Summary: |
Known for its Space Western theme, Trigun is about a man named "Vash the Stampede" and the two Bernardelli Insurance Society employees who follow him around in order to minimize the damages inevitably caused by his appearance. Most of the damage attributed to Vash is actually caused by bounty hunters in pursuit of the "60,000,000,000$$" (sixty billion "double dollars") bounty on Vash's head for the destruction of the city of July. However, he cannot remember the incident clearly due to his amnesia. Throughout his travels, Vash tries to save lives using non-lethal force. He is occasionally joined by a priest, Nicholas D. Wolfwood, who, like Vash, is a superb gunfighter with a mysterious past.
As the series progresses, more is gradually learned about Vash's mysterious history and the history of human civilization on the planet Gunsmoke. The series often employs comic relief and is mostly light-hearted in tone, although the tone shifts toward darker and more dramatic situations as it draws to a conclusion. It also involves moral conflict pertaining to the morality of killing other living things, even when arguably justified (i.e. self-defense/defending others). |

Although the animation, the art style and parts of the story and dialogue are average at best, the world of Trigun is an interesting twist on the usual apocalyptic scenarios.
The overall morale of the story is outstanding and a good representation that certain values transcend borders of culture and religion.
Aside from that the characters are very likeable and the mood never gets too dark, so it stays lighthearted for the majority of the story.
Still dont expect an outrageous good anime.

Trigun is an awesome anime! It is funny and full of action from the start, but also gets serious and emotional towards the end. I really think this is a great anime and have watched the whole series a few times now. Brilliant!

Very humorous with a great likeable characters. The plot overall is entertaining with a classic twist to the dialogue. The quality of the animation is reminiscent of other anime of the era, not crisp and sharp w/ bits of CG, instead its all original drawings like. This in my opinion helps sell the "old west" feel with a modern day twist of surviving an unknown apocalyptic event. If you like FullMetal Alchemist Brotherhood I think you would also enjoy this.

I thought this was a good show and expected more from the public in terms of popularity. It is very interesting and kept he hooked till the end. The "big fight" to end it all could've used some work though. They could have made it a little better and more of a struggle I guess. I mean it was his brother after all. But in all I liked this shoe and you action anime lovers will enjoy it. And there's even a little hint of romance to op it of. And I mean A LITTLE BIT.

Trigun was the second anime i ever watched which began my anime addiction ,the story and characters development had a potential that was perfectly fulfilled ,some people say that the anime's first half episodes are fillers but that's incorrect in a manner that each episode of them showed a fact about the true Vash we're moving the story along with ,and so if we started right from the seond half ,the anime would have been too crowded with incidents and new uncovered facts but rather than that these were spread along the entire episodes in an astonishing ( read more)

when they say "A Must To Watch" this anime really got it whole ,a classical cowboy-like era ,in a world that's all but ruins of what it used to be and the only symbol of its previous existance is the "lost technology" the current world survival revolves around and depends upon.. ( show less)

After watching the first couple of episodes, you start to wish for some things. Like wouldn't it be great if he got really serious and badass, if he had this huge awesome background story, if the sci-fi plot was going to blossom.
Every single thing I hoped for for this anime came true and my expectations grew with each episode. And let me tell you, it never disappointed. Trigun has great action and plenty of humour. What makes it special is that it takes time to relfect on its characters, delving into their motives and morals, in a way that completely ( read more)

It's stylish, cool, heartfelt and tragic. If you have not seen this anime, do it now. You'll be happy you did. ( show less)

I first heard of this from my friend from school. It is his favorite anime and he recommended it to me. I finally got to watching it and was happy with the result. I enjoyed how the story eased in from being kinda silly wit hsmall incidents, to more serious with complicated situations. The characters were also very enjoyable, especially Wolfwood, which is one of my personal favorites. (i do like Vash, although he did cry a bit too much near the end) The fights were good, although a bit more sparse than i had hoped, but not a problem. The atmophere ( read more)

(i do like Vash, although he did cry a bit too much near the end) The fights were good, although a bit more sparse than i had hoped, but not a problem. The atmophere was also very intriging, what with the space wastland, space coyboy feel. The biggest issue i had with this anime was the philosophy it kept hammering into my head during the second half: itr is never right to kill. Now i dont know what anyone elses opinion on that is, thats ur own, but regardless it seemed to kinda crippled the anime a bit (as well as turn vash emo). Ive seen this philosophy in other anime too such as Rurouni Kenshin and Genadier but not as heavy as this one. Also i can kinda understand Kenshin wat with his past but vash was just crying over some words his past friend said (yes it is sad i emphasize, but it isnt an excuse to go bawl ur eyes out every time u cant save everyone, especially ur enemies) Anyway, broken philosophy aside (at least by my beliefs), Trigun was an excellent story with interesting characters and a great atmosphere.
