My rule is give every show the first 6-8 episodes to interest you. But for Gurren Lagann and KLK, just stick with it. Trigger only goes upward from the start.

Gurren Lagann is fricken great. Until the ending. Don't watch the ending. Kill la Kill honestly bored me halfway through.

I thought TTGL was very overrated and dropped it 9 episodes in.

TTGL starts out poor and gets better as it goes on (although episode 4 isn't just poor; its shit tier bad done by a different director).
Kill La Kill is disappointing from beginning to end.


TTGL starts out ok actually, then completely loses all sense.

I really can vouch for Gurren Laggan. ^^ Really got good at some point. :] (not going to tell you when)
I don't know about Kill La Kill, its fairly amusing to me, but I can't say its your cup of tea.

THAT'S what's wrong with it. They were better off living underground, making the whole story not just pointless, but a step in the goddamn wrong direction.

Honestly, the ending makes me laugh. X'-D
That's a "Gainax" ending. And that's not why I can't stand this anime.

I always believe that KLK was not as manly as TTGL, and it was not as crazy as PSG
It is so dense. Every single image has so many things going on.

Do not be deceived.

If you are not a pre-buscent boy with esteem issues, Gurren Lagann is not for you.
KlK actually tells a story with memorable characters and a more intricate plot. It's not just "moh spiral power!", the fights are actually interesting with actual dynamics.

Basically, for anyone who watched it as an adult, TTGL is just decent. Crappy middle, but still decent.


Way to generalize the shit out of people.

I liked TTGL more because it was a lot more epic. Both series were going for "over-the-top" and TTGL just did that better. I disagree with KLK having more memorable characters (eg. Kamina & Nina). I also found them to be equally funny (maybe KlK a bit more because of its clothing elements).

I do agree though, that Ragyo was a better villain and KlK's OST was better (although it's been a while since I've heard TTGL's). I also thoroughly enjoyed KlK, loved it like I loved TTGL. I don't really understand the hate it's getting.

I don't really understand your last comment either, idk how it's a step in the wrong direction when the entire species was able to move forward as a species, living in a civilized era and whatnot.

Wow. Didn't think it would be taken that seriously, but yeah I was exaggerating in response to some other comments. People can prefer one to the other.

As for some of your points, I don't think that "Over-The-Top" is really something that can be quantified between series. If you are talking about the scale, then KlK was obviously going for something much more small scale than TTGL, so I think they are completely incomparable in that regard. It would be silly for KlK to go for exploding galaxies.

And honestly your examples of memorable characters didn't do much because my automatic reaction was "of course Kamina and.....who the heck was Nina again?" 2 (subbing in Simon) hardly makes up for the images that instantly come to mind when anyone mentions Satsuki, or Ragyo, or Mako or Gamagoori, or Nui.
It was really just more of a general observation that when it comes to GL, Kamina or Simon are all that really come to viewers' minds, while mutliple characters do so for KlK.

By "over-the-top", I'm talking about the outrageous/ridiculous vibe both shows give off. Be it from their speech, comedy, fight scenes, whatever it may be. The same excitement I had with TTGL was also there with KlK.

I meant Nia lol X_X

Mixing up her name doesn't really help my case but Nia is one of the most memorable characters to me, speaking in terms of all anime.



I will agree that KlK had more memorable characters (I friggin' loved Mako and her family, Gamagoori, Satsuki)
but TTGL also had its fair share (Viral, Kittan, Yoko).
