I'm Josh "unangbangkay" Tolentino, and this is my cry for attention.
I'm also the News EditorJapanator. Come visit, and see me gush about things not directly related to video games. Or not. But hey, diversifying your interest in me is definitely something I would encourage.
I'll try to keep this quick, since I don't want to keep you from scrolling down and thereby improving your life immensely.
Someone traced the "eyecatch" pictures from Gurren Lagann (the ones that bookend the commercial breaks) and Persona-fied them, then put up slideshows cued to "'Libera Me' From Hell".
That's all there is to say, really.
Oh, the first video is the best, the second is kind of a rough draft version, using different eyecatches and different characters. You will love them both.
Note: The videos reveal characters, personae, and bosses, including the final boss, so SPOILER WARNING.
Watch out for Mara!
Double Teddie!
The original links are on Nico Nico Douga, here and here. If you have an account and know your kana, I recommend you watch those, because the comment roll is AMAZING.
As a service to the poor fools who can't watch this because of spoilers, I provide some consolation cheesecake.*
*I've noticed that my last several posts needed the "this has breasts" tag. Is this a positive development?
I can't watch these due to my lack of progress in Persona 4 (haven't played it since I got my ass kicked by the boss in Yukiko's castle)...
But thanks for the cheesecake, I'm almost afraid to ask where you find these images.
Um, they just took my favourite anime of all time, plus one of my favourite games of all time, and fused them together. Thank you for showing me this, unangbangkay.
@Unangbangkay: it's not even the difficulty as much as the lack of time. Ironically, it was my friend's copy of Nocturne that pulled me away from the game. I know that as soon as I start playing again I'll get sucked in, but I just need some impetus to stop the constant rotation of inFamous and SFIV.
Damn that's pretty good, I love TTGL, but I'd love this even I'd played Persona.

What Garison said, it literally is awesome. If you're looking for more anime check out Death-Note and Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, if all else fails you can't go wrong with Cowboy Bebop.
I haven't even started P4 yet but since I have the player data book, I didn't really spoil myself much anyway. Looks really awesome though. Nice nice find.
Does this mean I actually have to try and track down episodes of Gurren Lagann? I ended up finding and watching all the episodes of Darker than Black because of the Devil Summoner MAD.
Megaten fans seem to be really hardcore to make this kind of stuff though. Well...not just make it, but make it as good too.
Ok I have never played Persona but I fucking love Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, and even though I could have seen some fucking serious spoilers I am already much more interested.

You're not too far in. I recommend you restart on easy mode and grab yourself a guide. It's not shameful at all.
nah, it's sweat. It's part of the artist's bathhouse series. I'll just text-link it to be sure.
God I never thought I would become like this, damn you Japan.
But I would never let Chie cry, she deserves hugs. Except when she is all sticky like that.
But this is freakin' amazing. Having the persona's make it x1000 more bad ass.
ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWA!
WILL OFFER MONIES AND GAMES
Maybe I should check it out.

Oh and @Magnalon, what Justice said. In fact the 3 others he listed are my three favorites, so there you go I guess.
check it out. Surely worth a watch.

Consider me officially baited into the series.
Dude TTGL is the last anime I saw since Shaman King and it makes you cum adrenaline. It has too much badassery in it that it blows minds.
The second season was really lame in my opinion, though.
There's a second season?!
well, you know, the after years when they face the anti-spirals. The final battle was epic, but the whole bunch of episodes in that time was MEH!
Dammit, just when my nose recovered from Angie.
Like a whole blog post of it?
