Why It Rocks: If Gurren Lagann was a celebration of mecha shows like Mobile Suit Gundam, Kill La Kill stands as Studio Trigger’s celebration flagship magical girl shows like Sailor Moon. The plot of Kill La Kill plays out like Bruce Lee’s Game of Death where its main character, Ryūko Matoi, must battle against her school’s toughest fashionistas to find out who murdered her father. At the top of the pile, sipping on her morning tea, is the domineering Satsuki Kiryūin, the head honcho of the academy.
