...About halfway through the series. Then it just completely loses steam as it tries to continue one-upping itself to up the ante to absurd levels.
The first half of this series is as fun and silly as it is fantastic to watch. The second half is almost a parody of what animes turn into, and feels like space dandy except for the fact that space dandy knew it was a caricature.
The show absolutely delivered, but then it just kept on going. The writers really didn't know where to stop, and it's obvious - and unfortunate. So, Gurren Lagann exists simultaneously as one of my favourite animes and one of the most disappointing to me.
