it doesn't say anything

it says you prefer fun.
not to say eva isn't rad but gurren lagann sure is a hell of a ride.

>>135781505
Yeah but as far as other mechas go what's more like TTGL and less like NGE? Or is that a stupid question because NGE is so different from other mechas? I don't actually know because other than Code Geass I haven't seen any others.

I understood it and actually expected it to be more complicated than it really was. I did prefer the sexual underpinnings of Gurren Lagann, pic related.
>>
I dropped TTGL at the time skip
>>
It says you like action over psychology anime I guess.
>>
>>135781693
how does it not age well? I'd rather rewatch TTGL over any generic magical teenager haremshit that animation studios seem to milk nowadays
>>
>>135781972
Missed the hypest shit desu
It ended happy for you
>>
>>135781693
TTGL is more rewatchable than NGE in my experience. NGE seems more reliant on unraveling the story as you progress while TTGL is fast paced enough that it never feels like it's dragging along even though I know how it ends.

Go watch king of braves gaogaigar right now, takes a while to get into but it rivals ttgl in quality.

TTGL was made as an apology for Eva so it's not too off.

still waiting for that mass Gainax crossover
>>
>>135781469
As long as you don't dislike eva your taste is fine
I like TTGL more because its just cooler but I still know that eva is really good

I'd disagree but you can just watch the movies instead.

>>135782721
People keep saying this but I don't understand why.
/a/ shits on Gurren Lagann because it's stupid and popular but at the same time they complain about Kamina dying, the thing that was serious and brought some development.
I get that /a/ consists of idiots, like me, but what it the excuse behind this?
>>
>>135781469
put Simon in EVA01 and Kamina in EVA02, the resulting show would probably be better than NGE and TTGL combined.
>>
>>135785796
filtered :)
>>
>>135785727
Because all the other characters were boring, so killing the only none boring character made it shit
>>
>>135781469
It says your taste gears towards shows with more energy rather than good storytelling.
>>
>>135785950
But they both have shit story telling
>>
>>135785924
But Kamina was bland as fuck and Simon was way more interesting.
Hell even Rossiu was more interesting than Kamina.

Well developed, realistic characters with depth, poignant themes that intertwine subtly with the plot, follow the show don' tell rule, etc.

Heh, I like both, but I like the evas more, they have that organic feel you cant get anywhere else.

That mix of flesh and machine always gets me.
>>
>>135786460
This doesn't have anything to do with the argument, your attitude and typing is far out of what is asked for here in /a/. Also you don't fucking need a trip in an anonymous board you mongoloid. You make it too obvious that you're trying to shitpost.
>>
>>135786366
I wonder how many references I missed, I'll have to watch it again. I do remember a gunbuster pose and the harlock ship animation.
>>
TTGL was extremely entertaining but it is still barely even comparable to Eva imo

I think Ping Pong Club had one too. Hell, one of the guys was literally a wannabe Joe, iirc

A fair bit. Gainax/Trigger sure like their references to other anime from their youth (like other Gainax anime)
