Trigun Review & Summary by Binnan

>Vash the Stampede, the humanoid typhoon, the man with the 60 billion double dollar bounty. Hehe just some of the nicknames for Vash, wherever he goes cities fall in ruin. Actually he doesn’t destroy cities, it’s the people who are after him. Vash is a pacifist but he has amazing speed, agility, and marksmanship. Vash and his brother Knives crashed into a planet with 2 suns.

The plot is that Knives sees how people act corrupted and aren’t perfect so he decides to wipe them out. He was the one that crashed the ship as a kid. For hundreds of years he and Vash wandered around before they came across the ship, Knives goes in and pulls out 2 guns a black one and a white one, he gives the white one to Vash. Knives activates the Angel Arm, the gun fuses with the arm making a huge gun that sprouts wings on the side, hence the name, and he destroys a city. Knives explains his plan to Vash and Vash shoots him, scared to death he runs away and they part.

The episodes pick up after this, Vash is really an anti-hero he has a lot of faults like drinking and acts plain out weird but he has his moments of seriousness and that’s where he shines. Due to Vash’s reputation, an insurance company sends 2 workers to monitor him and file claims. Meryl Streepe and Milly Thompson, Meryl is a very serious person and later on loosens up (somewhat) and Milly acts like an airhead, what’s kewl. The last character is Nicholas D Wolfwood, my favorite character. Wolfwood is a priest who supports an orphanage but he’s not your ordinary priest. He was a former Gung-Ho-Gun and carries a huge cross shaped gun with him. Merly uses derringers which are small guns that carry one bullet each so she has a gripe of em in her cloak. Milly uses a huge stungun that fires +-shaped bullets. Vash has the white revolver, his left arm is actually a machine gun which is upgraded later on, and finally his right arm and revolver can fuse into the Angel Arm.

This anime is really good especially at the end, the beginning a bit lacking plot wise because they’re introducing the characters but when it gets going it’s really good.
