* BigNameFan: Captain Osaka is a good example of this. Double K is ''very'' famous in the Gurren Lagann fandom, having been discussed briefly in ''The Escapist'' magazine, inspired several cosplay groups, and generally having been enjoyed by more or less everyone in the English-speaking fandom (and even outside of it, since it's damn entertaining and funny in its own right, and one doesn't at all ''need'' to have watched the anime to like it).

** Kittan's entrance has parallels with Kamina's as a clever way to put their differences in evidence right off the bat.
