Review of Trigun

Trigun is one of those animes that one does not simply watch but experience, I had first come upon this anime while watching odd clips on youtube, it had been bits of the first episode that had seen that got me to go out and search for this anime. After watching the first episode I was surprised at how enjoyable it was with its simple plot at the start making it easy for one to get into the show, it helped snowball my interest in the anime. By the time I got halfway through the series I was fully invested in the story, Vash isprobably one of my faviourt characters in anime with his complex view on things making him so much more than a simple main character. Every time Vash felt something, a part of me felt it too, this was especially true for the moments that are sad.

But while we are on the topic of characters, let's take a moment to appreciate the side character, from the supporting cast of Wolfwood, Meryl and Mill, to the unique bad guys in the gung-ho guns. All the characters were thoroughly enjoyable and most bounced well off Vash and his personality. The story is a lovely mix of revenge quest with psychological aspects such as morality and whether taking a human life is right by any means, this is well executed and allow the watcher to work out a conclusion on their own.

As a whole, the anime is one of my all time favs, it will be one that I will forever hold dear to my heart.
