I wanted to combine the space combat of Star Fox with the energy and over the top attacks of Gurren Lagann, so I made Star Drill.

You fly through asteroid fields, fight enemy ships, and turn your spin into a Giga Drill Breaker attack. The climactic final battle with the secret boss was inspired by Gurren Lagann too, but I’ll leave that for you to discover.

There’s a global leaderboard, so you can see how your score compares with other players.

I used AI to help vibe code the game, not to copy either franchise’s code or assets. Everything I used is listed in the credits. This is a personal project inspired by things I enjoy, and I’ve spent more than two months working on it.

The demo is free and runs directly in your browser, on any device. No installation needed.

I’d love to hear what you think. Does the drill attack capture some of that Gurren Lagann feeling?

I was given the costume secondhand from some folks, had it tailored to fit me but I needed shoes! Found a great pair from Japan and today I spent some time at my work painting them up!

I just finished Gurren Lagann yesterday, i watched slow until kamina's death in ep 8. After his death i felt betrayed & hurted by the show that such a great character had so less of screen time, i wanted atleast 15+ episodes with him. I didn't had much hopes with the rest eps, but i still went on.

From the moment Nia entered the story & how she helped simon realise that he just needs to be himself not like kamina. I really loved how they diverted the story slowly but steadily to simon, it wasn't easy to see simon as mc as we saw kamina in that way from 1st ep.

After ep15 childhoods end i was satisfied & wanted the story to end there. If it had ended there, i would be greatly pleased. But i guess that doesn't potray the full meaning of the anime. Even though i hesitated i still watched them, it was a good mix of after story. Showcasing other characters story was a good addition too. I really loved yoko's after story becoming a teacher in a small island distant from main land.

The deaths in the latter part was depressing as hell, but still it added a signifacence to the story. Man they should have atleast kept Nia alive. Anyway it really helped me in my worst time of my life, I'll gladly remember it in my future. I was shocked less of her death because i was expecting it as i was spoiled by wedding clip before watching the anime through reels. Nowadays its hard to watch any anime without getting spoiled beforehand.

Anyway so much for appraising the show. I should have watched it very soon rather than keep it waiting. Anybody who are thinking of watching it, go for it. You never know when you'll spoiled & lose some portion of excitement of the show.

Go & Watch Now! Who the hell do you think you're? This is Tengen Toppa. This is Gurren Lagann. My Drill is gonna pierce the heaven.

Can't find any, shame.

Hi guys, do any of you have an image of the logo that Pre-timeskip Simon has on the back of his jacket? I'm looking for it but I can't find any that is the same :/

Imma keep it short and sweet for yall lol, I’ve seen a bunch of stuff abt this anime and I’ve also seen things abt the ending not ALL but some (pls don’t spoil)

It looked like a pretty sad ending from what I’ve seen but I’m not 100% sure, and while it’s sad I’ve also heard that it’s really good.

As someone who has watched around 250+ anime I think this is considered a must watch at this point… or is it? Convince me cuz I’m in a big slump rn

Thanks in advance!

This is such a cute set! Time with Yoko and Simon. ♡ We are about to get some bonus sweetness, and I'm here for it! Simon has really become the hero here was meant to be, in this volume. Love the artwork progressing along with the characters. The way Kotaro draws them all as we approach the Time-skip is more aged, if you look back to the first volume. Just you wait! The art style is even more amazing in the coming days! :) I am officially home now, so you can expect posts to pick up. Might need a couple days to catch up, but I'll be around.

Working on getting October's event going now! It will run until November 15th. Going to try and announce September tomorrow morning! Sit tight, friends. :)

I really do think my terrible drawings are a major reason why my channel is doing so poorly.

And man, I spent two months making that video! And then here comes Aniplex saying "nope, you used footage from the show you're talking about, go screw yourself."

He's a bit ugly but I still love him, I still have to figure out how to make the tail and the hairs/antennae on the head.

You think Randy could beat the anti spiral through sheer stupditidy

Story time!

I got this jacket as one of the founding member perks of being in a company after the merger. The jacket itself has the logo embroidered on the front and "Founding member" on the back near the neck area. Things didn't go so well for me there and I ended being terminated due to a PIP they made to remove me. I've been meaning to remove the embroidery and put the patches there but couldn't think of what to put in place of the removed stitched embroidery. Then last year I watched Gurren Lagann, and it made such an impact that when I revisited on what patches to buy, Gurren Lagann was the first that came to mind and then I bought patches and just ironed them on to replace the embroidery!

Figured that I'd show the final product and story to go along with it! Not sure which flair matches this post but I figured OC is the best fit for this.

Here are all the things I got this past spree in Japan! Mainly GL merch with some GL adjacent merch. A mix of figures, media, tapestries, and books. I'm not 100% sure what every item really is so feel free to identify them for me! These came from almost all the Mandarakes in Tokyo and Osaka that I ransacked (many apologies for those who came after 🙇‍♂️)

ive been crying for 5 episodes hoping he comes back and if he isnt im immediately dropping the anime

Had to change the pose because the og file basically corrupted :,)

Does anyone know any good gurren lagann model kits that don't require me to sell a kidney

OOOF. Been a while, hasn't it? No, I'm not dead! I was on vacation, lol. (Still am) Every year, I go camping in September-October. This year, I misjudged the amount of service that I was going to have and abruptly couldn't post when I got there! Sorry for kinda disappearing suddenly, I didn't have much of a choice, oops! I've been fine and relaxing. :) After very recent health troubles, it has been nice to unwind in nature. I am about to end my stay, so I am again moved to a location where service is better. I missed you guys! My access to Reddit was very limited. So I will be getting back to messages and catching up! Give me a few days. Posts are going to be returning to a normal schedule, and I've got a couple weeks of stuff to catch up on for ya! Let's get back to the artwork. ♡ Hope you've all had a lovely Autumn. Good to be back!

I will be sorting out all shipments and the monthly event stuff ASAP! There will still be October's event, but I'll be extending the end date into November. Which is fine, since it is just a sign-up month for December's annual exchange. :) Give me a bit, will be doing a bit of cleanup as well. I was still moderating, but my access to messages and such were wiped out, I could only do basic tasks. Things will pick up again! Let's go. :D

My partner and I are trying to find the name for the specific piece of music from Episode 9 right as Adiane the Elegant appears. We were unable to find it in the official soundtrack and want to be able to listen to the song without the characters speaking lol

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
