I USUALLY DON'T RECCOMEND AN*ME ON THIS FORUM BECAUSE I KNOW Y'ALL DON'T LIKE IT BUT GOD DAMN THIS SHOW IS GREAT
I'M HALF WAY THROUGH IT AND IT IS AN EPIC MASTERPIECE OF EPIC MASTERY
Hopefully it won't go to hell now that the main antagonist is dead, like Death Note did. I hear this is the part of the show where they start destroying entire galaxies and crusing space-time to kill the bad guys, so I can only assume it will get a million times more awesome from here.
It is on youtube, do yourself a favor.

Also, it's about killing furries. With drills. I'm sure you guys are into that.

The show is awesome. The english dub is actually coming to the Sci-Fi channel July 28th, so those who hate reading their television shows can get their drill on then.
The second half of the show (the time skip) starts off kinda meh. Shit goes to hell until episode 21 or so, then it starts to get totally and utterly outrageous. Like, they throw spiral galaxies like frisbees and shit. Ending could be better, but overall it's really epic and the animation starts to kick it into high gear at the end (40% of the budget went into the last few episodes).
If you're into whacked out action, manly monologues, and shit that doesn't need to make sense, you'll dig it. Last anime series that's been worth watching.

I hear Tengen's version of Tetris was better than the Nintendo one.

At the end of the series, she wears the most pointless space outfit ever, and Kittan makes this face that looks like Beaker from the muppets.
Easily the most useless character in the entire fucking show next to Nia. Thankfully Yoko tries to shoot Nia in the head on two separate occasions. If only the bitch had better aim...
The real reason to watch it for Kamina and Kittan, not anime sluts.

but I like Yoko :(

Yoko is a walking pair of tits. Kittan does the impossible, does the unthinkable, rows, rows, and fights da powah. And Kamina is just manly. You do not watch TTGL for the tits. You watch it for the testosterone-fueled combat and dialog.
Which reminds me, the soundtrack to this show is awesome. I've got the OST and singles for the Opening and Ending themes. Libra Me From Hell is epic.
Also worth noting; the DS game isn't terrible. Probably only a C at best, but it follows the entire show, and supposedly the last level is beaten by yelling into the mic, which is the only reason I'm playing through the 'meh' battles. All 400+ battles.

Deepest character ever.
Also, Viral is pretty rad. He was a walking Fail Magnet until he stopped being a cunt and joined the Dai-Gurren Brigade. Fuck Yea, Viral!

Ignoring all the retarded anime shit and Guitar Woman fawning over a drawing to say that Toobin' is the best Tube similation since Virtual Bart.

"underated classic, the NES had so many..."
"it's a shame Tengen didn't make the 2 player mode like the arcade version. "
"thats some good toobin'. i really want to see the hell stage though. "

Dub is on Sci Fi channel right now.
I'm not one of "those people" but Kamina's voice sounds dumb :( The rest seems alright, though.

I was going to mention this, yeah.

The guy who played older Gohan in DBZ is doing Kamina's voice, which is ridiculous.
