That's funny, I'm the same, which is interesting since so many people prefer Gurren Lagann. I recently tried rewatching Gurren Lagann and had to give up on the series and instead watch the movie that summarizes the story to get through the whole thing.

An Anime that I recently rewatched and still thinkis utterly amazing is Evangelion, but I guess that one isn't considered a classic for no reason.

That's fine. You don't have to like it. We just have different tastes in anime. Odd though. Gurren Lagenn is considered one of the best anime's of all time while Kill la Kill is not. 

I don't think either "deserves" a place among the best animes of all time, though that depends on how big a list you would make, but I found Kill La Kill simply more entertaining.

I think it does. It would depend on how big the list is. I just think the epicness of the series elevated it. Each individual episode kept adding new characters and expanding all the way to the finale. While the first half when they're all kids and everything is friendly and fun; the tone turns in the second half when they are adults and actually having to govern the world and figure how to run things. A bit more serious. 

 

The cross of these tones is one of my favorite aspects of it. Almost like two seperate anime's. 

 

I'd put it in my list. In a top ten it'd probably be somewhere in the higher half 5-8.
