After making everyone excited with the reveal of the cast’s awesome costumes, the live action musical adaptation of super robot anime, Tenggen Toppa Gurren Lagann has finally been shown over at the Zenrousai Hall Space Zero theater in Tokyo.

Though the cast’s costume was well detailed enough to earn praises from some of the most hardcore Gurren Lagann fans, the set itself was pretty “simple” as described by Japanese anime website, animeanime.jp which was present in one of the shows.

The show featured several highlights like a very romantic moment between Kamina and Yoko, as well a few scenes with the series’ mechas.

As this was a Gurren Lagann play, it also featured plenty of action like sword fights, as well as a few emotional moments on stage.

The actors pretty much gave the play their all. Rikuhei Fuji, who plays the role of main antagonist, Lordgenome, he worked hard to stay in “fighting form” for the stage to fully give a performance worthy of such a powerful character from the time of his first appearance during Act II until the play’s curtain call.

The play was quite a success as the play was able to excite the fans, just like the original anime by Gainax, which also supervised the whole thing. The actors gave a very enthusiastic performance and their energy seems to have been transmitted to the audience as well. The play will continue over at the Zenrousai Hall Space Zero theater in Tokyo until tomorrow, October 26, 2014.
