Completely unrelated person here. According to the writer... Nia's death and the acceptance of it was completely her choice. She rejected any help Simon would be completely willing to give her, as it is pretty clear that if she had asked he would be completely willing to risk the Universe to the Spiral Nemesis, and decided to die with dignity and no regrets. I do agree that the show was at times perhaps too subtle with her development in the last few episodes, but I think it she was the one that got the most "strength" in them other than Simon. I would have liked to see more scenes of her defying the Anti-Spirals, myself; perhaps a more visually intense psychological battle.

As for the "feminist" idea to her story the other Anon mentioned... I kinda see it. She starts under the wing of her father, decides to become worthwhile for being Nia and nothing else, "rejects" her own status as princess, even when seen as an inferior creature she talks like if she deserves respect and doesn't care what the enemy thinks of her and ultimately dies as a result of her own freedom rather than as a victim.

I don't disagree with you. What I'm saying is that I think the show could have done a better job of showing us that. It was far too easy to watch the end and come away with the impression "well, Nia just couldn't hold on any longer, and Simon didn't want to risk the Spiral Nemesis to bring her back," when if they'd added in just a few scenes exploring Nia's development towards the end their intent would have been much clearer.

I think they did a good job... but you're right in that the majority of the viewers that probably are just watching the show for the PEWPEWMECHALAZERS are truly going to get a wrong idea about the ending. Regardless, I think this was mostly due to Gurren-Lagann's insane pacing. In the interview with Yukari Fukui I read in this Chara-Mel magazine she did mentioned that Nia is getting plenty of new scenes in the second movie... let's cross fingers and hope for the best. :)

I forgot to say 2 things:

-Ignore the other very similar post... it kinda makes no sense.
-The interviewed Yukari Fukui is Nia's VA.
