Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: Guren-Hen Translated in English as "Gurren Lagann The Movie: Childhood's End", is a spin off movie based on its original animated television series Gurren Lagann. Following the story of the first 15 episodes of the television series, Guren-Hen offers a fresh and shortened take on the Japanese epic. Not offering much new footage, the movie -to fans of the show- doesn't offer a lot other than sentimentality.
