So, I've recently been going through the Gurren Lagann movies and anime again, mainly the Anti-Spiral War portion of the story, and I feel like there are a few feats worth making a CRT over. This revision will mainly be focusing on the first three forms of GL: Gurren Lagann, Arc-Gurren Lagann, and Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann, as well as why those three Gunmen should scale to the Anti-Spiral and the Tengen Toppa Gunmen's High 2-A, likely High 1-C rating. With that said, let's get to it.

Gurren Lagann
Gurren Lagann is definitely the most straight forward and concrete High 2-A, likely High 1-C Gunmen. By far, it has the best feats out of every other mech in the series, putting it above even TTGL and STTGL, which I doubt is any secret to anyone, but might as well mention them here since GL doesn't have a profile here.

So GL's first feat is being integrated with the Extradimensional Labyrinth absorbed by Simon's Core Drill. This is basically one of the things that facilitated the formation of TTGL, and given that the labyrinth would logically scale to the dimensionality of the Anti-Spiral's Super Spiral Universe, which is considered 5 to 11-dimensional here, Gurren Lagann should already be 5D to 11D.

The second and third feats are GL straight up matching the Grand Zamboa and Super Zamboa. In both the anime and the second movie, it was able to deflect the former's drills and withstand being hit by some of them (although it ended up losing an arm). Meanwhile, in the second movie, it also straight up matched and broke through the Super Zamboa's Anti-Spiral Giga Drill Break.

The last thing would be scaling to Lagann, which destroyed the Anti-Spiral in the anime.

Arc-Gurren Lagann
Welp, this is where the interesting part really starts. The rest of this CRT is more iffy than the last one for sure, but that said, I do believe Arc-Gurren Lagann has the feats to scale to High 2-A/High 1-C, even if just as possible ratings.

The first feat for AGL starts all the way from the Mugann's invasion of Earth, when the Gunmen was first formed. We see AGL unleash it's fully-powered attack, the "Space-Time Shattering Burst Spinning Punch". What it does is basically send a giant Mugann-class ship through the fabric of space-time and to the end of the continuum, where it exploded. Now, most people would just consider this Space-Time Manipulation, but honestly, I don't see why. It's heavily implied to be a brute strength feat. For one, it's not something along the lines of piercing through space-time or whatever, but it's literally a punch being so strong, it caused the thing which was punched to literally crack space-time. Plus, the Muggan itself seemingly wasn't even affected by being sent through the fabric of space-time, it mainly exploded thanks to AGL's punch. Furthermore, this is supported by Team Dai-Gurren being in awe of Simon's "unbelievable power", with Leeron stating that this feat showcases "the awakening of Spiral power".

Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann
Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann is as interesting as Arc. The first and most obvious thing is that SGGL is far superior to AGL, most evidently shown when it easily bypassed the Ashtanga-class ship's forcefield, which not even AGL could get past, and destroyed it.

It was also stated that its engine was generating power on-par with "a galaxy about to be born". There are two ways of going about this, one being that it's 3-C, and the other being scaling it to mega-galaxies, i.e. High 2-A, likely High 1-C. As explained by the Anti-Spiral, galaxies in TTGL have the potential grow to such an extent that they become mega-galaxies, eventually causing the Spiral Nemesis, which is this creation-ending event. We also see that the galaxies from the Super Spiral Universe can harm Tengen Toppa Gunmen like the Yoko-W-Tank when used as shurikens by the Grand Zamboa. The latter scaling would be more consistent with Arc-Gurren Lagann being tier 2/1.

Finally, SGGL was able to severely damage the Ashtanga using an omni-directional attack that reached every Planck instant 10 seconds into the past and 8 into the future, with each attack connecting.

Every Gunmen
This is the part that every single form of Gurren Lagann should scale to, and it goes back to the battle against the Grand and Super Zamboa. Let's start with the anime:

When TTGL and the Grand Zamboa hit their final, big blows on each other, we see the other forms of Gurren Lagann, starting with Super Galaxy, make their way out of TTGL and head towards the Anti-Spiral, but Mr. Grand Zamboa has other plans and intercepts each mech with its drills. The interesting part about this is that [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeDynRhPEjI&feature=youtu.be&t=382 the mechs actually do withstand the drills, sustaining less damage than GL. They also are still mobile after being hit with them], and weren't... you know, completely destroyed like how a Tier 5/3 would be be a High 2-A/High 1-C attack, which says a lot about their durability.

The next thing is in the second movie. After STTGL's drill is destroyed, every other form of Gurren Lagann takes turns trying to stop the Super Zamboa's Giga Drill Break. We see that each form was able to hold back the attack for a few seconds, only having their Giga Drills broken, but still surviving (except for AGL, which also lost its head, but besides that it was still in one piece). We get a better view of the damage dealt when GL throws Lagann at the Anti-Spiral, and it's like I said, the Gunmen mainly just had their Giga Drills broken.

Conclusions
Gurren Lagann: It's incredibly straight foward, really. Gurren Lagann being High 2-A, likely High 1-C at its peak has it being integrated with the Extradimensional Labyrinth, overpowering the Super Zamboa, deflecting and withstanding the Grand Zamboa's attacks, and scaling to Lagann, which destroyed the Anti-Spiral.

Arc-Gurren Lagann: Given how OBW treats Gurren Lagann's cosmology, I'm not completely sure what tier it'd be (or if this will go through, but, we'll see), but it should probably be High 2-A, likely High 1-C given the number of dimensions in the cosmology.

Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann: All things considered, Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann should be High 2-A, likely High 1-C scaling to Arc-Gurren Lagann and potentially being somewhat comparable to Tengen Toppa Gunmen.

Every Gunmen: Based on briefly holding back the Super Zamboa's Giga Drill, as well as surviving attacks from both of the Anti-Spiral's mechs, pretty much every form of Gurren Lagann should at least be somewhat comparable and thus High 2-A, likely High 1-C (though in separate keys, like "Post-Infinity Big Bang Storm" or "Post-Apotheosis").
