Simon, the young boy who nobody thought would be good for anything, besides digging, has saved the universe from the anti-spiral. Once again Simon is the savior of this world, but shortly after his victory he left leaving behind the core drill and his famous gunmen Gurren Lagann and he disappeared into the world. For once war and chaos seemed to be far away and that peace was finally endless, but they were wrong. 30 years after Simon's disappearance New Kamina city was attacked by an organization known as the Immortals. The Immortals believed that the government should be an empire and that the words and beliefs of the leader should be law (absolutely no exceptions). When their idea was shot down by the citizens, the leader of the Immortals Kiayata decided to take the government by force and so, they attacked the city in an all out battle for control. At first it seemed like an easy victory for the government, but Kiayata was saving his gunmen as a secret weapon. This mysterious gunmen's power was so unrestrained that it destroyed every single other gunmen until only Gurren Lagann and its new pilots were all that was left. They fought valiantly, but to no avail. This evil new gunmen completely destroyed Gurren by slashing it in half. The impact of it managed to kill both pilots and Lagann and the core drill disappeared immediately after Gurren's destruction. With their line of defense gone, the Immortals were able to easily overthrow the government and in the process Kiayata killed Rossiu. Kiayata became the emperor of his new empire and locked away anyone who apposed it. Now he sends out his gunmen soldiers to conquer parts of the world. The people are now enslaved believing that Lagann was destroyed and that Simon abandoned this world, but some believe that one day someone will find Lagann and bring an end to this cruel empire.
