Review of Trigun

Trigun is a classic anime series that the anime community is well familiar with, including myself. I watched it long ago as a young man, but chose to rewatch it as an adult. So how does it hold up? well, I'd say it's OK. There's some great moments in this series, lots of great comedy, some good writing and character development. However it is weak in some areas. Animation does not hold up in some episodes, a few episodes are frankly irrelevant filler, and the same great character writing does not follow every character in the show. Some episodic storylines do not even wrap up in anespecially complete or coherent manner. Many even feel as though they are grasping at straws.

But there is a good show here, and despite the flaws I think Trigun still deserves the title of a classic. I give this show a light recommendation.
