I was a bit worried going into Part 3 of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. The beginning of this final chapter appeared much more mature, somber, and at times downright depressing. But luckily that was just a momentary departure from the series' signature high-blown mega-scale fist-pumping F**K YEAH crazy overdrive insanity. Like its predecessors, Part 3 delivers the goods with plenty of comic relief, and heaping helpings of some of the most ludicrously explosive giant robot battles you'll ever see, and then somehow manages to magnify their scope by literally hundreds of times (Simon takes the helm of a mecha so massive, it uses galaxies as stepping stones).

Gurren Lagann shatters the borders of rationality, blithely discarding any notion of limitation or restraint. It spins up, rips loose and rampages nonstop through every episode. Just sit back and let this chaotic spectacle of imagination unfold before your eyes. You won't regret it!

Gurren Lagann is one of the best anime titles out there. It's art style is what sets it apart from all the rest. This crazy hand drawn style (though I'm not entirely sure if it is hand drawn) may turn off some, but I personally dig it. I knew what to expect after buying Dead Leaves. This is a bit more tame (story wise) compared to Dead Leaves, but still off the chain none the less. The story line is great. There is a little over the top acting at times but that is kinda like the soul of this series. The whole freaking crew is over the top! And I love that about it!
This is the final two volumes packaged as Part 3. It was worth every dollar spent, and I highly recommend it!

Gurren Lagann is one of my favcorite animes of all time. It's basically a parody of Gundam or similar mech based anime with that Gainax off the wall twist.
