I just watched this (like the loser I am :P) during New Year celebrations in my home town, so loads of loud fireworks were randomly going off during the whole episode.

Needless to say, I thought that was rather appropriate for the final battle of the Dai-Gurren brigade!


:O DO WANT

Now this feels like a Gainax show... everyone died!

Well, everyone except the people we gave a fuss about anyway...

In all seriousness, epic!
I was very sad to see the guys whose names I didn't even know die, which says something about them (especially the twins.)

And the build up for YokoxKittan has been so painfully obvious these last episodes.
Heck, the first guy Yoko runs by after she departs from the island with the school was Kittan in his banana star ganmen.

And the boobs reaction is so epically obvious.
That alone made me want them s a couple xD

Simon - "I get it! My penis isn't big enough!"

"I'm the only one with enough penis power, right?!"

"I'll be back with a bigger penis!"

Viral - "Simon... I finally see why your penis power is so high... you're the man!"

*white stuff sprays everywhere as penis power reaches 100%*

This show was made for 13 year old boys.

I find it interesting that:

First, these guys find a huge spaceship underground.
Then, the moon spaceship makes it look absolutely tiny.
THEN, THESE GIANT FACES COME OUT...

This show's storytelling and plot isn't the best, but it certainly does a good job of raising your adrenaline. Very OTT action, but the deaths of the minor characters were epic. R.I.P Dai-Gurren Brigade.

Also, I've gotta find a shirt with gurren brigade's logo. Or even better, Kamina's shades. Do want

Finallly, they start dying ^_^ one after another because of Anti-spiral's strength.

it's realistic that way, i mean after all, anti spiral ruled the universe.

Simon will once again have to pierce through heaven.

in the end the twins died laughing. They did their part as Dai-Gurren dan to protect the future mechas, (Gimmi, Darri) and staying behind and make sure the 2 really make it all the way back... and died laughing

1 sad death (Crushed)
2 idiotic death (Disobeying orders and turn back)
3 heroic death (Sacrifices)

Woah shit on a ham sandwich
Was Tomino the guest director or something?

I didn't even remember the first few character to bite the dust...but the twins. Damn, those two didn't even have names to me, and they were close to my heart.

I expect more deaths from here on out.

I always wondered why they didn't touch on death besides Kamina. I guess now we'll see what happens.

Very memorable episode for me, have they dug themselves into a hole they can't get out of, hmm...

Well, tons of deaths in this episode, but when they died it just made me think that they should have explored their characters more so that their deaths would have more of an impact.


I was actually thinking of how smart of a move that was. basically they establish that they are part of the old team(thus gaining emotional attachment by association), their deaths are given an important moment and awesome lines(thus gaining instant empathy), and the general feel of loss is there without being TOO much...saving the most emotional hits for later. Or, if there are no hits later, you get the feeling of sacrifice without having felt too sad about the loss of some members you liked.

Kinda like how they put the baby on board of the arc so people would actually care about what happens to it(had the baby and her parents not been there I would definitely not have cared about it).

The writers of this show are crazy good.

Yeah the deaths of some of the members was kind of sad but I didn't really feel too much for them until it was Gimmy and Darry's lives at stake. I was so scared that those two were going to die and it gave me huge respect for those twins that saved them.

Depressing episode. The only characters I think that are guaranteed to live at this point are Simon, Yoko and the children.

"What the f**k" was all I could mutter after watching this episode. It's a shame though that I wasn't able to watch this while airing. I could've experienced all the hype like SnK.

Even though those people who died didn't have much screen time, their deaths was utterly depressing. Feeling bad for Kittan and Reite. :| All of these reminded me of Kamina. Kamina QQ.

this episode man, im actually feeling legitimately sad
and this isnt even a tragedy anime.
all those dai gurren deaths, and the sacrifice to save darry.
and the fact that she breaks down realizing that people died to save her.
a sure sign of a masterfully executed story that can attach you to secondary characters to the point of feeling such empathy when they die
ill only post 1 screenshot for this episode.
