The deaths of Nia and Senketsu perfectly fit into the themes of TTGL and KLK, and made sense to let their love interestes develop. But they both happened in shows made by Imaishi, so Imaishi killing off love interests became a meme.

So Nova "dying" in SPL was a reference to that meme, since SPL in its entirety was a clusterfuck of references to Gainax, Trigger, Imaishi, and their respective memes.

Imaishi shows are an amalgamation of ideas from other (and better) series (usually mech) that he liked, and he combines them in a very sloppy way that his stupid fans think is clever. He tries to reference and pay homage to things he likes by mimicking ideas, even going so far as to pay homage to himself. Yes, his shows are literal memes per the actual fucking definition of the word.

>>143268387
But Nia's death was entirely thematic, and was necessary to make the ending compatible with the message of TTGL. The Anti-Spiral restricted the spiral races because it was afraid of the destruction they could cause if free. But Simon defeated it because he thought people being free was far better than people living in oppression no matter what, and had faith that society would be able to deal with the consequences of that freedom. Nia's death was his personal consequence for his freedom, and him taking it in stride and simply moving on was him leading by example and displaying his great faith in society.

Technically speaking, it was an ending by gainax.

It was one of the best endings they've ever done, though. Pleiades had no business being as incredible as it was.
>>
>>143269452
>Nia's death was his personal consequence for his freedom,
Nia's death had nothing to do with any of the themes, and didn't make sense within the show. "Oh shit, we need to give Simon a sad ending to show that he made a hard choice" doesn't mean that his waifu turning into space particles fits into the themes.

And let's not forget that the fanbase can't even agree on the themes, seeing as half of them still think the central message is "do the impossible".

It's more of an easter egg/shout out than a big reveal or anything but yeah. The FLCL manga artist, Hajime Ueda was the one who came up with the idea for the short.

Luluco is the most personal show of Trigger, I think there is a whole message in it.

Before the anime came out, Trigger's headquarters said that they wanted the studio to be more "normal", to produce more anime you can find in other companies. This resulted in the creation of Kiznaiver.

In the whole anime, Luluco is trying hard to be normal, to have a normal life because she thinks this is the right thing to do to be happy, but later on in the last season, she discovers that she can be happy by creating her own normality, live the way she wants. Luluco's life is not normal, she likes it and everyone likes it. The last episode reveals that she is the studio Trigger itself, the message is clear. They wanted to show to the world that creating original anime that goes beyond the normal way to make anime is what they like and that's what they want to make.

I think that they wanted Luluco to be a longer series, perhaps not even a short but Trigger's headquarters gave all the budget to the more "normal" show Kiznaiver, the message may come from here. In the end, Kiznaiver is a flop and I'm not sure but I think Luluco was a success in Japan. Good thing.

Nova had literally the same ending as Kaworu did in 3.33.

They've got the same kind of low powerlevel appeal that shit like SAO and SnK have. It's never talked about in mech discussions, and you'll hardly see figs of his mechs if you look around Akiba or Nakano. Hell, most TTGL merch is just stuff that shows off Yoko's tits.

I just realized something.
Nova stopping the Blackholian from escaping from the black hole is almost exactly the same as what happened in the ending of the F-Zero anime.

Is this a common thing I've missed, or just a fun coincidence?

I literally just explained why Nia's death is thematic. But instead of refuting that by explaining how it doesn't link into a theme, you just said "no its not".

And why can't "freedom is worth its consequences" and "people should strive to do the impossible" both be equally present messages? There's no weird rule that states that a show can only have one message. In fact, plenty of shows have multiple. And they're both pretty linked if you think about it. People doing feats which were thought impossible is a very reccuring thing in the history of people fighting for freedom. The American forces winning against the much larger and better equipped British forces in the War of Independance, Gandhi overthrowing British rule in India without having lifted a finger in violence, Nelson Mandela becoming the president of South Africa, etc etc.

>I literally just explained why Nia's death is thematic
No you didn't, you grasped at a bunch of half baked ideas in the show and said "The theme is showing how willing he is to sacrifice things to advance humanity!" which is bullshit. From the ground up, her death is stupid. She's biologically spiral and somehow still has anti-spiral genes, she dies when they die because of hivemind, despite her not being part of the hivemeind (she acts and thinks on her own), she dies to show Simon isn't selfish and can move on, but he was never selfish in the first place, the concept they pulled out of their ass to justify it was that anti-spirals feared humanity's advancement and eventual fate and that Simon needed to not abuse spiral power (the device being "you can revive people, and your wife dies, but that abuses the power") and yet the human race continues to advance at an unnatural rate even after Nia dies by using spiral energy, and this somehow isn't an issue. The entire thing was garbage because Imaishi thinks "muh bittersweet" makes the ending more mature, but he has no idea how to frame it.

>And why can't "freedom is worth its consequences" and "people should strive to do the impossible"
Because rolling over and accepting your wife dying because of plot cancer is diametrically opposed to doing the impossible. You literally can't have both. "Doing the impossible" would be keeping her AND not fearing the anti-spiral.

>There's no weird rule that states that a show can only have one message.
There is when they're in conflict.

Nova got probably the best deal out of the other Gainax ending, though.

She is almost entirely spiral, and can act completely independent of the anti-spirals, and can use spiral power. These are facts.

This, Simon was always a humble, introverted guy. A man and his pigmole, traveling the world and helping those in need, even for things as simple as cracking open a coconut.

I like to think he occasionally visits Yoko so they can catch up, too. They understand each other's loss best.

Not that anon.

I don't know about you, or how true is the Okada meme is, I don't even watch Kiznaiver, nor any other of her works as far as I know, but one thing I'm going to say inb4 you start sucking his dick: Imaishi is not a good writer, his forte is animation. And this has been the general consensus for years, even before Trigger's foundation.

He's good at building hype, his Kaneda style is pretty cool and fun, if you want crack and lolrandom stories, he's your guy, but he's the kind of animator/director that'a better suited for shorts if he takes the helm. For longer series, he needs to team with someone else.

Or are you going to forget how much Nakashima's KLK story was fucked over flashiness and "FUN"?. And I'm saying this as someone who thought KLK was alright and enjoyed it.

Take another example with this. Luluco was cute and fun, but by all purposes it doesn't stop being just a big Trigger ad with just a simple premise.
