OH MY GOD, EPIC.

i can't describe it in words, screencap time!

the two i forgot to get and am too lazy to go get are:
rossiu holding the gun to his head (lol summoning his persona)
and his hair tie being broken. (this happened a few seconds after i mentioned it should happen in IRC)

(click the images for the bigger versions)

This was a good episode. Simon looked so damn cool at the end. I don't really like Yoko's new outfit, but I loved Kittan's reaction to it.

You forgot the super rad makeovers.



Although I liked this episode, though mainly because I actually like Rossiu. *shot* Though the face punch was pretty epic.

I could've watched this a few hrs ago!? XD

Anyways, this episode was awesome as usual, though i wouldn't quite call it epic. There were some funny parts like the ones screenshoted above. I'm like when there is a wardrobe change. The new costumes are kinda funny looking but great none the less. Only 3 episodes left, looking forward to them.

Amazing episode as always. Argh and the horrible waiting time for the next episode comes again.

Dissapointed that Rossiu didn't kill himself after all he has done. But ah well perhaps theres hope he will die in a future episode.

Oh wow, the old gang is all together now, back doing what they do best. Kicking ass!

I like the way Simon went through all of the gangs names....wow.

I think all hate for Rossiu has dissipated...

Yey the flag is back! I thought Old Coco was ironing a wedding dress....wow I'm stupid.

Another awesome episode. This series truly has the most "F*CK YEAH!!" moments in anime history.

Favorite moments:
-The Punch heard round the world.
-Gurren Lagann's First warp through dimensions
-Lagann carrying the flag into orbit.
-The wonderfull shot of Kamina's grave.
-The gang shot at the end
and last but not least, Kittans reaction to Yoko's new space suit.

As I watch every episode, I get the feeling that im watching a series that 20 years from now will be still hailed as one of the best anime series ever. Its truly an epic anime.

This episode was worth it for the few moments of Kittan & Yoko's boobs.

I loled my ass off.

I also liked how, it seemed against his own will or knowing Simon has become Kamina in nearly everyway.

FUCK YEAH! SIMON FALCON PUNCH!

Favorite Scene-Rossiu grasping Simon's hand.

With this I forgive Rossiu. He has redeemed himself.

And that new suit that Yoko is wearing is so...freaking...hot.

And that giant Dai-Gurren Dan flag that Old Man Coco made. Epic. Win.

And that shot of Kamina's sword and cape. Epic.

And finally the shot of Captain GARlock. Beyond EPIC.

I hate what they did to Viral's outfit though.

What to say ? Another great episode ^^

So Rossiu wanted to commit suicide ? Teleportation to save him and a good punch in the face :)
I suppose the Rossiu's haters will calm down now. And he's lucky, Kinon is in love with him^^

I also loved Leeron's speeches... They don't understand anything... Earth will be saved by a bunch of big fools with lot of fighting spirit :)

Anyway, so it seems that Simon has become like Kamina but with stronger mind, he is so different now than how he was on the firsts episodes. I love it.

I hope this episode did a lot to settle down the Rossiu hate, even though he was never not cool as an adult.

Yoko's tits seem to have gotten bigger, which is to say TOO BIG. They look Eiken-sized.

Rossiu being stopped from killing himself was a good thing. He was a cowardly criminal and suicide would have been the last step in his flight from danger and responsibility. I have to say that Simon's lack of anger was not such a good idea story-wise. Rossiu (and his buddies) had commited terrible crimes (out of fear and despair) and feeling anger toward him would have been justified. It was good however that he was advised to keep on living and try to become a better person. Nevertheless, he should have been made to account for his crimes and not left in control of the government! (Really that was completely absurd!).
Kinon wins hands down as the most mediocre, hypocritical and patheticl character ever! She, who supported Rossiu in his murderous folly, actually asks the man she had condemned to death to help her find her criminal lover! What is worse is that she is still finding excuses for Rossiu! "He was not going to kill you for selfish reasons" she says - just plain disgusting... The fact that she still is infatuated with Rossiu after all that was also quite repulsive to witness. I have rarely ever seen a fictional character having done so many despicable things. If only she had accepted the horror of her crimes and the foolishness of her attitude, she might have been more likeable. I hope she doesn't reappear in the series too much because she really gets on my nerves. :)
Anyway, it was an interesting episode, though, once again, I would have liked if Rossiu and his fascist buddies were not left in charge of the government.

Good thing that he didn't kill himself. I still like him, even after the trial and all. He's a good guy.

Leeron: Genetic diversity via sexual reproduction is the key to evolution.
Them: wtf? o.O
Leeron: -sigh- Love changes the universe!

'Even I don't know what's going on here.'
'Rossiu, are you a monster? o.o'
XD

'Would you die if I wished hard enough?' LOL, I'm switching from LeeronxGimmy to ViralxLeeron xD

...they're WARPING. What's next? Haha xD
(Kittan, I know.)

Ha, and I knew Coco was ironing the flag, right away. Andand somehow, Viral makes me drool.
