Rough Translation:
【10th anniversary of the start of Gurren Lagann】
【Major announcement! 】
A major announcement at the 10th anniversary rerun broadcasting “Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann” started on July 5 (Wednesday)! Do not miss out on broadcast CM!
To celebrate the big day, Tokyo MX1 and BS11 are re-broadcasting the original Gurren Lagann anime series starting on the same day.
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann is an original project from Gainax. Hiroyuki Imaishi (Kill la Kill, Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt) directed the project, which featured character designs by Atsushi Nishigori (Panty & Stocking in Sanitarybox). Kazuki Nakashima (Kill la Kill, Re: Cutie Honey) took charge of series composition for the title.
ADV Films briefly held the rights to Gurren Lagann, in which they produced an English dub for the show’s earliest episodes. This did get pressed and sent out to industry press as screeners, though the release never shipped to retail. Rather, Bandai Entertainment would officially release the show in North America in 2008.
Aniplex of America currently holds the domestic rights to Gurren Lagann, which they describe as:
In the distant future, mankind has lived restlessly underground for hundreds of years, subject to earthquakes and cave-ins. Living in one such village are two 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!
Aniplex plans to release a complete collection for Gurren Lagann in August.
