And this thread is making me glad I didn't see TTGL before KLK--or should I say, I appreciate the perspective I had going into both of these shows. Now they're 2 of my favorites.
I'd give em both 8/10

Very good ending, but in the end it did feel rushed. I think the series could have used an extra 10ish episode throughout to fix pacing issues, and it feels likely they made some stuff up as they went along. Good series overall, and I like how they give enough room for a possible sequel.
I'd agree that Gurren Lagann was overall a much better show, and Kill la Kill didn't save anime, but shit was still fun to watch on a Thursday night with a bag of popcorn and that's all I really wanted or expected from it. I think the show suffered from overhype more than anything.
1. YES. I would pay for a Non la Non dub. I want to hear Nonon VA say SKINNY DIPPING
2. Haha, no. Even with the noticeably better animation the past few episodes, the fights still have been sloppy as hell. In retrospect, I'm amazed that they ever managed to do the Nonon and Battle Fields Trip fight so well. Every other fight in the show has been pretty garbage.
lol 10 more? we would have been watching a ppt presentation
I did enjoy the finale though. Good show, but I think it could have been better if the middle wasn't so boring.
If anything, I feel they should have cut it down to 13 episodes, make for a tighter experience overall. Show felt bloated to me at points.
A fitting end for a big stupid yet super enjoyable show. I think some people's expectations were too high/expecting something else but it did everything wanted it to do. Like it has been said not everything has to be deep and having multi meaning and twist or dark endings. The world is big enough for bug dumb shows.
Even in the last episode where they actually had money the fights were still dumb slapfests ended by random asspulls.

Trigger trolled the shit out of everyone by making Nui kill herself.

Currently watching TTGL, and I'm similarly glad that I saw KLK first so that I wasn't tempted to infest the thread with TTGL comparisons every episode. Loved the finale. Had a great time. All I was really looking for, in the end.

Didn't someone say they'd be pretty pissed if
Nui merges with the Original Life Fiber?
Eh. I wasn't like expecting anything serious or deep about that ending. They never wavered from what the show was intended to be, and that stayed consistent throughout. But it still felt..anticlimatic. And that's something I didn't want. I think they could have been big, stupid and dumb, and still made it more epic.
I dunno. I did enjoy the ending. But I still feel kind of let down by how flat it all felt. *shrugs*

During the epilogue, Gamagoori holding flowers for Mako is too adorable for words.

Agreed. I liked this but TTGL has a better ending.
So what is it then? Is anime dead or alive?
I vote for zombie. A cute zombie.
Do it Toonami/Adult Swim/CN
Do iiiittttttt

The scissor blades
did nothing in the end. What was even the point if everything could regenerate?
I was wondering the same thing. It's like they realized the scissor blades would make things too easy once Ryuuko got them both, so their decision was to make them worthless. And I mean that. The only thing they EVER DID was cut off Nui's arms. And that was neutralized into oblivion.
I dunno. Guess they existed just to look cool.
DEAD, ahahahaha!

As somebody who did not enjoy TTGL in the slightest (well specifically the second half), KLK was the biggest surprise of 2013/2014. Such a treat, definitely my favorite show so far this year. I'll miss it a lot. Ending was really satisfying.

I;m not entirely sure how I feel about this show. In the beginning I love the engergy, but about a quarter of the way through they seemed to have lost steam. It had some really cool moments, but I felt like there were too many times where something happened because the script said so and not because it was a natural progression of plot. Not only that, but there weren't any really awesome fights. A lot of it was obscured or just talking. Visually, the show was awesome looking and I loved the music. Just so much potential that, I felt, never lived up to expectations.
Also, I really, really wanted a proper Nui fight.
Yeah, I still don't get why so many people are saying
Ryuko x Mako is this canon thing. I mean, realistically, they didn't commit one way or the other and left it open to satisfy all fans. But I took the whole Mako thing as a shopping date, and not a date date, hence why Satsuki was with them as well.
The fact that it shows Gama about to ask her out, is more of an indication towards that being something then Ryuko and Mako (which seems more like friends). I would have preferred Mako x Ryuko. But eh. I didn't see that in the finale.

Cause one of the Mako montage thing had Mako and Ryuko kissing when Mako was talking about the date
Because Mako asked her out while kissing with her (twice). It stands to reason that their "date" is romantic in nature, rather than being friendly. This image set + image should really emphasize that point.
I just don't think that gama's attempt to ask her out would suddenly nullify everything that happened prior.

Yuri fans gonna take what they can get to fuel their fantasies.
