Vintage: April 4, 1998
Status: Completed
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).

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 immerses the viewer.

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