Review of Trigun
NOTE: This is just my own uneducated, biased opinion its not fact so dont freak at me. Now what can be said about Trigun to get you to watch it if you haven't already. I'm sure many people have since it's obviously been around for a long time being from the 90's and all, but that shouldnt be your only reason not to watch it. Just because its an older show does not put a damper on the quality of the series. Normally that is the go to complaint about older shows is the art quality, but sometimes a series is just so far ahead ofits time, and that is the case for Trigun. The post-apocalyptic/desert setting and ominously placed monuments make for a edgy feel in this light hearted and fun anime. So Vash our main character is a bit of a womanizer, trouble maker, and man with a secret past which we slowly discover through the series. Most of his adventures are episodic in nature, but he is reunited with friendly faces along the way. The enitire cast of characters, from one shot villains, to reoccurring companions are so fleshed out and real that they all feel like their own person with dreams and heartache. The music is your typical amazing 90's retro tracks full of eerie energy as Vash tears up a town while escaping the law, and knows when to cool down with those feely (it can be a word if I want it to) moments. This show has a bit for everyone and appeals to a wide range of audiences. While being a western it feels futuristic. And while being episodic, it carries a story rich enjoyment. And while being fun and childish, it can be brooding and mature. I truly enjoyed this series in so many ways that it cant be reasonably described in a review but this is a must watch for most anyone who can respect a good show when its made.
