Summary: Dubbed Trigun Works
Review: In the latest volume of Trigun for VHS, Vash's problems are then solved, from volume two, which after viewing, left me hanging for MORE Trigun. I've seen the dubbed version of Trigun, and I can honestly say, that it works. The voices sound great and follows on with good dubbing; like DBZ and Sailor Moon. If you don't mind english dubbed anime, definitely pick this up. But, if you prefer the original subtitled anime, like me, then you'll want to pick up the DVD, because it's like having both VHS versions of the anime.

I believe that the VHS anime (dubbed) market will eventually die off, because I'd think the prices are just insane, especially for the original subtitled tape, which can run about 30 dollars. The only sensible thing to do nowadays, is to buy anime on DVD. DVD's offer better picture, sound, and features. They even offer both English and Japanese with English subtitles. So I believe if you still like VHS, pick this up. If you want more for your money, check out the DVD version of Trigun Volume 3; Wolfwood.

Don't really know what Trigun is about? Well, I definitely recommend this series to you, because it blends action and comedy together nicely. Plus, the animation is superb and almost flawless. It takes place in the sci-fi world, with twin suns. Think of it as a futuristic western, with lots of comedic and serious moments. This Vol. 3 continues the captivating storyline of Vash The Stampede. Who knows what else we'll see along the way? All in all, a nice VHS to pick up if you like dubbed anime.

Summary: Best. Trigun Volume. Ever.
Review: In this 3-episode DVD, the world is introduced to Nicholas D. Wolfwood, a cross-totin', cigarette-smokin', fast-talkin'...priest? Believe it or not, Wolfwood is a priest, and is good-hearted, trying to save orphans and such. When Vash and Wolfwood sink in quicksand, we first see Wolf's abilities with the gun - he actually told Vash he never shot one (clearly a lie). When they enter a quick-draw contest in Episode 10 to save a family, Vash and Wolf end up facing each other, but instead, they rescue the family from the sharpshooters, who were held at gunpoint. This is a pivotal episode in that this is the first time Wolfwood breaks out the cross - actually a huge carrying case for his guns - and is a must-see for any anime fan. Although Episode 8 finishes up with the hijacked sandship, all episodes are absolutely amazing. Trigun has the perfect combination of wacky humor and firearm action. A must buy, in my opinion.

Review: My only question: How many guns does he HAVE in that cross of his?

Summary: Introducing one of the coolest anime characters ever!
Review: Nicholas D. Wolfwood finally shows up in this volume, when he and Vash team up to save a little girl, and wind up falling aboard an alien spaceship! They also get involved in a quick draw contest(hence the title of episode of ten), where we get to delve a little bit more into Wolfwood. It also features the conclusion to the BDN story from the end of the last volume, which also delves a little bit more into Vash's past as well. This DVD is excellent, I suggest you pick it up soon.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One Word - Wolfwood
Review: On this DVD, we are introduced to Nicholas D. Wolfwood, one of the best characters ever! He is a traveling priest with a portable confessional. He smokes, he drinks, he swears, and wait until you see his weapon! It is so heavy because it is filled with mercy! Praise the Lord! Love and Peace!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Enter Wolfwood
Review: Once again Vash the Stampede is thrown into situations that he'd rather not be in in his quest for love and peace. This volume though introduces the character of Wolfwood, a man who becomes a major player later in the series.

And Between the Wasteland and the Sky- Concludes the two part series of Vash's adventures on the runaway sand train. He again has to decide between killing and the personal ideals he seems to have set up.

Murder Machine- Nicholas D. Wolfwood is introduced in this episode. A cross toting, chain smoking, child loving priest who can't stand to see a child suffer and is amazingly good with a gun. Vash and Wolfwood team up to save some lost children from killer spider robots. This episode also raises some more questions about Vash as he somehow seems to shoot several robots without a gun.

Quick Draw- Vash and Wolfwood get entered in a quick draw contest and must draw against each other to prevent the death of a young mother. The beginning sequence is one of the funniest in the series as Vash proceeds to get his day underway and the events therein.

This is one of the best disks in the series as it's before the action gets more serious and still has some of the same light hearted tone as Vash and Wolfwood bicker back and forth and Wolfwood flirts with Milly. This was the first disk I ever watched and what got me hooked on the series.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: For Peace and Love
Review: So far the whole Trigun series is great. Not a lot of fighting, gun play, no course language,and no sex. This is a great series for young and old. If you love good amine then get this series!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wolfwood is a great character
Review: The incredibly accurate gunman/priest is a walking contradiction. A man of peace and a man of war. He's great. He speaks to the world of contradictions we live in. His less talk, more action style counters Vash's overly vocal character nicely.
This DVD was a lot of fun. More firepower. The Josei-tachi girls are as entertaining as ever!
Love and PEACE!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Blown away. ...Giggle.
Review: This has to be my favorite of the five volumes of Trigun I've seen so far. While less serious than some of the later episodes, Murder Machine and Quick Draw have somehow become my favorite episodes of the series.

Volume 3 --predictably, considering what it's titled-- introduces the character of Nicholas D. Wolfwood, a mysterious chain-smokin', gun-totin', funny as all get-out... priest. The interaction between him and our hero Vash is priceless -- this volume had me giggling like mad more times than I can count. At times, my mother gave me funny looks and asked if I was all right. (I then made her watch it. And she fell in love, too.) The duality often played on in this volume makes for some very interesting conjectures.

The volume also gives us the first bits of information about Vash's hidden past -- altho it raises more questions than it gives answers. As a result, it only draws you deeper into the story.

Over-all, volume 3 is exceptional. It enhances the story of Trigun, giving us more character depth and development -- and of course, Nicholas D. Wolfwood.
