![They Made a GURREN LAGANN DECK!?!? [Yu-Gi-Oh! Archetypes Explained: Centurion]](/img/n.gif)
Pin me hard
Kyaaaaa~~~~
That's what she said.
Oh *YES* daddy!
Harder daddy
pin the heavens with your pin
I love how kamina manliest manly man in anime tells his girlfriend how insecure he is and how much he rallies on Simon
I clicked 3 times on the like button thinking i could give more than 1 like...
"kamina manliest manly man in anime"
Nice joke
Literally oof it’s so true and real.
Some Guy literally no one in the history of anime is as manly of a man as kamina, don’t bring up jojo bullshit if that’s what you were aiming at
@@ih7552 To be fair while Jojo does have manly characters none of the ones I've seen are as manly as Kamina.
Maybe that's because I am only on part 3 right now
I stopped watching after you said “watch this show blind” and I don’t regret it this show is well worth the 27 episode investment
I'm thrilled to hear it!!!
“Believe in the me, that believes in you”
You don’t think you can do it. But you believe in me right. Well I believe you can do it. So if you can’t believe in yourself, believe that I am right about you.
It really is perhaps a pure distillation or what a self doubting person needs to hear and a great way to start work your way out of depression.
What a complete load.
A flawless dissection of an already inspiring line. Kudos.
"Believe in the Simon, that believes in you.” This might be the end goal to that self doubting person, something that SImon accomplishes till the end.
It pretty genius because lets be real, you cant pressure people to believe in themselves, you have to trick them over some whatever person thing. And that it does flow from him straight that he belueves in simon within that. Neat trick.
This is a great motivator for me because i never know when i'm doing it right or wrong, so the thinking that i don't need to believe in myself but instead believing in the people that believe in me and making the better to make then true
the one quote from this series ill never forget is the final words of Kamina, "Don't Believe in the Simon I Believe in. Don't Believe in the Kamina that you Believe in. Have Faith in the Simon that Believes in you."
*manly tears*
this might be the main theme of the whole series, if you think about it, under all the intergalactic battles
What made me fall in love with this show was when Kamina unsheathes his sword for like 10 minutes laughed the whole time
the art of the infinite sword
I saw that scene in a gif or something and that scene is why i started the series. Just looked so cool and over the top
I actively believe it was spiral power extending his sword so he could keep unsheathing it untill his speech was done to punctuate it properly and totally not just quirky animation
Towards the end of the last episode when Simon is talking to a boy who's drinking a coconut or whatever, Simon tries to say "Who the hell do you think I am?" but sees that the boy isn't listening and then says "I guess I'm no one...". Man that scene broke my heart
Simon didn't fall in love with his own legend, he didn't demand humanity show their gratitude by making him king and naming a month after him - he willingly hung up his weapons, and went into quiet retirement. He says "I guess I'm no-one" with real humility and a smile, and doesn't cling to his past or pine for some idea of lost glory. That's possibly his most superhuman moment, to me.
@@FullMetalJackson very true. It shows the true maturity from Simon who went from a scared shitless kid, to idolising kamina, to the literal god of the universe and finally giving all of that up and choosing the path of humility. Simon doesn't adapt kaminas persona he just solidifies his own, the kind and humble Simon that everyone knew was in him all along
@@Jafs One of the best attributes of his humanity.
@JJC glad to know :)
@@Jafs The thing that really got me during that scene was the spiral eye that Simon had. We know that through the power of the spiral that Lord Genom had lived for a thousand years. I feel that Simon will live for a long time and become humanities quiet observer, savior, and protector. The series was left open ended in my opinion and it was great way for the viewer to decided how the story really ends for them.
Kamina: "Hey when did you get taller then me!?"
🥲
Yo
Bro.. 😔
row row fight the power!
Do the impossible
See the invisible
@@khicks8799 Touch the untouchable

What you gonna do is what you wanna do, just
REEEEEQIUEEMM
ROW ROW! FIGHT THE POWA!!!
This series is what solidified my love for anime and I have watched countless since. Not many can live up to the hype though
SSJ Yamcha agreed I walked in with low expectations but by the end I found myself on a ride of up and down emotions
I fully agree
the exact same with me
Nothing can live up to gurren lagann
Same dude , my little brother told me to watch it a couple years ago and I did. The rest is history
*SPOILERS*
God I love this anime. Every time I’m reminded of it I feel such a strong nostalgia that tears start to well and a smile starts to stretch across my face, because this series brought me to both those extremes.
This video actually made me remember of a middle school memory, where after the episode where Kamina had passed away, I was so devastated that I planned to make a memorial for him. I was in my English class practicing stylizing Kamina’s name and the girl who I had a crush on saw me writing his name and asked me if that was the name of my girlfriend and I said yeah 😅
Girlfriend? Kamina is closer than a girlfriend.
"LET'S SEE YOU GRIT THOSE TEETH!!"
I love that quote. So much!
The last 3 episodes are an absolute masterpiece
watch the movie for a more amazing animated finale (though details are changed i believe to cut down the story to a movie but could also be to allow the events that look amazing to happen in the movie)
@@Xeno-The-Wanderer , indeed. The final fight between Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and the Anti-Spiral is one of the best parts of the franchise.
@@thenew4559 And one of the most powerful fights in all of fiction!...no really wtf the scale is immeasurable HOW CAN YOU BE MORE THEN 15-17 BILLION LIGHTYEARS TALL!?!?!?!
@@Xeno-The-Wanderer
Eh. I think in the movies they were trying to fix what wasn't broken. Only good changes I can name are giga-drill-matryoshka and the song in the final credits.
@@felixgutierrez993 What are you questioning?
JUS TWHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK THEY ARE?!
I spent years innately disliking anime until I watched this show recently.
Me too, even though I started with Kill La Kill (one of its spiritual successors), I also developed a craving for Gurren Lagann.
@@Mr.Coffee576 the last 2 sure... including MHA in that list just displays garbage taste
@@Mr.Coffee576 MHA and Naruto are good animes. If you disagree you are either braindead or haven't watched them.
Gokul Narayan for me it’s not like I despise the two, it’s that the fandoms make me want to go 👉🙃💦
IratePirate literally same here
i have a friend like kamina - i didn't know what TF she saw in me until i completed this series...then i realized what i'd been putting her through.
if you have a kamina in your life, believe them. they're not wrong about you. and keep them, because they're worth their weight in platinum.
The Row row fight the power song is what I listen to when I need to get motivated probably my favorite anime song
The name of the song is “Rap is a man’s soul “, or you can search it as “Libérame From Hell”
Do the impossible see the invisible, row row fight the power 🎶
This was honestly the first anime to make me cry
It STILL makes me SOB. not even at the bad parts, sometimes I'll have the biggest grin on my face and still by drinking my tears. It's such an extremes of emotions and I LOVE it.
After finishing gurren lagann I thought I’d never watch anything that’d inspire me half as much as it did. I just finished kill la kill yesterday and I’m stunned in disbelief that I found another one. The people at gainax/trigger are amazing at what they do and I can’t wait to watch the next banger they put out
There are others, and there is a theory out there, which I believe as well. Just like the Pixar theory, we believe that all of the trigger animes happen in the same world/timeline. I'm just not to much in a hurry to watch the others.
OZMOD3U5 I’ve seen a little bit of little witch academia, and there’s little Easter eggs in all of their animes that connect each other somehow
I've really been enjoying BNA it looks very similar to the art style of Kill la Kill
Jeff M BNA wasn’t as enjoyable imo but it has potential
@@kingfredo1161 kill la kill is another masterpiece. below TTGL but still a materpiece
Funny isn't it...how much we have learned from people who have never even existed ^^
Like "God"
@@Pirategod23 Hey now, I'm agnostic, but it isn't cool to try & shove your religious beliefs into a great comment.
there really isnt much of a difference between god or lets say kamina in practice actually when you think about it. Both are really, in the end, a set of values and ideals to look up to, that guide you.
Don't believe in yourself. Believe in me who believes in you!
@@CaptainCFalcon no i think he's trying to say that God doesn't exist but people still follow his teachings
This anime also changed my life just like how it changes yours. Bad relationship, being overweight, not going anywhere after high school, mothers death, childhood abuse. All of it obstacles overcame because I believed in the me that I believed in.
This show had a very similar effect on me tbh. When I was unsure of my own self-worth and was content to waste my days away as a nobody who would never move out from home or get a job, I found this series. It changed me, too. It made me look at the world in a new way. When my pop died, I was grief-stricken, and I didn't know what to do. This series showed me that even in the face of the death of a loved one, you can carry their will with you to keep them alive and strengthen yourself. I started using "Who the hell do you think I am" to psyche myself up. I AM damn important, and if you underestimate me, you'll be sorry. That kind of mindset may seem arrogant, but it got me to believe in myself. I got a job. I moved away from home. Started living with my girlfriend. And while I'm far from successful or rich, I'm also far from being done growing. We move forward, a little with each turn. That's how a drill works. And it's why Gurren Lagann saved me, and allowed me to become my best self.
My GOAT series too
"Just who the hell do you think I am!"
Wow I get the same exact reaction when I hit people with “Who decided that?” - Kamina’s quote is so so great though.
It's interesting to see that "Believe in me that believes in you" is very well remembered even if during episode 8, Kamina says "Believe in yourself. Not in the Simon that I believe in. Not in the Kamina that you believe in. Have faith in the Simon that believes in you."
This part is the conclusion of all the confidence boost of the first few episodes, yet no one ever mentions it.
I agree, and that's a shame.
Yeah it also triggers me a giga confidence boost when he says like that, clean your misconceptions of yourself, get a hold of this moment and be who you want to be. It comes with me deep in my heart because you can always choose to be driven by troubles or soar over it, seeing the opportunities and reaching them.
For me the life changing piece of media has to be Gaara vs Rock Lee. Just like youve watcher gurren lagann over 100 times ive watched the fight like 40+ (im gonna catch up to you soon ) I know every piece of dialogue in that fight and the one that sticks out the most is when Might Gai said "You're right all that hard work and effort is pointless if you dont believe in yourself " followed up by "Go out there and make me proud, be the person who you want to be, will you do that for me Lee ? " every time i hear does lines i cry my eyes out and then i feel the power of youth boost me forward. I think this entire fight is so easy to relate to. Everybody can sympathize with lee because we all see ourselves in him. If he falls we fall and when he gets back up it inspires us to get back up as well despite what everybody says or thinks. I think its beautiful such a simple idea with a perfect execution. Great video !
I have also used Kamina’s “believe in the me that believes in you” quote and people are just confused when I say it. Also I have also been changed by a series, as I’m sure many of us have. Mine was Hunter X Hunter, and the character that drove me and inspired me was Killua. He was incredible.
Mine is jojo's bizarre adventure because of all the characters of part 7 lol
I think everyone that loves and watches animes has that one anime that changed their life. And for me its Gurren Lagann and One Piece.
This show changed the life of a generation of weeaboo.
Destroy the sky, gurenn lagan
I LOVE that people are still talking about Gurren Lagann
Kamina changed my life. When he died I mourned as if someone very precious died. I have never experienced aomethinglike this again from fiction, only 8 episodes for me to be depressed from a character’s death is absolutely crazy to me
I had a very similar experience with this Anime. In a way it changed my life and made me realize that I always wanted to do something great. However I also realized that I was a lot like Simone in the begging. Once I watched it I really started crying because I realized that I never believed in my self enough to do anything that wasn’t going to be easy for me. I stayed “digging my tunnels” because I was good at it. I did this to the point of never trying anything new because I thought everyone was going to be better at it than me so I didn’t even allow myself to try. Now I try new things and actively shoot for the stars because I became the me who believes in me! Thanks for making this video its nice to know I’m not the only person who took this series to heart and was transformed by it.
Viral made it viral. Pun definitely intended
I have also used the “Believe in the new that believes in you” line IRL
I used 'kick logic to the curb and do the impossible' barely a few weeks ago.
That's the one that affected me the most. It's what sparked my spiraling confidence and unwavering belief in my ability. Just knowing that its inevitable that I succeed no matter what
I have when working with troubled youth
@@Akumatron Amazing. Every young man needs a Kamina there for them.
I told that to my uncle when his wife and he spent time apart. He fell into depression, and I helped him out.
Gurren Lagann had the same impact on me. It’s my favorite anime-original anime of all time
Shinji at the end of NGE and End of Evangelion realized that although he hates himself now he can learn to love himself. We never actually got to see Shinji get to the point where he loved himself. That is Simon, that Shinji that learned to love/accept himself, not trying to be anybody else, but to be the best version of himself that he can be.
Amazing series!! Watched it after hearing so much praise for it and it definitely lived up to it's hype.
Ironic that fictional characters in a fictional world we can never reach has a bigger impact than our own
Kamina teaches Simon to believe in himself for the sake of those around him who believe in him. But we quickly learn that this is not sustainable, as Simon seeps into darkness after Kamina, his inspiration and source of motivation and self-confidence, dies. He has no reason to believe in himself anymore. That's why later, Nia teaches him that he is someone of value too, giving him new motivation and a regained self-confidence. Before that, Kamina had also told him to "believe in the you that believes in you". This is a very powerful thing to say, and represent Simon's growth from an insecure boy to a man. That's beautiful.
It's also powerful because it says more than just believing in yourself. It also tells you to modify your self-image, to believe in yourself. Beliefs and identity motivate our actions, behaviors, and habits in ways we often underestimate. We often set out to self-improve by focusing on what we should do, instead of who we are and what we believe. We set goals and actions, but ignore the identity and beliefs that will drive those very actions. That's why "believe in the you that believes in yourself" is so powerful. In this seemingly simple phrase, it tells you to modify your self-image to believe in yourself. It tells you to believe in the self-confident version of yourself. And it's made powerful because Kamina spent time showing Simon that Simon was capable of great things in the first half. There is a very good build-up from "believe in the me that believes in you" to "believe in the you that believes in yourself".
"believe in the me that believes in you" represents teamwork and leadership built upon trust. Kamina himself believes in himself because he believes in Simon. He said it himself that, whenever he felt discouraged, he remembered the back of Simon steadily digging.
Kamina is a great leader because he inspires the entirety of Team Dai Gurren to believe in him, and thus believe in themselves because Kamina believes in them, but he is strong as a leader because he believes in them. His leadership is built upon mutual confidence and trust.
"believe in the you that believes in yourself" represents confidence built upon a congruent self-image
Dude, I'm exactly the same
Watched TTGL at 17 and it changed me since
Let's pierce the heavens, guys!
i can rant on and on about what i love about re : zero, i can feel your passion in this video and it makes me glad that you have something similar that i appreciate in my life
Dragon Maid personally helped me out of depression in a very hard time in my life.
It makes me really happy to see how many others resonated with the messages of this show. When I went into it I was not prepared for how weirdly inspiring it would be and lately I have been motivated to push past my preconceived limits and be more proactive in life.
The moment that Kamina said "Believe in the me that believes in you" brought a tear to my eye and a grin to my face ☺
Sir, I am writing to you to thank you this break down showed me something that I needed to see, thank you
Watching show helped me through some of hardest moments in the army. It motivated me, when I felt really down.
I just binged it and loved it, you hit the nail on the head with the review.
Yesss. I've waited for this one from the start of the new channel. 12 minutes of pure joy :D
I'm so glad you talked about gurren laggan, it's such a great series and I really went through such a similar experience to what you talked about in the video. I love this anime and it will always be my favorite anime and the black and white scene of kaminas death in the video hit me so much harder than I thought. Thank you Grandline/Newworld review for this
I really enjoyed listening to your monologue. I'm so glad you can take so much positivity from this incredible story.
I absolutely agree with this sentiment. I’ve been working on a story for most of my life thus far and it’s something very dear to my heart. As I write and re write, I’ve noticed touches of gurren lagann here and there that really left an impact on me. Even down to the simple cloak flutter when grown simon turns around, there is so many minor details that leave such s striking image in my mind. Kamina is one of my favorite characters in fiction, and his arc is something I still absolutely adore. I’ve met many people who are very lukewarm on the series, but gurren lagann will probably always remain one of the most important shows to me
literal goosebumps, had and am still going on almost the exact same evolution with this show, all time favorite and I owe so much of my success to it and the attitude it helped me develop. Couldn't have said it better myself, great video.
Every now and then I watch an anime that just reminds me exactly why I love the medium of anime.
This year it was Mob Psycho.
In 2011 it was Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagan.
It was bold,it was fast,it was colorful and cheerful but it also had a lot of heart,it was surreal but also deep,it was ecentric in its plot and character and above all it was SO DAMM FUN!
So yeah this is an anime that will pierce the heavens and take its place amongst the star.
Oregairu-the main character's self-sacrifice is a trait that i also possessed for quite a long time. but he has this quote that goes, "i don't need to be understood, as long as i understand" and i use it as an affirmation everytime i fear judgement from society.
Oregairu hasn’t really changed my life, no show really has. But this anime definitely left me in shambles at the end of S.2 and affected me more personally than any other series
Man it’s eerie how similar your story was to me, came out shorty after my father passed and it changed my life forever
I've been thinking of starting up a youtube channel to talk about some anime themes I dont see talked about a lot, and got a bit worried when I saw this video. I want to talk about the "Believe in the you that believes in you" line but luckily you covered the other spectrum of Kaminas confidence. That's a relief and great video, Gurren Lagann is my second favorite anime
TTGL is such a magnificent piece of art. I always come back to rewatch the series and find something new I love about it.
I just wanted to say that you’ve been one of my fav anime youtubers for the past half year/year and now seeing you’ve had the same expierence while watching Gurren Lagann is amazing! And probably makes you my fav anime youtuber atm. I think I was 16 when watching this, im 23 now and still everytime I hear the opening or see the moment Simon finally steps up. It gives me goosebumps all over over again.
Thank you very much for the amazingly kind words! And I'm thrilled that you experienced the greatness of Gurren Lagann!!!
When they made the movie the ending at the second movie was absolutely brilliant they should’ve used it for the series
they were running out of budget toward the end so a movie was necessary to get all the ideas after the investors see the sheer success of the whole series
Just finished this today and while I don’t entirely like the ending it definitely has some of the best themes and honestly motivates the hell out of me
I can absolutely relate to every single word you said about the “bond” between you and the series. When I first casually watched TTGL in the spring of 2013 at the age of 14, and being my name Simone, you understand that I literally found myself in anime version and so I fell in love with Simon, a character that really resembled me and that I could take inspiration from his growth.
Although at the time I could never imagine how important and impactful Gurren Lagann would become for me.
I still treasure my drill that I bought immediately after finishing the show, after almost 7 years later.
I love this show so much.
Believe me, it changed my life too.
While Outlaw Star inspired my First book a Lot, One Piece taught me about the Power of friendship and Dragonball showed me to never stop fighting... IT was probably Hellsing that inspired me the Most, because IT showed me that I didn't have to be normal or even Seen AS a Monster by Others to still be against "Evil" (Injustice, violence, racism, whatever) soooo thanks Alucard! And thanks Kamina for being awesome too.
Alan Watts had me reflecting on life before Gurren Lagann, but when I first saw Gurren I was basically screaming by the end. This is the greatest show I've ever seen. I always go back and the first thing I wanna do when I finish is watch it all over again. I could watch it on the daily for the rest of my life and never grow tired. I cry every time Libera Me from Hell plays.
I sooooo get where you're coming from. I was exact the same way. Gurren Lagan hit me at a time when I was at my most low. I dropped out of high school, was very overweight, and was bumming around doing nothing. The only thing that I had at the time was a dream of becoming a voice actor. But even then I never thought I could do it. I mean I dropped out of school, how could someone like me becoming a voice actor. But one day I said, why not. That changed everything for me. The why not mentality is truly strong. It helped me get my life together and is helping me fallow my dream of becoming a voice actor. It's believing in the you that you can become, not the you now.
I'm rewatching this anime right now and man it's such a tear-jerker with how optimistic it is! So yeah you hit the nail on the head there, so relate with what you said!
This video hit me really hard in the feelings. When I saw Gurren Lagann I was also going through a very tough time, very much alone and in a foreign country. TTGL gave me an indescribable power up and I still shed a couple tears of joy when I rewatch key moments. This series is an emotional treasure
This, Redline, and Space Brothers probably inspired me the most
i try to watch it at least once a year, and every time i do, its like the very first time. all the feels, spine tingling and emotionally rejuvenating. its sort of like the ultimate story of faith. Spirals have no limits. we can do anything we want
Great review
Dude, I can 100% relate to everything you've said. Gurren Lagann changed my life too, and whenever I feel down or unmotivated, just listening to the opening/ost or big scenes give me that power up that makes me instantly smile and just feel good really. Gurren Lagann is an amazing creation, both as a series and as an artistic piece of work. The over the top characters and action with the over the top in your face motto of DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE really became my own motto in life. And as an artist, this kind of message where you need to go beyond and do the impossible, do something you wouldnt even think of, and becoming great at it is a very powerful one. Gurren Lagann is so good. Much much love mate. Great to see others who have the same passion for a show I so Highly love.
It was amazing in my opinion. I feel alot of the feelings about this show that you talk about in this video. It kinda helps me accept some things in my life aswell and is amazingly inspiring to watch. I also love Area 11's song Heaven piercing drill. Its amazing!!
This anime was life man good stuff
I recently watched this anime and oh my god. It’s one of the best anime I’ve ever watched. Definitely watching it again sometime.
Row Row Fight The Power.
I'm a simple man, I see a video for Gurren Lagann, I watch it immediately.
Very similar boat, this show was the driving force to get me going in high school, even now I still return back to those moments. Honestly, the change and the upbeat attitude I started to have towards the end of high school was annoying to my friends and even now, people in high school can't believe who I became. All thanks to this show!
The anime that changed my life and got me into anime was yu yu Hakusho. My opinionated, best anime in existence. Great video!
I live my life principles based on the drill philosophy. With every turn we move forward even more. Our lives may seem to be looping but its actually an outwards spiral being the better us to our past self. I kept a core drill keychain for about 7 years now to constantly hold true to these values.
For me, it's Doctor Who. That franchise has been inspiring me since the age of 4, before I could read, write or even tell time, I was captivated by re-runs of the 1st and 2nd Doctors. More recently, I have found my all time favourite incarnation of the Doctor in Doctor number 12. Although I love every incarnation of the Doctor, 12 was the one that I connected with the most. I was particularly moved by his personal struggles through the three seasons he was with us as he was the Doctor who struggled the most with the cynical and irate emotional baggage the character has built up over the course of millennia of trauma and loss. Watching 12 learn to deal with his anger, pessimism, regrets and self-doubts, while he struggled to be a compassionate and heroic individual really helped me face my own personal baggage. There are so many quotes from the Capaldi era that I just keep repeating to myself every time I am struggling with my illness; the most common being "Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind," and "The Universe shows us its true face when it asks for help, we show ours by how we respond." And there are so many more great quotes from 12. I mean, the Zygon speech alone is one of the Doctor's greatest speeches.
I even see 12's regeneration into the ever so friendly 13th Doctor that as proof that if we keep working at bettering ourselves we can still become better versions of ourselves. Maybe I'm being a little overly dramatic with all of this, but I am someone who deals with emotional issues and antisocial tenancies, so characters like the Doctor (especially number 12) happen to mean a lot to me and I find their fictionally examples do help encourage me along my journey in becoming a better version of myself.
Great video, thank you for sharing your thoughts & experiences
I had the same experience with this show. I adore it.
All of my favourite media have shaped me as a person in some way. The show that made me who I am today is without a doubt My Hero Academia, that show shot me down a path that permanently changed the course of my life. It’s the show that inspired me to write my first book, and the show that inspired me to start working out, and the show that inspired me to be heroic, which has impacted how I impact others. There’s only three pieces of fiction that have impacted me so profoundly, TTLG, MP100 and BNHA. I’m thankful to them.
God you have such an amazing taste!
100% agree and cheers for all your evolution
Bro I most definitely relate to your emotional connection to this show bro. I think a show that also gave me the power of all that is me and my potential would most definitely have to be FLCL.. spiral on brother 👊🏽
My top 5 favorite anime have now been 1. Gurren Lagann, 2. Hokuto no Ken 1 and 2, 3. Slayers (Lina Inverse), 4. Dragon Quest: Adventures of Dai, 5. Kill la Kill or Dragon Ball Super or G Gundam.
Thank you for making this video, I started Gurren Lagan because of it and I just finished it 5 mins ago. It deeply profoundly hit me. I loved it thank you
I agree and respect with this video This has changed my life and cheers me and makes me feel things
Thank you for the words of encouragement :)
Easily my favourite show of all time, I love seeing that this show has a had a really positive impact on other people as well
This is pefection it makes you feel laugh pump you up, The vision of escaflowne reminds me of it with your will power you can do anything which i watched a few years ago
I laughed, I cried, I related! I LOVE Gurren Lagann. Thank you for making this video!
This is one of the greatest
Great video!
This show made me push hard for my schooling and is one of the animes that actually got me back to working out and still know!
I was literally just thinking about how Simon is my favorite protagonist of all time then this pops on my feed WTF
Hello, I hope you see this. I watched this video a little over a month ago. It peaked my interest in this show just to give it a try. I started watching it a few weeks after and it was ok and kind of slow at the beginning but I stuck with it. I finally decided to binge it from episode 5 to the end two days ago. I am so happy I did. This was a great anime. I love Kamina and his catch phrase. I found myself saying this to my wife. The episode when Simone finally got his confidence and beat the mole general was my favorite. I loved his development and how he gained the confidence in himself. It brought me to tears. I didn't like how some of his friends tried to play him in season 2. But thank you soooo much for recommending this. Believe in the me that believes in you now sticks with me.
This show took me YEARS to finish cause i was legit depressed after Kamina...just like the characters in the show i couldnt figure out how to move forward accepting the fact such a great man had fallen..this show has contiuned to help me learn how to grow thru loss of loved ones who suddenly pass away. Its still hard but this show really helped me to grow up like Simon, im still growing but i love this show..forever the greatest ive watched in anime. Thank you
I have a Gurren Lagamn poster up on my wall. It's the only piece of anime memorabilia I own despite how much I watch. I've had depression my entire life, and Gurren Lagann brought me out of depression for a time when I first saw it, and it has always had that effect on me, no matter how many times I watch it, no matter how deeply depressed I get. I'm taking meds now, and it's been helping a lot. But more than anything, this attitude of optimism - in spite of grueling realities - in spite of unbeatable odds - in spite of bouts of nihilism and existential dread - it prescribes me a sense of calm and control. There are no strings attached to it. No gods. No belief systems. No need for their to be anyone around. No need for me to even believe in myself on any level. Because I can tell myself, somebody would believe I can do it, so why the hell not?
The attitude of complete refusal to have my will broken by anything. It's a life-fuel that refills itself. I WILL make it happen. And if it doesn't happen- No. I will make it happen. Full stop. Even if the reality is that things don't always work out, even if I know the odds are stacked against me, if this is what I really want, I have to disregard those odds. I have to disregard the naysayers, be they myself or others, and do it anyway. Doubt is nothing but an imaginary wall in need of being broken through by a stubborn mind. That's what I took from the series.
Hmm... u forgot to mention the dope s-tier opening. Great vid I love this series
Gurren Lagann was the first TRUE anime i ever watched. i was 13 or 14. there was nothing like that experience. now i’m 19 and as i age and look back i can’t help but love it more. some people label it as dumb fun. but the more i dig into it the more humility and wisdom that i find.
i have so much nostalgia and emotion attached to the show. i am undoubtedly biased. it’s amazing how special this show is. i’ve never seen anything else like it.
Gurren Lagann is top three along with one piece and FMA brother hood! Loooved the video 👍🏽
Hunter X Hunter?
@@TechThusiast hunter x hunter is definitely one of the best
@@summero-my5in yep, easily. Shame about the constant hiatus
I have a similar top 3 + gintama
i first found gurren lagann on toonami in 2015 ( when I was 12 ) and i immediately got hooked onto it and let me just say until this day there is no show like it. it made me so emotional but one of the best lesson-learning and manliest show ever. gurren lagann is my favorite anime ever!!
Ultimately your favorite quote evolves throughout the series from believe in the me that believes in you to basicly believe yourself
An anime about going beyond your limit. The symbolism behind using a drill to pierce any obstacle. The inspiration and excitement you feel when they overcome those obstacles. These are just some of the things that make it my all-time favorite anime. I just love the feeling of "I can do anything" that it gives me. Praise the Spiral!
Its profound to me that Im not the only one who feels this way. I felt so ashamed that this anime could literally change my outlook on life. Nine years later, Im proud and extremely thankful for the message this left me: Believe in the you that believes in yourself.
Thank you for making this video NewWorld!
I love how the pictures are similar to what your saying.
