Damn this manly series... I can't believe it's about to be over.

Never expected Boota to turn human though, that was pretty great. Viral's dream was really sad, because he can't actually reproduce... and it kind of made it sadder the way he reacted, and just accepted his fate smiling. Maybe he'll join Yoko on the island raising those kids, who knows.

Welp, here's to the final episode, no doubt a manly finale, for a manly series.

This episode was seriously amazing, not just awesome.

I'm at a loss for words. Honest to God, I'm feeling so many emotions right now I can't even write them down properly.

that was some serious epic existensial stuff going on there.
those split universes / futures / pasts were intense.
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

This episode was so powerful. I lost it when Kamina mentioned Simon's height and Yoko seeing Kamina at the spot where they kissed. He still lives on in their hearts.

I think the Anti-Spirals are ridiculous though. That amount of power is just god-like. They're intelligent, they have power, and they can control what goes in their universe it's just unbelievable. It's neither a good or bad way.

Lovely episodes and yes, you guessed it- I cried again.

This shows one reason I like kamina and thats his moments with simon. Besides that never really cared for him and thats why when he died i was like meh. This anime sure slaps logic in the face and thats fine with me lol. I felt bad for viral since he cant have his dream come true. The most he can do is adopt.

Had another lolwhat moment with Boota, but okay. I'll roll with it.

The dream scenes were cool. I think it's interesting how the memory of Kamina is what pulled everyone out of it. I'm also glad it was a dream meeting. I think a resurrection would reduce the impact and importance of their deaths.

Still, it was sweet. I'll focus on a proper rating for the series afterwards. I'm just riding the emotion train for now. 8)

Seeing Kamina again, and then: "But this time... it's goodbye for real." First time Gurren Lagann has made me tear up/cry, but it was a damn effective moment. Can't wait to see how everything wraps up next episode.

Very intense episode, lots of interesting stuff with different dimensions and all. Definitely liked it.

one of my favs and that is why i put so much pressure on the ending, honestly probably the worst ending i have ever seen... i have so many layers of hate toward the different aspects of how it ended. Rossio was left in charge when it should have been between multiple other candidates. Nia dies at the wedding altar gtfo? neither Yoko or Simon have children to pass on their legacy... i get its a bittersweet ending or whatever, but i'm not a fan of that nor would shed a tear for things i am appalled toward.

YokoxKittan???? when this happened i knew it was going to go downhill. 10/10 pre ending, 0/10 ending, i guess 8/10 overall since the weight of the ending is heavy

Seeing Kamina again. This anime is something else. Boota evolved?!

"But this time... it's goodbye for real."

"This isn't goodbye. You're always with me, right?"

God damn. Feels! Fucking awesome to see Kamina one last time.

Viral had a family. Aww, that's something he can never have. He was just having a sappy dream as he said it.


One more episode! I don't want it to end! No! This is just too awesome!

Save Nia Simon!

I actually almost cried when Kamina showed up, I was so attached to his character in the beginning of the series, so when he died, it hit me hard. Kamina says it's goodbye for good, but Simon says no, he will always be in his heart. That almost made me cry. Boota as a human? LOL! 1 episode left, I wonder how they will rap things up.

Spoiler: Kamina showed up. This is one of my favorite episodes. I haven't seen last episodes this good since I watched Mirai Nikki. I wonder if this means Boota is extremely plot relevant. I really enjoyed seeing the universes that were created as they were perceived.

I'm so happy I made it through the middle part (after Kamina died the show was really difficult to watch) to see those last episodes, but this episode just blew me away. I AM going to re watch this anime some day.

Absolutely classic episode. As awesome as seeing Kamina again is, the Viral scene takes the throne for being the most moving moment. So subtle, yet so incredibly powerful.

Agreed.. Kamina's spirit lives in them all ...
And Viral's scene, it's so sad, but it's really beautiful ...

Damnn Gurren Laggan how many times do you wanna make me cry ?

Another amazing episode, even when he's already dead for years, Kamina still saved the day. I'm glad that his ghost could witness how much Simon has grown and I mean not just physically.

Virals dream,tho :O his development is alongside Simons one of the best in this show and it's so much fun to see it. I just hope that didn't raise another flag.

I'm more than hyped for the final, my 10 is ready.

There were so much drills on drills stacked on more drills spinning around gloriously mowing down the enemy that I couldn't help but gaze in awe with my mouth agape. Super Galaxy shooting every possible hole in time and space itself was simply amazing beyond words ♥

There was probability manipulation and extradimensional loops but the one thing that surprised me the most was Boota turning into a humanoid lol. I doubt she'll let him dive into her boobs anytime soon xD

The random stuff that was happening to them was kinda out of place but it made sense that they'd end up doing what they're doing if they lived in a timeline where none of the fighting occurred. It was very touching to see Kamina and the other deceased members to reunite and interact with Simon after such a long time even if it was only for a short while. Viral's dream was downright tragic ;-;

It's now the final battle! I want to see a gaping hole inside that smooshy puddle by the end of the show~

I like how people complain about the ridiculousness of this show but the show established it's rules in the first half: "Spiral power is infinite and can do crazy stuff". If someone didn't like that, should've deleted the anime then.
