Yoko Littner

Yoko Littner (ヨーコ・リットナー, Yōko Rittonā?) is a girl from Jeeha's neighboring village of Littner(Rittona in the Japanese version) who had been chasing the Gunmen that crashed into Jeeha village during the events of episode 1. She wields an extensive range of firearms, most frequently of which is a long range sniper rifle modeled after the Barrett M82. Although she is of the same age group as Simon, she is very mature for her age and she is one of the most rational members of the group. Despite initially always badmouthing Kamina for his reckless behavior, it did not take long for her to confess her feelings to him. She was also Simon's love interest until he discovered that she was in love with Kamina.

From there,she helps Simon by piloting Gurren for Rossiu. She does her best but when Viral attacks,she opens her hatch to shoot which Viral then hits Gurren-Lagann causing her to be knocked out. Simon saves her and she watches him fight Viral one on one remarking that he can pilot alone. Cydomander however holds her hostage,but when Dai-Gurren attacks, Simon saves her again. She then asks Simon if he knew that she liked Kamina, to which he smiled and said yes. From there one she helps Simon by advising him. She orders him to go on and defeat LordGenome and helps by fighting against the Ganmen.

Before Anti-Spiral War arc
After the Beastman war, Yoko was around to help Kamina City get established. She leaves because she feels that she has no place in Government or Politics,despite Rossiu and Simon attempts to beg her to stay. She eventually left for a small island where she became a teacher under the name of Yomako.

Anti-Spiral war arc
Despite being a teacher and not usually being involved in the affairs, she hears about Simon's trail and gets angry by Rossiu's decision. As the island is being evacuated, two Beastman attack and hold a little girl hostage. Yoko is forced to grab her rifle and change into a similar outfiet to her orginal. She defeats the two Beastmen,while lecturing her class that violence and stealing is wrong, and decides to go save Simon. She shoots at the Anti-Spiral Nia before she flees. She frees Simon and Viral and helps them by piloting the Dayakkaiser. She helps Simon by fighting along side of him and helps protect the Arc-Gurren. When Simon decides to go Nia, Yoko goes as well,supporting a new outfit (much to Kittan's surprise). She helps the members of team Dai-Gurren by holding out till Simon can transform the Chouginga Dai-Gurren. When the group returns to the ship and it gets dragged down into the dark sea, Yoko, Kittan, Gimmy and Darry go out and destroy the Anti-Spiral ships. When the missle to destroy the Death Spiral Machine fails, she decides to go and destroy it but Kittan goes instead, kissing her before he leaves. When Kittan goes out and dies, she is shown crying. She takes one of the gunner seats when Simon attempts to destroy the fleet of ships but, like everyone else,is trapped in the Space Time labyrinth. In her dream, she is a bounty hunter and a teacher, who is revealed to be the best shot in the galaxy, a super model, and married to Kittan. She, however, reaches forward and shuts off the screen, thanking Kamina and heading off to help Simon. She appears as one of Simon's drills and takes a potion on the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. She appears after the final battle at Simon's and Nia's marriage. When Nia fades away, she is shocked but maintains a cool attitude. Right before Simon leaves, she tosses him the ring.
