A japanese anime produced by GAINAX in 2007. Has achieved great fame on the internet in a short time. Thought the show itself was popular and overall very good, the sheer level of epic and manlyness caused many watchers to hype the series.

No one is exactly sure why this is, but Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann is said to be the true definition of the term "epic". Viewers are advised to be cautious.

Whether or not you decide to watch the anime, it's important to note that if you try it out, you will never look at sunglasses the same way you used to.

Sunglasses, real men, half naked chicks, galaxy sized robots, epic speeches, from boy to man themes, identity problems. This is the recipe of TENGEN TOPPA GURREN LAGANN.

"What the hell do you think this is!?"

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
