Gurren Lagann Episode 20 – Kittan Mania

admin — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 01:12:49 +0000

Have you watched episode twenty yet? No? Well, that sucks! Why not? It’s currently Thursday. Subs came out Sunday. What kind of Gurren Lagann fan are you? Bah! Get to watching.

Anyway, episode 20 brought about two characters who are part of the Gurren Brigade but lately have been lacking in position. That is of course Kittan and Yoko. Kittan played a somewhat important role in getting Simon back on his feet after the death of Kamina. Yoko was important during the first arc but afterwards sort of faded in the story. This current arc neither has been seen of much.

Kittan is now a major Internet sensation. He’s probably passed Bruce Ironstash in popularity with episode 20. Not only did he stand up to Rossiu and declare the Gurren Brigade as an entity again – but also took back Simon’s spiral key. Much needed for the resurrection of the Gurren-Lagann after Simon gets out of jail…

Which brings us to Yoko busting Simon out of jail (and possibly Viral). Yoko who has vanished except for a quick insert early in the arc has once again returned with her rail gun which we can assume is now supporting spiral bullets.

So it looks like Gainax is pushing the series to the current age of mecha where burning justice once again overcomes and everyone makes the impossible possible. As mentioned earlier, each arc is is representing an era of mecha anime with the current arc being in the more realistic and depressing mecha series of the 90′s (like Eva) instead of the burning justice mecha series of the 70s and 80s. With Kittan bringing back the revolution of the Gurren Brigade ala Nadesico ship-retake style, we can only imagine what’s coming next.

Oh yeah, episode 21 may be half Yoko filler. It’s really unknown if it is all Yoko filler or just half yet. Let’s just hope for half. Remember the last 5 episodes are the ones that use over 80% of the budget! Coming soon, just episode 22!

Since these :words: are probably uninteresting to a lot of you, here is a ton of screenshots of Kittan kicking ass:

Tenga Toppa Gurren-Lagann Episode 8

First off the download link. Anon’s (4chan subbing group) version can be downloaded here in torrent form. Next off, after giving it some thought, I think I’m going to stop doing reviews per se and instead focus on discussing the episode. After losing all willpower to try to write a review on something then think why in the world someone wants a review of something they’ve either already seen or are going to see anyway I had to just… think awhile. Anyway it’s going to be more along the lines of an episode discussion. Screenshots will continue but it’ll go more in detail along the plot lines and meanings behind things. This should make a little bit more sense.

Anyway screenshots:

Episode eight is probably one of the sadder moments in anime. With the [spoiler]death of Kamina[/spoiler] (the spoiler is a warning that it won’t be unspoiled again).

The episode started off normally. Sure episode eight just came after the scary episode seven where Yoko mentions how Kamina is still mortal. The episode is going fine, everything is going good. Then it happens. The saddest and most insane moment that anime has seen in the last few years.

That’s right, with the death of Kamina half way through the show everyone goes insane. Slowly people start to cling to the notion that maybe, MAYBE, Kamina lives. Maybe he’ll recover. I mean, Zoro from One Piece had himself cut from one end to the other and with bandages he came back. As the episode continues everyone gets more and more somber. More and more he starts talking about the last attack.

Then it hits, GIGA DRILL. The greatest attack we’ve seen so far. Then… then it happens. The rain falls, the tears start and Kamina dies.

A tragic episode that I will probably remember for a long time. This is almost like Gai dieing again except Kamina was probably going to live a little bit longer.

More on this later in an attempt to catch up, but rather tragic.
