**BE WARNED, THIS POST CONTAINS MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF NON-WOW NERDNESS**
Last night marked the infale of one of the best animes I have seen in recent memory, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.
Loosely translated, that is Heavenly Piercing Gurren Lagann.
This show is so full of awesome, it's almost too much for fragile human minds. It manages to pay homage to the giant mecha shows of the past (everything from Gundam to Evangelion) while telling a fast-paced, modern story. It's a show that does not take itself too seriously. However, that silliness makes the dramatic moments that much more striking. Not all of our heroes will make it to the end.
*Manly tears*
Great comedy, good story, insane action, heartbreaking drama, there is nothing this show does not have. I dare any anime fan to watch this show and come away disappointed. Pick up the new;y-released DVDs or be a punk and find it on the internet for free.
After last night's finale on Sci Fi's Ani-Monday, this show has definitely found a home in my Top Ten. And that's after watching it in ENGLISH. It's even more epic dubbed.
JUST WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?
