Review of Trigun

When I started to watch this anime I was under the assumption it was just going to be another shoot 'em up pointless killer story. Similar to the type Ninja Scroll (the series) was like. My cousin showed me a couple episodes of it, and I was not impressed at all. There didn't seem to be much point to it. Well that was starting at a random episode. Despite my feelings toward the anime I gave it a shot anyways. To my surprise it was much better than It let on to be. It was very suspenseful for the first couple episodes, it made mewant to keep going on. After awhile the details of the show became evident. It was far more in depth than I first thought.

Unlike some characters from animes where the main characters are pretty flat, Trigun does character development quite well, especially with Vash. Like with many good characters there is FAR more to the character than meets the eye. Or even what is told about the character. What is so great about this anime it keeps you guessing what the truth behind the character's actions are.

The story was written very well. It was quite enjoyable. if you are looking for something a bit more than shoot 'em up anime. That is more than none stop action. If you are looking for something that has depth but still has the action many desire... Trigun may be for you.

Even after my initial thoughts about Trigun, it ended up surprising me and being very good! I would recommend this anime to have people watch at least once.

Overall Score: 9 / 10
