Background Information
- - - - - - -

In the world of Gurren Lagann, humans have been forced to retreat from the surface world and now live underground in tribes and colonies. For many years they have lived underground, digging and expanding their territory while living under the threat of being crushed by earthquakes or worse yet, the Beastmen; athromorphic animals who walk and talk like humans do, but subjegate them into slavery and poverty.

Yoko is the series' lead female character. A young woman from the village of Littner. She has considerable combat experience even before her chance meeting with the series leads Kamina and Simon. In the first episode, a Gunmen (a mechanized robot which is piloted by a Beastman) crashes through the roof of Jiha village and prepares to attack the populace when Yoko, who has been tracking the Gunmen, rappels down a cliff whilst firing her electromagnetic rifle. Her solo attack disables the Gunmen, giving Kamina and the villagers time to seek safety. Kamina, however, chooses instead to make advances at Yoko and initially diminishes her combat qualifications on the grounds of being a woman, yet acknowledges "that lady's got spunk!".

She decides to accompany both Simon and Kamina on their quest. Despite their constant banter Yoko soon becomes infatuated with Kamina. She is also the object of Simon's naive crush until he discovers the two kissing. Yoko is stated to be the same age as Simon, but it is heavily implied that her home-town measures time differently, as all humans live underground and might have a differing amount of days in a year. She is very mature for her age and is the most rational member of the group. She acts as an almost Mother/Big Sister to Simon, and is consist in helping to keep him motivated and confident.
