@@mascotwithadinosaur9353 A good anime/manga series that has that good use of words and mysteries is Made in Abyss, it's my 2nd favorite anime then it's One Piece
I was kind of angry on Trigger and Gainax to write him out of the story this fast because he was my favorite and i prefered him over Simon, but the guy that Simon becomes were unexpectedly a good character..
Went from 133kg to 100kg in 2015 thank you Kamina. 26/12/2022 Update: I was able to lose 50kg ish total. Unfortunately I was unable to keep it off. Now I know what to do to lose the weight in the future when the opportunity arises.
Always extremely proud of the people who come here time and time again and share their stories of what this song helped get them through. To the new Gurren Lagann fans, to the old, and to the people who got this in their reccomended. This is a place of hope, always believing in yourself and going even beyond that. Remember to kick logic to the curb and do the impossible!
It sure is incredible. We feel that much closer with people we've never met, and we understand that ultimately, we're all in this together, and we should push forward together. I just passed all of my exams last semester for my zoology degree, which was really amazing since I had been consistently struggling beforehand with the last two years of work, always facing setbacks. To pass all the ones I just did was immensely fulfilling, and reminded me that I can get through it eventually, even though things have been really hard. Keep well out there, everyone. :)
Cool little tidbit i noticed, The voice actor for the Narrator(in the dub, anyway) is the same voice actor that plays old Simon at the very end. So i think that this whole show is him quietly going around the world and telling this story to whoever will listen.
I went through a very tough year. Almost went broke and penniless after 6 months of no work during the lockdown. That's when I watched Gurren Lagan and played this song almost everyday. Thank you Kamina. Your spirit kept me strong. Truly. Today I am doing great, my life is back on track - I believed in myself because you believed in me. Because you believed in us all. THANK YOU. Why am I crying....
OF COURSE!, JUST WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK WE ARE!? WE ARE THE MEN WHO LIVE ON THIS WONDERFUL WORLD, IN OTHER WORDS WE'VE PIERCED THE HEAVENS! WE'VE TURNED ALL THE SADNESS AND EVIL DOWN TO HELL WHERE IT BELONGS!, WHENEVER YOUR FEELING DOWN THINK OF YOUR BRO KAMINA!!!
I watched this series at a real low time of my life. It was new years eve and I was alone. An acquaintance suggested it to me at the perfect time I guess.
I stopped coke, alcohol, started muai thaï and picked up weight training again, going from 150 lb fully clothed to 170lb of muscle in 2 month. I’m unbroken, my spirit fights on!
"A real man never dies, even when he's killed! No! He's remembered. By those around him. By those he's affected. By those close to him. Through them, he lives on! PIERCE THROUGH THE HEAVENS!! GURREN....LAGANN!!!!" Start reading this quote at around 2:10 =D
about 2 years ago i commented about being nervous going to an interview for a job and now? I've been there for 2 years. Still wearing my core drill necklace underneath my shirt every day.
Simon. Remember. Believe in yourself. Not the Simon I have faith in. Not the Kamina you have faith in, either. Believe in the Simon, who believes in you. Later, buddy.
Yesterday, my mom died. But a real woman never dies, even after she died. I love you mom. I'll be a real and good man, and I'll never die, even after I die, or I'm killed!.
I used to stay at home 24/7 playing videogames and watching animes all time Then i watched gurren lagann and I got inspired to hit up the gym, then after some months I started climbing and i will compete in competitions soon, then last summer i also learnt to boxe and now i'm here, very good climber and lots of muscles, thank you kamina!
Brooo if you got into climbing you should read a manga called “ the climber”. It’s honestly in my top favourite things I ever read and i don’t even climb I’m an mma fighter. You will love it so please check it out bro
Gurren Lagann was one of those anime that were unique in just about every way possible. Art style was amazing, voice acting top notch and the fast paced story made sure there was never a dull moment and the soundtrack was amazing as well. I hope that this master piece is never forgotten
It’s become a classic in the anime community. It definitely won’t be forgotten, it’s up there with the likes of Neon Genesis Evangalion and Cowboy Be-Bop. It has become an anime where even non-anime fans enjoy it, just like Dragon Ball Z and Tri-Gun, two other anime that is liked by non-anime fans.
The cruel indifference of the universe: "Everyone dies, nothing you do matters, you are inconsequential in the grand scheme of the cosmos 🤓" The indomitable human spirit:
Probably my favourite thing about this video is how a lot of you all keep coming back and commenting your own journeys and progress through the years. I'm working to become a mangaka one day, and this ost inspires me to keep going. My art is mediocre now, but someday I'll live up to the standards I've set for myself. I'll keep on believing in the Kamina that will always keep believing in me...
From the filthy ass dirt, piercing through the ceiling and soraring far past the surface, above the world and the whole universe Gurrel Lagaan is about humanity's ascension to the heavens
Let this song go in your head when you are feeling down, when you feel like all hope is lost. When you feel like you can't keep going. Remember, there are people who believe in you. Believe in them
However, don't let believing in them hold you back! Even without them, you can keep growing a little stronger, moment by moment, until you can believe in the you that believes in you! Then take a step further, to become the you that you believe in! And one final push... ...To *PIERCE THE HEAVENS!*
Simon inspired Kamina by his actions and in return Kamina inspired Simon by his words that ripples through him for all of eternity And I find this writing to be absolutely beautiful
This was the first anime that got me to anime. It holds a special place in my heart. My father isn't the best and I have self confidence issues due to it. Seeing Kamina support Simon made me latch on as a positive male role model. Whenever I feel down or maybe suicidal I rewatch this to get that passion back.
Stay strong bud , We've never know each other probably never will but keeping fighting we all have to fight in order to find a better tomorrow and when you do reach it the sight you're gonna see is gonna be beautiful just like what kamina and simon saw when they first came to the surface
Great start, into a hopefully great Journey. Keep your Eyes on your Path, never look down and even if you do, remember, Simon did too and after that, he threw Galaxies to some Mecha and saved almost everyone. And if you don't care, because it is fictional, let me, a real person, tell you something: No one starts with a good life. Everyone fights with their problems, Your father, me, you and everyone on this planet. But let me tell you something! The best moments in our life is when you break the wall you thought it was unbreakable! Because behind it were a paradise all the time. There will be people or things who will come across your live and want to build that Wall again and again, but if you stand up and break the shitty crap Wall the 1000th time you know it was worth it everytime you see this damn paradise and even if it is just for one day or a moment. Some people give up and find never the Paradise and some people will fall and fall, but stand up to see that paradise. My advise to you. Never give up. And even if you do, stand up. As often as you need
i grew up without a father and i have a little brother, watching gurren lagann made me want to inspire my brother, and ever since i've always tried to push him to be better and in turn he does the same for me, feels good to know im not the only one who learned something valuable from this anime, hearing this music makes me happy i had the luck of watching it, hope you keep doing well, cheers!
I watched Gurren Lagann for the first time when I was 14, just started my rewarch a few days ago. I'm 21 now, and the reason why I waited, was because when I first watched Gurren Lagann, I was the same age Simon was at the start, now I'm his age after the time skip. Simon is my favourite protagonist in anime and my inspiration, even after losing someone that meant everything to him, he still continued and eventually created the world Kamina envisioned. Gurren Lagann is to me, the greatest anime ever conceived. I used to be where Simon once was, lacking in faith and thinking those I loved would be better without me, but I believe in myself now. What gives me strength and what makes me who I am, is that I believe in myself. Gurren Lagann will be my pride and joy till I die, I'll dig deep if I lose faith, and if I do, I'm lucky enough to have friends and family who believe in me. Thank you Gurren Lagann and thank you Simon. And to anyone who feels doubtful, go beyond and pierce the heavens, and if no one else will, then I'll believe in you
Hey bro, welcome to team Dai Gurren!! I’m like you man. Actually I’m almost exactly like you. I go back to this anime at least once a year for the last 15 years now. It’s my favorite anime ever. Nothing touches what this anime means to me. I’ll represent team Dai Gurren until the day I have to dig my own grave and pierce through the heavens myself. I’m turning 35 this year and I couldn’t be a much more prouder fan of Gurren Lagann and to see how it still is able to affect peoples lives even to this day. Once again, welcome bro. And always believe in the you that believes in yourself!!
Kamina : Whether it's impossible or laughable, great men open up paths of battle! Simon : If there's a wall in our way, WE'LL DESTROY IT!! If there's no road, we'll pave it WITH OUR OWN HANDS! Kamina & Simon : The magma in our hearts is blazing like flames! Kamina & Simon : Everlasting combination. GURREN LAGANN! Simon : Just who... Kamina : ... the hell... Kamina & Simon : ...DO YOU THINK WE ARE!?
"It's just about drills and stuff" No, it's about many things combined making one of the best animes i've ever watched playing a big role in my childhood, the anime was great af
But it really is all about drills. Spirals. The spiral of the galaxy and the universe, endlessly expanding outwards against the void. The spiral of DNA, the infinite potential of life and growth The spiral of the human spirit, its dualistic potential to drill into oneself or to fight for the future of your whole race. It is about drills. Drills are everything we and the world we live in ARE.
Today I lost my job opportunity, the interviewer told me I wasn't good enough for the job, but... who the hell does he think I am!? Start listen to the gurren laggan ost to hype myself and train again, I have 23 years old and just finish college, I know tomorrow is gonna be a better day and make mah boi kamina proud one day so I will continue using my own drill to pierce throught the sky one day!
Even though this is a Gainax anime, I have always considered this a TRIGGER anime cause some of the big names and staff that made Gurren Lagann made their own studio called Trigger, it also fits more with Trigger since they made Kill La Kill which feels like a spiritual successor of Gurren Lagann
"Listen, Simon. Never forget. Just believe in yourself. Not in the Simon that I believe in; not in the Kamina that you believe in. Have faith in the Simon who believes in you" On that day, we all lost something we couldn't replace
...No. A real man never dies, even when he's killed! We've lost nothing -- only dug another step further through the wall between us and the heavens! If we dig to the heavens, we'll see Kamina again! Once we break through...IT MEANS THAT WE'VE WON!!!
The first time I stumbled upon Gurren Lagann I was in the trenches of studying for the MCAT. This anime has sometimes been the only thing giving me the motivation to push through. Today I just got accepted to medical school.
I JUST FINISHED WATCHING LIKE 2 MINUTES AGO ITS 2 AM AND I DONT CARE THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING ANIME I HAVE SEEN AND I THOUGHT NOTHING COULD TOP EVANGELION I LOOOVEEEE GAINAX FOR MAKING THIS AMAZING STORY AND I JUST DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY LIFE NOW I FEEL LIKE A WANT TO HOLD A INSPIRING SPEECH SOMEWHERE PEOPLE WONT RECOGNIZE THIS SONG AND PLAY IT AND FINISH IT WITH THE WORDS OF KAMINA AND SIMON AND EVERYONE OMG I CANT HANDLE THE EPICNESS AND FEELS
That moment you realize Kamina never told anyone goodbye for the same reason Kittan didn't say "I'm off, you bastards!" to look cool, because they knew that even if they died they would keep on living with their friends as one, in their memories, in their hearts and on their backs, to push them to their victory. They needn't say "Good-bye" because they knew they would never be gone.
Man, coming back to this song after so long fills me with the energy i truly needed. And when i scroll down the comments, i see all my fellow brothers and sisters experiencing the same thing i am. I'm so glad that this anime was created and it helped to start a flame in our hearts, that will burn even brighter each and every day. Do the impossible, Because life is a battle that we intend to win!
Gurren Lagann will always hold a special place in my heart and soul, even though it was shorter than most acclaimed anime series, it impacted my life greatly, i am so thankful that i experienced this through my childhood, and now i have grown to take hold of tomorrow with both hand and never give up! I will strive for the tomorrow i hope to bring to the world, a better place, just like Kamina believed in! I will head towards tomorrow, and I will believe in myself... In the me who believes in myself! Because so long as you believe, you can truly attain what you thought was impossible. I went from being a sniveling nobody in highschool, not nearly a friend to talk to, always being bullied, and now, many years later, i have evolved from the person i was before, i have attained great heights and have achieved a happiness and friendships that will span across the eons! Just like Kamina said. KICK LOGIC TO THE CURB! All you gotta do is believe, because your willpower and determination will shine through and evolve along side you. With each turn of life you will grow as well. JUST LIKE A DRILL!!!!
That is the beauty of Gurren Lagann, the story of facing fate, destiny and logic in the face and saying No. Saying we choose. Saying that We can do anything.
Fuck ya man. Wherever, whoever you are. I hope you're striving for that illusive tomorrow. And if you fall if you question yourself here's hoping you'll show those grit teeth
Many years have passed since the first time I witnessed this story. Now there is an actual 1:1 replica of the legendary Dai Gurren Dan flag hanging at my living room.And tonight, I can really tell how much time passed. Also, I am really far from where I started ... and I know I will go on and surpass everything as I know for sure it seems hard when I started before ... however, it was only a fullfilling and growing experience, as every breath of our lives pushes us into the future where greatness awaits for us. Thanks and love to all the lights in the sky ... those are us. We are those stars.
GURREN LAGANN IS A FLAG FOR HOPE. IT IS A BEACON OF LIGHT, WHICH CAN NEVER BE BLOWN OUT! IT WILL SHOW NO MERCY TO THE DARKNESS. JUST WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK THEY ARE? *fanboyalert
When I first watched this back in 2009 I was 19 and I thought that I was already mature enough to not jump around in excitement when something awesome happens in every action show I watch. I was wrong. With both arms stretched outwards and flailing about, I was screaming "Yeah!" at the top of my voice with my 2-year-older brother like we were 3-year olds enjoying the hell out of MMPR or Ultraman doing their finishing poses as their enemies dramatically fall before exploding into a giant, yet beautiful fireball. TTGL sure made me feel like a kid again.
I just finished watching this on Netflix and I just want to say this is the greatest show I've ever watched. I love the plot and the characters and I actually felt something when bro would give a speech and I was devastated when bro and everyone else died. This show actually made me feel something from a show. Which rarely happens
My grandmother passed recently, and today was her funeral celebration. I realized how many lives one woman affected in such a positive way, and I want to do the same with my life. She always saw the best in people and held this factual belief that the ones she loved would succeed. I still feel her love pushing me forward, like the turning of a drill I will press on!!!
This show helped me through a lot in life since I first saw it back in 2013. It still does to an extent and I'm glad this series has such positive vibes, it appeared in a time that I desperately needed and I'm thankful for that. Let's hope there are other great series in the future inspired by it, spiraling out on to their own uniqueness.
It’s not like this anime is old. 2007 is still recent (at least for me since I’ve been watching anime for over 20 years). Also there’s no need to compare. Different genres and different strokes for different folks. Enjoy what you will. Fight on.
I am hardcore DB/DBZ fan, but this anime is just so special. In 27 episodes they've done everything. Non stop action. While watching almost any other anime sometimes trough the series I get sleepy, but in this one.. Not even for a second. I mean, Goku needs that many episodes just to get his spirit bomb, ffs. Voice cast, music, plot, conversations.. Just everything is perfect. My eyes got teary every time I'm watching or listening to something from TTGL. If it only had more episodes. I got to excited and watched whole anime in just couple of days. I'm yet to see movies but I don't want to rush it this time.
I had a real rough final semester of college that completely broke my passion. I want to be a teacher who my students will deserve so I needed to regain my passion. I started listening to this song every single day. While doing so I would run around my dorm and dance. Thank you Gurren Lagann.
Only just finished this Anime, which is ironic because I have never really heard of it before and my God, wasn't I blown away! Might be 7/8 years late, but it was precisely the right moment for me. No words describes what this Anime does to the recipient. He or She is internally transformed and never are the same again! Glad to be alive and had the opportunity to view such a masterpiece! Thank you for all who was involved in this, thank you Simon and thank you Kamina :)
Hey! Thanks for the Anime recommendations! I did watch Kill la Kill before GL. I didn't know what to expect from KLK, but I personally enjoyed it and also love the soundtrack too! ^-^. Interesting on their journey work. I'll take a look what 'trigger team' has produced. I'll check out that FLCL, haven't heard of it before. Cheers matey :D
Shiyoken Agreed. I haven't watched a lot of anime, but it's definitely the best I've ever watched. One of the best shows in general. A true, inspiring masterpiece.
But you miss the point, Yes Simon was more powerfull than Kamina, Yes he Surpassed Kamina. But would Simon of ever got there without Kamina? No. They are both amazing in their own right but just sitting there and dismissing Kamina just because 'Simon surpassed him' is honestly and insult to Simon's character.
This strange child who drills forever upward -- Simon the Digger... He's not Kamina, and he never will be. But even so, no matter what, nothing will stop him! Nothing will stand in his way! His drill is the drill that will pierce the heavens! WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK HE IS?!
Skye Lee What the hell are you doing? Get your ass down here and start bowin' already. Bow and beg and grovel and plead and just pretend to apologize to them. If they let us go, we can always come up with something else.
Nia: Even when trapped by karma's cycle... Yoko: The dreams we left behind will open the door! Leeron: Even if the universe stands in our way... Viral: Our seething blood will determine what will be! Simon: We'll break through time and space... Team Dai-Gurren: And defy all who would stop us, to grab hold of our path! Simon: TENGEN TOPPA GURREN LAGANN!! Team Dai-Gurren: JUST WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK WE ARE!?!
Christial Jack *then jumps up from the bed with a manly body a manly bear and a cape with the symbol of the Brigade while they shout* WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM!!
If anyone ever ask me to describe Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann i will say it is an anime that will make you say "I can do it" after you finish it. I never found any anime that give me this much of motivation than this anime
My bro is dead, he's gone, but he's right here on my back and here in my heart. He lives on as a part of me! If you're gonna dig, dig to the heavens. No matter what's in my way I won't stop. Once I've dug through, it means that I've won! Just who the hell do you think I am? I'm Símon. I'm not my bro. I'm me! Símon the Digger!!!! Finishing move: Giga! Drill! Break!!!!
I personally thing when talking about Insirational "libera me from hell" was like more Inspirational and hyping, but both indeed are 10/10 for sure. (but this Soundtrack is very Inspirational, no question left)
When I listen to this ost I don't know how to explain how I feel but I feel so different and I feel like I can take on anything and everything no matter if it's impossible
Since June 10th, I've lost 21 pounds and begun picking up the pieces of my life again. Im going to advance forward with each turn of the drill from now on. Thank you for believing in me. I'm ready to believe in myself.
My friend started watching Gurren Lagann. He’s only at the start, but he said that Simon reminds him of me, making reference to his weaker side during the first few episodes. Sure, I was a little disappointed that my own best friend said that, but at the same time, I feel good, because he doesn’t know the kind of man Simon will become in the future...
@@kingergang5629 Well he agreed that Simon became really awesome but that was about it. He likes Kamina more though, who is now one of his favourite anime characters.
I listened to this on the day that I took the CE board exam. I had already failed it once, and I was still nervous and anxious about re-taking. "Will it be enough this time?" "What if I fail again?" - those thoughts filled my head. But as I was about to leave to go take the exam, I decided to listen to this song, and I just cried. Not a sad cry, but a hopeful cry. I went in there scared, but hopeful. This song gave me hope and confidence that I could pass the exam.. and I did. I passed and became a licensed CE. When the results were announced, I listened to this with happy tears. And so I find myself back here again from time to time, to pay my respect. To whoever is reading this, believe in yourself. If not then believe in me. Believe in the me, who believes in you!
Currently experiencing cancer-like symptoms and as a human being, I can't help but feel fear. Will have my doctor's opinion once i show the results of my tests. Despite fear being present in every person, there's always a shining beacon of light that I look forward to. Life is truly worth fighting for. There will always be HOPE. To whoever's reading this, despite your struggles, we are here to help you in any way we can. Your spiral friends are here for you.
You wanna know the most badass thing imaginable? Cancer can't survive in fever like state. If you get a chance to, go on a hike throught a mountain or jungle, get a fever that makes you delirious. Cancer cells have to hide in your body and thus they can't produce the required proteins to survive in a hyperthermic environment, to do so they essentially have to alert your immune system. Also people with muscle mass have an easier time getting rid of cancer, so do combination treatments, workout and get a 40+ fever
This song isnt just about finding hope...its about finding your fuel 🔥🔥🔥, your courage, determination, your strength...and belief not in what people see in you..but in what you, see within yourself....
I suffer quite hard from depressive episodes and have considered (but never attempted) suicide many times. But every time I do, I watch Gurren Lagann. The pure energy this anime gives. The raw emotion to strive towards tomorrow, no matter how uncertain, to keep fighting. I can never get enough of it. It saves me when I need it the most. Thank you, Gurren Lagann. Nothing will top you in my books.
The greatness of this song will never end! right click on the video and then click the option "Loop", and the epicness will last forever. But when things finally do come to an end, remember, "Thrust through the heavens with your Spirit!"
This ost is so motivational. I’m literally listening to it while working out and while studying lmao. I finished the anime yesterday and I downloaded some of the osts and definitely gonna be listening to them for a while now 🔥
Simon was the main character, but in my personal opinion Kamina was the MVP of this series, heck in Lagann hen he is Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann! Kamina is just awesome!
If not for Kamina, team Gurren would've never even been started. Simon would've never been inspired to pierce the heavens of Gihah(?) Village and beyond.
+Cho Tengen Toppa Nep Nep While I agree with all of you,Simon was also the driving force behind kamina's actions as well. It's really not about who influenced who,they influenced each other. Kamina is most definitely the icon and spirit of Dai Gurren,but Simon,unbeknownst to him,gave reason to Kamina's actions. Soul brothers,as Kamina would call it. :')
"He's always the one who saves my ass. He's always the one who never gives up. My confidence was shot. I thought we were heading in the wrong direction. I freaked out. "Why did my dad make it and I can't?" Honestly I was just acting tough. Everyone was whining, and they stopped digging. I was at the end of my rope. But Simon kept on drilling away. His drilling let my put on a brave face. By dumb luck, he broke through the last boulder right then. [...] Whenever I feel timid and weak, whenever I feel like I'm losing confidence, I think back to the sight of his back all hunched over, digging away. I think to myself "I'll be a man that won't be laughed at by that back."" He's a deeper character than he seems to be, too.
This show did a lot to keep me alive at one point, and helped me find the family I have today. To everyone here talking about what they've gone through and how they've perservered: good work, we got this, keep going. Who the hell does this world think we are?
It fits Kamina's last fight scene so well, doesn't it? "If there's a wall in our way, we'll smash it down! If there isn't a path, we'll carve one ourselves!"
Still listening 13 years later, this anime is timeless and is etched into my very soul, I have never bared witness to a more positive message than the ones gurren lagann drills into you, pun intended Believe in the you that believes in yourself
Amo con toda mi Alma a TTGL , no importa cuanto tiempo pase cada vez me gusta más Por aquí yo leo mucho... "porque Kamina tuvo que morír?" y miren probablemente muchos dicen eso a modo de meme pero la verdad creo que no todos comprenden todo lo increíble que hay detrás de esa decisión en la Narrativa Aunque nos duela...ese tal vez sea es mayor Acierto de la Obra Kamina es un personaje espectacular!! En su mundo toda la humanidad estaba esclavisada y nadie hacia nada al respecto todos lo aceptaron y listo...pero luego llego el , Un Hombre como cualquier otro en su mundo que ni siquiera era tan fuerte pero anhelaba que el y todos tuvieran libertad y tenía ese algo que tienen todos los que querían una cambio , aunque Kamina no lo mostraba el ante el peligro cuando estaba con sus compañeros el siempre tuvo miedo , tanto o hasta algunas veces mas que los demás pero hay está la cosa el sabía que los demás ante esas situaciones necesitaban alguien , alguien que les diera la fuerza y la esperanza de luchar para conseguir lo que a ellos fue negado hace miles de años , y el decidió convertirse en ese alguien , decidió que nunca hiba a retroceder ya que si el lo hacía...todos a los que el quería también lo arian...y eso incluye a Simon Kamina estaba consiente de todo el poder que simon tenía pero no podía usarlo ya que el no tenía la voluntad necesaria para hacerlo y por eso el le dio el ejemplo... mientras Kamina estuvo luchando junto a Simon le mostró todo lo que el podía hacer al el hacerlo , Kamina le dio su Voluntad a Simón con forme ellos mas tiempo estuvieron juntos , Cuando Simon perdió a Kamina le tomo tiempo parce cuenta y por eso es que Nia se volvió tan importante para Simon ya que le mostró que aunque Kamina no estuviera el nunca se debe dar por vencido ya que...Kamina Confió en Simon y después el descubre su propia fuerza y hace mas poderoso que lo que incluso fue Kamina a su lado ya que aunque ellos estuvieran el gurren lagann Kamina como piloto principal dolo podía rozar todo el potencial de Simon La serie nos muestra que lo mejor era que Kamina tenía que morir , no sólo para que Simon despertará su Energia Espiral por si propia cuenta , sino que si el no moría poco a poco el Iría perdiendo relevancia con forme avanzaba la serie porque poco a poco se Iba enfocando más en Simon que en el y al final sólo quedaría con un personaje común en vez de el Símbolo que terminó siendo para industria del Anime junto a Simón El creador de Gurren lagann hizo todo el Tema de Kamina Y Simon a la perfección y hace que queramos que eso no terminará nunca pero simplemente eso era imposible por que el sabía que pasaría si Kamina no moría , su historia se estancaria y a nosotros como espectadores nos cuesta aceptarlo...pero es lo mejor ya que haci... Tengenn Toppa Gurren Lagann quedó Siendo la Obra de Arte que es Espero que allan podido entenderme ya que creo que también me fui un poco por las ramas y es un poco complicado ya que para entender se deben tener en cuenta muchos factores de la obra
Asi como lo dices, Simon tuvo un desarrollo espectacular tras desprenderse de las cadenas de la deseperacion tras la muerte de su "hermano", ademas de que fue mas efectivo su arco antes mencionado para lograr grandes cosas, ay si tan solo aquel tipo al que llaman Naruto Verde hubiera perdido a su mentor de una forma similar en lugar de que el autor no deje a nadie tieso para dar el obligatorio final feliz donde nadie muere luego de una gran guerra...
The moment this plays in episode 8 at Kamina's last stand i immediately started tearing up and i realised what kind of show this is. I DROPPED Gurren Lagann in my first watch i think on episode 3, i deemed it was silly and some parody of Mecha anime not worth of watching, boy was i wrong. I picked it back up in one of the toughest times of my life few month's later, I have NEVER WATCHED more inspiring show in my life. Messages this show expresse's are what makes it such a good show, its an ode to life. I think more media should be used like this to motivate people to change for the better, this anime has a SOUL, whick 90% of anime dont have, today nearly none. If you are depressed, or you lost someone important you should give it a go, these are one of the main theme's of this show. Till this day few year's later still my favourite anime and for me best anime ever made. Truly one of a kind
Funny enough gurren lagann has impacted my life once again, ive started college and i cant believe i pushed myself this far, and who knew the actions i took made me look back at gurren lagann once again. I mean there is this girl who believes in me because i believe in her. Now i need to believe in myself :3
Gurren lagann i feel is closer to something like star wars or harry potter. It's a classic hero's tale nothing more nothing less and that's what makes it so good.
To me, it's not so much about "hoping" for a better future, but rather struggling to create it in spite of adversity. Hope won't fight for you. Hope won't keep you alive. You will. And so long as you act, you will fail and succeed. Failure and success aren't permanent. If you fail, the world will continue changing and giving you more opportunities. If you succeed, the world will not stop retaliating with obstacles. It's not about how much you can "win" or how little you can "lose" in life. It's about how long you can keep going. It's about how much trust you place on yourself.
This song is the culmination of epicness, determination, and trust. The power of believing not only in the you who believes in yourself, but as well as in others. This allways makes you feel like you can thrust through the heavens with your spirit.
I love this anime so much. I love it so much for so many reasons but above that message of belief and hope. Breaking past your limits, staying true to who you are despite all that is around and succeeding is a possibility. Our world is damaged, full of hurt, sorrow, evil. But hope and faith still remain. Love still remains. Gurren Lagann is lesson on that, and that’s what makes living through it all worth it
So this is what hope sounds like in music form.
Machxile This comment is perfect
Machxile Yes. Yes it does
Pretty curious.
If the aliens wants to destroy us, this song would be played lol
hope and the will to realize it!

@@mascotwithadinosaur9353 A good anime/manga series that has that good use of words and mysteries is Made in Abyss, it's my 2nd favorite anime then it's One Piece
27 episodes, only in 8, Kamina is quite possibly the most impactful short-lived character I've ever seen
Well he was a very important main character. But I agree
I was kind of angry on Trigger and Gainax to write him out of the story this fast because he was my favorite and i prefered him over Simon, but the guy that Simon becomes were unexpectedly a good character..
I swear u are right absolutely right
Such a well written character that he had a huge impact on my life and countless others.

It is worth fighting for a world where you can watch Gurren Lagann

Can we get mecha with drills in the fight though
Well said the human pratice
The true lesson at the end of the day
Went from 133kg to 100kg in 2015 thank you Kamina.
26/12/2022 Update: I was able to lose 50kg ish total. Unfortunately I was unable to keep it off. Now I know what to do to lose the weight in the future when the opportunity arises.

From 100 lbs to 130lbs and still growing. Just who the hell do you think I am!!!
Anything's possible with enough fighting spirit!
Always extremely proud of the people who come here time and time again and share their stories of what this song helped get them through. To the new Gurren Lagann fans, to the old, and to the people who got this in their reccomended. This is a place of hope, always believing in yourself and going even beyond that. Remember to kick logic to the curb and do the impossible!
row row fight power
It sure is incredible. We feel that much closer with people we've never met, and we understand that ultimately, we're all in this together, and we should push forward together. I just passed all of my exams last semester for my zoology degree, which was really amazing since I had been consistently struggling beforehand with the last two years of work, always facing setbacks. To pass all the ones I just did was immensely fulfilling, and reminded me that I can get through it eventually, even though things have been really hard. Keep well out there, everyone. :)
Never say die! Keep pushing, we all believe in you!

This Is The Story Of A Man Yet To Realize His Destiny
This is the story of a man searching for his destiny/betrayed by his destiny/ripped a whole in the universe's destiny, etc.
Cool little tidbit i noticed, The voice actor for the Narrator(in the dub, anyway) is the same voice actor that plays old Simon at the very end. So i think that this whole show is him quietly going around the world and telling this story to whoever will listen.

I went through a very tough year. Almost went broke and penniless after 6 months of no work during the lockdown. That's when I watched Gurren Lagan and played this song almost everyday. Thank you Kamina. Your spirit kept me strong. Truly. Today I am doing great, my life is back on track - I believed in myself because you believed in me. Because you believed in us all. THANK YOU.

I stopped coke, alcohol, started muai thaï and picked up weight training again, going from 150 lb fully clothed to 170lb of muscle in 2 month. I’m unbroken, my spirit fights on!

A real man never dies, even when he's killed!
Avery McGurk ur damn right
No one embodies this concept better than Kamina, who phrased it so perfectly.
"A real man never dies, even when he's killed! No! He's remembered. By those around him. By those he's affected. By those close to him. Through them, he lives on! PIERCE THROUGH THE HEAVENS!! GURREN....LAGANN!!!!" Start reading this quote at around 2:10 =D

Then i watched gurren lagann and I got inspired to hit up the gym, then after some months I started climbing and i will compete in competitions soon, then last summer i also learnt to boxe and now i'm here, very good climber and lots of muscles, thank you kamina!
Congrats. I’m happy for you.

Gurren Lagann was one of those anime that were unique in just about every way possible. Art style was amazing, voice acting top notch and the fast paced story made sure there was never a dull moment and the soundtrack was amazing as well. I hope that this master piece is never forgotten
This is one of those anime that I absolutely love rewatching with different people just to see their reactions.
IKR! I'm even getting my mom into it!
singyist never!!! Ill make sure of that
On our backs, and in our hearts
It’s become a classic in the anime community. It definitely won’t be forgotten, it’s up there with the likes of Neon Genesis Evangalion and Cowboy Be-Bop. It has become an anime where even non-anime fans enjoy it, just like Dragon Ball Z and Tri-Gun, two other anime that is liked by non-anime fans.
Till to this day, No anime like this can give you this much hope and motivation.
I know, I know
More like no piece of media could reach this level of hope. Not only limited to anime

PIERCE THE SKY WITH YOUR ART
From the filthy ass dirt, piercing through the ceiling and soraring far past the surface, above the world and the whole universe Gurrel Lagaan is about humanity's ascension to the heavens
Nicely put man!
Let this song go in your head when you are feeling down, when you feel like all hope is lost. When you feel like you can't keep going. Remember, there are people who believe in you. Believe in them
However, don't let believing in them hold you back! Even without them, you can keep growing a little stronger, moment by moment, until you can believe in the you that believes in you!
Then take a step further, to become the you that you believe in!
And one final push...

Kamina was one of many bright threads in a greater tapestry

Simon inspired Kamina by his actions and in return Kamina inspired Simon by his words that ripples through him for all of eternity
And I find this writing to be absolutely beautiful
is this music copyright strike i want to use it for vid
@@antispiralking0 I dunno about this video but it is definitely not copyright free, so I'd avoid using it
This was the first anime that got me to anime. It holds a special place in my heart. My father isn't the best and I have self confidence issues due to it. Seeing Kamina support Simon made me latch on as a positive male role model. Whenever I feel down or maybe suicidal I rewatch this to get that passion back.
Stay strong bud , We've never know each other probably never will but keeping fighting we all have to fight in order to find a better tomorrow and when you do reach it the sight you're gonna see is gonna be beautiful just like what kamina and simon saw when they first came to the surface
Great start, into a hopefully great Journey.
Keep your Eyes on your Path, never look down and even if you do, remember, Simon did too and after that, he threw Galaxies to some Mecha and saved almost everyone. And if you don't care, because it is fictional, let me, a real person, tell you something: No one starts with a good life. Everyone fights with their problems, Your father, me, you and everyone on this planet. But let me tell you something! The best moments in our life is when you break the wall you thought it was unbreakable! Because behind it were a paradise all the time. There will be people or things who will come across your live and want to build that Wall again and again, but if you stand up and break the shitty crap Wall the 1000th time you know it was worth it everytime you see this damn paradise and even if it is just for one day or a moment. Some people give up and find never the Paradise and some people will fall and fall, but stand up to see that paradise. My advise to you. Never give up. And even if you do, stand up. As often as you need
@Five o’clock pervert Well said
i grew up without a father and i have a little brother, watching gurren lagann made me want to inspire my brother, and ever since i've always tried to push him to be better and in turn he does the same for me, feels good to know im not the only one who learned something valuable from this anime, hearing this music makes me happy i had the luck of watching it, hope you keep doing well, cheers!
@@ssstormer3734 Great! Going further step by step to surpass yourself from one second ago, that's how it must be!
I watched Gurren Lagann for the first time when I was 14, just started my rewarch a few days ago. I'm 21 now, and the reason why I waited, was because when I first watched Gurren Lagann, I was the same age Simon was at the start, now I'm his age after the time skip.
Simon is my favourite protagonist in anime and my inspiration, even after losing someone that meant everything to him, he still continued and eventually created the world Kamina envisioned. Gurren Lagann is to me, the greatest anime ever conceived. I used to be where Simon once was, lacking in faith and thinking those I loved would be better without me, but I believe in myself now. What gives me strength and what makes me who I am, is that I believe in myself.
Gurren Lagann will be my pride and joy till I die, I'll dig deep if I lose faith, and if I do, I'm lucky enough to have friends and family who believe in me. Thank you Gurren Lagann and thank you Simon. And to anyone who feels doubtful, go beyond and pierce the heavens, and if no one else will, then I'll believe in you
Hey bro, welcome to team Dai Gurren!!
I’m like you man. Actually I’m almost exactly like you. I go back to this anime at least once a year for the last 15 years now. It’s my favorite anime ever. Nothing touches what this anime means to me. I’ll represent team Dai Gurren until the day I have to dig my own grave and pierce through the heavens myself.
I’m turning 35 this year and I couldn’t be a much more prouder fan of Gurren Lagann and to see how it still is able to affect peoples lives even to this day.
Once again, welcome bro. And always believe in the you that believes in yourself!!

"It's just about drills and stuff"
No, it's about many things combined making one of the best animes i've ever watched playing a big role in my childhood, the anime was great af
But it really is all about drills. Spirals.
The spiral of the galaxy and the universe, endlessly expanding outwards against the void.
The spiral of DNA, the infinite potential of life and growth
The spiral of the human spirit, its dualistic potential to drill into oneself or to fight for the future of your whole race.
It is about drills. Drills are everything we and the world we live in ARE.
Today I lost my job opportunity, the interviewer told me I wasn't good enough for the job, but... who the hell does he think I am!?

I'm sure you'll find something suitable sooner or later dw :)
Let's fucking go
I hope you will get better job than the job which you interviewed before.
Dude this was fucking legendary lol
Even though this is a Gainax anime, I have always considered this a TRIGGER anime cause some of the big names and staff that made Gurren Lagann made their own studio called Trigger, it also fits more with Trigger since they made Kill La Kill which feels like a spiritual successor of Gurren Lagann
dont forget Trigger also did Little Witch Academia which actual references TTGL with a mech fight.
Cyberpunk Edgerunners now too 🎉

...No. A real man never dies, even when he's killed! We've lost nothing -- only dug another step further through the wall between us and the heavens!
If we dig to the heavens, we'll see Kamina again! Once we break through...IT MEANS THAT WE'VE WON!!!
The first time I stumbled upon Gurren Lagann I was in the trenches of studying for the MCAT. This anime has sometimes been the only thing giving me the motivation to push through. Today I just got accepted to medical school.
I JUST FINISHED WATCHING LIKE 2 MINUTES AGO ITS 2 AM AND I DONT CARE THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING ANIME I HAVE SEEN AND I THOUGHT NOTHING COULD TOP EVANGELION I LOOOVEEEE GAINAX FOR MAKING THIS AMAZING STORY AND I JUST DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY LIFE NOW I FEEL LIKE A WANT TO HOLD A INSPIRING SPEECH SOMEWHERE PEOPLE WONT RECOGNIZE THIS SONG AND PLAY IT AND FINISH IT WITH THE WORDS OF KAMINA AND SIMON AND EVERYONE OMG I CANT HANDLE THE EPICNESS AND FEELS
Try watching the anime, has alot more detail in it
THATS WHAT I MEANT I WATCHED THE ANIME!!
Tell us how you really feel.
Dis anime sucks.
That moment you realize Kamina never told anyone goodbye for the same reason Kittan didn't say "I'm off, you bastards!" to look cool, because they knew that even if they died they would keep on living with their friends as one, in their memories, in their hearts and on their backs, to push them to their victory. They needn't say "Good-bye" because they knew they would never be gone.
I use to quote kamina all the time when I gave advice
Me too. shhhhh :)
Reject common sense to make the impossible possible! KAMINA'S BADASS!!!
Good I'm not the only one
It happens when your inspired by greatness.
That's because Kamina has some good advice.
Man, coming back to this song after so long fills me with the energy i truly needed. And when i scroll down the comments, i see all my fellow brothers and sisters experiencing the same thing i am. I'm so glad that this anime was created and it helped to start a flame in our hearts, that will burn even brighter each and every day. Do the impossible, Because life is a battle that we intend to win!
YOOOO awsome to see that passion. Here's hoping I you comment here again in the future.
Gurren Lagann will always hold a special place in my heart and soul, even though it was shorter than most acclaimed anime series, it impacted my life greatly, i am so thankful that i experienced this through my childhood, and now i have grown to take hold of tomorrow with both hand and never give up! I will strive for the tomorrow i hope to bring to the world, a better place, just like Kamina believed in! I will head towards tomorrow, and I will believe in myself... In the me who believes in myself! Because so long as you believe, you can truly attain what you thought was impossible. I went from being a sniveling nobody in highschool, not nearly a friend to talk to, always being bullied, and now, many years later, i have evolved from the person i was before, i have attained great heights and have achieved a happiness and friendships that will span across the eons! Just like Kamina said. KICK LOGIC TO THE CURB! All you gotta do is believe, because your willpower and determination will shine through and evolve along side you. With each turn of life you will grow as well. JUST LIKE A DRILL!!!!
amen
hizoka andou indeed.
That is the beauty of Gurren Lagann, the story of facing fate, destiny and logic in the face and saying No. Saying we choose. Saying that We can do anything.
Fuck ya man. Wherever, whoever you are. I hope you're striving for that illusive tomorrow. And if you fall if you question yourself here's hoping you'll show those grit teeth
Many years have passed since the first time I witnessed this story. Now there is an actual 1:1 replica of the legendary Dai Gurren Dan flag hanging at my living room.And tonight, I can really tell how much time passed. Also, I am really far from where I started ... and I know I will go on and surpass everything as I know for sure it seems hard when I started before ... however, it was only a fullfilling and growing experience, as every breath of our lives pushes us into the future where greatness awaits for us. Thanks and love to all the lights in the sky ... those are us. We are those stars.
GURREN LAGANN IS A FLAG FOR HOPE.
IT IS A BEACON OF LIGHT, WHICH CAN NEVER BE BLOWN OUT!
IT WILL SHOW NO MERCY TO THE DARKNESS.

Quien demonios crees que somos; grande Kamina
When I first watched this back in 2009 I was 19 and I thought that I was already mature enough to not jump around in excitement when something awesome happens in every action show I watch.
I was wrong.
With both arms stretched outwards and flailing about, I was screaming "Yeah!" at the top of my voice with my 2-year-older brother like we were 3-year olds enjoying the hell out of MMPR or Ultraman doing their finishing poses as their enemies dramatically fall before exploding into a giant, yet beautiful fireball.
TTGL sure made me feel like a kid again.
And like a REAL MAN. At the SAME TIME! That's the kind of show TTGL is!
I just finished watching this on Netflix and I just want to say this is the greatest show I've ever watched. I love the plot and the characters and I actually felt something when bro would give a speech and I was devastated when bro and everyone else died. This show actually made me feel something from a show. Which rarely happens
The most epic moment of anything I've ever watched was when this played to Kamina's final giga drill break. Man, what a scene
My grandmother passed recently, and today was her funeral celebration. I realized how many lives one woman affected in such a positive way, and I want to do the same with my life. She always saw the best in people and held this factual belief that the ones she loved would succeed. I still feel her love pushing me forward, like the turning of a drill I will press on!!!

This show helped me through a lot in life since I first saw it back in 2013. It still does to an extent and I'm glad this series has such positive vibes, it appeared in a time that I desperately needed and I'm thankful for that. Let's hope there are other great series in the future inspired by it, spiraling out on to their own uniqueness.
Compare it to today's anime & it blows them out the water.
Really is a timeless masterpiece.
It’s not like this anime is old. 2007 is still recent (at least for me since I’ve been watching anime for over 20 years).
Also there’s no need to compare.

I am hardcore DB/DBZ fan, but this anime is just so special. In 27 episodes they've done everything. Non stop action. While watching almost any other anime sometimes trough the series I get sleepy, but in this one.. Not even for a second. I mean, Goku needs that many episodes just to get his spirit bomb, ffs. Voice cast, music, plot, conversations.. Just everything is perfect. My eyes got teary every time I'm watching or listening to something from TTGL. If it only had more episodes. I got to excited and watched whole anime in just couple of days. I'm yet to see movies but I don't want to rush it this time.
I had a real rough final semester of college that completely broke my passion. I want to be a teacher who my students will deserve so I needed to regain my passion. I started listening to this song every single day. While doing so I would run around my dorm and dance. Thank you Gurren Lagann.

HELL YEAH!!!!
WHY!?!?!?!?!? DEAR GOD WHY!?!?!?!?!?!?
Simon surpassed kamina
Simon and Kamina are together in heart and soul, he has surpassed kamina by becoming the man that kamina saw him to be
But you miss the point, Yes Simon was more powerfull than Kamina, Yes he Surpassed Kamina. But would Simon of ever got there without Kamina? No. They are both amazing in their own right but just sitting there and dismissing Kamina just because 'Simon surpassed him' is honestly and insult to Simon's character.
This strange child who drills forever upward -- Simon the Digger... He's not Kamina, and he never will be. But even so, no matter what, nothing will stop him! Nothing will stand in his way! His drill is the drill that will pierce the heavens! WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK HE IS?!
no one can kill Kamina he will forever be the role model of manliness

Kosaburo Ijymo indeed
+Christial Jack (Le cowhunter) then they jump back on and watch the movies for even more badassness
I was pretty bummed when it ended. Never felt that way before on a anime.
Even after more than a decade, this song still gets me.
Good times.
If anyone ever ask me to describe Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann i will say it is an anime that will make you say "I can do it" after you finish it. I never found any anime that give me this much of motivation than this anime
My bro is dead, he's gone, but he's right here on my back and here in my heart. He lives on as a part of me!
If you're gonna dig, dig to the heavens. No matter what's in my way I won't stop. Once I've dug through, it means that I've won!
Just who the hell do you think I am? I'm Símon. I'm not my bro. I'm me! Símon the Digger!!!!
Finishing move: Giga! Drill! Break!!!!
this OST should get a reward for being the most *inspiring song* of all time!
I personally thing when talking about Insirational "libera me from hell" was like more Inspirational and hyping, but both indeed are 10/10 for sure. (but this Soundtrack is very Inspirational, no question left)
for sure! this is up there with Departure to the Frontlines from Naruto shippuden for me
When I listen to this ost I don't know how to explain how I feel but I feel so different and I feel like I can take on anything and everything no matter if it's impossible
Keep at it! :D
Since June 10th, I've lost 21 pounds and begun picking up the pieces of my life again. Im going to advance forward with each turn of the drill from now on. Thank you for believing in me. I'm ready to believe in myself.
“Don’t believer in yourself! Believe in me! Believe in the me that believes in you!”
I actually understand this line.
Also note that he changes it slightly each time Simon takes it to heart, nurturing his badassery one step at a time.
My friend started watching Gurren Lagann. He’s only at the start, but he said that Simon reminds him of me, making reference to his weaker side during the first few episodes. Sure, I was a little disappointed that my own best friend said that, but at the same time, I feel good, because he doesn’t know the kind of man Simon will become in the future...
Did he finish it? What did he say about Simon in reference to you?
@@kingergang5629 Well he agreed that Simon became really awesome but that was about it. He likes Kamina more though, who is now one of his favourite anime characters.
@@MoistSquirrel38 Sad and at the same time good to hear!
Sounds like a shitty friend if he was serious.
Everytime...this makes me tear up everytime.
What a series
MAKE THE IMPOSSIBLE... POSSIBLE!
Do the impossible...
See the invisible...
Touch the untouchable...
Break the unbreakeable...
ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWER
+Tiger66261 this is toher song ¬¬ get away
GOING-BEYOND-THE-IMPOSSIBLE PUUUNCH!!!
its possible to make it impossible.
Nah... If u put one dot and space in the word "impossible" -> i'm possible
With your dream! Pierce the heaven!!!
I listened to this on the day that I took the CE board exam. I had already failed it once, and I was still nervous and anxious about re-taking. "Will it be enough this time?" "What if I fail again?" - those thoughts filled my head.
But as I was about to leave to go take the exam, I decided to listen to this song, and I just cried. Not a sad cry, but a hopeful cry. I went in there scared, but hopeful.
This song gave me hope and confidence that I could pass the exam.. and I did. I passed and became a licensed CE. When the results were announced, I listened to this with happy tears.
And so I find myself back here again from time to time, to pay my respect. To whoever is reading this, believe in yourself. If not then believe in me. Believe in the me, who believes in you!
Currently experiencing cancer-like symptoms and as a human being, I can't help but feel fear. Will have my doctor's opinion once i show the results of my tests.
Despite fear being present in every person, there's always a shining beacon of light that I look forward to. Life is truly worth fighting for. There will always be HOPE.
To whoever's reading this, despite your struggles, we are here to help you in any way we can. Your spiral friends are here for you.
You wanna know the most badass thing imaginable? Cancer can't survive in fever like state. If you get a chance to, go on a hike throught a mountain or jungle, get a fever that makes you delirious. Cancer cells have to hide in your body and thus they can't produce the required proteins to survive in a hyperthermic environment, to do so they essentially have to alert your immune system. Also people with muscle mass have an easier time getting rid of cancer, so do combination treatments, workout and get a 40+ fever
Fight the powa man! Hopefully all goes well.
I don't care which universe you're from, this has to sound epic to you
Epicness in it's purest form.
This needs to be added to the Voyager 1 lol
This song isnt just about finding hope...its about finding your fuel 🔥🔥🔥, your courage, determination, your strength...and belief not in what people see in you..but in what you, see within yourself....
believe in the believe that believes in the believe
I BELIEVE!!!!!
Believe it
that's the way team gurren rolls
When the comment is better than the post
Ian thats the way team BELIEVE rolls
i think boota was the main protagonist
Lol
@Morgothos r/woosh
Bruh legit I wanna eat boota's tail so badly
Boots is a true stunted pig-mole and will be remembered forever.
*angry like*
I suffer quite hard from depressive episodes and have considered (but never attempted) suicide many times.
But every time I do, I watch Gurren Lagann.
The pure energy this anime gives. The raw emotion to strive towards tomorrow, no matter how uncertain, to keep fighting. I can never get enough of it.
It saves me when I need it the most. Thank you, Gurren Lagann. Nothing will top you in my books.
The greatness of this song will never end! right click on the video and then click the option "Loop", and the epicness will last forever. But when things finally do come to an end, remember, "Thrust through the heavens with your Spirit!"
I'M-ALREADY-LOOPING-THIS-VIDEO-FOREVER PUUUUUUNCH!!!
This ost is so motivational. I’m literally listening to it while working out and while studying lmao. I finished the anime yesterday and I downloaded some of the osts and definitely gonna be listening to them for a while now 🔥
whats the name of this one, i cant find it
Simon was the main character, but in my personal opinion Kamina was the MVP of this series, heck in Lagann hen he is Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann! Kamina is just awesome!
If not for Kamina, team Gurren would've never even been started. Simon would've never been inspired to pierce the heavens of Gihah(?) Village and beyond.
+Whovian_BenK Actually, without Kamina, Simon would have turned into Shinji Hikari
UltraGalaxyify basically Simon would of never had the confidence to pierce the heavens and humanity would of likely gone extinct. Mhm
+Cho Tengen Toppa Nep Nep While I agree with all of you,Simon was also the driving force behind kamina's actions as well. It's really not about who influenced who,they influenced each other. Kamina is most definitely the icon and spirit of Dai Gurren,but Simon,unbeknownst to him,gave reason to Kamina's actions. Soul brothers,as Kamina would call it. :')
"He's always the one who saves my ass. He's always the one who never gives up. My confidence was shot. I thought we were heading in the wrong direction. I freaked out. "Why did my dad make it and I can't?" Honestly I was just acting tough. Everyone was whining, and they stopped digging. I was at the end of my rope. But Simon kept on drilling away. His drilling let my put on a brave face. By dumb luck, he broke through the last boulder right then. [...] Whenever I feel timid and weak, whenever I feel like I'm losing confidence, I think back to the sight of his back all hunched over, digging away. I think to myself "I'll be a man that won't be laughed at by that back.""
He's a deeper character than he seems to be, too.
This show did a lot to keep me alive at one point, and helped me find the family I have today. To everyone here talking about what they've gone through and how they've perservered: good work, we got this, keep going. Who the hell does this world think we are?
I dont know why, but this song makes me want to cry.
not many things do these days
This is the story of a man who fought against all odds...
The Ballad of Edgardo the Brawler
It fits Kamina's last fight scene so well, doesn't it?
"If there's a wall in our way, we'll smash it down! If there isn't a path, we'll carve one ourselves!"
DaRkLoRdZoRc
"Who the hell do think we are!?!?!" it gets me every time
***** Of course you do! its fucking Kamina, the badass who was spoiler as spoilers!!!!
Wow sorry, didn't catch that its changed now so its alright
Don't forget A Gut Named Squid
Still listening 13 years later, this anime is timeless and is etched into my very soul, I have never bared witness to a more positive message than the ones gurren lagann drills into you, pun intended
Believe in the you that believes in yourself
Same here buddy
Why am I crying? This song is supposed to cheer me up and inspire me.
Because most of us here do
because we're all gurren lagann fans
its hope, hope can bring tears too
It only takes one falling pebble to start an avalanche.
If by pebble you mean a small human race into BREAKING MULTIPLE DIMENSIONS AND GROWING AS WIDE AS THE OBSERVABLE UNIVERSE....then yeah!
Listening to this while fighting Ornstein and Smough in Dark Souls gave me everything I needed to succeed after many tries.
Amo con toda mi Alma a TTGL , no importa cuanto tiempo pase cada vez me gusta más
Por aquí yo leo mucho... "porque Kamina tuvo que morír?" y miren probablemente muchos dicen eso a modo de meme pero la verdad creo que no todos comprenden todo lo increíble que hay detrás de esa decisión en la Narrativa
Aunque nos duela...ese tal vez sea es mayor Acierto de la Obra
Kamina es un personaje espectacular!! En su mundo toda la humanidad estaba esclavisada y nadie hacia nada al respecto todos lo aceptaron y listo...pero luego llego el , Un Hombre como cualquier otro en su mundo que ni siquiera era tan fuerte pero anhelaba que el y todos tuvieran libertad y tenía ese algo que tienen todos los que querían una cambio , aunque Kamina no lo mostraba el ante el peligro cuando estaba con sus compañeros el siempre tuvo miedo , tanto o hasta algunas veces mas que los demás pero hay está la cosa el sabía que los demás ante esas situaciones necesitaban alguien , alguien que les diera la fuerza y la esperanza de luchar para conseguir lo que a ellos fue negado hace miles de años , y el decidió convertirse en ese alguien , decidió que nunca hiba a retroceder ya que si el lo hacía...todos a los que el quería también lo arian...y eso incluye a Simon
Kamina estaba consiente de todo el poder que simon tenía pero no podía usarlo ya que el no tenía la voluntad necesaria para hacerlo y por eso el le dio el ejemplo... mientras Kamina estuvo luchando junto a Simon le mostró todo lo que el podía hacer al el hacerlo , Kamina le dio su Voluntad a Simón con forme ellos mas tiempo estuvieron juntos , Cuando Simon perdió a Kamina le tomo tiempo parce cuenta y por eso es que Nia se volvió tan importante para Simon ya que le mostró que aunque Kamina no estuviera el nunca se debe dar por vencido ya que...Kamina Confió en Simon y después el descubre su propia fuerza y hace mas poderoso que lo que incluso fue Kamina a su lado ya que aunque ellos estuvieran el gurren lagann Kamina como piloto principal dolo podía rozar todo el potencial de Simon
La serie nos muestra que lo mejor era que Kamina tenía que morir , no sólo para que Simon despertará su Energia Espiral por si propia cuenta , sino que si el no moría poco a poco el Iría perdiendo relevancia con forme avanzaba la serie porque poco a poco se Iba enfocando más en Simon que en el y al final sólo quedaría con un personaje común en vez de el Símbolo que terminó siendo para industria del Anime junto a Simón
El creador de Gurren lagann hizo todo el Tema de Kamina Y Simon a la perfección y hace que queramos que eso no terminará nunca pero simplemente eso era imposible por que el sabía que pasaría si Kamina no moría , su historia se estancaria y a nosotros como espectadores nos cuesta aceptarlo...pero es lo mejor ya que haci... Tengenn Toppa Gurren Lagann quedó Siendo la Obra de Arte que es
Espero que allan podido entenderme ya que creo que también me fui un poco por las ramas y es un poco complicado ya que para entender se deben tener en cuenta muchos factores de la obra
TU TALADRO SERÁ EL TALADRO QUE PERFORARÁ LOS CIELOS, CRISTIAN!!
@@MonoInfinito muchas gracias 😁
Asi como lo dices, Simon tuvo un desarrollo espectacular tras desprenderse de las cadenas de la deseperacion tras la muerte de su "hermano", ademas de que fue mas efectivo su arco antes mencionado para lograr grandes cosas, ay si tan solo aquel tipo al que llaman Naruto Verde hubiera perdido a su mentor de una forma similar en lugar de que el autor no deje a nadie tieso para dar el obligatorio final feliz donde nadie muere luego de una gran guerra...
The moment this plays in episode 8 at Kamina's last stand i immediately started tearing up and i realised what kind of show this is. I DROPPED Gurren Lagann in my first watch i think on episode 3, i deemed it was silly and some parody of Mecha anime not worth of watching, boy was i wrong. I picked it back up in one of the toughest times of my life few month's later, I have NEVER WATCHED more inspiring show in my life. Messages this show expresse's are what makes it such a good show, its an ode to life. I think more media should be used like this to motivate people to change for the better, this anime has a SOUL, whick 90% of anime dont have, today nearly none. If you are depressed, or you lost someone important you should give it a go, these are one of the main theme's of this show. Till this day few year's later still my favourite anime and for me best anime ever made. Truly one of a kind
Funny enough gurren lagann has impacted my life once again, ive started college and i cant believe i pushed myself this far, and who knew the actions i took made me look back at gurren lagann once again. I mean there is this girl who believes in me because i believe in her. Now i need to believe in myself :3
Gurren lagann will live on forever 20 years from now people will still watch just like people watch neon genesis evangelion
What if Gurren Lagann is actually the future of the world?
heck yeah!!!
Because Gurren Lagann and Evangelion are like PB&J
Gurren lagann i feel is closer to something like star wars or harry potter. It's a classic hero's tale nothing more nothing less and that's what makes it so good.
It's already been almost a decade since it came out and I just finished it for the first time and absolutely loved it.
To me, it's not so much about "hoping" for a better future, but rather struggling to create it in spite of adversity.
Hope won't fight for you. Hope won't keep you alive. You will.
And so long as you act, you will fail and succeed. Failure and success aren't permanent. If you fail, the world will continue changing and giving you more opportunities. If you succeed, the world will not stop retaliating with obstacles.
It's not about how much you can "win" or how little you can "lose" in life. It's about how long you can keep going. It's about how much trust you place on yourself.
A mecha comparison video where a newspaper is one of the largest thing brought me here
And now I'm in love with this
I saw that video too and I laughed.
@@soniagutierrezquiroz5596 Ayo nice to see you for the 4th Time! Want a Cup of Tea while being here?
This song is the culmination of epicness, determination, and trust. The power of believing not only in the you who believes in yourself, but as well as in others. This allways makes you feel like you can thrust through the heavens with your spirit.
Nothing is as pure as this show
Pure, unadulterated badass
@@iancomtois9832 i like your comment lol
@@iancomtois9832 Vegeta???
I always come back to this song. I love this show.
I love this anime so much. I love it so much for so many reasons but above that message of belief and hope. Breaking past your limits, staying true to who you are despite all that is around and succeeding is a possibility. Our world is damaged, full of hurt, sorrow, evil. But hope and faith still remain. Love still remains. Gurren Lagann is lesson on that, and that’s what makes living through it all worth it
❤
