Viral's Dream

[gurrenlagannFORever]

things like this should be ileagle for being this sad

[Alpha4256]

@SteelthewolfX I'm over a year late but I just wanted to say thanks that comment made my day because this scene was so sad and your realization brought my spirits up. Even though this is just an anime lol

[Alpha4256]

This made me cry for a solid 5 minutes after I realized the dreams were their desires and unlike the others viral can never have his come true and he also lives forever made it worse. BTW I very rarely cry at anything this was so surprising and had so much meaning it hit me hard

[Wark4576]

Simon's dream was sadder, but I do feel more sorry for Viral. Living forever, yet being unable to have that which he desires the most.

[innegativeion]

I completely did not see this scene coming, and when it did it hit me like a ton of bricks.

I've almost never cried in response to video games, TV of any kind, or movies but... but this was just so unexpectedly heart-wrenching I balled my eyes out.

[IshidaTheQuincy]

0:20 is the most badass moment ever.

[Promethiustehawesome]

This seriously almost made me cry, and not many things do that

[briancollazo46]

3 people have no hearts

[jakeblackwood100]

O and what i ment by cry is just one single manly tear

[jakeblackwood100]

This always makes me cry

[NyanCat000]

when I first saw this scene, I complete didnt see that coming and my face was sorta like :0 then I cried :|

[earbitter]

So sad, the one thing he can never have. His line there is the on the top three saddest lines from this series, and then he zips away like a badass.  Viral = Pro.

[jamesanator1000]

Wish there was a subbed version :(

[briancollazo46]

@jamesanator1000 gross

[VickTheQuick]

wait... is he a man (human being) in his dream?

he seems to have normal eyes and teeth until he is awakened at the end.

but, then, what is up with his cat-womanish wife...

[earbitter]

@VickTheQuick Being a beastman, he can't reproduce. This is the one thing he wants but can never have, a family like him. :(

[deaththekid80801]

i feel bad for him all he wants is a family but that cant happen if he is a beast man but, beast men aren't supposed to use spiral power so it might be that he can.i guess we will never no.

[kilala434]

0:06 its chi (kinda)

[SSj5Bob]

:<

[AngelMeerkat2]

This scene always makes me cry.

[rikun0clan]

This made me cry

[DragonsScarletScythe]

The manliest tears were shed!

[unlimitedswagg0456]

so what viral go married to zelda??? link is gonna be sooooo pissed >:D

[JonArt93]

Is it me or does Viral sound like Minoru from Lucky Star? ( The english version that is.)

[frozenpnx]

I CRY EVERY FUCKING TIME I SEE THIS!

[ClericLordLeo]

so who's the mother

[WW2obsession]

This scene made me cry harder than anything else in the series.

[lolhacks1]

It's interesting to see another side of viral shows he ain't all bad

[RimaaStudio]

Is cute <3 but his wife looks like old bit*h XD

[koran222]

I rly like Viral and TTGL because they show you the idea of the evil why they act like they act and why tehre isnt much of ure evil in this world there alway some bigger thought behind it may it be wrong or right idea and this scene is propapby the sadest scene i have ever saw in anime.

[TheByrdWhoLovesRock]

I love how his expression changes from caring father to blood thirsty warrior.

[DarkMephiles]

When I first saw this I almost cried. But then I remembered this is Gurren Lagann, and I was not yet ready to cry manly tears. Maybe some day.....

[lolhacks1]

@DarkMephiles a real man would cry manly tears

[Keyshe54]

One of my favorite parts in the whole series, bittersweet too. This and when Kamina spirit shows up in the dream world to save Simon and Yoko. T_T Thanks for posting this!

[pureshadows]

You now realise that Viral's original VA played Link out of the Legend of Zelda games and this dream is a clear reference to that fact with Zelda in the background as the female beastman. also in the original version, as Viral jumps off, you can hear Link's 'yell when attacking' grunt.

[cloudguile]

cute kid scene and badass smile

[DoodlezNStuff]

I was already crying and had started to feel better at this point...and then this scene just killed me. So unexpected. Funny how he went from scowling antivillain to Woobie in a few seconds. I seriously hope he finds someone and adopts or something. ;A;

[orlandrake]

This scene is actually more sad than Kamina's death.

[xPhantomRose]

@orlandrake I agree with you :) Kamina's death was nothing compared to this... D: Viral just wanted a family, Kamina's death has left a legacy, but Viral's dream brings a tear into my eye T-T

[earbitter]

@xPhantomRose I actually have to argue against that. Go back to Kamina's death. Saddest part, Simon didn't hear him say "later buddy."

[jaide600]

@heroas10 yeah I think I watched the whole thing in 2 days too

[fullmetaldude7]

at 0:20 thats when you know he's here to FUCK SHIT UP!.... virals so awesome

[seniorwhalez1]

a moment to cry

[KapaBahamut]

any one know where i can just find all there dreams beginning with simons?

[Ladmaro]

@KapaBahamut Search on this: TTGL Dream Sequence (English dub)

[bobo754]

Gah, wish I could find this whole scene >_<

[newbie1393]

god, I can't stop watching this. It's one of the few scenes that actually almost made me cry (others being Kamina, Kinon and everyone else's death scenes of course).

[newbie1393]

@newbie1393 sorry, I meant to say Kittan

[zumbiebunny]

its the second to last episode i think i cant remeber how many eps there are but i love viral he's always been my fave

[Lystius]

RAW RAW FIGHT THE POWAH!!!!

[heroas10]

wow beggening of the episode i watched all 27 of it in 2 days wow i thoght he was evil and then when i finished and now im like WTF all the bad guys turn into good guys infact most animes are like that O-O

[RainyLittleGhost]

FUCKING LOVE VIRAL.

[Siyota]

Its sounds better in Japanese.. Dubbed ruin it DDD:

[mugenrider754]

@Siyota

you right....

[AnimeEaterMX]

This part made me cry, Viral is Awesome, but this is why I watch the subbed versions, the dubbed ones make everything suck lol

[DreamTiger5]

Love this scene. To bad the voice acting was sub-par =(

[SteelthewolfX]

This scene makes me feel happy. Know why? Beastmen can't reproduce without Spiral power. And What is it Viral has there? Is that spiral power? I think it is!

[VGfan]

I cried at that part D: it was so sad the first time...it's still sad

[CyberSlayer128]

you know someones a badass when he dreams of a beautiful wife and cute daughter while living in the countryside

[Brocakedonut]

This part made me sad.I saw it and was like."Well they broke all other probability in this anime why can viral peirce.....................the­.....uh nevermind."

[Kodaiaku]

Does anyone know the name of Viral's... I guess, lover?

[Wurzelknecht]

Moreover it was just mentioned once(if I remember correctly), that they can't have children and by the time this scene comes up, most of us almost forgot about it and get hit by the full impact of the fact that Viral, whom most of us always just saw as the cool asskicker, has those feelings and will never find this happyness...

[Wurzelknecht]

This is one of my favourite Scenes in TTGL. It may not be the most spectacular but it stands out nonetheless, because in a mere 20 seconds it shows us the full tragedy of the Character Viral. He lives forever but is destined never to be able to achieve his greatest desire, because Beastmen can't reproduce.

[rinalightingninja]

I've always seen this scene in amvs and I want to know what episode it was from or was it from the movie?

[glasgowsmilee]

I'm pretty sure it was in episode 26.

[juliet20201]

@glasgowsmilee yea its from one the last episode

[Customness]

Viral ftw....

[MizzMakayla]

[MelieeLawliet]

[RenosEMR]

[cjb422]

wait! if viral can't reproduce then.... VIRAL DOESN'T HAVE A FREAKIN DICK THEN!!!!

[PenItFoMeYo]

No, just means he shoot blanks.

[cjb422]

[PenItFoMeYo]

XD You'll learn soon enough.

[cjb422]

reeeeeaaaaally?

[PenItFoMeYo]

Oh yes.

[cjb422]

wtf?! you said oh yes as if it were somethin very messed up! O.O

[PenItFoMeYo]

When you learn what it means, youll think its messed up :P

[cjb422]

ok then HEY wait a minute!!! are you saying it means that he shoots blanks as in he shoots cum???!!!!!!!!! SIIIIICCCKKK!!!! i think thats what your saying.

[PenItFoMeYo]

Lmao.

[cjb422]

oy! whats so funny eh?!

[PenItFoMeYo]

CUM! I would hump the hell out of Viral.

[cjb422]

i don't think viral would like that! hey viral!

viral:what?!

cjb:someone wants to ride you!

viral: HOLY SH***T!!

[PenItFoMeYo]

XDD I could juuust imagine.

-Humps the hell out of Viral-

YEAH! YEAH! TAKE IT!

[cjb422]

ok now you're scarin the crap out of me.

[PenItFoMeYo]

I do that to a lot of people, dont worry.

[cjb422]

hmph.

[PenItFoMeYo]

Feh..

[SilvicGirl123]

Poor Viral.

):

Heck.

Like the last 2 eps.

Made me feel so upset.

EPIC anime ending.

But Sad.

Left me thinking.

[PenItFoMeYo]

I thought this was the saddest fucking part in the anime. Besides Kamina dying..

[Lizard27411]

They made him sound all pissy about having that dream in the dub... I miss the original line.

[CrashB111]

damnit i was having a good day and then i rewatched this scene and now im depressed...the ending to Gurren Lagann was great but it does leave you feeling empty inside cause its sad

[OmegaShenron17]

dis is so touching..indeed

viral is my favorite antagonist....but now a protagonist..

[Japanime13]

was his "wife" ever in the show or was it just a dream thing?

[BipolarCucco]

Tsuuma was only in this short clip. But she has shown up in a special short story that was voiced over.

[Japanime13]

was that short a parallel works or is she in another one

[Lizard27411]

It's a anti-spiral induced dream sequence.

[doomsday12345]

sadly no, beastmen cant reproduce...poor viral

[Isaia]

"here daddy *giggle*

I died of sadcute.

[Katnappe13]

AWE!!!!!!!! T^T *hugs Viral 2 death* I feel sooooooo bad fr him!!!! *cries*

[BipolarCucco]

DUUUUUUUB

[doomsday12345]

viral longed for the one thing he could never have...a family...*cries*

[benjaythewhite]

I guess it proves that even Viral has dreams of peace and wanting a family. That makes him human in my books.

[HirolUnari]

@doomsday12345 "We're alike, Viral and I. But he has many things that I lack - one of them being a strong sense of responsibility."

[allenwalker4th]

@HirolUnari viral was the second best character in that anime next to kamina because they were the same they had a dream a dream to reach the highest heavens and pierce the universe to achive it but only viral touch those heavens and soared above them kamina is watching over them in that giant world but he will always be in our hearts

[gamerfreak42]

@doomsday12345 And even if he could have it, he's immortal so he'd outlive any wife or kids he could have... *cries more*
