Gurren Lagann and Naruto...

[Sabuto Hayashi]

So, I was watching Gurren Lagann the other day (it's good so far ), and a few things caught my attention.

First of all, don't you think Lord Genome's eyes resemble a certain dojutsu?

Also, Genome pilots a Gunman named Lazengann, as seen below.

In Japanese, L's are pronounced similar to R's, and the name begins to sound awfully familiar to a certain technique...

Did I mention that Genome can use the Spiral Drill? (In Naruto, the Rasengan is also referred to as the Spiralling Sphere).


So, what do you think? Coincidence, inspiration, or plagiarism? Discuss!

nice find

 

[Mudo]

It my just be a very big coincidence.

 

[-Shiro-]

those just couincidenc their completly diffrent anime like black and white

 

[~Puppet Master~]

Nice find, but Rinnegan isn't that old yet, so Naruto might have been inspired by that, but yeah, the rasengan thing is true.

A Conveinent Conincidnece lol.

 

[Hei]

Just a coincidence but really interesting ones

most animes have the same eyes, also spoilers alert the older brother (Forgot name) dies

 

[Skeletor]

I think its all a coincidence
Whole pf Gurren Lagann is based on Drills. No wonder Lord Genome's eyers are in a spiral shape, just like his Gunman Lasengan.

Kamina.
and wtf man? He has already reached where Lord Genome uses his gunman. That means about 6 episodes after Kamina dies.

No worries, I already knew Kamina would die from the start. xd

Wait till you get to episode 24. Everyone starts dying off then!
