I agree, but venture to say, they might pull it off. I've been totally against things that belong in an animation format to stay that way but here's the thing. When reading fantasy, the ability to visualize a dragon in anything but anime form was impossible because of lack of "good" visual resources. I never thought something that came that was that unbelievable could be shown in live action......then came Lord of the Rings.
If they can do that, they can, in time, do anything.
I don't thing Trigun would work though. Visually, yes. But as far as the plot, a gun slinger that won't harm others? I don't know. It's not the same when you see someone get a gun shot out of their hands in an anime than it is in a movie. And it's also more unexceptable when the protaganist keeps getting shot only in the shoulders and cheeks.
