True, it is about manliness and all that jazz, but I really think you're downplaying it with the "brainless" label. When I think "brainless" in an anime, I'm thinking lowest of the low, like random retarded shit going on all over the place. There are plenty of those. Gurren-Lagann isn't random or haphazard in any way, it just has a breakneck pace and really awesome actions segments.
Still, I understand what you mean in that it's not necessarily emotional, complicated, or dramatic, I just think "it's a brainless action show" is a bit of an insult to the franchise, considered how well-timed and well-crafted it was overall, as well as the number of other shows that truly deserve that label. Gurren-Laggan is not just manly, but a manly work of art. |

Well, that's easy to say in hindsight isn't it? But to be honest, no one but Our Lord Suzumiya Haruhi sama knows just how well a show could have have done until it's aleady released and evaluations can be made. If they had a great happy "everyone lives happily ever after" ending then there would be other people lambasting the show for being too 'unrealistic' (lol) and 'emotionally cheap'. Sure Gainax didn't make a perfect show, but they made the best show they could have. And it's still really ****ing awesome. So let's respect them for that.

Kamina because HE'S THE WHOLE REASON THIS SHOW EXISTS. XD
But really, I adore all the characters. It's very hard to choose between the main four: Kamina, Simon, Yoko, and Nia. They're all fantastic. I also have a fondness for the twins, Gimmy and Darry after the time jump. Darry's so cute!!

1.) Kamina: a bold type who carried a lot of spirit in the show. He really appealed to me (aside from his fabulously fabulous athletic figure~~) when I watched Gurren Lagann, IMO, because of his over-the-top, true-to-himself actions. He quickly earned my #1 character spot for this series.
2.) Yoko: She's adorable, and, even though she's independent and carries a gun that's taller than her male companions, she still acts like a girl. I like that about her. Plus, as a Yoko cosplayer, I think it's important to love the character you cosplay in order to fully enjoy your costume and your experience in costume~ 3.) Leeron: homg this guy became one of my favorites early on, also. He's one of the few Gurren Lagann characters whom I love in both the Japanese and English dub, because his dialogue is some of the best in the show. <3 4.) Adiane: Between her and Viral, she was a little like comic relief. Sure, she was tough on Viral, but her constant abuse toward him made for some funny physical humor. And, I really like her outfit~~ <3

:O i must admit yall older members are rather epic anything i add now will probably just end up coming off as dumb... but here i go! My favorite character in this series was Viral, for the simple reason that his exsistance was tragic. He had substance. He wanted a wife and kids and I felt sad that he couldnt have them So thankyou Viral for making me feel sad for a nonexsistant being
