天元突破グレンラガン 紅蓮篇
Simon is a shy, naive boy living in an underground village where humanity has been forced to dwell for centuries. His only friend, the boisterous Kamina, dreams of a world above the surface, a place he believes exists despite the elders' warnings. Their lives are turned upside down when a giant mechanical creature called a Gunmen crashes through their village's ceiling, followed by a beautiful girl named Yoko, who wields a powerful rifle from the surface world.
Together, Kamina, Simon, and Yoko escape to the surface using a small mecha named Lagann, which Simon discovered in the rubble. But the surface is not the paradise Kamina imagined. It is a barren wasteland ruled by the Spiral King and his army of beastmen, who oppress all of humanity. Simon and Kamina must rally a band of rebels to fight back with their mecha, Gurren Lagann, and challenge the Spiral King to reclaim the world and bring hope to the future.
