Review: and my preorder of Trigun - High Noon hasn't even shipped. Other than that, I'd like to say that Trigun started out pretty good, then went downhill from there. I'll be waiting for my shipment to give a final opinion.-Angry Customer

Summary: Last Chapter to an Epic Anime
Review: Anime has always been a source of enteratinment for me. Almost a year ago, all I looked for was a quick fix of violence and little story. And that was what I was anticipating when I picked up the first volume of Trigun August last year. But I got a lot more than I expected. Trigun takes place on the planet Gunsmoke. The plot revolves around Vash the Stampede, an outlaw whose head is worth $$60,000,000,000. The Humanoid Typhoon. He passes through towns only to leave them in ruins. A man so feared that when people see him, they run...Take two insurance women, Meryl and Milly. Their mission is to track down this man to stop him from causing anymore trouble... Trigun is an anime that mainly relies on character development. As the series goes on, more and more of the character's pasts becomes revealed till you finally see the whole picture. That's what makes it so hard to wait to see the next volume. You just can't wait to get another piece of the puzzle. In the eighth and final installment of my favorite anime, Vash will finally confront the demon of his past, Knives. He must finally settle the score he vowed to settle years ago. But can can Vash actually put away his pacifistic nature and finish Knives off? Well find out yourself by getting the final chapter to this epic anime!

Summary: Great Conclusion!
Review: First off, let's deal with the technical stuff. The picture and sound are great. I couldn't find any flaws in either (I only listened to the Japanese track. I spot-checked the English dub here and there, and it sounded good.) The menu is outstanding, as expected. The extras include pictures of the covers for the Trigun laserdiscs, conceptual art for Vash and Knives, the creditless opening and ending (the opening changed slightly somewhere in the second half of the series, if you didn't notice, and the last episode has its own special ending, which contains spoilers if you haven't watched it yet), and even some pictures of everyone's favorite black cat, Kuroneko, for those who look hard enough. I was fortunate enough to get a DVD with the limited chrome card, and it really adds a lot to the look of the DVD. It has Knives holding his black six-shooter gun next to his face, which happens to be the same way Vash was posing on the cover of the first Trigun DVD. The episodes just keep getting better and better. Basically, if you liked the episodes on Vol. 5-7, this DVD gives you more of what you want up the wazoo. It's packed with action and suspense, and a lot of loose-ends from the series are tied up here. It finally deals with Wolfwood's past, and it contains the final showdown between Vash and Knives. You'll love it!

Summary: Blue Skies
Review: For a series that started out rather clownishly, the writers really drop the hammer for the last two discs. You learn a lot of back story for characters in fast doses. Vash is pushed to the limit, and at times looks like he's going to fold under the pressure. His attempts to distance himself from Wolfwood and the girls fail (due mostly to their obstinence.)In the end, however, they seem like the very things that anchor him during the worst of his struggles. I like the way this story has been drawn together over the 8 volumes. The writers have taken a lot of time to slowly build the characters and set the scenes. They place clues throughout (which means watch the whole thing through again...you'll be amazed at what hints are dropped early on.) As a whole, the animation is stellar, the story is classic, and the music kicks. Trigun is superbly done. The ending is bittersweet, but hopeful. I rate this up there with Cowboy Bebop as the best stuff I've seen.

Summary: I only wish there was more!
Review: From the first volume I was addicted to this anime and I have to say, this has been, if not the best, one of the best anime series around. This volume,High Noon, brings to an end Vash's fight with his brother, Knives and also explains Vash's past in a series of flashbacks. Also, one of the characters loses their life (I'm sorry! Trying not to spoil it!). And in this finishing tale, Vash must deal with some personal issues as his morals and actions conflict. The ending is one of the best endings I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot of gawd-awful anime endings)in anime. The only problem I have with this series is that there isn't any more of them for me to buy. And, if Yasuhiro Nightow happens to read this, I wish he'd put out an OAV (hint hint)!

Summary: One of the Best Anime Series to hit the US in years!
Review: High Noon, the last volume in the Trigun series ties up all loose ends in this series. My fascination with this series continued to grow with each DVD release, and High Noon doesn't disappoint. As is typical with most Anime series, you have to watch Trigun from the beginning. It is a continuing storyline with a deep back story that only comes to light over the progression of the series. In vol 8 we come face to face with Vash's true Nemisis. We've seen Vash struggle with his feelings over this inevitable and final confrontation. Vash's friends, Milly, Meryl and Wolfwood all must face great hardships as Vash faces his. The Trigun series provides something different than the standard anime. Sure, its got out of this world technology, but that isn't the focus at all. Its strong back story and character interactions are what set it apart from standard anime. There are even moments of comedy to help space all the drama and keep it from choking the viewer. Overall, this is an excellent anime that should be part of any true Otaku's private collection.

Summary: The End
Review: I love this series and I can watch it again and again.. This was the finale of the series, unfortunately.. Wolfwood dies, which ..., because he's just starting to get close (in that way) to Milly. And now she's all alone to watch Vash and Meryl get together... Anyways, it was really good. I especially liked the gunfight between Vash and Knives. It was so awesome, you will watch it over and over. Vash overtakes knives and tosses his gun and red coat aside, to carry his brother over his shoulder back home, and start a new "normal" life. He didn't kill him, he wants to 'save' him.. Good luck I say! All in all, it is a must have if you have been following the series.. You will not be disappointed, except to the fact that the series has come to a close..... -Sephariel

Summary: And How!!
Review: I was railroaded into watching the first Trigun by an old friend, but was instantly hooked. I enjoyed the way that the show went from just silly to very deep. This was the climax. Every episode is emotionally charged, and the ending is really unexpected. It is also left open. I sorta wish that I clouda seen more of knives - i liked him better than Lagato anyways.
