Japanese name:

グレンラガン

The Gurren Lagann, the titular mech of the series, is piloted jointly by two pilots for most of the story, with the Lagann portion always operated by the series' main protagonist Simon and the Gurren piloted by Kamina initially Spoiler!and then various other characters after his death. The mech was originally formed as a hotblooded response from Kamina to the Enki's initial two-headed configuration.

Its powers and fighting capabilities are almost entirely based on its ability to generate drills of greatly varying size, shape and usage from multiple points on its body. Over the course of the series, Gurren Lagann produced dozens of different uses for its drills, ranging from projectiles and missiles to shields, water screws, and various melee applications. The most powerful attack seen used by Gurren Lagann is the Giga Drill Breaker and its variants, where the pilot forms a huge amount of spiral energy into an enormous drill (or multiple drills) bigger than the mech itself. This special trait, and its status as a fused machine (with two exceptionally spirited pilots), makes it one of the most powerful entities of its size seen in the series.

Its additional abilities shown in the series include a durable energy shield, which can deflect energy blasts even at short range, the ability to wield the sunglasses on the Gurren's chest as a melee weapon (a sword or boomerang usually), a short-term regenerative function which can restore accumulated damage for the duration of the Gurren and the Lagann's union and the power to rip open a wormhole in space to travel great distances.
