Summary: One of the best-animated anime series I've seen
Review: This is absolutely my favorite anime series in recent memory. The characters are well-drawn, well-animated, and each have their own distint personality, none drawing from the standard cliched anime stereotypes. Vash, the main character, is animated in manners different from the standard anime expressions, etcetera. The animatiors obviously had a gun fetish, as Vash's awesome six-shooter is one of the most unique pistols I've seen in a good while. The opening sequence of the first episode is amazing, with the gun damage being absolutely _the_ _best_ representation of small-arms damage I've _ever_ seen. It's something that has to be witnessed to be believed.

I'll put it this way: I've been watching anime since I was about seven, I'm seventeen now, and this is probably the best series I've seen yet. If you have a chance to buy the second DVD also, do so. It's just as good.

Summary: You have to see it to believe it...
Review: When I first picked up this video at my local rental store, I thought, "Cool! Ultra violence, shooting and blood and gore!" When I got home I was surprised that an anime with the title 'Trigun', was actually not ultra-violent, but HILARIOUS.

Vash the Stampede is donut scarfing, tall, goofball kind of guy. He consistantly wanders into town and due to some kind of accident or another, ends up wiping out the whole town. Hence the $$60,000,000,000 bounty on his head. This is a great flick and one of the few animes that I actually thought was better in english.

For those who want something different and in need of a good knee-slapper, this DVD is for you. The artwork in the extra features section is awesome!

Summary: Trigun is the best
Review: As I just said TriGun is one of the best anime series of all. It is funny alot of the time and serious in other parts. All in all Trigun is a series most any anime fan would love! Check it out if you can.

Summary: One VERY funny anime
Review: Wow. I am really impressed. Someone reccomended this anime (having seen it in English), telling me how incredibly funny it was. I was highly skeptical because I rarely go for goofy anime, and usually avoid dubs when humanly possible. However, with that said, let me go back to my "wow". Trigun was incredibly hilarious and I surprised myself with laughing outloud, quite often, at some genuinely funny antics. The fist volume (yes, I do speak of the /dubbed/ version) was actually remarkably well done-from the animation to the voice acting-it got me hooked onto the series and all the characters. I also *really* *really* like Vash the Stampede, for reasons I can't quite put a name to. He was just the most incredibly dorky guy I'd ever seen... and at the same time, he was incredibly cool (and very sweet, despite his label as being the "Humanoid Typhoon", and his notorious skirt-chasing nature ^^;) I dunno, maybe it was the coat, but there was something else very neat about him, like there was more going on with him then he's letting on (and of course there /is/). It's kind of a paradox to talk about Vash, since describing him would be like continuously contridicting yourself. So just do yourself a favor and BUY this anime; it's really entertaining and a great series.

Summary: Trigun
Review: Believe me, Trigun is worth picking up. Not only does it make you laugh out loud, it also manages to squeeze in some good morals, as well as making it clear that the plotline is only just starting to unfold. I haven't seen the dub (nor would I particularly want to...), but I definitely suggest getting the sub. All in all, Trigun is a good show that's worth getting. (Now I have to go to Sasuga to pick up the manga^^;...)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just Awsome
Review: This anime is just incredible. It is highly entertaining and nothing short of rolling-on-the-floor humor. I don't need to tell you how good it is for you to buy it. I am putting my FAITH in this anime,a nd my faith is hard to come by. Get it. Now.

Summary: One of the best anime out there!
Review: If you like top notch anime, you better get Trigun! At first the story seems to be about another outlaw gunslinger with your regular good guys and bad guys. But IT is so MUCH more than that. Vash the Stampedo is a wanted man with 60 billion double dollars on his head for the destruction the city July. While you expect Vash to be a dangerous and cruel criminal, instead you get a silly geeky character who amazingly avoids getting killed in any situation. The action sequences are way cool with unexpectedly almost no bloodshed, Vash can take out his opponents without even killing them and hurting himself. No one ever dies from a confrontation with him. You have to see it to believe it. For the first DVD episodes, there is a lot of great humor...which some people might find a little overdone if they are not used to anime. But as you will find out later on the up coming DVDs, the humor is needed to build upon Vash's character and the plot turns serious. Beneath that silly veneer lies a man haunted by his past who has vowed to never kill again. The music for the series fits right in. The animation is exellent in quality as well. Go BUY it now! Even $$60 billion is worth it! You won't regret it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not that good.
Review: Trigun isn't living up to the hype as people claim. I think Trigun try's too hard to get a laugh. (you know like Jim Carrey in Ace Ventura) It's funny but you never laugh out loud. I watched all four episodes and the last one is the most entertaining. That's the only episode that made me laugh aloud. The other three are good also and keeps your interest so it is worth checking out. But don't expect too much because there isn't really a real plot yet. The four episodes seem like an introduction or getting to know the characters. There are a lot of great scenes and I am going to get the next DVD because it is worth it. All in all if you're the type of person who just gets off on listening to people talk in japanese and call yourself a "hardcore anime fan" you like anything not American. But if you are a true "dubbie" anime fan who always likes a show based on the characters, plot, and action you may want to pick up the far more superior Cowboy Bebop first. Pick up both if you can afford it.

Rating: 5 stars
