice
I second the Macross F and Gundam 00 recommendations, and also suggest Gundam Wing and Patlabor. Patlabor is more focused on the chars than on the mechas tough, but it is the closest to "real robot" i've watched. |

Both Macross Frontier and Gundam 00 are good choices.
If you liked Gurren, then I suggest GaoGaiGar: King of braves (TV), then Brave King GaoGaiGar Final and Brave King GaoGaiGar Final Grand Glorious Gathering (TV) as a special. This show is about Hotblood, and gattai with trains lol |

I say "Neon Genesis Evangelion". That anime is the classics upon classics when it comes to mecha.
I also highly recommend "Gun X Sword". Another of my favourites and unlike any other mecha you'll ever see. T'was produced, directed, and drawn by the same people that done Code Geass. Although I personally found it a lot better. Just my opnion. |

Seconding Heroic Age. Also, watch Sousei no Aquarion and Sousei no Aquarion: Wings of Betrayal (OAV). Another good series (And with awesome music!), IMO. |

I just finished watching Appleseed and Appleseed Ex Machena.. both got a good storyline with mecha suits (not giant robots like Gundam or Pat Labor) ..however both are just movies not a series.
Best thing about them is the animation style, its 3D anime ..not like FF Spirits within..but just Anime in 3D like in games ..but better (specialy the Ex Mechina) |

I suggest Gasaraki, one of the more realistic use of mecha though I will say it gets Eva ish at the end.
Just my personal favorite though is the English dub of Dai Guard. It's about office workers piloting a giant mecha to save japan from monsters :3. But seriously watch the dub and not the sub. The office jokes that come off as well when you have to read them and the english voice actors really do a great job once they settle into their roles (about 3-4 eps in) |
