After seeing a lot of threads on him I was wondering why no one likes to discuss how Kamina was a coward. People like to paint him in this light of "complete badassery with no fear" but honestly he was just a teenager with a front. Numerous instances he stated that he was extremely scared but it was Simon that kept them going, he could keep up that fake confidence because of Simon, and Simon persevered because of that confidence. The point was that team dai-gurren found meaning in that facade.
So yeah, Kamina was a good character, but not because he was fearless- but because he was afraid and kept moving forward.
oh ok
Bravery means to go ahead despite being afraid.

Exactly, facing your fear is bravery. A simple concept, yet a lot of people tend to not get that. They think he was fearless.
>>159925952
Well its not like you made a huge discovery or something. Everything you say is true and its obvious. What is left to discuss about something that is already there in plain sight?
>>159926055
Have you not encountered people denying this?
>>159925952
Only "turn your brain off" idiots paint him as a complete badass with no fear. But you're right, and it's part of why Gurren Lagann is so great.

Do people really sleep with their bros like this?
>>159926154
Not anymore they don't. Nowadays everybody must have a personal room and sleep alone.
Psychiatrists argue that this leads to psychological problems in children, but whatever. It's a necessary price for freedom.

>he doesn't cuddle with his bro
Fucking faggot

Not really, even if there are, they have a point too. Kamina was a complete badass, but he was a coward, but he had Simon, but that made him badass, but he is a coward, and so on. Thats why theres not much room for discussion when it comes to Kamina, if you shit on him, or love him, chances are that you are completely right on your POV about him, hes both a good and bad character.

I don't have any bros man ;_;
>Kamina faked confidence
>Made Simon confident
>Made Kamina confident
>Made Simon more confident
>Made the team more confident
>Tfw they created meaning from nothing
>Yfw the relationship feeds back onto itself in a loop like a drill
pretty much all the character in GL even the villains put up a false front.
>>159926250
A drill doesn't feed back on itself
>>159926360
Motion leads to motion, action and reaction, a drill makes itself stronger by continuing like infinity in their universe. Did you even watch Gurren Lagann?

>Don't believe in yourself, believe in me who believes in you.
Pottery.

Shit feels great to wear.

Everyone is afraid you retard. A coward is someone who gives in to his fear. How are you so bad at basic life

>the average anime viewer is a retard unable to see past the superficial outer layer

What would you choose, sleeping with your bro until your twenties and no psychological problems (depression, autism, ADHA, anxiety, everything) or freedom in your adolescence and every mental disability you have now?
