Gurren Lagann
So about a month ago, a new series began on Ani-Mondays on the Scifi Channel called Gurren Lagann.
The series is based around a young kid named Simon, a wild tattooed, blue haired, ambitious knucklehead with a big mouth named Kamina, and their underground settlement known as Jihaa village. Kamina’s ambitions to get above their underground home to “the surface” and Simon’s discovery of a mecha with a “huge face” known as a gunman, spiral into the adventure above as the two “brothers” meet a racy, gun toting girl named Yoko and venture into battle against other gunman. Gaining a gunman himself he names Gurren, Kamina and Simon joined together Gurren and Lagann to become a two-faced powerful mecha suit called Gurren Lagann!! along the way they meet some interesting characters. The black siblings, Nia, Rossiu and two children who venture with him, as well as the villagers from Litner village just to name a few! As well as groups of villains including beastmen, who pilot the gunman, the hex and spiral king and their henchmen, and Viral!
Gurren Lagann’s voice cast is amazing with lead characters voiced by Kyle Hebert, Yuri Lowenthal, Steve Blum, Stephanie Sheh, Michelle Ruff, and Johnny Yong Bosch! don’t miss Gurren Lagann on Scifi Ani-Mondays at 10 and 10:30 pm central/ 11 pm eastern! and you can also purchase episodes of this series on iTunes and if you’re on xbox live, you can purchase them using microsoft points!
