I say it's debatable since both can get to outer, but I'm leaning towards Unicron thanks to corruption, and that he could probably process and turn Gurren Lagann into his own slave, and could attack Simon's soul (if you equalize Sparks as souls, not sure about this one though).

I’m pretty sure the worst that Dark Energon has done to humans is make them sick like what happened to Raph. Also, since Simon is what powers Gurren Lagann, along with the fact that he’s as strong if not stronger than his mech, Unicron possessing it wouldn’t be that useful. Plus, Unicron driving him mad wouldn’t work since overcoming the Multiverse Labyrinth should make him extremely resistant to Mind and Emotional Manipulation

Honestly, I'm not too sure on corruption being a good wincon, tech manip might not have been useful as I once thought, but I don't think Simon has ever shown resistance to soul manipulation. Sure, he has resisted mind and emotional manip, but I don't think he has ever actually shown soul manip unless I am wrong.

Okay, apparently Unicron has better corruption abilities than Dark Energon, though I cannot confirm
