SIMON GURREN LAGANN SERIES

The Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann can transverse to other dimensions and universes, has the manufacturing capabilities to create hundreds of Arc-Gurren Lagann sized mecha in a small period of time, is capable of both deflecting and destroying objects on a planetary scale with ease, and is equipped with thousands of cannons that appear from the threads of the mecha's drills, each capable of shooting a beam straight through the time-space continuum, used for hitting targets regardless of their locality and temporality in the multiverse, being able to hit targets in the past, present and future. Later in the series, with the Arc-Gurren Lagann and Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann mecha, he has the ability to rip the fabric of space-time itself through sheer brute force, and sports an enormous array of missiles, beam weapons and shielding capabilities.

SIMON GURREN LAGANN SERIES

Simon is the only character who uses the Giga Drill Break and lives, any other character in the series performs the move in self-sacrifice or near death. Some of these applications include the Lagann Impact which can combine with other machines by piercing them with its drills, the Giga Drill Break which forms a huge amount of spiral energy into an enormous drill or number of drills much bigger than the mecha itself (an ability he also learnt from Kamina), a durable energy shield which can deflect energy blasts even at short range, the ability to wield the sunglasses on the Gurren's chest as a melee weapon, a regenerative function which can restore accumulated damage, and the power to rip open a worm hole in space to travel great distances. Later in the series, it shows him having powers on a multi-dimensional scale that can distort the spacetime continuum, while the epilogue shows Simon having metaphysical powers and compares him to a 'God', implying that he may have acquired omnipotence.Įarly in the series with the Lagann and Gurren Lagann mecha, he can use his drill in various ways, ranging from projectiles and missiles to shields, water screws and various melee applications. He can also create matter out of nothing (defying the law of mass-energy conservation), as he occasionally uses his spiral energy (created from his will alone) to create new and exponentially larger versions of his Gurren Lagann mecha later in the series, by which point he creates weapons larger than most galaxies (or in the second Gurren Lagann film, weapons that are almost the size of a universe). By the end of the second film, Simon's spiral power is implied to be infinite. One of his most important abilities for much of the series is that, when Simon is driven to give his best during combat, his spiral power increases exponentially in an instant, while increasing the power of his mecha and his allies at the same time, something that was initially inspired by Kamina. Learning that humans on the surface are regularly attacked by Lordgenome’s Gunmen, Kamina hijacks a Gunman and calls it Lagann combining it with Gurren to create the Gurren Lagann mecha which then inspires others to join Team Gurren which is then expanded as Team Dai-Gurren and sets out to take down Lordgenome for good.Powers and AbilitiesSee also: List of Gurren Lagann mechaīy the end of the series, Simon becomes the most powerful Spiral warrior in the Gurren Lagann multiverse. The Gunman is followed by a mysterious girl, Yoko, who attacks it before Simon activates the smaller Gunman, nicknamed Lagann, to take the invading mecha down. Shortly after Simon unearths the Core Drill and small face-shaped “Gunman” mecha, a huge Gunman crashes through from above and begins attacking the villagers. One day meek digger Simon meets delinquent Kamina who asks him to join his gang, Team Gurren, which is working towards finally reaching the surface. Mankind now lives underground with some villagers conscripted as “diggers” to expand their territory downwards. An original mecha anime series created by Gainax and co-produced by Aniplex and Konami, Gurren Lagann is set in the future when Earth is ruled by the Spiral King, Lordgenome.
