1. Gurren Lagann
Copy !req
2. This is the tale of a man who continues
to fight against fate.
Copy !req
3. This man lived a life of desire,
loyalty, and extravagance,
Copy !req
4. he loved his companions,
and he strove for freedom.
Copy !req
5. And then, abruptly, he died.
Copy !req
6. But even so, Simon lives on.
Copy !req
7. He must go on living.
Copy !req
8. TEPPELIN, ROYAL CAPITAL
Copy !req
9. - Thymilph has died, has he?
Copy !req
10. Yes, Majesty. Reports also say
that Dai-Gunzan was stolen.
Copy !req
11. CYTOMANDER, THE SWIFT
- One of the Four Generals, killed...
He must have gotten careless.
Copy !req
12. GUAME, THE IMMOVABLE
- Let us not forget the saying
that even an armadillo...
Copy !req
13. GUAME, THE IMMOVABLE
will turn and fight when cornered.
Copy !req
14. GUAME, THE IMMOVABLE
In other words, one must never
underestimate one's opponent.
Copy !req
15. ADIANE, THE ELEGANT
- What nonsense.
Copy !req
16. ADIANE, THE ELEGANT
If a lowly armadillo did turn and fight,
all one need do is crush it.
Copy !req
17. You don't understand the finer
subtleties of this world, I see.
Copy !req
18. You forget that we are in the
presence of the Spiral King.
Copy !req
19. Spiral King.
Copy !req
20. I ask that the honor of retaking Dai-Gunzan
be given to me, Cytomander, the Swift.
Copy !req
21. No, that mission
must surely go to me.
Copy !req
22. Thymilph was a dear friend to me.
Copy !req
23. Grant me the opportunity to
avenge his death, Spiral King.
Copy !req
24. A dear friend, eh?
Copy !req
25. Indeed. There is such a thing as
friendship that knows no gender.
Copy !req
26. In other words, he was useful
to your ends.
Copy !req
27. Hold your tongue, anteater.
Copy !req
28. I created you,
yet you suggest...
Copy !req
29. that you know a friendship
that I am unaware of?
Copy !req
30. As you wish.
Go, Adiane.
Copy !req
31. Thank you, Sire.
Copy !req
32. Adiane, the Elegant, shall give
these humans a lesson...
Copy !req
33. in the power and terror
of the Spiral King.
Copy !req
34. You do not approve, Cytomander?
Copy !req
35. Spiral King, you are the immortal
creator of this world,
Copy !req
36. and the monarch who rules
over all within it.
Copy !req
37. I haven't the slightest intention
of defying your decisions.
Copy !req
38. In that case, leave me.
Copy !req
39. Yes, Sire.
Copy !req
40. Sire.
Copy !req
41. They seek out the light, even
though only death awaits them.
Copy !req
42. It is enough to
make me despair...
Copy !req
43. at the nature of these
creatures called humans.
Copy !req
44. Okay, let's end this!
Copy !req
45. - Back off.
- What?
Copy !req
46. I'll do it.
Copy !req
47. Episode 9:
What, Exactly, Is A Human?
Copy !req
48. Boy, it's really pouring...
Copy !req
49. It's been seven days now.
Copy !req
50. I still can't believe it.
Copy !req
51. Yeah...
Copy !req
52. What's wrong?
Copy !req
53. There's not enough engine output.
It refuses to stabilize.
Copy !req
54. That hurt!
Copy !req
55. Are you all right?
Copy !req
56. I'm fine, I'm fine.
That was a good hit, Rossiu.
Copy !req
57. I'm really sorry! I can't seem to get
the hang of power distribution.
Copy !req
58. That was impressive, Rossiu!
Copy !req
59. Dayakka? Leeron?
Copy !req
60. Are you going to the
engine room again?
Copy !req
61. Dai-Gurren here is a
temperamental fellow.
Copy !req
62. Dai-Gurren, huh?
Copy !req
63. Yoko insisted that we
give it that name.
Copy !req
64. I see.
Copy !req
65. It has a repair factory, and its living
quarters are fully equipped.
Copy !req
66. Now, if only we could get the
main engine stabilized...
Copy !req
67. Even Gurren is as good as new
after that pounding it took.
Copy !req
68. It's one hell of a facility,
that's for sure.
Copy !req
69. Simon, get your act together!
Copy !req
70. The only thing it can't mend
is a broken human heart.
Copy !req
71. You're not the only one aboard, you know!
Gurren Lagann is all about teamwork!
Copy !req
72. Nobody asked you to pilot it.
Copy !req
73. Say what? So, you're saying that you
can pilot it all by yourself?
Copy !req
74. I'll do it by myself.
Copy !req
75. That's a good idea.
Actually, that's for the best.
Copy !req
76. Don't get too full
of yourself, kid!
Copy !req
77. If you'd have held it together,
Kamina wouldn't be dead now!
Copy !req
78. Big brother!
Copy !req
79. I'm sorry, Simon.
Copy !req
80. It's okay.
What Kittan said is true.
Copy !req
81. I killed Kamina.
Copy !req
82. So I'll get tougher.
I HAVE to get tough.
Copy !req
83. I'll fight hard enough
for both me AND Kamina.
Copy !req
84. Rossiu, why didn't that god of yours
save Kamina?
Copy !req
85. That's right, I forgot. The god
you pray to is a Gunmen.
Copy !req
86. No wonder he died. After all,
it was a god that killed him!
Copy !req
87. Simon.
Copy !req
88. I'm sorry.
That was uncalled for.
Copy !req
89. Sorry, Boota.
I'm exhausted.
Copy !req
90. Bro...
Copy !req
91. It's gotta be Kittan or nobody.
Copy !req
92. Yeah, he's the one who called us
all together in the first place.
Copy !req
93. Simon's just too unreliable.
He's too damn mopey.
Copy !req
94. Just because he can pilot Lagann
doesn't mean he should be leader.
Copy !req
95. If an obnoxious kid like him is made
leader, Team Gurren is history.
Copy !req
96. DAI-Gurren.
Copy !req
97. It's not Team Gurren.
It's Team DAI-Gurren now!
Copy !req
98. Don't eat yourself sick.
Copy !req
99. I need to keep up my energy. I can't
even use a rifle properly, remember?
Copy !req
100. The Four Generals, the Spiral King,
we've still got lots of enemies out there.
Copy !req
101. The war goes on.
Copy !req
102. Yeah, you have a point.
Copy !req
103. So does this rain...
Copy !req
104. Even with the rain, I can have a hot meal
right after target practice now.
Copy !req
105. Seven days ago, I never
would have imagined it.
Copy !req
106. And it's all thanks to him.
Copy !req
107. Look, about Simon...
Copy !req
108. He seems like he's
getting worn down.
Copy !req
109. Oh.
Copy !req
110. Aren't you worried
about him?
Copy !req
111. Keda. Kaia.
Mycee. Nashika.
Copy !req
112. We sure lost a lot of people
defending Littner, didn't we?
Copy !req
113. Yeah.
Copy !req
114. Sacrifices are necessary
for survival.
Copy !req
115. And we survivors work even harder
to make sure they weren't in vain.
Copy !req
116. I've always accepted that
as part of what we do.
Copy !req
117. But this time,
I don't think I can.
Copy !req
118. I'm sorry, it's all I can do
to keep myself together.
Copy !req
119. You said you'd repay that kiss
ten times over.
Copy !req
120. What's the big idea, leaving a hole
in my heart that's ten times bigger?
Copy !req
121. Kamina, you jerk...
Copy !req
122. Gunmen detected! They're closing in
from off the starboard bow!
Copy !req
123. I despise persistent types...
Copy !req
124. Leeron!
Copy !req
125. I'll combine Lagann with Gurren and
head out. I'll be fine on my own.
Copy !req
126. I'll pilot Gurren.
Copy !req
127. Rossiu?
Copy !req
128. I mean, you can't do it by yourself, right?
Go on, combine.
Copy !req
129. Yeah, all right...
Copy !req
130. Simon!
This is overkill!
Copy !req
131. He who strikes first wins!
It's what Kamina would have done!
Copy !req
132. Power output is unstable!
Copy !req
133. Bastard! Bastard! Bastard!
Bastard! Bastard! Bast—
Copy !req
134. Keep it together!
Kamina never screamed, not once!
Copy !req
135. Simon, you have to calm down!
Copy !req
136. If you keep fighting like this,
YOU will die this time!
Copy !req
137. Kamina wouldn't run away!
Copy !req
138. Not Kamina! Not ever!
Copy !req
139. What's wrong, Simon?
Copy !req
140. The energy is feeding back?
Copy !req
141. T-The drill!
Copy !req
142. Come back here, damn you!
Copy !req
143. Rossiu!
Are you all right?
Copy !req
144. What happened, Rossiu?
Copy !req
145. Lagann suddenly separated,
and then it—
Copy !req
146. It fell down this?
Copy !req
147. He abandoned you and ran
in the face of the enemy?
Copy !req
148. It seemed like Lagann
had gone berserk.
Copy !req
149. Gone berserk?
Seriously?
Copy !req
150. I think.
Copy !req
151. Simon...
Copy !req
152. Gurren Lagann
Copy !req
153. Gurren Lagann
Copy !req
154. Why did the controls
stop responding?
Copy !req
155. It started!
Copy !req
156. Hail fellow well met!
Copy !req
157. H-Hail fellow...?
Copy !req
158. Who are you, good sir?
Copy !req
159. Good sir? Um, I'm nobody important
enough to be called that.
Copy !req
160. Oh! This is the outside,
isn't it?
Copy !req
161. This is rain!
Copy !req
162. It is cold.
What is this?
Copy !req
163. Um, that's dirt.
Are you okay without any shoes?
Copy !req
164. It's cold and wet and squishy...
It feels wonderful!
Copy !req
165. Really? It does?
Copy !req
166. Why are you the same as I am?
Copy !req
167. You have no tail,
nor fangs or scales.
Copy !req
168. Your skin is soft, as well.
Copy !req
169. Well, that's only natural.
I'm a human being.
Copy !req
170. Human being?
Copy !req
171. Right. A human being.
A human. A person.
Copy !req
172. And what, exactly,
is a human?
Copy !req
173. Huh? Well, a human is...
Well, like you and me.
Copy !req
174. We look like this, we have
a head, stuff like that.
Copy !req
175. There are others like us?
Copy !req
176. Sure. There are more.
Copy !req
177. Really? And all of them
are the same as you?
Copy !req
178. They have the same face?
Copy !req
179. No, we're not all identical. It would be
creepy if everyone had the same face.
Copy !req
180. It would?
Copy !req
181. Oh, the rain has stopped!
Copy !req
182. Hey, you're right.
Copy !req
183. I wonder why I am outside?
Copy !req
184. Um, I don't really know.
Copy !req
185. First things first, though,
we need to get out of here.
Copy !req
186. Here.
Copy !req
187. You can't walk like that.
Here, put these on.
Copy !req
188. All right.
Copy !req
189. My name is Nia.
What is yours?
Copy !req
190. Who, me?
I'm Simon.
Copy !req
191. Simon...
What a fine name.
Copy !req
192. Thanks.
Copy !req
193. Tell me, Simon.
Copy !req
194. What?
Copy !req
195. What is that?
Copy !req
196. Hurry! This way!
Copy !req
197. Simon, what is that?
Copy !req
198. It's a Gunmen! Humans on the surface
are at war against them!
Copy !req
199. At war?
Copy !req
200. If we don't fight them,
they'll kill us!
Copy !req
201. Please, Lagann!
Copy !req
202. It worked!
Copy !req
203. Simon, are you all right?
Copy !req
204. Damn it, not again!
Copy !req
205. Why? Why won't you do
as I tell you, Lagann?
Copy !req
206. Run, Nia!
Copy !req
207. Once you start, keep running
and don't look back.
Copy !req
208. I'll keep the Gunmen
busy here.
Copy !req
209. But you—
Copy !req
210. I'm sick of it! I'm sick
of watching people die!
Copy !req
211. I don't care what happens to me,
just so long as no one else dies!
Copy !req
212. Do you really want to die?
Copy !req
213. If you are frightened, you should run.
You mustn't die.
Copy !req
214. No, I'm not scared.
Copy !req
215. You mustn't lie, either.
Copy !req
216. Come, let's escape.
Together.
Copy !req
217. I'm not gonna let anyone else die!
Copy !req
218. I'm here, too!
Copy !req
219. Kittan Stinger!
Copy !req
220. Hell's Headsplitter!
Copy !req
221. I finally got a chance to use it!
Copy !req
222. First he deserts, and now he's
got a woman on his arm?
Copy !req
223. Some are slender,
some are fat,
Copy !req
224. some are rounded,
and some are angular.
Copy !req
225. Human beings certainly come in all
shapes and sizes, don't they?
Copy !req
226. So you've never seen another
human being before, have you?
Copy !req
227. No. Only my honorable father.
Copy !req
228. Honorable father, she says...
Copy !req
229. Thank you.
Copy !req
230. What's Old Coco doing here?
Copy !req
231. It's delicious!
Copy !req
232. So when you woke up, you'd been
locked in that container...
Copy !req
233. and thrown into that gorge
for some reason?
Copy !req
234. Yes.
Copy !req
235. Do you remember any details
about where your village is?
Copy !req
236. Village?
Copy !req
237. Where your house is.
Copy !req
238. I have no idea.
I've never been outside before.
Copy !req
239. Father always said that
the outside world was dangerous.
Copy !req
240. Well, he was right about that.
I bet your father is worried about you.
Copy !req
241. I'm not so sure.
Copy !req
242. Well, I believe I may
have angered him.
Copy !req
243. Why's that?
Copy !req
244. I asked him a question.
Why was I born? I asked.
Copy !req
245. As soon as I said it,
Father closed his heart to me.
Copy !req
246. I don't get it.
Copy !req
247. Your father sounds like
an odd man.
Copy !req
248. Lagann... Are you going
to abandon me, too?
Copy !req
249. What the hell do you
want me to do, damn it?
Copy !req
250. Can't I even avenge
Kamina's death?
Copy !req
251. Yoko.
Copy !req
252. Don't do it. Nothing you say
can help him right now.
Copy !req
253. You'll only make the hole
in his heart bigger.
Copy !req
254. What happened?
Copy !req
255. What's going on?
Copy !req
256. Where's this water coming from?
Copy !req
257. Wait a minute, something's coming!
Copy !req
258. What is it?
Copy !req
259. It's huge...
Copy !req
260. Simon! Where's Simon?
Where's Gurren Lagann?
Copy !req
261. There's no escape, human scum.
Copy !req
262. I know that voice...
Copy !req
263. Fire main cannon!
Copy !req
264. They're still being calibrated!
Copy !req
265. Rossiu!
Copy !req
266. I know!
I'll go out in Gurren!
Copy !req
267. Nia?
Copy !req
268. Wha—? That idiot, is she trying
to get herself killed?
Copy !req
269. Stop this, Adiane!
Copy !req
270. What?
Copy !req
271. Wait, is that—?
Copy !req
272. First Princess Nia, daughter of
Spiral King Lordgenome, orders you!
Copy !req
273. Leave us, Adiane, the Elegant!
Copy !req
274. Are you aware of who I am?
Copy !req
275. To Be Continued...
Copy !req
276. Next Time
Copy !req
277. Precious memories...
Do they tie people down?
Copy !req
278. Or are they what saves them?
Copy !req
279. Next time on Gurren Lagann,
Copy !req
280. Who Is This Bro?
Copy !req
