Gurren Lagann just doesn’t cease to impress. Ever. I was expecting just a bit of utterly cool ass kicking and winning. What we got was so much more and so much better than I expected.

We. Like. Giant Robots…

What totally slipped my mind actually was the unification thing, as it has not been overtly  referred to as of late, so it was a huge surprise to me at least when the Gurren Lagann unified with the Arc-Gurren to become the huge Arc-Gurren Lagann… which looks spectacular by the way.

With the power to break through space-time 0_0

What got me was how it was strong enough to shatter a Mugen through space-time and yet, not strong enough to repel the moon but oh well. I also found it hilarious how it was just overlooked as well afterwards.

And now they control the moon, or the Ganman that it encased at least which is huge. Brings back memories of the prologue and  also makes it very apparent how we are very near the end of this.

Now, I want to see this unifying with Gurren Lagann…

For a while I also feared Nia may never pull through from the whole villain thing but this episode has given me hope. Simon’s exclamation of ‘if it’s not zero percent, to me, it may as well be 100 percent’ does sound maybe too arrogant but man, do I want to see him make it happen.

Can’t wait for next week.
