Gurren-Lagann is not a show full of characters with major flaws. They're all light-hearted and quirky, all of them are a representation of a single idea and the only thing holding them together is the fact that they are fighting for their own identity. But no, they're not "flawed characters". I find your whole rant illogical and unfair. Kamina's flaw wasn't what killed him, Kamina's flaw was always lampshaded by Simon's strength. Kamina died due to back luck, due to being on the wrong place at the wrong time. That's all there is to it. He wasn't killed due to his bravado or due to lacking care... why would they expect Thymilph machine to attack so suddenly with such a strong weapon? Viral's flaw never got anyone killed, unless you consider being "weak" a flaw rather than the lack of a skill.

How you say "being molested by a creepy old armadillo" was only for the sake of plot exposition is also a selective and biased use of adjectives. By such logic Kamina was only killed for plot development, Viral's struggle when questioning the nature of beastmen was also merely plot exposition, Rossiu's growing to be like the priest in his village was only theme delivery and I could go on with plenty of different stories. About why it failed to affect Nia... she was affected, she would have stayed heavily depressed if it wasn't for Simon. You're overlooking the reason their relationship became the core of the second, and later fourth, arcs... because they helped each other.
