==Controversies==
Last October 2010, the conservative group from South Chevron, No To Sexual Activity Exposure, disappointed to GP-NET for airing an episode of Bloodheart : Devotion wherein there's a scene between Gurren and Akane doing a sexual activity, thus it is proven untrue. GP-NET and C.G. Comics, comic carrier of the series, states that: "there's no truth about the scene between Gurren and Akane doing any sexual activity. The group misunderstood their complaint, because they think of a scene between Gurren and Akane a sexual activity, thus it is only a love scene between Gurren and Akane and no sexual activity there."
