Nobody knows. It's one of the great mysteries of the era.

The same reason gotoubun is popular.

It's just the same shit over and over, the color wars, the nation wars, the toubun wars.

I don’t get why Haganai got popular either

Mecha musume + international harem.

I have no idea. France/Germany lezzing it could have explained it with bringing in the /u/ crowd (it would still be bad though) but IS didn't even have that. A mystery for the ages indeed.

God, I love her so much.

The harem's best girl being voiced by Hanazawa, probably.

It's just the waifus, the success of these type of stories depend a lot on. The female cast. For every harem Rom-com that made its big break, there are surely 3 that sunk to oblivions.

What volume is this from?

Mecha musume harem, whats not to like? It predates Hundred and Bahamut, which surprisingly did better, considering what happened to IS few years after its release.

Did they ever explain why only girls could use them?

Because God abandoned us a long time ago.

why do we keep repeating the same actions and making the same mistakes? Why can't we learn and achieve change?

Try 3 dozen, the market is incredibly over saturated with the same shitty manga following the same shitty formula

Mecha musume almost always sells. Also hot gaijin girls. Female dominated setting also helped, otaku love stuff like that.

If people in charge of this were not idiots they would make a yuri spin-off with mecha designs by Humikane and swim in cash.

Nope. In-universe, Tabane would know but won't do anything to alleviate it.

It's ancient alien tech and all cores come from one place in Germany or something. Tabane probably wants to prepare humanity for alien invasion.

Those are my favorite though.

Most popular of the school battle harem genre which is dead. Kind of like isekai soon.
