Gurren Lagann the Movie: The Lights in the Sky Are Stars
This is what Gurren Lagann is all about, this is one of the most incredible movies I have ever had the pleasure of watching, it takes all the setup from the first movie and pays off better than should be realistically possible, one of the most beautiful endings and I am incredibly grateful this was made

Gurren Lagann the Movie: The Lights in the Sky Are Stars
Gurren lagann is actually so peak, I love this show so much. It's like the most hell yeah show but I love it so much. Also super tengen toppa gurren lagann? That's goated. That mech is basically the only reason I watched this film and I'm proud, because I'd seen everything else because it was in the show, but my magnificent tengen toppa only appeared in this and I don't care if it was only in it for like half a minute, it was still spectacular

Gurren Lagann the Movie: The Lights in the Sky Are Stars
The second film brought it all together for an epic conclusion. Big space jam of intergalactic spaceships, moon mechs, explosions, combo movies and more explosions! Story was a little chaotic and didn’t care for the digital animation aspects of space. Still great fun though!

Had blast catching the Gurren Lagann double header with some of the crew at Hollywood as part of Animayhem PDX’s Mecha Panic series.
