Review of Trigun

Warning possible Spoilers Ah the 90's a time when anime wasn't that big of a thing and during that time we got some pretty good classic's like Cowboy Bebop, Dragonball, Pokemon and Trigun an anime stretching for Love and Peace. The story is set on another world many years into the future where the human race has to survive an almost inhospitable environment full of dangerous weather and dangerous criminals, in comes Vash the Stampede a man with a $$60,000,000,000 bounty on his head yet all he wants is to spread Love and Peace. For a story this was actually pretty good despite starting off slow with somefiller like episodes to get you used to the characters once you approach the halfway point the situation goes from random comedic gunfights with Vash messing around and into more serious territory as we find out more about Vash's past and why these super powered villains are coming after him, honestly the story gets sadder and sadder every episode until the final showdown happens although I would've liked a bit more closure in the ending, but at least it didn't do a Cowboy Bebop and gathering from the credit's I can kinda guess what happens afterwards.
It was very interesting seeing how Vash goes the way he does which is by not killing anyone even if they are trying to kill him because he thinks all life is precious and that nobody has the right to take a life even if they are a bad person so seeing people die hurts Vash and makes him feel like they died because of him which over time doe make him more conflicted with his actions and moral code plus the more the story progresses the more he realises that his way can't always win and that it is sometimes inevitable to not kill somebody in a battle, though of course it is funny seeing Vash's random attics cause trouble for everybody and even his friends who do eventually get used to it sadly though his random attics do tend to leave a considerable amount of damage to everyone's homes hence why he tries to be careful when he ends up in firefights.

Now the characters were actually great, I didn't find one that annoyed me and they were a funny bunch too, even the villains were pretty good and it's difficult finding decent villains.
Vash is the MC and in my eyes his character feels like a non-vulgar Deadpool badass yet can be very stupid sometimes yet Vash can also be a very deep person often thinking that whenever someone dies in a battle he blames himself because if he hadn't appeared that person would still be alive and you see his character deteriorate overtime as more people die from his actions making him a character you feel sorry and really just want him to spread his message of Love & Peace.
Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson are the main female duo of this show and are two co-workers sent by the Bernardelli Insurance Society to evaluate claims regarding Vash, both of these characters are very different Meryl is more short tempered and doesn't put up with Vash's attics which usually end with her punching him, at first she didn't believe Vash was the legend he was because of his personality however overtime from seeing Vash's actions she begins to believe and becomes more mellow with him even forming feelings for him as she felt sorry for the pain he was going though at later points in the show.
Milly on the other hand is much more different she is a simple and ditzy yet is very kind hearted and is usually very optimistic however everyone normally calls her a weirdo or sweet idiot mainly because she can cause her own troubles much like Vash, although she can be tough especially thanks to her tall, strong figure and she doesn't go anywhere without her patented Stun Gun.
Nicholas D Wolfwood is a wandering priest that Vash, Meryl and Milly find in the desert, however he isn't your usual priest as the giant cross he carries houses a nice select of weapons, Wolfwood is a man of God and has a firm belief in martialism so his moral code often comes into conflict with Vash's yet the two do get on very well despite Wolfwood being more serious he can be a funny fellow from time to time and gets on well with the girls especially Milly, he eventually does agree with Vash's way of thinking however this did cost him in a battle with his mentor.
Knives is the brother of Vash and unlike Vash he hates humanity as the two of them aren't actually human, Vash cares deeply for Humanities well being while Knives thinks they are parasites and need to be eradicated even if that means using super powered henchman to do his bidding, you see the conflict between the brothers as their way of life is much different while Knives thinks he's superior to humans Vash thinks he isn't.
Legato is the main henchman of Knives group known as the Gung-Ho Guns and he is a very emotionless and ruthless person who has the power to control people's bodies thanks to having Vash's left arm that was shot off by his brother, despite having this power though Legato hates himself and has been wishing to die ever since which eventually happens to him thanks to the forced action of Vash.

The artstyle was actually very good I liked the style of the characters especially Vash and Wolfwood, Vash's red coat definitely fits his character as a legendary gunman along with his stylish glasses and spiky hairstyle, Wolfwood looked surprisingly like Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop which is probably where the inspiration for Spikes character and style came from. I also liked the way the world is set in a western themed world which is just constant desert and everyone wearing Cowboy hats and stuff like that which felt very fitting for the way the show is which also fitted the steampunk style of the many vehicles in this show too.
I liked the op too the Rock metal music fitted with what's in store with the viewer and makes you think that Vash really is a proper badass when he's just a foolish badass plus the western themed soundtrack really did fit the setting however it just didn't fit whenever a serious moment was happening at that point it just felt off.

I really enjoyed the action as even though there are bullets flying everywhere just seeing Vash taking down enemies without needing to kill them is a very badass and heroic way of doing things, but that doesn't mean the others don't get a chance too since Wolfwood is a complete badass with his Punisher cross gun and is almost as good of a gunfighter as Vash is, hell even Meryl and Milly can hold their own that is if the opportunity arises because sometimes even when they have their guns they just surrender and give up which didn't make any sense mostly.

The comedy was also really good as Vash's actions always caused problems for everyone yet out his ridiculous actions he always ends up saving the day however to Wolfwood, Meryl and Milly it does cause them many problems that makes it difficult for them to work with Vash, also Vash may be a legend he can be a bit of a weakling for women as almost every episode there is a female character introduced that sways Vash's eyes however it doesn't turn out good for him as he never really succeeds in getting a date.

Overall this is a classic 90's anime that is definitely great to watch, so if you're a fan of westerns and stupid badass characters then you'll find a good amount of enjoyment even if the story doesn't kick in till the halfway point.
