I never really cared for more "old-school/pure" mecha like Mazinkaiser, watched one episode and it put me off of mecha (and anime) for a long time.

That said, I like the more "modern" mecha that uses that theme as a vehicle for character driven drama. Some examples would be the recent Gundams and Code Geass, along with Evangelion. While the mecha is some nice eye candy, the real substance is what happens outside the battlefield and inside the cockpit.
