Do NOT kiss this slut.You have been warned.
shes only the 3rd best girl in the show
>>283120788>Gurren Lagann is almost 20 years oldI'm tired, bros
>>283121124Nia is best girl obviously. So who is #2 according to you?
>>283121680Kiyal
So if a kiss kills you, what does sex do?
>>283121519>20 years old>I'm still mad about the ending
Paizuri doesn't count as kissing right
>>283122166Miss Yamako is a respectable teacher, she would never
>>283122141The ending was so dumbYeah the whole tech and power system runs on themes and bullshit but they didn't have to go so hard on itWhy did they lean so aggressively on characters being different than you'd expect after the time skip? That didn't need to happen Why did Nia die? Thematically I don't get it, the narrative structure doesn't benefit from it either unless the entire goal was to just not have a happy ending, and even with the constant "themes and bullshit" trend it still felt like there was no fair explanation for what caused it to happen.And there was simply no counter to the anti spiral ideology. Just "oh shit you're right. Eh, we'll figure it out"
>>283122242Famous last words from a shota about to get his little dick titted to death
>>283122315>Simon has one (1) post time-skip moment he is allowed to fully take up the mantle from Kamina and shine>wife dies and he becomes a wandering hoboUtter shit.
>>283120788I will never understand why Yoko became less of an active player in the plot as the show went on. They even spent an entire episode making up some bullshit about why she can't be the Gurren's pilot. What the hell.
>>283122526Creator favoritism, probably.
>>283122526Because she's a kiss slut
>>283122775And man, I would kiss her for days...
>>283122671>creator favoritismIn favor of Rossiu? If that's the case, then I officially declare Gurren Lagann to be actually shit.
>>283122882Rossiu was such an irredeemable pile of shit. Is there any more jarring example in anime of a character the author is clearly telling us we're supposed to forgive and like despite them being total garbage? Fuck this faggot
>>283122882Well, him or Nia.
>>283122959My favorite part was they were specifically told that once a million people were on the surface then the moon would kill everyoneSo my man Fivehead decides to locate and forcefully surface every single colony of humans he can find so he can...count them
>>283123003>pulls this shit>immediately starts gaslighting Simon and telling him he's become just like LordgenomeWhat the fuck was his problem?
>>283122410Yep
>>283122959>Is there any more jarring example in anime of a character the author is clearly telling us we're supposed to forgive and like despite them being total garbage?Wufei. I still don't understand why that twat exists. >>283123003>>283123039On paper, Rossiu is supposed to be the guy who takes logic and rational calculation too far and forgets that compassion still matters. Because if we stop caring about people, and just see them as numbers, how are we better than the Anti-Spirals? The problem is that none of his actions are actually logical. He's just being a cunt.
>>283123232Yeah it's clear what they wanted to do with him, they just wrote him like a retardKinon willingly strapping a bomb to herself to keep Simon on a leash he didn't need was also a masterclass in writing. I know it had been seven years but they were basically treating him like a stranger
>cool and sexy sniper onee-sama>gets sidelined for some asshole who Vulcans wrongNot gonna lie, I do like Gurren Lagann a fair bit less in hindsight.
Do people even still like Gurren Lagann or do they just like Yoko
>>283123296It hadn't even been seven years in universe since the characters had seen each other. They had been working together the entire time. Rossiu is just a powertripping faggot>>283123336It's a very good show, 9/10. The ending is just bleak for no reason, contrary to the rest of the show. There were other solemn moments don't get me wrong but the author was depressed or something when he wrote that ending.
>>283123386>It hadn't even been seven years in universe since the characters had seen each other.Yeah but I was talking about how it had been 7 years since we'd seen them interact so the relationships could change since the original first half of the series probably didn't even take a year
>>283123448Pretty sure Rossiu just didn't want Simon running away or going out in a blaze of glory because he wanted him to play scapegoat to win him some public support and morale
>>283123336Yes
>>283123296>Kinon willingly strapping a bomb to herself to keep Simon on a leashI forgot about the shit. What the actual fuck were they thinking? That is not how you make heroic characters into anti-heroes.
>if they ever tried to do a sequel both Simon and Yoko couldn't be used in a meaningful way because they're old as shit losers>Gimmy and Darry can't be the protagonists because they did all their growth off screen Second time skip was a mistake. Show should have ended on this frame
>>283120788>YokoSimon's soulmate.
>>283124720Alternatively they could do something set before the second time skip so they could undo a lot of the retardation introduced right in the end. Preferably a story where Simon gets to play the role of Kamina and pass the torch to a new upstart, maybe he finds a way to bring Nia back along the road. Would certainly re-contextualize the post time-skip ending.
>>283124720The only sentitive option is rebooting but this time with confirmation of Yoko x Simon.Nia/Kittan/Kamina all still die as cucks.
>>283125463Garbage. Never reply to me again
>>283125551spotted the rare niacuck
>>283125551Yoko is a million times better than Nia ever was.
>>283126287Nia is pure and perfect. Yoko is a slut
Nia is for Simon. Yoko is for us.
>>283120788But I want to die.
>>283126541It is a pretty awesome way to go.
>>283126661Shit, when you put it that way, yeah it is.
Fuck off fags, this shit banged when I was 15 and I will not have my good memories sullied.
>>283126443nia is a fake and died a cuckqueen
>>283127486I was 17. The Lagann-hen cut of Sorairo Days is still fantastic. Don't let nitpicking take that from you
>>283122410The fuck are you talking about, he took up the mantle and surpassed him the moment he got his shit together in episode 11, their short reunion in 26 just makes it all the more obvious>>283122526I've said it before but I am like 999% convinced Yoko was a design floating around the office that they slapped in hoping she'd take off as their next Rei/Asuka. It pretty much worked but it's painfully clear they only ever got as far as "personable big tiddy girl with a gun", like she is a literal artifact of the earliest episodes when they didn't actually have the plot planned out yet
>>283125463Why would you ever want that
>>283128900Anon his first battle post time skip he accidentally got the city carpet bombed then gets locked up. The very next battle he fails to take out the main ship so Gimmy and Darry have to clean up for him (he's then immediately thrown back into prison). It's not until the final battle that he actually embodies Kamina and pulls through.
>>283128967I personally think the two not ending up together as a mutual survivor thing is lame, Kamina and Nia would would want them both to be happy
>>283129369having an arc where he has issues adjusting to changing times/tactics has nothing to do with the fact that he became their defacto leader and succeeded beyond Kamina's wildest dreams, and then did so again and again
>>283129416He absolutely succeeds Kamina in skill you're correct but it's not until the final fight that he fights with full confidence. We get that single fight then he fucks off to be a traveling homeless man
At least Banpresto gave Nia a good ending.https://youtu.be/lhQ30iVqS2A?t=2150
Simon should have impregnated Yoko
>>283122526Because she rejected the main character and had to be punished for it.
>>283127493>cuckquean>married the man she loved>husband takes it upon himself to fulfill her dream for the rest of his life and never remarries>canonically had sexDo words even mean anything anymore
>>283120788What if cum inside her instead?
