▶ ▷ TTGL - Why is it awesome?

Tengen Toppa Gurrenn Lagann is just a classic anime; it deserves its own post. I am an anime junkie and out of all the anime I have watched, TTGL tops the list as the best anime ever (although Naruto is still my fave). I was not originally drawn to it because it's a mecha (robot stuff) anime, lol. I thought it was only gonna be action, robots, explosions, and more robots. See, I was never a Voltes V or Gundam fan. BUT to my surprise, this anime was deep and had inspirational themes about humanity and friendship. Everything about this anime is just perfect and if you like anime and have not even watched a single episode of TTGL, you're missing out!!

I'll dedicate this post to keep my favorite quotes from TTGL. I will surely look back to them in the future.



Whether it's laughable or irrational [ 無茶で無謀と笑われようと、]
This is the path that ALL great men walk! [ 維持が支えの喧嘩道!]
If there's a wall in our way, we'll destroy it! [ 壁があったら殴って壊す!]
If there's no road, we'll pave it with our own hands! [ 道がなければ、この手で作る!]
The magma in our hearts is blazing like flames! [ 心のマグマが炎と燃える!]
The perfect fusion: GURREN-LAGANN! [ 超絶合体!グレンラガン!]
Who... [ 俺を… ]
...all of you... [ 俺たちを… ]
The hell do you think we are!?! [ 誰だと思ってやがる!!!] - Simon and Kamina

"Mark my words! This drill will open a hole in the universe! And that hole will be a path for those behind us! The dreams of those who've fallen! The hopes of those who'll follow! Those two sets of dreams weave together in a double helix! Drilling a path towards tomorrow! And that's Tengen Toppa! That's Gurren Lagann!! My drill is the drill that creates the heavens!"- Simon

"Surpass the impossible and kick reason to the curb! That's the Dai-Gurren Brigade way!"

"Believe in me who believes in you." - Kamina

"Don't believe in the me who believes in you. Don't believe in the you who believes in me. Believe in the you - who believes in himself!"

Haha.. As I walk to the NCLEX testing center, this will be the song playing on my iPod lol

You know when you have a big test coming up and you try every way to avoid it? Like you start doing things you never planned to do that day like cleaning your room, doing laundry or walking the dog. Well, I have been doing the same thing ever since I graduated. My licensure exam is coming up and I haven't been studying seriously. (I wonder if I will pass it -_-) I have been indulging myself in what I like to do most - NOTHING! Or in other words, watching bunch of anime and reading tons of manga.

Ongoing anime:
Deadman Wonderland
Ao no Exorcist
Fairy Tail
Hidan no Aria

Ongoing manga:
D. Gray Man
Soul Eater
Naruto Shippuden
Bleach
Kateikyoushi Hitman Reborn
Fairy Tail

Hmm.. kinda wish I was back in college pursuing a different major. I technically should only be finishing freshman year at my age. I really do not want to take this exam -_-
