    First time I heard of Gurren Lagann I was tripping acid and my mates decided to put on the episode where they throw galaxies at each other. Good times.

    If you're one of those jackasses from d#scord do yourself a favor and watch more mecha, maybe start of reading and watching mazinger z, and other mecha series go nagai and dynamic pro made and produce, watch and read getter robo instead of being a stuck up tourist who only think gurren lagann is the only pinnacle anime while you're just dismissing previous mecha series as being "mid" and doesn't hold a candle you fricking tourist

            Tell me, are you one of the same morons from discord? If so tell them to say hi, and also if you think 70s anime is bad simply because it's not modern enough and not flashy enough GTFO of /m/ you fricking zoomer

              Not sure what discord is, but Mazingers story is incredibly stupid and nonsensical, and Getters is unfinished. There are a few decent moments in each franchise to be sure, but on a whole it's absolute dreck.

          who cares? I'm not gonna watch some 70s toy commercial so this affects my enjoyment in precisely no way.

          TTGL looks infinitely better than any of the boomer super robot shows that inspired it. Because it's newer.

                Because TTGL's message was that you might lose things and moving forward is painful, but the end result can still be positive, even if Simon lost pratically everyone he loved he still managed to save humanity and become a better version of himself, meaning there's hope in adversity. It's a bittersweet ending.

          You are actually moronic. TTGL's "whole shtick" starts in episode 1 and goes straight through to the final credits. We walk a path paved by those who came before, use that advantage to go further, and in so doing pave the path for the next generation to go even farther. From Kamina following his dad out of the village all the way up to using the energy of the spiral warriors who challenged the anti spiral before, this repeats constantly. The villains all clung to their time, their station in life, and what they knew and did not participate in this cycle. This even applies on a meta level with the show itself walking the path paved by shows like Mazinger and Getter to accomplish what it sets out to do and eventually leading to the creation of Studio Trigger. The ending shows Simon making the choice to trust tomorrow to others and not cling. TGGL is entirely consistent in it's "whole shtick" (even if other things like animation or design quality are not as consistent).

          Your take on Eva is also nothing and what's there is wrong which is fricking impressive because it spells itself out for you in the end. Who you are is not a fixed point. Angry, depressed, weak, clingy, none of that shit is terminal. You can not only do better but be better. Well, normal people can. Your moronation might be too much to overcome

          Xabungle is a parody because the comedy is often derived from how the show executes or draws attention to the conventions of the genre.

    shitposts aside, I'd really like to see a good breakdown of instances where the home video and the tv aired versions of TTGL differ
    there's some stuff that's really noticeable in the last ep, like the bird flying off of Grapeapotamus and some of the pacing of the cuts around the MY WIFE IS BEST IN THE UNIVERSE SWING, but I suspect there's more
