Ah yes the one number leading cause of STALE JOKES in gurren-lagann.

Yoko is going to die friendless and alone like Weird Al Yankovich

DO NOT WANT! Seriously, they just had to make this couple near the end of the show, Yoko is such a whore.

y is she a whore, it's been, what, ten years since Kamina died? not to mention: HE kissed her

She's forever a virgin so it doesn't matter ;_;

Even if Kittan raped her, people would still call Yoko a whore. Plus- she didn't give shit about him so drop it...

I'll be blasphemous but, I loved this moment, Kittan's only bravado was so much better-placed than any of Kamina's antics.

And if anyone does remember, Kamina went down just after such an event. So I guess calling Yoko a whore is a bit misplaced =/

didn't she dream of marrying him in her alternate reality? i think she liked them both.

I'm pretty sure that was just an opinion.

But yes, she did. She dreamt of marrying Kittan and moving on from Kamina.

And yes, Kamina was just the poster boy for the group. He didn't particularly DID ANYTHING, other than open his mouth and flex around, looking pretty.

Oh sure, because inspiring a rebel uprising by force of personality alone isn't worth putting on your resume. Humans didn't even know they could pilot ganmen until Kamina came along and started kicking ass and hamming things up.

Very well said on Kamina's behalf, Comartemis!!

And I have to admit, even if it's been ten or more years and she wants to move on... Seeing this pairing makes my heart hurt... >___<

It's dubious if that can be considered a pairing at all... I don't think Kittan could ever evoke the same passion and love in Yoko. In all- she just owes him and that's it. If it makes you feel beter, those are the the characters relations as officially seen:
Pre time-skip:
Yoko<-(Love returned 10x over)♥->Kamina (10倍返しの恋)
Post time-skip:
Yoko<-(Love)->Kamina
Kittan<-(Rivals)->Kamina
Kittan-(Love?)-Yoko
You can interpret it as you whish, but Yoko had more than one occasion to kiss him- and she refused them both. Looks like she has Kamina stamped all over her heart.

Why is it so hard for most anime fans to understand that people can fall in love again after someone they cared about died and not be a whore. :/
I can honestly say I did wish Gainax went with the original plan, though, of having her fall in love with a teacher that wouldnt have died if only for the sake of her as a character not having to go through that again. But to me at least I think she had feelings for Kittan or at the very least wanted the chance at a future with someone.

Pairing wars over an overrated plot device, boobs, and a tertiary stepping stone?
