Part of this, as dumb as it is, is partially alluded to in the manuals that come with the model kits, because Bandai often stuffs lore in there.
As we’ve seen, while the data storms incurred by GUND-Format usage on the scale of Mobile Suits (presumably even a human-scale full body prosthetic like we saw in the prologue wouldn’t generate enough data to be deadly to the individual), are extremely deadly… but the turn around is you can command vast levels of overwhelming power against non-GUND Mobile Suits. Aerial at every form (Lfrith, Aerial, Rebuild) is capable in one suit of easily dispatching an entire unit of similarly equipped MS on it’s own, and now as we’ve seen with the Ur and Thorn they have Bit Mobile Suit technology in the form of the Gundvolva units, which further allow a single pilot to be the equivalent of a decent sized MS squad… albeit potentially at the cost of their health, if not their life, as they burn out their nervous systems processing that much sensory information.
With that in mind, given Delling’s presence and the already semeingly dominant Spacian power bloc, the motivation of demonizing GUND-Format in order to remove one of the most potentially threatening technologies to Spacian dominance from the board seems viable as one of the factors involved. And given that plenty of Earthians saw their loved ones be ravaged by the data storms that resulted from GUND-Arm usage, it becomes easy enough to sway the Earthians into giving up that advantage in the terror, fear, pain and loss they experienced from the war and the loss of loved ones to the machines that waged it.
EDIT: Here we go, the relevant manual bits from the Lfrith, Beguir-Beru, Aerial and Michaelis
Reminder as well about Permet that the GUND-Format uses Permet in the construction of the suit (presumably this is what the Shell Units, those glowing parts, are made of), but for a pilot to be able to interface with them they also must be enhanced with Permet as well in some form, though they haven’t explained just what form that takes; we’ve heard “Enhanced Humans” used in regards to Elan, and that’s the term overall for Permet-enhanced individuals (so Sophie and Norea would also be Enhanced Humans as well, as well as Prospera/Elnora)
Imagine being an Edo-era Japanese peasant and one day you just see an elephant being walked down the road.

You might like Otaku Elf
Premise: The world is basically hogwarts magic. And the wizards are just even worse shits
Along comes this guy who has no magic, but he's just really, really good at pumping iron
So he beats up all the shitty wizards and tries to become head wizard
I recommend Silver Spoon if you haven't seen it, it's about kids going to a farming school to learn about caring for animals and I found it pretty charming
Yeah, it's great. I read a description of it that called it "Saitama at Hogwarts" but it somehow works really well. Maybe because a certain wizarding world author was being so damn annoying recently, but it feels downright cathartic at times.
Edit: Because it's also "Saitama at hogwarts, and he doesn't take no shit, and protects the bullied"
Only I think the mc of this series is nowhere near Saitama's level. Just ridiculously strong.
Edit: Harry Squatter, the boy who lifted
Not sure about the transported to our world but she's got a similar thing going as Umaru where in public she's a pristine shrine maiden in Japan and in private she goes goblin mode with anime and manga
really hope the folks at studio gaga took some time over this last break to reconsider the way they're telling the story, but i'm not really optimistic tbh
(the negativity is mostly personal griping, i'm just really not feeling the post-miura chapters for various reasons)
Yes.
Ish.
She is an Elf, transported to our world
Before that, she had to content herself with (ep3 spoiler)

Mash is a great comedy protagonist because he has no trouble cutting through people's bullshit and self-pretensions and letting them know exactly how cringe they are being.
Hidive.
I just finished Ichigo Mashimaro and really enjoyed it, but the art style and characters might not be for everyone.
It was also a very personal series for Arakawa as well, as she grew up in the dairy country of Hokkaido (hence why her author avatar is a Holstein cow.) It also discusses some darker aspects of Japanese and in particular rural life that aren't normally touched, as well:
There's also an arc where one of the students is looking to make it to the major leagues (and it's shown he has the skills, so this isn't idle dreaming) to save his family farm. A major part of this plan is to get the school team to Koshien, the major high school baseball tournament that is heavily scouted.

Pretty standard demon kill stuff.
It does have an indifferent/mean, chain-smoking, smoked glasses-wearing, busty lady in it, so that's cool.
Y'know, Birdie Wing
Technically it should be the other way around, Ga-Rei-Zero was here first! /hipster
