It's an utter trolling on how over the top those late 80s and 90s super robot shows were.

I dunno about Go Bots, but Transformers certainly went hard. I still remember it as the only cartoon of my childhood where the good guys routinely lost compared to everything else where the good guys always prevailed every episode.

Transformers really wasn't what I'd call a super robot show though...

A super robot fight usually went something like this one, from UFO Grandizer from the 70s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj0W7vXMtgM#t=1m00

With the theme music, yelling attack names, and gratuitous violence on the monster of the week.

What I believe Bravern is doing is something like this fight from Dangaioh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoLpm97WYBw
