It's really sad, but he died defeating the general and to save simon. On top of that, he died smiling happy and content. Wait! there's more! The fact is he seems to have embodied the fighting spirit AND living in Simon..sort of.
i once was speeding and THE MAN tried to pull me over. during the chase, i transformed my car into Gurren Lagann mode and unleashed a GIGA DRILL BREAK!!!!!...needless to say they won't be hassling me anymoar gais!
@landicon and then they made the movie, which basically broke the dial of the AWESOMEAMP by adding yet ANOTHER HUGE ROBOT (bigger than a few hundred galactic clusters), made of pure spiral energy, which housed a galaxy sized robot, which housed a moon sized robot, which housed a city sized robot, which housed a building sized robot, which was copiloted by a mansized robot.
Kamina is the best anime character ever to me and i hated how he died but love this part so much. but still would been cool if it was GIGA DRILL BREAKER!!!!!
Before there was Kamina and Gurren Lagann, there was Turn X and Gym Ghingham. Before there was Turn X and Gym Ghingham, there was G Gundam and Domon Kasshu. Kamina's manliness is derived from both Gundam pilots.
And...
Doesn't Kamina's english voice actor sound like Domon's??
its really interesting how they translated it too. in the raw, he says, "HISATSU!" and here they say "FINISHING MOVE!". similar but hisatsu is "sure-killing"
Your all wrong. -.- It really is Break. Breaker results from the fact that there is no translation for K into Japanese, so they really say Brea-kan to make up for that, and it happens to sound like breaker the way they say it. If you listen to the one done by the voice actor for Wakamoto(not sure what from) you can hear the n more clearly.
A show so awesome explosions explode. I've said it before and I'll say it again: "Gurren Lagann doesn't try to be epic. Epic tries to be Gurren Lagann."
Well its final this Drill is getting moved to my new channel! LandiconVideoPro! Make sure eveyone can see this by thumbing it up! And go to the new video so it gets all the views! :D
@hulkmeister23 Its Break in japan they just put a lot of emphasis on the last part of words that they say in English so it just sounds like they're saying breaker
@Krosbryd and you know what, Simon was fucking right.....to this day we still can never replace Kamina......(or Nia, or Kittan, or half the Dai Gurren team) :-( i'm sad nao.
@KngofPirates personally I try to watch both duns of an anime, if I really enjoy it, to be fair to both sides. I also find it hard to determine which dub is better, espesially with anime dubbed by Bandai or FUNimation. I will agree, though, that the young Simon's voice in english is preferable for me. Yurri Lothrel really got the emotion right, IMHO.
You guys just want to look all official by saying that the jap dub is better and it pwns the English dub just kuz its original in Japanese. First of all this is the English dub kuz it says BREAK!!! if you want to go to your jap dub look for Breaker and don't troll here. I personally like Break better then Breaker kuz it sounds much more heroic then barbaric. Go watch it in jap reading subs and wasting time pausing and missing stuff by reading English subs. Naruto is the only exception.
It does say "break" in Japanese. Well, "bureiku," which was misheard by subbers as "breaker."
Also, sometimes, an English dub is horrible or just meh, giving a very good reason for subs. The only voice that I disliked in the English dub was Kamina, not because he was bad, but because he wasn't over the top enough. More often than not, the Japanese dub is better than the English dub due to the voice actors' ability, not that it's in English.
its really not that bad of a dubbing, ive seen much, dear god much worse. And i think the KAAAH part of breaker just filled in more space and gives a nice yell to it xD.
honestly people no1 cares if English is better then Japanese dub and vice versa i only watch the english version because I just sounds better and i dont like reading the subtitles.
There's been a misunderstanding. I knew that it was Japanese to English translation. What I meant was why didn't they keep it as Breaker(rather than translating it back toBreak) seeing as Breaker sounds better than Break?
@TheTsugnawmi2010 I don't even think its actually breaker in the translation, when you listen to it in japanese it just sounds like they slur the k into making an ah/er noise.
@KetsuRosataMalnor It's pronounced as Break-a but spelled Breaker. What I was asking is why they didn't keep as the way it was spelt if you paid attention to my comment at all...
The Japanese script doesn't use "breaker' (In Japanese characters of course, not roman letters), it uses "break." The reason it sounds like breaker is because of how Japanese pronounce English words.
Sadly Kamina had to borrow Simon's power to pull this off. Yes, Kamina is weak compared to Simon in Spiral Energy. He is the weakest as said by Gainax themselves. If you actually pay attention, Kamina comes off as someone hiding their cowardace behind bravado. SOMETHING HE HIMSELF SAYS TO YOKO.
@Evnyofdeath If you watch though, he wasn't helpless, and he was growing with each fight through sheer determination. His bravado wasn't to mask cowardice -- it was to inspire. Kamina believed in the Simon who believed in him, and it wasn't any half-assed belief either. That's not the way Team Gurren rolls.
@Evnyofdeath well, off course he's the weakest, he DIED IN EPISODE 8......way too early in the show to have developed much spiral energy at all, especially since we really don't start being explained the concept for a few moar episodes...hell, even simon doesn't know how hes doing what hes doing till later
@TheTsugnawmi2010 When the japanese pronounce the english "K" they add an AH sound to it. Because of that, when they say "Break" it sounds like "Breakah" which sounds like "Breaker"
@TonyBMan yes but it sounds funnier if you just be direct and just call it what it is, " killing people". Violence could be anything, it could be slapping a bitch or knocking an old man down some stairs. But "killing people"? Now there's something a raging lunatic can really get behind.
@razoremblem Well, they got the best guy they could to voice him. I couldn't think of anyone better than Kyle Hebert. It could've been someone like Todd or Vic, and that would be a nightmare.
@TheTsugnawmi2010, its supposed to "break". Japanese voicing makes it sound like "breaker" which most fans have found to compliment it very nicely.
Its also the best way to troll Gurren Lagann fans, but anyone with sense just breaks down the wall of doubt and kicks that bit of logic out the window anyway.
@clos1122 To add to that, the context of how it's said would be better with a single syllable. Trying to yell off a two syllable word at the top of your lungs in that fashion would sound awkward.
@clos1122 its tru, cuz in japan its SKREAMED at the top of ones lungs, resulting in GIGA......DORIRUUUUUU.....BRRRREEEEAAAKKKKKKEEEHHHAAAAYAAHHHHSDFDFHDHGSFVJKFCX
I hear GAR in my own language for the first time ever. A dub that's better than the original, that's flat out impossible... and ironic considering the source.
@kopper101 Meh, I'm pretty sure if it was pronounced "Simon," there'd just be someone else complaining about how it's pronounced "Simon," and not "Sea-mone."
@Semp314 I have to disagree there. Simon's first Giga Drill Break is slightly more epic than this simply because of the amazing speech that proceeded it. And I don't even need to mention the final Break or the King Kittan Giga Drill Break.
Still, considering that this is one of the top 10 greatest finishing moves of all time, it's really a testament to how awesome the others are.
@ItsSomeDeadGuy i agree with you, the Final Break was borderlining the best with kamina's. If you ever watch the 2 movies (Gurren-hen and Lagann- hen) they go past Tengen Toppa and go to Super Tengen Toppa which pretty much is a giant Simon made of souls... 'nuff said :)
@landicon actually, that wasn't a giant simon made of souls. that was a giant Kamina made of souls, therefore prroving how awesome Kamina. So, as Phoenix Wright would say... "TAKE THAT!"
@Evnyofdeath Yeah, I guess you're right. I just keep thinking because of the Cape it's Kamina. The hair-style could be considered Kamina's, although it is more reminescent of Simon's, and the glasses... yeah, it probably is Simon. Well, I take back my "Take that" from my previous comment, and apologize to landicon. But hey, it's not like it COULDN'T have been Kamina, since Kamina is... well, Kamina XP
@Semp314 i guess, not like THEY ARE FUCKING IDENTICAL or anything....even tho simon's final giga drill break is BIGGER THAN A FEW FUCKING GALAXIES....while kamina may have set the bar, simon took it upon himself to jack that bar up to OVER 9000 in EPIC.
I do admit that it was a really good attempt at the manliness during the "Giga Drill Break". It surely is a shining moment in Dub History, it's hard to mess up such an epic scene.
I'm glad we have at least someone who can appreciate the amount of epicness this dub, above all other dubs, has. I've seen so many others who just effortlessly bash it as though they DON'T hear how loud Kyle Herbert sounds here, even if it doesn't sound "hot blooded" to you, it sounds bloody awesome to me. It's one of the best English, no THE best English dub I've ever heard in my life.
Epicness= TRUE i agree this was an extremely good dub, lol when my friend introduced it to me i didnt really like it but then i was snowed in my house watched it and couldnt stop XD now this is one of my favorite scenes!
@Momentum139 the only problem I have with the dub is that it's not a full translation. Simons name was not supposed to have been pronounced seemon, but actually simon. The japanese just said it the way they did because of engrish. They should have made the name simon because in English, saying seemoon just sounds akward
It's really sad, but he died defeating the general and to save simon. On top of that, he died smiling happy and content. Wait! there's more! The fact is he seems to have embodied the fighting spirit AND living in Simon..sort of.

this is just pure epicness kamina's got the manliest giga drill break ever way better than simon's
Semp314 1 year ago
@Semp314 mhmm Simon's isnt too bad especially at the end of the show and kitans wasnt too bad either but i agree with u Kaminas break is better :3
landicon 1 year ago
@Semp314 I have to disagree there. Simon's first Giga Drill Break is slightly more epic than this simply because of the amazing speech that proceeded it. And I don't even need to mention the final Break or the King Kittan Giga Drill Break.
Still, considering that this is one of the top 10 greatest finishing moves of all time, it's really a testament to how awesome the others are.

@ItsSomeDeadGuy i agree with you, the Final Break was borderlining the best with kamina's. If you ever watch the 2 movies (Gurren-hen and Lagann- hen) they go past Tengen Toppa and go to Super Tengen Toppa which pretty much is a giant Simon made of souls... 'nuff said :)
landicon 1 year ago
@landicon I thought it was a giant Kamina considering the cape.
Let's just all the Breaks are awesome in their own way.
Kamina's was awesome for inventing the move as he was dying.
Simon's awesome speech that came before his.
And Kittan's for being twice the size of the original.

@landicon actually, that wasn't a giant simon made of souls. that was a giant Kamina made of souls, therefore prroving how awesome Kamina. So, as Phoenix Wright would say... "TAKE THAT!"
BloodShot9001 1 year ago
@BloodShot9001 Look at STTGL again. The hairstyle and glasses are Simon's.
Evnyofdeath 1 year ago
@Evnyofdeath Yeah, I guess you're right. I just keep thinking because of the Cape it's Kamina. The hair-style could be considered Kamina's, although it is more reminescent of Simon's, and the glasses... yeah, it probably is Simon. Well, I take back my "Take that" from my previous comment, and apologize to landicon. But hey, it's not like it COULDN'T have been Kamina, since Kamina is... well, Kamina XP

@Semp314 i guess, not like THEY ARE FUCKING IDENTICAL or anything....even tho simon's final giga drill break is BIGGER THAN A FEW FUCKING GALAXIES....while kamina may have set the bar, simon took it upon himself to jack that bar up to OVER 9000 in EPIC.

I do admit that it was a really good attempt at the manliness during the "Giga Drill Break". It surely is a shining moment in Dub History, it's hard to mess up such an epic scene.
DaiChopstickBrigade 1 year ago 3
I'm glad we have at least someone who can appreciate the amount of epicness this dub, above all other dubs, has. I've seen so many others who just effortlessly bash it as though they DON'T hear how loud Kyle Herbert sounds here, even if it doesn't sound "hot blooded" to you, it sounds bloody awesome to me. It's one of the best English, no THE best English dub I've ever heard in my life.

Epicness= TRUE i agree this was an extremely good dub, lol when my friend introduced it to me i didnt really like it but then i was snowed in my house watched it and couldnt stop XD now this is one of my favorite scenes!
landicon 1 year ago
@Momentum139 the only problem I have with the dub is that it's not a full translation. Simons name was not supposed to have been pronounced seemon, but actually simon. The japanese just said it the way they did because of engrish. They should have made the name simon because in English, saying seemoon just sounds akward
