36. Series: ??? Named After: A protective God of a fictional island.

Neo Ranga

Bad (ambiguous) clue then guys :P

Fafner's set on the island of Tatsumiya (fictional) and is about a kid piloting a giant robot called "Fafner" (after a norse god) to protect the island. The series is named after the robot (and consequently, the God)

ie. it also fits your clue perfectly :P

27: Series: ??? Named After: The "divine" game played on a holographic playing field, with thought controlled "fighters".

Angelic Layer

Is the robot actually considered a god in Fafner? Even if the robot is named after a god, that god doesn't protect the island.

16. Series:Named After: The main characters Police Machine assistant.

If its not Appleseed then ill have to go with Patlabor.
