Trigun

This section is for the rational discussion of anime on a series basis. Spoilers should be expected, but please be courteous to your fellow users.

Trigun X? So, is this going to be continuing from the previous story or is it going to be from the beginning to the end but based on the manga version? Ok, I'm confused...


Yeah, that was when he was a lot younger and on the ship and stuff. Knives and Vash are explring the ship and find another humanoid plant like themselves as a mangled specimen in a giant test-tube (Tessla). They hack into the computer to find out more, and realize that the crew had experimented on her since her birth and had eventually killed her with that testing. They both slip into a kind of despair for a while; Knives disapears for a couple of days and Vash locks himself in a room. Rem eventually gets him out and tries to get him to eat some fruit, but she leaves the knife on the tray and Vash makes a grab for it to go at his own throat. She grabs the blade with her bare hand, saving Vash and injuring herself badly. It becomes a major turning point for him and his character developement.

Anyway, I really haven't been able to find out too much about Trigun X except that it's coming out in Japan in 2007, and that it might be based off of Trigun Maxximum (which picks up 2 years after Vash goes to live with Lina and the granny). The only real article I coud find on the subject is above in the 8th post.

Oh...I see I see. So that's what happened. Ooo...I should really read the manga version sometimes. I have this habbit...when I've watched an Anime I don't really want to read the Manga because sometimes I have this feeling it'll ruin it even though the Anime is made after the Manga version. Ahaha...I should really be more flexible.

You really should... it's an awesome manga. I don't think it'll ruin the anime for you. Even though the manga's way better artistically, I still like how fun the anime is, and it's still my favorite anime series. But the manga is also my favorite... So they're both pretty damn good. Just my oppinion though :D

Yup, that he does, along with Canada in Akira and Kiba in Wolf's rain. Johnny Yong Bosch is my favorite voice actor :D

And yes, he was the black Power Ranger. I think it was the original Mighty Morphin series too, which is just too cool.

Assuming the Wikipedia dates are correct (my Google-fu is failing me today), then Madhouse only had the original Trigun volumes to work with.

That would make a lot of sense, come to think of it.

This is going to be embarrassing...I have lots of anime characters I like, whether it's voice or drawing. When it comes to voices, I don't know any voice actors. If I've been told or read it somewhere, I'll forget it within hours and won't be able to remember again. And, if I think one character sounds exactly the same as another character, I'll refer to the person as "oh, that's the person from that anime..." :oops:

Yeah, I'm usually the same way, but for some reason his voice is so distinct to me that I actually did a little research on him to see what all he has done. He's a pretty cool guy :D
