Franky is so frickin awesome
I can see where grandjedi is coming from. Killing characters that viewers dont care about but other characters do to invoke the literal raw emotion needed for Simon to 'power up' creates a dissonance.
I certainly cared about some of those characters. Sure, they never got a lot of focus but they were all charismatic and were fun to watch. Especially the twins. And they were part of the team for a big chunk of the series.

Opinions and all that but why did you feel it was horrible?
I really hate the meaningless sacrifices of this episode. There's no emotional attachment to them so their deaths only serve as an attempt to up the ante (since Simon can't up the ante himself this episode). If they really wanted us to care about the pointless deaths, they would have killed a more important character. But instead they just weed out the red shirts. Even Yoko and the twin girl got saved from their sacrifices because they were more important.
Which leads to my larger problem with the episode: it was boring. I get having a calmer/despair episode, but the way the episode dealt with that depended entirely on how much you cared about the red shirts dying. Since I didn't care about it at all, I just found the episode boring: which is the worst crime a show like Gurren Lagann can commit.
Thankfully, for those same reasons, I like the next 3 episodes a lot more.
Roger never says the words "One Piece".
Correct. That shit was only in the 4Kids dub.
The significance of the name "One Piece" is still unknown.
Kind of spoilery.
Though I do like the theory that it unites the world as one piece.

Usopp makes a pretty good punching bag

I agree that its a standard emotionally manipulative technique but I don't think that makes the episode terrible. Also it's not like these characters haven't been with us for most of the show even if they don't have the development of the main cast.
