Kidd Coega
CharacterKidd Coega brings a gunslinger's flair to Team Dai-Gurren, working paired pistols through his Gunman Kidknuckle while his brother Iraak covers the long range. After the timeskip he sports a look fans instantly compare to Lupin III, and he dies in the same charge that claims his brother.
Appearance
Kidd's look shifts across the seven-year gap, and his post-timeskip design is widely noted for how strongly it recalls the master thief Lupin III.
History
Kidd enters the story among the wave of recruits who swell Team Dai-Gurren's ranks, fighting beside his brother Iraak from Episode 7 onward. He serves through the Beastman conflict and into the war against the Anti-Spirals, where the loss of Zorthy Kanai in the campaign's opening deep-space engagement sends the brothers charging out for revenge. Both die in the attempt. The epilogue counts him among the honored dead, a sword raised in his name beside Kamina's and those of the team's other fallen.
