Summary
Simon (シモン Shimon?) (pronounced like "Simone" or "sea-moan" in English, and "Shimon" in Japanese), also known as Simon the Digger (Anahori Shimon in Japanese), is the main protagonist of the anime and manga series, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. He begins the story as a short, unassuming and lonely young boy, but grows up into a commanding and well-loved man. One day during the digging of a new tunnel, Simon discovers a small drill-shaped object that periodically glows. Later that day, he unearths a large "face" in the ground, which he shows to Yoko and Kamina after Jeeha Village is attacked by a large Gunmen. The face is revealed to be a miniature Gunmen, and the object Simon dug up the key to starting it up. With the aid of this mech, which Kamina names "Lagann", Simon destroys the large Gunmen attacking Jeeha and rises to the surface world. He became known as a legendary hero who overcame impossible odds both personal and universal and now stands eternally as a beacon for the good of all man and Spiral kind.
Powers and Stats
Dimensionality: 3D, 11D (Super Spiral Universe)
Threat Level: Wolf, Dragon with Spiral Power || Wolf, Maoh with Spiral Power || Omega
Powers and Abilities:
Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Energy Manipulation (Is a Spiral lifeform), Weapon Mastery, Aura, Reactive Evolution (Can constantly progress and evolve during a fight)
Same as before but higher, including Resistance to Electricity Manipulation
Same as before, including also Self-Sustenance (At least Type 1), Higher-Dimensional Existence (Type 1, integrated with the space-time of the multiverse ranging from 10 to 11-dimensional including the temporal dimension, thus Simon as well is intergrated with his entire selfs from all points of time in the multiverse), Higher Dimensional Manipulation, Reality Warping, Creation, Pocket Reality Manipulation (Created the Super Spiral Universe by merging all possibilities in the multiverse, a thought-space where anything can be formed with just thought), Acausality (Types 2 and 4, is an integration all possibilities of himself in the multiverse whether on the past, the present, and the future. The team Dai-Gurren have broken through cause, effect, and fate, that even when trapped, their feelings will open the gate, and they will decide their own path), Non-Corporeal, Abstract Existence (Type 1, his true essence is materialized emotion. "Emotion" is transcendent of time and space; heavens and dimensions, it is a subset of Spiral Power which is the underpinning of the Universe that symbolizes everything, both fundamental and universal), Non-Physical Interaction (Can interact with thoughts, feelings, emotions and can physically harm and kill abstract beings like the Anti-Spiral), Immortality (Type 8, can always reform himself as long as the Super Spiral Universe exists), Regeneration Negation (Mid-Godly, prevents the Anti-Spiral from regenerating), Probability Manipulation, Durability Negation, Invulnerability Negation (Far superior to Kittan who passively avoid the occurrence of failure as small as 0%. Can fight the Anti-Spiral despite of 0% winning percentage on their universe and should be comparable to Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann which can ignore conventional durability by negating its enemy's chances of blocking which was shown to be effective against the Granzeboma's invulnerability due to their probability nature), Spatial Manipulation, BFR (Upscaling from Arc-Gurren Lagann, which punched a Mugann so hard, it literally caused a crack in space-time, sending the Mugann to the far end of the space-time continuum), Quantum Manipulation, Blood Manipulation, Transmutation (Type 4, could turn his own blood to a a fully fuctional drill made of iron, and since Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann can absorb energy on a quantum level, Simon should be able to transmute on a similar level), Forcefield (Scales from Bio-Computer Lordgenome and the Gurren Laganns), Power Bestowal (Gives Team Dai-Gurren capability to resist the Extradimensional Labyrinth), Resurrection (Complete, in the end of the series, Simon has now the power to resurrect whoever died in the series if wants them to return to life), Resistance to BFR, Mind Manipulation, Power Nullification (Could escape the Extradimensional Labyrinth), Gravity Manipulation, Spatial Manipulation and Time Manipulation (Far more durable than the Super Galaxy Dai-Gurren, which can withstand the Death Spiral Field’s ultra-compressed space for a period of time. Scales to the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann which has a power greater than the time and dimension), Probability Manipulation (Can kill the Anti-Spiral)
Physical Strength: Wall level striking strength || Wall level striking strength || Hyper Dimensional+ level striking strength (Fought the Anti-Spiral on foot)possibly infinite (has an incalculable amount of spiral power, infinitely more powerful than its previous version)
Attack Potency: Wall, Island+ with Spiral Power (Comparable to Gurren Lagann. Defeated Lordgenome) || Wall (Fought with Viral), at least Continent with Spiral Power, likely far higher (Should be comparable to Gurren Lagann. Capable to pilot Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann) || Hyper Dimensional+ (Integrated with every possible universes of every possible variations of himself in the multiverse, which are infinite in number, corresponding to an 11-dimensional brane multiverse), higher with Infinity Big Bang Storm absorbed (An infinite Big Bang with a power equivalent to the creation of the Anti-Spiral's universe, a universe which manifold between the 10 and 11-dimensional membranes that make up a complex manifold 11-dimensional spacetime, and implied to be infinite in size. Defeated the Anti-Spiral)possibly infinite
Durability: Wall (Tanked punched from Kamina), Island+ with Spiral Power (Tanked hits from Lordgenome) || Wall, at least Continent with Spiral Power, likely far higher || Hyper Dimensional+ (Is an integration of the Extradimensional Labyrinth. Tanked the Infinity Big Bang Storm for a short time), higher with Infinity Big Bang Storm absorbed (Tanked blows from the Anti-Spiral and survived the destruction of the Anti-Spiral's universe)possibly infinite
Speed: Unknown with at least FTE reaction speed (Reacted a punch from Kamina. Capable to piloted Gurren Lagann. Kept up with Lordgenome) || At least FTE (Kept up with Viral. Capable to piloted Gurren Lagann) || At least TransUniversalx, likely higher (Tens to a hundred quintillion times faster than light. Traversed between universes with sheer speed and kept up with the Anti-Spiral)possibly omnipresent (should have the same abilities as anti spiral)
Intelligence: Above Average (Skilled leader and experienced fighter), likely far higher upon merging with the Extradimensional Labyrinth (Shares all the experiences he had/has/will have across all the multiverse, which there's an infinite number of consciousnesses)almost omniscient (could beat anti spiral from evolution)
Stamina: Very High (Can fight continuously even if severely wounded, Kamina brought himself back from death for a few moments via will power) || Very High, likely Nigh Limitless (Higher than before, by preserving his fighting spirit, his Spiral energy will keep increasing logarithmically via reactive evolution) || Limitless
Range: Melee || Melee || Hyper Dimensional+
Weakness: None notable
Key: Teppelin || Anti-Spiral War (Part 1) || Super Spiral Universe
Arsenal
Standard Equipment: Core Drill (A small drill which channels Spiral Power which he uses to pilot Lagann)
