->''The funny thing is that it was a political move that I honestly think would've made some sort of sense in our cynical world but in [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Gurren Lagann's]] insane Universe it ended up making a fool out of Rossiu. In a world like ours this would be an undesirable and cruel, yet intelligent play. A display of utilitarian ethics that not many would argue would have an overall positive effect on the city's sociological state. But in Gurren Lagann, where you have things like [[AppliedPhlebotinum Spiral Power]], the improbable is possible and it is actually a logical thing to go for broke and try to save everyone and everything. And this is what Rossiu didn't understand. He was a realist living in an idealist world, sort of a mirror image of idealists living in brutal settings that we see in other works of fiction. You know that character from that story that you love whose ideals were unrealistically positive and not fit for the rigid world they lived in? [[note]]Scenes with [[Series/GameOfThrones Ned Stark]] and [[LightNovel/FateZero Lancer]] are being shown during this sentence[[/note]] Think of Rossiu as the opposite of that kind of character.''
