Story of GURREN LAGANN
This is the story of a man who has yet to realize what destiny holds in store for him….
In the distant future, mankind has lived quietly and restlessly underground for hundreds of years, subject
to earthquakes and cave-ins. Living in one such village are 2 young men: one named Simon who is shy
and naïve, and the other named Kamina who believes in the existence of a “surface” world above their
heads. The destiny of these two starts moving drastically when the ceiling of their village falls in, and a
gigantic “Gunmen” and a beautiful girl named Yoko, wielding a superconductive rifle, come from the
surface. Together, Kamina, Simon and Yoko ride the mecha “Lagann” that Simon digs out of the ground,
and fly up to the surface!
