Trigun is going to be getting a new additions to its canon. Although the anime is complete the manga is still running. There is to be an animated Trigun movie that is to be released this year. It is being produced by Madhouse. Check the wiki for more details.

Even after so many years Trigun still stands as one of my personal all time favorites.

Trigun made anime fun again for me. After all the bad crap aired by Adult Swim, to watch this and Scryed was fun. I hope to see more high flying DBZ-esque hijinks in the future.

I paid no attention to the bad philosophy. The action sequences and fights with Kazuma were awesome.

Oh... than yeah, I guess that sort of makes sense.

Maybe that's what I should have done. That really could have been the anime version of X-Men to a degree, but they fucked it up, Hard.

I never said s-Cry-ed was good, I said it was fun. See, Nine?

Anyway, Trigun is a damn good series. Haven't read the manga (don't particular like mangas) but the anime was very good.

I watched the anime and read the manga, and while I wasn't super-impressed with it, it's still pretty good, with a strangely high popularity. I might watch this movie, if/when it comes out, just to see if it measures up to its roots.

I always liked Trigun. It kind of silly, with little bits of seriousness, then got really serious toward the end but kept its little bits of silliness.
One thing I didn't like was that they didn't really explain the whole Plant thing that Knives and Vash are. But other than that, good show.

Yeah, they NEVER EXPLAIN THAT. At least with DBZ they tell you what the hell a Saiyan is. Plants, though...

I kept thinking of my stepmother's azalias.

Before anyone goes "HAY WUT GUN DOEZ VASH USE" cause I see that periodically.

Its some insane schofield (break-action) revolver, but the barrel is actually upside down and the things got a freaky as hell looking barrel and no, nothing really like it exists or ever has. Or...well the schofield did as far as the gun breaking open in half to load.

Wolfwoods guns are some weird sort of colt commander as far as the pistols, I think. The trigger guards off though I think, I haven't seen this show in years.

And Milly's gun is just insane and nonsensical and fires iron crosses but its okay because LOL SHES TALL AND ODD.

And meryl just has derringers.


(No really, pretty much every forum I've ever been on which has any thread involving trigun gets the inevitable "HAY WHAT GUNS ARE ALL THESE" question, figured I'd just end it here)

I always thought Vash's gun was cooler than Alucard's, simply because huge revolvers are inherently cooler than huge semi-automatics.

Plus break-top weapons just look damned cool even though it would probably explode when you fired it.

Vash lacks a badass name for his gun. Minus points.

Guns don't need kickass names if they're cool enough. Look at the Walther PPK and Walther P99 for examples.
