Summary: Good but not too impressive
Review: Can anyone please tell me what is this serie about? When I bought this one,I was surprise with the cover,it was so cool.Now when I watched it,I didn't get a thing about what was going on.This serie is cool and the animation is great.The action scene are a mix of humor but at the same time it has a good point.I really was impress with the action scenes,they are pretty cool but nothing else in the whole video impressed me at all.It is pretty cool but it might be a little confusing too.

Summary: One of the best animes I have seen for a long time...
Review: This series cannot simply be described in one word, but if I must do so I would gladly call it "unbelievable." This disc contains the first 4 episodes of the series in which we get to meet the wildly funny and extraordinary gunman and outlaw Vash the Stampede. Each episode is its own little adventure in which Vash is involved in a strange series of events, and through a streak of luck (or Vash is extremely clever and talented, we don't know which), he comes out victorious. While one of Vash's principle's includes the fact that he will kill no one may be a turn off to some viewers, don't think it takes away from the series, if anything it makes it that much better. He finds better, smarter, and sometimes more comedic ways to get through a sticky situation than simply killing the person. SO DON'T SLEEP ON THIS SERIES, GET OF YOUR LAZY @$$ RIGHT NOW, GRAB YOUR CREDIT CARD AND ORDER IT IMMEDIATLEY, YOU WON'T REGRET IT ONE BIT, I PROMISE!!!

Summary: very captivating
Review: i have seen all of the series up to project seed. i have to admit, this anime got me hooked for good. i can't wait for the next one to come out! i am collecting all the series and it will be a classic. vash is a very cool and kind humanoid. the more we know about him as the story untold he is more saintly and chivalrous than he lets on. he saves lives without shedding blood and is very merciful toward his would-be assassins. i can't praise enough about this film. you just gonna have to watch it and see for yourself.

go trigun!!

Summary: Among the Anime Elite
Review: This is hands down one of the best anime series available on DVD. It's funny and serious at the same time and the character designs and animation are awesome. Stop reading reviews and go buy it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Vash is Beautiful
Review: This is the way every outlaw should be. Vash the Stampede goes right down in history with Robin Hood, Pretty Boy Floyd, and Billy the Kid -- gunslingers (more or less) who rock.

One of the best things about anime is the complexities to their characters. In the US we have, um, Mickey Mouse and Bugs, all wonderful animals, sure, but they haven't got a whole lot of character. Whereas we have Vash, the double-edged sword who can be serious one minute and totally goofy the next. He's a complete idiot and yet a compassionate pacifist. Trigun is a great movie, and for all you deprived humans -- I'd buy it, honest.

Summary: Woweee...what a nice frisbee I have
Review: Dispicable...truly NOT funny, truly VERY annoying. I hated seeing it in my apartment so bad that I had to do the next best thing....put it in a waffle maker, then the toaser, then the oven, then douse it in lighter fluid and light. That was the most exciting part of the dvd.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Surprisingly good
Review: I was a bit hesitant to rent this DVD since I'm usually not a fan of comedic anime (I prefer the romantic/dramatic variety), but based upon a friend's recommendation I decided to give it a try. I was very pleasantly surprised by this first Trigun disc -- it was quite funny and sweet, and the light plot contained deeper undertones than expected. The animation was quite good, although episode 2 did possess some strange fuzziness that was a bit annoying. I haven't seen the rest of the series yet (I plan on renting them from Netflix ASAP), and so far I don't love it so much that I would purchase it, but I think any anime fan will like Trigun and thus I strongly recommend it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: One of the all-time worst
Review: I hate anime comedy. I'm not going in to any detail with this DVD, because it sucks. Final Criticism: Story line - Sucks/ Animation- Okay/ Overall - Don't bother, don't even consider it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An excellent work of anime.
Review: Trigun is an incredible anime piece. I've watched the entire series, and I can basically give you the jest of what this series is about. Don't worry, I don't plan on giving anyone any spoilers. =)

Trigun revolves around the guy you see on the DVD box. Duh! =P But anyway, unlike what you see on the box, Vash (him), is a very complex character who will surprise you as the anime unfolds in later episodes. In this first DVD, you'll be introduced to Vash as the baffoon! You wonder how such an incompetant person could be worth such a high bounty. Of course, it doesn't mean he's not likeable. You may question his worth, but you'll still definitely like him. Basically, he's clumsy in a "likeable" sort of way.

This anime is done with some serious style! While the animation is not fluid like Ghost in the Shell, it definitely wouldn't disappoint. The music score follows right along with the overall western theme, the story is deep and entertaining, and it'll definitely make you want more. The other main characters will grow on you like a fungus too.

My overall review? Go for it! This is an anime series worth investing in. And don't worry about Vash who acts like a baffoon. As the episodes progress, you'll see that he has a deeper intelligence, wisdom, and a sense of honor which will earn your respect, make you want to be just like him. =)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Boring and I hate the humor!
Review: Animated comedies suck. The series is not at all what I thought it would be. I thought I was getting a gun sling action worth the money animation. Instead I got a boring not at all funny now in my trash DVD. If you think your getting an action flick or even a good movie; think twice. The cover completely fools you.
