Sakugan is currently one of the anime titles that are airing this Fall 2021 season, and it's definitely worth checking out (even if you aren't an avid mecha fan!).

Sakugan combines mecha and science-fiction with a wholesome family element, seeing as the main characters of the story are father and daughter. It follows the adventures of Gagumber, a single dad, and Memenpu, a 9-year-old genius. Humans now live in a world located underground called the Labyrinth, and the settlements are called Colonies. One of the most dangerous jobs one can have in this world is a Marker — someone who explores the remaining unknown areas of the Labyrinth in an attempt to map them. Memenpu's curious mind can't help but want to become a Marker, so Gagumber eventually agrees to go with her.
