Overview

Tengen Toppa Dai-Gurren is a Tengen Toppa Gunmen that materializes during the last battle against the Granzeboma in the second film, The Lights in the Sky are Stars. Its design borrows from both the Dai-Gurren and the Super Galaxy Dai-Gurren, and it even flies its own Team Dai-Gurren banner woven entirely from Spiral Power. It is the tenth and final Tengen Toppa Gunmen to arrive after the Granzeboma shatters the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, and it is eventually spent when it joins the others to build Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.

Function

The machine is driven by the Tengen Toppa Spiral Engine and hefts the original Dai-Gurren's prow as though it were a blade. Its armaments include Leeron's Probability Alteration Missiles, which he claims can block the Anti-Spiral's power to alter probability inside the Super Spiral Space, along with a pair of drill-shaped Super Dimensional Anchors used to seal the Granzeboma in that space with the team. There is also the move Dayakka dubs the I've Got The Best Wife In The Universe Swing, in which the Gunmen uses those anchors to whirl the Granzeboma around and hurl it into a galaxy.

Notable Users

A full complement of seven pilots crews Tengen Toppa Dai-Gurren, each riding in a personal Lagann: Leeron, Dayakka, Gabal, Leyte, Tetukan, Cybela, and Artenborough. While the rest of Team Super Galaxy Dai-Gurren pours fire onto the Granzeboma, this Gunmen catches it off guard and hammers it from behind with a volley of Probability Alteration Missiles, then loops its two anchors around the enemy to trap it in the Super Spiral Space with everyone else, before finally lending itself to the formation of Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.
