Timeskip Characters + Pictures
I've decided to add the post-timeskip previews for each character. With the original pre-timeskip pictures on the left, and the post-timeskip new pictures on the right. I've also decided to make the post-TS pictures have equal width and height, to seperate them from the landscape images and make them easier to create. Any objections to this? especially considering it could change the layout a bit. It would be good if people could help out by adding new pictures as well, but try to use screenshots.

Other Characters
Theirs a lot more characters not included (Like the guy who uses the star shaped yellow Gunmen, the guy who is usually on the bridge of the Dai-Gurren with Leeron, and the two look alike tall characters who have the same facial hair and usually say the same thing. 69.248.63.92 17:03, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
death of kamina
An update of the death of Kamina needs to be added, I will do it if there is no one else/objections (76.172.76.65 01:59, 12 June 2007 (UTC))
Nia's Banishment
Someone needs to update about why Nia was banished from the Spiral Empire; the reference currently there does not point to anything specific.
I thought it was because she asked the Spiral King why she was made, why she was born. The king promptly discarded her for having "human-like emotions". As far as I remember. 69.248.63.92 20:45, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
Lord Genome/Lordgenome?
which one? most fansubbers use the last one, but i dont know if that is official...80.196.107.246 23:33, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
- Well, Lordgenome IS the official name, but in English it would be "Lord Genome", no doubt. I think calling him Lord Genome would be best. N-Denizen 16:41, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
Origin of names
Where do these "origins" for the character names come from? They should be sourced or removed. Bnynms 16:15, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
- I was under the impression that it was just looking at the kana/kanji and figuring out "what best works". Obviously OriginalResearch. But, tehn again, any time i've found "origins", they were never sourced.
Cleanup/THINGS TO DO
There seems to be some Original Research on this page - I'm not too up-to-date on what is allowed or not, but if anybody could give it a look through and clean it up in terms of Original Research, it would be appreciated.
Also, we need to start getting sources on a lot of the stuff mentioned. this page has NONE!—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.248.63.92 (talk • contribs).
- Cleanup? Definitely needed. Original Research? Almost unavoidable right now. This is still a fairly new series and there really aren't any "sources" around at the moment that could be used for character descriptions. I suppose all we can do is just work with what we've got for now... KojieroSaske 09:22, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Most Sources are from the episodes themself, or more commonly the official Gainax website(s) N-Denizen 16:23, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
Character Surnames
http://www.gainax.co.jp/anime/gurren-lagann/chara.html
According to Gainax's official website, characters now have surnames (with the exception of Simon, Yoko, Viral and Old Coco). The names, however, just appear to be from their respective village names.
I'd also suggest moving Simon, Kamina, Yoko and Nia to a seperate "Main Characters" section, the Gurren Brigade section is far too congested and I'd suggest making it more organised. And also, the entity that has taken control of Nia calls itself the "Anti-Spiral"(in English, BTW). --Robtf 06:41, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
- That makes sense. So, Main Characters and Secondary Characters sections, plus surnames and other small edits here and there.
- Actually, I think it should stay as one page, splitting it up into 3 was unnecessary. Robtf 10:39, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Spoiler tags needed?
Just wondering if this article needs spoiler tags. Kamina's death is huge. Khargas 20:39, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
I was wondering if it was possible to create a link that directly links to a section on another page. That way, we could put link with each character linking to their personal Gunmen.

- You can. This is a link to Lagann on the mecha page: [[List of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann mecha#Lagann]] , and it will look like this List of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann mecha#Lagann. You can also use pipes to change the link like so: [[List of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann mecha#Lagann|Lagann]] gives you Lagann. --Transfinite (Talk / Contribs) 17:48, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
- Perfect, thanks alot Transfinite - N-Denizen 19:51, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Character images
There are a number of images on Gainax's Gurren-Lagann character pages (http://www.gainax.co.jp/anime/gurren-lagann/chara.html). I can manage the GIMP enough to where I could crop out a head shot. Should the article use these images as opposed to the screenshots? There are few of the characters where the images from Gainax's web page are a lot better then the screenshots, in my opinion. --Transfinite (Talk / Contribs) 03:05, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
