You get to have a
look at it from a new perspective, I’m talking about the future; in a whole new
different world. “Gurren Lagann” Is one of the finest anime I have ever set
eyes upon. It will give you the dose of awesomeness you’ve been looking for.
The things I tell you here are from personal experience. First of all the anime
is gorgeous and has a fine touch of giant robots in it, its fancy while at the
same time the last battles had a very poor space-time concept, but you’ll still
love the battles and the story. It’s a Mecha anime that takes place in a future
earth where humans have gone almost extinct and are forced to live like moles
under the ground. The main characters
are Simon, Kamina and Yoko.
Simon was a digger who expands the village under the ground; a child born
beneath the crust. He finds a weird drill, a type he had never seen before,
this drill actually turns out to be a key core to a “Gunmen” (A type of giant
robot) And this Gunmen obeys everything that the key holder commands. After
this all the action starts, the way it has been designed is remarkable. The
young boy Simon defeats a Gunmen that attacks the village right after he finds
the drill while “Yoko” A young girl helps a bit in the process. Later on Simon
develops a strong crush on Yoko (who is a lot older and breaks his heart while
she gets involved with Kamina). Kamina has a big role in the anime, at first I thought
that he was Simon’s real elder brother but he was a brotherly figure and an
ideal to Simon, the one who encouraged him to go to the surface and fight.
Unfortunately one of your favorite characters in the anime eventually dies in battle,
leaving Simon paralyzed, discouraged and sure to lose his mind. That’s where a
new gorgeous character comes in, “Nia” The beautiful daughter of “Lord Genome”
A tyrant ruler of earth who believes that Spiral life forms should not be given
power.
I am not going to tell you how she came close to Simon or how she got
there in the first place but I will do you a favor, it’s very interesting how
she got there Lord genome is also the one
responsible for keeping humans locked up under the ground. This daughter of
lord genome, Nia, pulls Simon together after kamina’s death while his team
prompts him to lead the battle against “Lord Genome” The battle was amazing and
I really thought that the anime would end after this but it went on at full
speed and power. I remember it now, it’s all coming back to me, Kamina is my
favorite character in the anime and you will have the same opinion on this, in
Simon’s greatest battles he remembered that what would Kamina do? I only post
here about the best anime and believe me it’s worth your time, worth every
second .
