"Their journey in search of the enemy's headquarters continues." "However... we haven't seen any Gunmen lately." "You have a point." "I don't want my skills to get rusty." "anyway?" "didn't we?" "This is the best place to be while we're underway." "it's murder on my butt." "You sure it's not 'cause your ass is too big?" "What did you say?" "!" "this is so comfy!" "you're heavy!" "you dumb broad?" "you don't say?" "Sounds to me like you want a taste of one of my meatball bullets." "not those!" "The surface around here seems to have been made comparatively recently." "How recent is "recently"?" "I'd say." "you crazy bitch!" "You'll kill me!" "you big baby!" "do they?" "Kamina and Yoko fell through." "What an enormous cavern!" "I've never seen anything like it!" "How far down does this thing go?" "!" "Not One Bit!" "Good thing I came around first..." "People have come from the Face God!" "Messengers from the Celestial Lands!" "Face God?" "That's a..." "That's a Gunmen!" "What a wreck..." "Please don't touch that!" "That is our village's guardian deity." "Forehead Boy!" "Don't you have more to throw on the fire?" "My name is Rossiu." "This is all we have here." "ain't it?" "Hey!" "Don't be rude!" "Hey!" "Did you guys really come from the Celestial Lands?" "Are you messengers of the Face God?" "What's the deal with these kids?" "Darry." "Go somewhere else." "Okay... so everyone spoils them." "Who cares about that?" "what's that Gunmen doing there?" "Gunmen?" "You mean the Face God?" "you don't know what that is?" "you weren't any different not too long ago." "What the hell?" "!" "What did I do to deserve all this grief from you?" "shut up!" "Yoko?" "Yes?" "but would you mind putting this on?" "Why?" "um..." "Perhaps you could cover up?" "it is indecent!" "I'm not crazy about outfits like this that restrict my movements." "What now?" "do ya?" "Scum!" "Thug!" "Stinking louse!" "you know that?" "Simon?" "Please stop this violent behavior!" "I would expect Celestians to refrain from such lewd conduct in front of our villagers." "Celestians?" "These people are Celestians?" "they travel in the company of Face Gods." "Please show them all due respect." "Rossiu!" "what is it?" "T-There's a problem!" "Ucom's wife just gave birth!" "But that is good news!" "I was about to suggest to our guests that we visit the High Priest." "and the second is a boy." "As is the third!" "What?" "!" "Huh?" "Why are they freaking out?" "Triplets?" "To Ucom and his wife?" "Yes." "that brings the village's population to 52." "then." "Father Magin?" "do you not understand?" "This rite bestows a great blessing." "just as we did with your mother." "this place is depressing." "Old Giha Village was nothing like this." "Is it time to eat yet?" "Isn't that what this is?" "This ain't enough!" "I need me some meat..." "I wanna have meat!" "I suspect that this is a grand welcome for us." "They have no electricity." "No herds of livestock." "All they have here is a tiny pond and a broken Gunmen." "Which means that even a meal like this is precious." "My apologies." "Was the meal not to your liking?" "might I impose on you to tell me of the Celestial Lands?" "Forehead Boy?" "Does that mean you want more than the life of a cellar dweller?" "Then let me get this out of the way!" "Gunmen are no gods!" "But that has been our belief since long before I was born." "Your people have always lived like this?" "they say that our lot has improved considerably since the High Priest took over the administration of the village." "who is he?" "please do not test this boy's piety any further." "Your words are too much for our people to accept." "You're the High Priest?" "I apologize for neglecting to introduce myself." "and I govern this village." "huh?" "we have an important ceremony tomorrow." "Go to bed." "Father." "as well." "If you will excuse me..." "Bro?" "!" "Are you some kind of moron?" "!" "I don't like that guy." "and definitely not that holier-than-thou attitude." "Gurren Lagann" "Gurren Lagann" "the thing still works!" "Good morning." "Forehead Boy." "The key to making it work is spirit!" "I had no intention of doing so..." "Put everything else out of your head!" "Just do what feels natural!" "It's a great feeling." "Rossiu!" "F-Father Magin!" "There he is again." "Rossiu?" "Who told you that you may touch the Face God?" "I-I apologize." "old-timer!" "It finally came to me." "Bro... ...and I realized that you look like the chief of our old village." "Simon?" "maybe he does..." "You and your friends... you wanna fight?" "...ought to leave this village if you have no further business here." "Say what?" "!" "Huh?" "surely it does not need to be held now." "All three of these children might not survive." "Ucom." "Those chosen during this rite receive the gods' blessing." "please draw." "too." "please." "Father." "Is there anyone who has not drawn a lot yet?" "Gimmy hasn't gone yet!" "Neither has Darry!" "my apologies." "then." "open your hands." "you have been chosen by the gods." "She won!" "Darry won!" "Gimmy!" "you're right!" "We both won!" "we won!" "We won!" "we won!" "What are you saying?" "take these kids with us? ...some are chosen to be the gods' children and are sent up to the Celestial Lands." "Celestial Lands?" "You mean the surface?" "!" "But that's crazy!" "You can't send these kids there!" "then?" "old-timer." "Bro." "then." "We will conduct our ceremony in the usual manner." "Wait just a damn minute!" "What's one or two more kids running around?" "You don't have to throw them out!" "To be sent up to the Celestial Lands means to be released from all the sorrows of this life and to live together with the gods." "It is the ultimate happiness." "not one bit!" "Hasn't anybody ever considered going up to see what it's really like up there?" "take us there!" "What're the Celestial Lands like?" "It ain't exactly paradise up there!" "We can't drag two kids around with us!" "Why not?" "!" "You're mean!" "Meanie!" "Would you please stop berating our ways every chance you get?" "Excuse me?" "!" "don't try to play the victim here!" "How dare you!" "Mind your tone when speaking to the High Priest!" "Bro." "It's their law here in this village." "It's not like they're doing it because they want to." "all they have to do is STOP doing it!" "Who the hell do you think I am?" "who would rather die than do something he doesn't wanna do!" "people!" "This guy's a fraud who's been feeding you a load of crap!" "Don't fall for it!" "Please stop this!" "What do you know of life in our village?" "you're finally starting to speak my language." "Rossiu!" "Don't resort to violence!" "I don't understand!" "How can these people be messengers of the gods?" "Endure this trial." "The gods are testing us." "kiddo!" "Rossiu!" "The mighty Kamina is ready to take you on!" "man or mouse?" "Man or mouse?" "!" "What the hell?" "!" "It's another Face God!" "I found you!" "Kamina!" "Simon!" "Yoko!" "What do you think you're doing to the Face God?" "The gods will smite you!" "This is getting old..." "Bro!" "Ready!" "Let's do this with style!" "Brotherly Combining!" "Gurren Lagann!" "One Face God is fighting another Face God!" "How can this be?" "!" "You guys down there!" "What're you standing around for?" "!" "You're in the way!" "Get clear!" "Hurry!" "These things are no gods!" "They're the enemy!" "They're the enemy we fight against!" "it's no use!" "These people have believed that Gunmen are gods their whole lives!" "we're gonna kick this thing's ass right in front of them!" "That'll make 'em see sense whether they want to or not!" "you're overdoing it!" "Butt out!" "W-What the...?" "The idol!" "you piece of junk!" "What the hell?" "Father Magin?" "Father Magin!" "old-timer." "why didn't you... that's all." "I myself do not understand what I was doing." "it is time for you to leave." "Don't disturb our village any more than you already have." "Say what?" "!" "Bro!" "What he says is right." "We don't belong here in this village." "not one damn bit." "Perhaps we should tell everyone the truth." "Rossiu?" "do they need to know it?" "This village does not have the resources to sustain a large population." "The first thing I did when I became leader of the village was to set a limit of 50 on the people who may live here." "not even by one." "the village is lost." "that is the one and only truth." "My religion is nothing more than a tool to that end." "Did you also arrange it so that Gimmy and Darry would be chosen?" "because those children have no family." "few would truly grieve for them." "then what about my mother?" "I made my peace with long ago." "too." "But we can't eat this much!" "You mustn't eat it all at once." "Eat it a little at a time and make it last." "Okay!" "Rossiu!" "You mean to go through with this?" "Yes." "I will go with those children. ...there will no longer be any need to be bound by such painful laws." "won't it be easier for you if no one else in the village knows the truth?" "I understand." "would you like to take the holy scriptures with you on your journey?" "Thank you but I..." "I no longer believe." "I thought you knew!" "I cannot read." "Rossiu." "either! ...but I would like you to take it with you." "accept it." "Father." "To Be Continued..."
