This week, it's time to believe in the podcast that believes in you! Thanks to premium patron Devin, we're finally taking a look at Gurren Lagann: the late '00s anime sensation that's also the first series directed by future Studio Trigger co-founder Hiroyuki Imaishi. Listen in as we explore this anti-Evangelion and its big, stupid robots, crazy bursts of animation, and stirring speeches—basically, the key components of any good anime series. So sit back, relax, and get ready to drill, baby, drill!
