TTGL just gets more and more epic each episode. There's always been something awesome about former enemies becoming allies like with Piccolo and Vegeta in DBZ :P

viral = hot!!! >.<
bet there is viralXsimon yaoi out now mmm


...when they were staring at each other right after Simon told him to pilot Gurren, I thought I was going to write one myself >.> And that's coming from a yaoi hater.

Sweet Jesus, sheer awesome of this episode kicked major ass. And then awesome turned epic when Viral and Simon both yelled Kamina's 'WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK WE ARE?!'

I shit myself at the pure awesomeness of the episode.

Me too. So damn much.

...and of course, being a wimp, I shed a tear or two, or fifty when Yoko and Nakim (btw, Nakim is almost an anagram of Kamina, though it's probably coincidence xD) saw the memorable view. ;___; I want to have this as wallpaper.

...Judging by the title in the preview, next episode is going to be about Lagann combining with the spaceship o.o lol if that's the case, then I'll yell THE EPIC IS OVER 9000.

[01:53] <windy[gl21|sleep]> VIRAL AND SIMON JOINT "WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM!??!" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this ep kicked major fricking ass.

the execution of it was...pefect. from the time when yoko blasted off simon's handcuffs to when boota burrowed in yoko's boobs i was just gaping at the screen in awe.

i cannot express my love for this show in words~

and yomako (?) sensei is someone to really be admired. yoko made a lot of little fans in that short time on the island :)

next ep is going to be even more epic than this, possibly.

VIRAL AND SIMON SHARING THE GURREN LAGANN?!
hell yesssssss.

Damn Yoko, always making me feel so melancholic. I teared up when she was sitting atop the tree with Nakim, reflecting on her past. Beautiful scene. She still has Kamina's words deep in her heart, about children living under the blue sky.

I don't feel the Yoko-love (tsunderes don't much do it for me as a rule, no matter how much they jiggle), so I fast-forwarded past her flashback. Everything after that was fuckin GOLDEN tho. Viral and Simon piloting Gurren Lagann together?!? And going to take down the moon! Too epic for words. I can't wait to see how this all wraps up ... from what I hear the scales just keep getting bigger and bigger ...

Watched it. I dunno, seemed like the Yoko angle was completely outdone by the 5 minutes of Simon x Viral win. I like Yoko, but her story just couldn't compete.


Pretty much this. Still missed her in action though. Boota missed her as well. Couldn't resist snuggling between those pillows, could he? xD

Simon AND Viral? Could we possibly handle all the awesomeness that would be unleashed over these last few episodes?

Team Gurren is back! Hell yeah! And Simon is so mature and reliable..Yuko ftw! And Viral? haha. I always have a feeling before that he will end up helping the team in the end.. Oh man, I bet Kamina is so proud of Team Gurren.

So I think I've finally understood why the last few episodes upset me so much and what the show is ultimately trying to tell me. I was upset because I have sat where both Rossiu and Simon are seated. With trying to do the best you can leading a group of people and once you give them your all, they turn on you. Even if its the smallest of mistakes, they resent your leadership position for the pettiest of reasons.

Secondly, the show is telling the audience that you need more that a big heart and courage to lead successfully and accomplish your dreams, but you need to be intelligent as well. However cold intellect, foregoing the human component, is a recipe for utter disaster.

I can't wait to see how the final episodes turn out, but they would really have to screw the pooch for me to feel anything but elated about this show.
Let this be our little secret, no needs to know we're feeling HIGHER AND HIGHER AND HIGHER!

Amazing episode. We're reaching the end.

So we get to see what Yoko was doing recently. My favourite part of that segment was while she was fighting the Gunmen and explaining what would be on the test. That was funny.

After that there's the long-awaited Simon and Viral team up. Their combined "Who the hell do you think I am?" was great.

5/5

The first half of the episode was cute with Yoko and the kids.

Also fuck yeah for Viral/Simon teamwork I was hoping that Viral would join up with him! It took seven years to happen though.
