| Viral FTW in this ep, I'm really liking him. Boota ftw too, crazy boob loving rodent. Cythomander or whatever is annoying and I want him to die, but I'm glad they didn't kill him off in this ep, that'd be really boring. Short-hair Nia is cute as well as her cooking attempts, but poor Rossiu, rofl. Looking forward to 14~. |
| Another awesome episode. Everything was just right. Cute Nia, Hot Yoko, cool Simon and a good dose of funny. Air battle's ftw~ and the fight against Viral was sweet too. And to top it all off we get a preview of an episode that can potentially be epic. Definitely looking forward to it. |
 |
| This episode was awesome. I'm really liking Simon now that he's kinda gotten over things... And the air battle had so many good elements. Drill-slinging, flying Dai-Gurren kick... can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| New upgrades YEAH! Haha for a minute there, i thought the same, wtf Gurren Lagann doing Spiderman? =P |
 |
| Flying kick ftw. Simon ftw. Viral ftw. Anyways, wow@the animation of the scene with Yoko telling Simon that she loved Kamina. Next week's title seems to suggest someone dies. <_<; Aren't getting a new ED soon? |
     |
| I'm sure you all recall that Boota is constantly sitting on Simon's shoulder. Well then, I declare by the transitive property that Kamina's penis touches Simon's shoulder nearly every day ;) (I'm sure someone has a fetish for it.) |
| But wait, that'd also mean Yoko's boobs touched Simon's shoulder. This is getting awkward xD So uh, I think, something happened while I was watching these episodes. I might've skipped 13? I'm not sure. I have watched 14 and 15, so I guess when I comment those ones I'll find out what went wrong. lol. |
 |
| And with that flykick this show finally gets a score of 10 from me, haha. I like a villain with honour, Viral isnt so bad. I absolutely love the pilot of the Dai-Gurren, he's so hilarious. He looks like he belongs in One Piece. |
"I'm starting to think mal is run by Xinil generating electricity on a bicycle." - idklol |
| Kick ass episode. And was it just me, or was the animation after the battle (where Yoko was talking with Simon) really smooth? |

Aokaado said: My thoughts exactly. For some reason I kind of like Viral, and his inquisitions are finally going to answer my question of "what the hell are the beastmen exactly?" |

| we're finally about to learn what beastmen are. sweet. okay, so i actually have discovered i really DON'T like nia with her new hair. It makes her look like she's 10 :\ And it was so cliche to have her be bad at cooking. i really hate the yoko and simon moments. okay, so i guess i'm just not a fan of yoko.... |
| Simon vs. Viral ...wasn't that bad. It was a good episode overall. Nia's new clothes are sxy. Nice to see yoko have a decent part in an episode, its been a while. |
  "What happens when we die?" I know that the ones who love us will miss us. |
| Oh my god. That was the best single anime episode I have seen in my entire life. |
     |
| hmmmmm, i'm getting a sneaking suspicion that Viral is gonna kill the spiral king and be the final enemy. they seem to be building Viral up and the Spiral King is not such a great bad guy especially if they fight with ganmen |

Mani said: I think that Yoko will fall 4 Simon ;) It's just a matter of time (and Epizods). I HOPE Yoko will fall for Simon ;) Viral earned honor points, he was cool ^^ |
 |
| Nice episode. I was kind of neutral towards Viral in the earlier episode, but he's growing on me. Nia's bad cooking was hilarious-she's so happily oblivious to how horrible her food is. xD; Simon is somehow immune to it, though. Is it me, or was the animation quality higher than usual when Yoko was talking to Simon after the battle about that she loved Kamina? That scene was beautiful. |
| Nia became a mere cook.D: I wanted to see her become a Ganmen pilot. Also, Yoko was NOT injured enough to stop piloting. What the hell was Simon thinking? Yeah...protect her...BY LEAVING HER OUTSIDE OF THE GANMEN. *facepalm* A lot of parts of this had great, very detailed animation. I also liked the part inside of the ship. Also, Viral gained points in this episode for me as well. He was only somewhat positive for me before, now I really like him. I always thought the Beastmen were some sort of experiment in transhumanism by the Helix King for world domination and it worked...until now. And all the underground places were done long ago in an attempt to escape his tyrannical rule. I guess I'm about to find out. Oh hey, I forgot to mention that I was happy to get another upgrade again. I was waiting for another upgrade! |

| I will say it again: Viral is awesome! I knew Nia's cooking was going to be bad, but it seems Simon has no tastebuds! |

 |
| Lol Gurren Lagann with the SpiderMan action :3 When he attached the wings to his back, that was major win haha. I feel hella sorry for Viral, but that aerial battle between them was sicccck xD Best scene in this episode, The flying kick from Dai-Gurren :3. Also Viral standing down was pretty cool. |

| <('-'<) <( '-' )> (>'-')> |
| it twas a good episode but how was simon able to eat nia's cooking and think it was really good? must have a stomach of nails ;D |
| Great episode, excellent battles again. Dai-Gurren's flying kicks were EPIC, and so was the Simon vs Viral battle. It's good to see Viral has some honor, he's a "good" bad guy ^^ |
| This episode was the BEST episode in a while. The last few have been good not great. This one was great. Largely because it had a lot more Yoko and didn't focus on Nia for the first time in forever. Good character development episode for Yoko, and it gave us a few hints of NiaxSimon, which is the pairing I was rooting for from day one even though I know it won't happen. Also a great episode for Viral's development. Every time he appears I like him a little bit more. And the flying kick by the Dai-Gurren? How can you not love that? My one complaint is that Nia just becomes more and more of a complete cliche. Cute, perfectly sweet girl who can't cook. Gee, haven't seen that before. |

NeloDeath said: The spider-man reference was awesome... and is there anything that Lagann can't combine with? lol spider-man refrence? wt spiderman refrence? |
| Nice air battle, and I liked actually seeing Viral vs. Simon... Simon is pretty cool now that he's gotten over Kamina's death. I feel bad for Rossiu that he had to eat Nia's cooking, blegh... Isn't there anything Nia can do aside from look cute and act brave when it counts? |
| Damn these powerups. Gives me the creeps. |
| I was surprised that Viral actually had some pride and noble actions in him O_o |
 |
| Viral is one of my favourite villains out there. I mean seriously, you have to have some serious guts if you're disobeying your general/whatever his rank is, just to win with somebody on your own terms, with honour. And after that go and ask the one most powerful dude on earth: what the hell is our opponent, are we really superior to him?... Me likey. I hope he doesn't die. Or at least dies really epically. (because if he were to make a heel face turn, he'd probably undergo really massive amounts of badass decay.) |

| Viral just got awesome. Boota of course, sneaky as always. |
 |
| HAHAHA the big four represent the four elements |
| last episode were the amazing underwater scenes... now it's the skyscenes... just WOW. I really like who the team had been upgrading and learning new stuff, now it's flight!! |
 |
| Simon was great in this episode. |
| Don't know if I missed it these past episode. But im glad Kamina is gone from the opening. Out with the dead. In with what will be tomorrow. Episode was pretty damn good. Theres always room for ship to ship battles. Totally saw Nias cooking being terrible and the reason Rossiu was sick And ah god damnit, Cliff hanger. |
