Review of Trigun

Trigun is a really tricky anime to review or reccomend because it is difficult to go into detai, even broad details, without spoiling some aspects of the series so I will try review it while spoiling as little as possible. The show is listed as an action, sci-fi, comedy and that is pretty accurate. However, somewhere a long the way the show becomes something else entirely. While the big change the show goes through can be polarizing, I think that it really works and is the reason this show is still held in such a high regard. Trigun might not end up being the anime youthink it is, but I would still recommend it to anyone who likes westerns, comedy, or action.
What I can say about the show is that the animation holds up fine, the music is great, it has one of the greatest protagonists I have ever seen in anime, a handful of other great main characters, some really intersting villians. The show has a big variety in tone that can go from being funny to sad, romantic, action packed, depressing, emotional, or anything in between.
I think that Trigun is still talked about today, nearly 20 years since it first aired because of its endearing, well written, and memorable characters and a story that continually surprises the audience with real emotional stakes.
Side note, the Dub is pretty awesome and deserves a watch.
