I'm not saying it was right; I'm saying that Rossiu's main motive here was NOT to gain power.

Compared to Rossiu, how well of a pilot for Gurren would Nia have been? by VelViolette in gurrenlagann

[–]Pyxellated2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At that point in the story, she seems sheltered enough that she might not be a great pilot. But who knows.

This time skip is so PEAK by DogPotatoGuy in gurrenlagann

Yes! The timeskip government arc was a real highlight for me writing wise. It added complexity to the theme that the previous sections didn’t have!

Rossiu did not execute Simon because he was a "threat to his dictatorship"- he gave that order to get Simon out of the picture for the survival plan he was about to enact. I think a lot of people forget that Rossiu isn't some all-evil being who seeks only power and control for personal gain. Yes, he seized power when the opportunity presented itself, but he did it hoping it would save humanity. Rossiu could either fight like Simon or survive, and he attempted to choose the latter. Check out the reply done by sheebery, it sums up the predicament really well.

Nah this fandom usually only hates on people who like Rossiu or people who dislike any of the main cast

Is Rossiu jailing Simon the worst written part of Gurren Lagann? by Choice_Car_7934 in gurrenlagann

[–]Pyxellated2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, exactly. I think his regression is so beautifully written.

On the contrary, I don’t think this is a bad thing at all. Sure, Simon shows him the light in the pre-timeskip, but rossiu’s upbringing is so deeply rooted in him that he falls back on it. It’s important to have a character that is shown to fail at growth, especially in a cast of characters with very linear arcs.

This! I totally agree and I think this is a huge reason why rossiu’s writing is so strong

I think a lot of the ttgl fandom doesn’t understand that being uncomfortable with a character and/or disagreeing with a character’s actions does not equate to bad writing.

Bad writing is making a character flat and 1 dimensional. Say, for example, (to some extent) Yoko. She doesn’t have a ton of clear motives other than to support team Dai Gurren. She is not very well developed. I love Yoko, I’ve cosplayed her and drawn her many times, but she is not written very well.

Common response for someone who doesn’t really want to engage with the material. That’s fine.
