1. Gurren LagannCopy !req
2. So, I hear that Adiane blew it.Copy !req
3. She went over our heads and boasted
in front of the Spiral King.Copy !req
4. She will not come
crawling back now.Copy !req
5. That said, would you do me the honor
of letting me strike next, Sire?Copy !req
6. Wha—?Copy !req
7. Guame? You, too?Copy !req
8. This miniature Gunmen of unknown type
that they use, it concerns me.Copy !req
9. And by combining with
this miniature Gunmen,Copy !req
10. they also say that Gurren Lagann
exhibits power it should not possess.Copy !req
11. You have a good idea
what it is, I take it.Copy !req
12. The humans have uncovered something
they should not have.Copy !req
13. That is all it amounts to.Copy !req
14. Whatever it is, it can't be
brushed off so lightly.Copy !req
15. Please, Sire. Indulge me.Copy !req
16. Guame, you dare tell me
what to do?Copy !req
17. I was amazed back there.Copy !req
18. There are few in this world who can
make the Spiral King do anything.Copy !req
19. In that one regard, I bow
to your superiority.Copy !req
20. It is because that miniature Gunmen
may very well be an incredible find.Copy !req
21. And besides, he and I
go way back.Copy !req
22. You're going up against a bunch
of battle-hardened barbarians.Copy !req
23. There's no telling what
they'll come up with.Copy !req
24. Needless to say,
I have a plan.Copy !req
25. As I thought.
You think of everything.Copy !req
26. Episode 11:
Simon, Hands-OffCopy !req
27. Everyone!Copy !req
28. Yeah?Copy !req
29. What's this?Copy !req
30. That? It's garbage, obviously.
It's a trash heap.Copy !req
31. But this is Simon's!
It's too much!Copy !req
32. Come on, he's a lost cause.Copy !req
33. He's turned into a spineless kid
who's good for nothing but digging.Copy !req
34. He'd be better off going back
to Giha Village.Copy !req
35. But he's—Copy !req
36. There's no place here for somebody
who can't pull his own weight.Copy !req
37. Don't coddle Simon
too much, all right?Copy !req
38. Coddle him?Copy !req
39. He needs to snap himself out of this funk,
or it doesn't mean anything.Copy !req
40. Oh, this must be that Bro person
you keep talking about.Copy !req
41. I'm crazy, aren't I?Copy !req
42. No, you aren't crazy.Copy !req
43. When he's set in stone like this,
even I can see it.Copy !req
44. I can see how much
you care for this person.Copy !req
45. Digging tunnels is all I'm good for.Copy !req
46. Back in our village, everybody said
I was creepy, or I smelled bad.Copy !req
47. My Bro was the only one who hung out
with me and didn't make fun of me.Copy !req
48. He was tough,
and kind, and big.Copy !req
49. I wanted to become the kind
of man that Kamina was.Copy !req
50. I tried, but it was no use.Copy !req
51. I can never be like Kamina.Copy !req
52. These are really good!Copy !req
53. R-Really?Copy !req
54. Can I stay and watch
for a while longer?Copy !req
55. Sure...Copy !req
56. Please help us!Copy !req
57. Our village is under attack
by Gunmen!Copy !req
58. Someone!
Someone, please help us!Copy !req
59. The Gunmen are almost
upon us! Aieeee!Copy !req
60. This is terrible!
Let's go help them at once!Copy !req
61. I guess I can pinpoint
their location, but...Copy !req
62. But this is awfully fishy.Copy !req
63. It stinks? It smells?Copy !req
64. For one thing, the enemy is sure to have
picked up that transmission, too.Copy !req
65. And would people living underground
have equipment like that?Copy !req
66. Shut up, shut up!
Don't worry about the details!Copy !req
67. Do you want those babes' village to get
wiped out while we're standing around?Copy !req
68. He'd set out without a moment's hesitation!
That's what Kamina would do if he was here!Copy !req
69. That's right.
He wouldn't hesitate.Copy !req
70. That's for sure.Copy !req
71. Right!Copy !req
72. Dai-Gurren, move out!Copy !req
73. That's the village entrance, huh?Copy !req
74. Five Gunmen, huh? And we can't
use our main guns, either...Copy !req
75. Fire!Copy !req
76. There's a village under there!
Don't open fire, dumb-ass!Copy !req
77. Sorry, I couldn't help myself.Copy !req
78. The enemy Gunmen are fleeing.Copy !req
79. Sweet!
Just as I planned!Copy !req
80. All right, let's go see if
the village is safe!Copy !req
81. It's nothing but young, hot babes!Copy !req
82. What a dreadful village...Copy !req
83. Thank you! Because of you,
our village has been saved!Copy !req
84. There's no need to thank us. After all,
the Spiral King is everyone's enemy.Copy !req
85. S-Still, from what we've seen, there
doesn't seem to be a single man here.Copy !req
86. How, exactly, did that happen?Copy !req
87. Well, about that...Copy !req
88. Stay right where you are, humans!Copy !req
89. I can't believe it! This was
a Beastman trap?Copy !req
90. I said it was fishy...Copy !req
91. You bastard!Copy !req
92. What were you thinking,
you moron?Copy !req
93. Dai-Gunzan has been secured.Copy !req
94. We will now begin searching for Nia
and the miniature Gunmen.Copy !req
95. Very well. Put your backs
into it.Copy !req
96. Yes, sir.Copy !req
97. Beastmen are their enemy, so they
assume all humans will be their allies.Copy !req
98. What a bunch of fools...Copy !req
99. It looks to me like they don't even
know who their #1 enemy is.Copy !req
100. Don't resist, punk!Copy !req
101. You there!
You're Princess Nia, aren't you?Copy !req
102. General Guame says that
he wants to see you.Copy !req
103. Guame? Very well,
I will see him.Copy !req
104. Just don't hurt this boy.Copy !req
105. Relax, we haven't been given
orders to kill anyone. Yet.Copy !req
106. N-Nia!Copy !req
107. Stay put!Copy !req
108. Don't worry about me.
I will be fine.Copy !req
109. Nia...Copy !req
110. Simon.Copy !req
111. You aren't your Bro, Simon.
I think you should just be yourself.Copy !req
112. You're with me.
Come on.Copy !req
113. Nia...Copy !req
114. Damn it, let go of me, you furballs!Copy !req
115. That's humans for you, no manners.
That's MISTER Furball to you.Copy !req
116. I am Guame, the Immovable,
one of the Four Generals!Copy !req
117. I'm taking back Dai-Gunzan.Copy !req
118. I'm going to execute you publicly
as a warning to the others.Copy !req
119. Stay put in here
until we're ready for you!Copy !req
120. The Spiral King has issued
orders to eliminate you.Copy !req
121. Then what Adiane said is true?Copy !req
122. It is indeed.Copy !req
123. If you'd died in your sleep in that box in
the valley, it would have been painless.Copy !req
124. His Majesty is imbued with immortality.
He's lived for a thousand years or so.Copy !req
125. Creating and raising children
is a pastime for him.Copy !req
126. When he grows tired of one,
he disposes of it.Copy !req
127. Just like he would a doll.Copy !req
128. That's all it is.Copy !req
129. Like a doll?Copy !req
130. I'm told that you asked him,
Why was I born?Copy !req
131. That was a bad move. His Majesty
detests human self-awareness.Copy !req
132. Who can blame him? Why would a puppet,
a plaything, need self-awareness?Copy !req
133. I am just like that doll...Copy !req
134. Truth be told, though,
you are far too lovely to kill.Copy !req
135. I've given some thought to the matter
of finding a way that you might live.Copy !req
136. Would you be interested in becoming
chief of this village?Copy !req
137. Its chief?Copy !req
138. Indeed. After all, the girls here
are from villages far and wide.Copy !req
139. Someone needs to teach them proper
etiquette before they're sent off to the king.Copy !req
140. To what end? What becomes of them
after they are sent away?Copy !req
141. The Spiral King lavishes them
with his affections.Copy !req
142. It's a fair exchange, isn't it?Copy !req
143. They get to experience luxury that they
would never know living underground.Copy !req
144. The girls who are sent away,
they're more dolls, aren't they?Copy !req
145. That's right. And once he grows tired
of them, they're discarded.Copy !req
146. Just like you were!Copy !req
147. Gurren LagannCopy !req
148. Gurren LagannCopy !req
149. Don't underestimate folks who
were raised underground!Copy !req
150. We'll bust outta this place
in no time flat!Copy !req
151. That hurt...Copy !req
152. Head hurt...!Copy !req
153. It's no use! People are getting hurt
with nothing to show for it!Copy !req
154. This bedrock is incredibly tough!
I've never seen anything like it!Copy !req
155. It's hopeless... Our bodies will
give out before that rock will.Copy !req
156. After all that, we haven't
so much as scratched it.Copy !req
157. It's enough to make you despair...Copy !req
158. Is this the end?Copy !req
159. If only Kamina was here...Copy !req
160. So, this is what he meant.Copy !req
161. Kamina said something
to me once.Copy !req
162. He's always the one
who saves my ass.Copy !req
163. He's always the one
who never gives up.Copy !req
164. He said that?Copy !req
165. My confidence was shot. I thought we
were heading in the wrong direction.Copy !req
166. I freaked out. Why did my dad
make it and I can't?Copy !req
167. Honestly, I was just acting tough.Copy !req
168. Everyone was whining,
and they stopped digging.Copy !req
169. I was at the end of my rope.Copy !req
170. But Simon kept on drilling away.Copy !req
171. His drilling let me
put on a brave face.Copy !req
172. By dumb luck, he broke through
the last boulder right then.Copy !req
173. We got lucky.Copy !req
174. But I have faith in that luck,
and in Simon, who brought us that luck.Copy !req
175. Whenever I feel timid and weak,
whenever I feel like I'm losing confidence,Copy !req
176. I think back to the sight of his back
all hunched over, digging away.Copy !req
177. I think to myself, I'll be a man that
won't be laughed at by that back.Copy !req
178. Listen, Simon. Never forget this.
Believe in yourself.Copy !req
179. Not in the Simon
that I have faith in.Copy !req
180. Not in the Kamina
that you believe in, either.Copy !req
181. - Believe in the Simon—
- ... who believes in you!Copy !req
182. Lagann?Copy !req
183. Lagann!Copy !req
184. Huh? Was there a hole
here before?Copy !req
185. General Guame, there's no sign of the
miniature Gunmen anywhere on the ship!Copy !req
186. Don't give me that!
It has to be here somewhere!Copy !req
187. Rip out the armor plating
if you have to, just find it!Copy !req
188. Y-Yes, sir!Copy !req
189. Why are you in such
a panic, Guame?Copy !req
190. What?Copy !req
191. You're afraid of him, aren't you?
You're scared of Simon.Copy !req
192. Huh? Who is that?Copy !req
193. Simon is the boy who first helped me
when I came down to the surface.Copy !req
194. Not only that, he is the boy who
always protects me when I need him.Copy !req
195. He will never lose
to the likes of you!Copy !req
196. Ah, I see. He's that thing's
operator, is he?Copy !req
197. Hey! Find the boy named Simon
among the prisoners and bring him to me!Copy !req
198. Yes, sir!Copy !req
199. - And the preparations for the executions?
- Everything is ready.Copy !req
200. Excellent. The first one we will
put to death is this Simon boy.Copy !req
201. I won't let you do it!Copy !req
202. I'm the one who gets to
decide such things.Copy !req
203. Be a good little discarded doll
and do what I tell you to do!Copy !req
204. I will not.Copy !req
205. You don't say? In that case,
you'll have to die, too.Copy !req
206. I will not!Copy !req
207. Oh?Copy !req
208. I may be just another
cast-off doll,Copy !req
209. but I have learned one thing
since coming to the surface!Copy !req
210. And what's that?Copy !req
211. Just as Simon believed in his Bro,
I believe in Simon!Copy !req
212. So, you won't yield, not even at
the bitter end. You're too naive.Copy !req
213. I've lost interest in you.
I've no need for you!Copy !req
214. W-What the—?Copy !req
215. Gramps? What are you
doing here?Copy !req
216. Nia! I'm here to rescue you!
Come on!Copy !req
217. Simon!Copy !req
218. Come with us—
Huh?Copy !req
219. Why, you!Copy !req
220. Come back here!Copy !req
221. General Guame!Copy !req
222. Follow that mini Gunmen!Copy !req
223. I'm sorry I took so long.Copy !req
224. That's okay.Copy !req
225. I figured it out.
Lagann told me, too.Copy !req
226. I understand now!Copy !req
227. So do I.
Thank you, Simon!Copy !req
228. Simon, move your hands.Copy !req
229. Now.Copy !req
230. Yeah!Copy !req
231. This is why...Copy !req
232. I always say humans
are savages!Copy !req
233. Oh, crap!Copy !req
234. - Consider the tables turned, humans!Copy !req
235. - You've thrown a wrench into my plans,
but I'm going to execute you myself!Copy !req
236. The sight of my
mighty Gember...Copy !req
237. and that of your own miserable
deaths will be projected...Copy !req
238. above the heads of every
human on the surface!Copy !req
239. Say what, you bastard?Copy !req
240. I'm the one you're going to fight!Copy !req
241. You think that little thing
is any match for my Gember?Copy !req
242. What's the matter?Copy !req
243. Gurren's being eaten!Copy !req
244. Take that! And that!
Just a little more!Copy !req
245. - Rossiu!
- Simon?Copy !req
246. Let's combine!Copy !req
247. Right!Copy !req
248. Damn it! It's that
mini Gunmen!Copy !req
249. I don't believe it! This is the
Gurren Lagann I've heard about?Copy !req
250. My Bro is dead.
He's gone.Copy !req
251. But he's on my back! In my heart!
He lives on as part of me!Copy !req
252. If you're gonna dig,
dig to breach the heavens.Copy !req
253. Even if it's my own grave
I'm digging, I keep going!Copy !req
254. Once I've dug my way through,
that means I've won!Copy !req
255. What? What are you
talking about?Copy !req
256. Who the hell do
you think I am?Copy !req
257. I'm Simon.Copy !req
258. I'm not my Bro, Kamina.
I'm ME!Copy !req
259. Simon the Digger!Copy !req
260. Spare me your ranting!Copy !req
261. Gember Press!Copy !req
262. Finishing Move!Copy !req
263. That move, it was—Copy !req
264. GIGA DRILL BREAK!Copy !req
265. Retreat!
Sound the retreat!Copy !req
266. Simon, there's someplace that
I'd like you to take me.Copy !req
267. These are all princesses who
were thrown away like I was.Copy !req
268. Generation after generation of
princesses who came before me.Copy !req
269. ALL of these?Copy !req
270. I'd like to give them all
a proper burial in a sunny place.Copy !req
271. Please.Copy !req
272. - Yeah!
- You got it!Copy !req
273. To me, Father was
my entire world.Copy !req
274. My whole life, I'd believed in no one but him.
Relied on no one but him.Copy !req
275. That's why I wanted to believe
in him until the very end.Copy !req
276. Why do you suppose
we were born?Copy !req
277. Nia, here.Copy !req
278. You can have it. I found it
while I was digging.Copy !req
279. It's lovely!Copy !req
280. It's hard to explain, but it doesn't matter why
you were born or if you were a princess.Copy !req
281. Right here and now,
that's the Nia you are.Copy !req
282. That's why you should
go on being yourself.Copy !req
283. And I'll live my life
as myself, too.Copy !req
284. Yeah, that's more like it.
That's the Team Dai-Gurren way.Copy !req
285. Ain't that right, Leader?Copy !req
286. You're the man that Kamina
picked for the job, all right.Copy !req
287. That name you gave yourself
is pretty half-assed, though.Copy !req
288. What? H-Hey, come on!Copy !req
289. Yeah, you're right!
That needs a little work!Copy !req
290. Thank you so much!Copy !req
291. I've input the location of the Capital.
All we do now is keep going straight.Copy !req
292. To Be Continued...Copy !req
293. Next TimeCopy !req
294. The salty air, the blazing sun...
This is the beach?Copy !req
295. It's a large pool of soft water?
Or a large reservoir of hard feelings?Copy !req
296. Next time on Gurren Lagann,Copy !req
297. Yoko, Will You Do Me
a Favor?Copy !req
