Trigun is a series that if you watched chronologically would start as a Sci-fi, become a horror/mystery, change direction into a drama and quickly evolve into a cyberpunk western/comedy and end as a emotionally charged action thriller.A man holds a gun to a persons head, this person is responsible for killing the man's loved one, you can shoot the man, shoot the hostage - What would you do? Life is a series of difficult choices with a time limit that only increases the risk and cost of making the wrong decision.BUT - What if you were immortal and didn't age so time was not a concept you understood?What if you could talk this man into taking out his anger on you and saving a persons life? What if you had a bounty on your head worth billions of dollars while most of the planet was just scraping by to eat?What if you refused to ever kill anyone who came after it?This is what Trigun implants into you - After you take some time to contemplate it. You will soon see alternative solutions for difficult life choices, you will grow the confidence to cry as an adult, to change your morals, to forgive, instill in you the courage to be your own person and express yourself emotionally and still be respected, to stand up for yourself and rely on others for strength when you can't.Trigun was my favorite series when I first started watching Anime and it still is - You will probably cry, you will definitely experience grief for the main character Vash. You may not like all characters the story or the music, but holy hell will you will be heartfully enjoying yourself .For a series that's over 20 years old, it's dated animation and at times, rather jarring soundtrack can be seen as alien, but that simply adds to its flavor. It's not the greatest anime of all time, hell it's probably not even in the top 5 for animation, music or plot. But it's an emotional experience, like having your heart broken for the second time. You will grow as a person, and not much media in history can even claim that title.

10 out of 10, if your a male, then you have to love this anime, its a gunslinger action plot told in the future, its funny, suspenseful, and awesome. My only gripe is that.....its toooo short, 23 episodes the story is told in so both an older audience and younger audience can enjoy it.Vash is the hero of this anime, and one of my favorite heroes ever, my other being spawn from the comic book series, thats how great vash stacks up.Its one of my favorite animes, and when you watch it, you will know whyalso, that black cat :3 hes adorable

Trigun was the series that got me into Anime. Amazing sense of humour along with intense plot line to the main character's past, which is Vash The Stampede.I hate giving, along with receiving, too much information about storyline's and plot lines because the series or movie itself is supposed to do that for us by also giving us context and an emotional connection.Which is why I'll say that Trigun engages your emotions so well by getting you to love each of the characters and really connect with them.I'll say this; don't expect anything from this series. Don't expect it to be an action, drama, comedy, thriller etc. type of series as it can easily be described as any. This series is easily based on connection with the characters and their morals, beliefs, everything about them and the choices they have to take and have taken.It's a true experience to be had if you just go to watch this series to enjoy it and have no expectation. I love this series and probably has to be my favourite series and I have gotten so many of my morals from TRIGUN also. It's amazingly beautiful and I never grow tired of watching it over and over again.10/10LOVE AND PEACE!

I'm not a big fan of anime, but when i watched the first episode of Trigun, i fell in love :)The character of Vash is the best character ever. He is extremely funny with his expressions and the way he acts.Trigun is a rather funny show at start but the show becomes serious in the later episodes.I watched it in Japanese with English subtitles, and later in English and recommend Japanese version.If you like anime you've already watched this masterpiece...but if you are new to this business as i am...its a must see...
