In Tenga Toppa Gurren Lagann, there was a part where after they defeated the
beastmen, Rossiu forced everyone to come up to the surface, even those who
didn't want to. Never really fully understood why he did this. After all, if I
recall correctly, Lord Genome already warned them what happens when the
surface population of humans reaches 1 million. A census on those who live
underground doesn't make sense to me. So why did he do this?

Why did Rossiu forced the ones who lived underground to come up to the surface?


I would have to check, but I seem to remember that the trigger was 1 million
total - it does not matter whether the humans are on the surface or
underground, they still count. Keeping humans underground, and under constant
attacks from beastmen, had the effect of capping that number.

And as far as I remember, the thinking was that people underground hampered
the census efforts, thus preventing Rossiu from estimating correctly how far
they were from the limit.
