Gurren-Lagann ep. 24

[ Episode 24: Never Shall We Forget, This Minute and Second]
Always say goodbye to your loved ones when going into a battle!

An epic, high-energy episode. That’s exactly what this episode can be described as. Sadly though a few members of the supporting cast had to leave us but not without kicking even more Anti-Spiral ass than one can count. Zoushi, Ailac, Kidd, Makken, Jougan, and Barinbou all showcased a lot of awesomeness in their final moments and they have earned my respect without fail, especially Makken, Jougan and Barinbou. Makken’s death was probably more felt because they showed Reite responding at the very moment he died. One can only hope that she makes it home alive now to take care of their children. I don’t know if they plan on killing anyone else but from the next episode title it seems that might just happen. I was scared for Darry in this episode because at one point it looked as if she was done for but both she and Gimmy were saved by the twins.
I hope this high-energy is maintained throughout the last few episodes because it always manages to keep me on edge. As it is right now Simon and the Gurren-Dan are really disadvantaged and have to find some way to get out of the numerous traps the Anti-Spirals are laying down for them. I’m looking forward to seeing Chouginga Gurren Lagann in action in the next episode as I’m sure there will be total kickass action to behold.

I bet this is how the Anti-Spirals won the first time – after the Spirals lose so many of their crew, they start to feel it. Anti-Spirals have only remote controlled machines and the like to fight.
