Trigun, in my opinion, is THE best and most original anime series to date. It has a certain flair of action, adventure, comedy and even drama and romance. Its the story of Vash the Stampede, a man who the whole world fears. They call him the Humanoid Typhoon. Trouble lurks everywhere he goes and he doesnt know why. The story line for the series is addictive and captivating. I already have the whole series on the seperate DVD set that comes in 8 volumes, but i'm still willing to spend money to purchase the boxed set. Theres a lot to find out in the series, like why theres trouble lurking wherever he goes, why the show is called "TRIGUN" and just who is Vash the Stampede? So grab a couple 2-litter bottles of your favorite soda, grab a couple bags of chips and get ready to get stuck on your couch, glued to the tv, watching TRIGUN.
Rating: - TRIGUN's a masterpiece, unique & ultimately brilliant anime
I started to get the TRIGUN series of anime after reviews on the net and various other sources recommended it. After getting the first DVD entitled The $$60,000,000,000 Man, I was hooked. TRIGUN features some of the strongest characters I have seen in Japanese animation. The stories are individual but build into the entire development of each character and especially the strange hero, Vash the Stampede. I won't ruin it for you by revealing any of the plot. This series is absolutely brilliant, each story is carefully thoughout and contains an enormous amount of humour (sometimes adult in theme) but the hero himself is a beautiful character that is superbly drawn. This hero is a bit like Clint Eastwood's The Man With No Name from the Dollars Spaghetti westerns. He enters towns as a drifter and is the ultimate in cool, but what sets him aside from other heroes is he acts like an idiot and does some really crazy stuff along the way. I love the English dub to this series, one of the finest and carefully put together dubs ever and it is probably even better than the Japanese soundtrack because it is so funny. The producers couldn't have found a better voice actor for the hero. The music to this series is excellent, from spanish guitars to heavy metal guitars, it never ceases to be cool. A superb soundtrack with many interesting instruments and styles sets mood and emotions.This series is the ultimate anime treat, I have started to collect the series on DVD but now I'm just going to get the DVD box set instead. This series works on so many levels and is a highly intelligent, thought provoking series with a high level of comedy. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

This is obviously one of the best animes I have ever seen. I can even say it rivals the mythological Eva series in sheer fun to watch. (Watch me get flamed now!)... Trigun is good, the character development is great, the story is well thought out and planned perfectly. People who say 'Cowboy Bebop is a masterpiece' compared to this anime, are soley mistaken. Cowboy Bebop has a pathetic main plot compared to Trigun. Trigun has such a great story, firmly interwoven to have you believe one thing, but yet be presented with another. The moral problems that Vash faces raise extremely thought provoking questions about life, and what we do in it. I've noticed that people flame this for having plotholes as well. That's simply not true...everything is explained to a very satisfying extent... Needless to say the dubbing is great, so are the supporting characters, who have you laughing almost as much as Vash does. The serious plot twist midway through the series is welcome, and takes the viewer off guard. Trigun is a great series, with well-fitting music and amazing character development. Anyone who says it isn't, needs to sit down, and actually watch as well as listen.
