Trigun - High Noon (Vol. 8)

Amazon.com

In these final four episodes, the saga of Vash the Stampede builds to the climactic confrontation between Vash and his vicious twin, Knives. Director Satoshi Nishimura and writer Yosuke Kuroda also sort out the fates of the other characters: gun-toting preacher Nicholas V. Wolfwood reveals a surprising past; sorrow gives Milly an unexpected strength, shifting the balance between her and Meryl. Vash also has to deal with the last of the Gung-Ho Guns, including Legato Bluesummers. These confrontations involve some agonizing decisions, and voice actor Johnny Yong Bosh articulates Vash's suffering in an exceptional performance. Before the final face-off, the filmmakers show some of the backstory of Vash and Knives, which they began to explore in episode 17. But Nishimura and Kuroda fail to supply some important information: it's been clear all along that Vash isn't human, but what is he? Trigun ends on an upbeat note that will please its many fans, despite the unanswered questions. Apparently no one expected the series to become so popular when it hit the states in 2000; there's already talk of additional episodes or a feature. Sometimes comic and kooky, sometimes gentle and earnest, Vash stands out as one of the most appealing and individual characters in recent anime. It seems unlikely that the artists would end the adventures of a figure with so much potential--and so many fans. Rated 13 and up for violence and mild profanity. --Charles Solomon

one of the best animes ever.......2006-07-01

First I would like to say this is an incredibly good anime. And no matter what you think of the descreption you should at least try watching a few episodes. Also in the descreption of these episodes it was stated that you never find out what vash is- this is untrue, it reveals what he is(I dont want to spoil anything for you if you have not seen the series). Also there is not a good chance there will be any more episodes. The person who said that there are still mangas being made in Japan was correct, but these mangas have a entirely different storyline than the anime(the mangas are more like an alternate path than a continuation) and do not take place after the anime.

Hooked from the start!.......2005-03-26

An anime-fanatic friend kept telling me I had to watch some show called Trigun, and I kept putting him off because his description sounded lame. I mean really, a futuristic western on another planet?
Well . . . I watched the first episode and was hooked! What an awesome show! The ending is fitting and left me satisfied. If you have only seen the show on Adult-Swim, I highly recommend buying all the DVDs, or at least the last, since the real ending is played out in the credits and is not entirely shown on Adult-Swim.
Now I find myself stuck in the same position as my friend. I cannot explain this show adequately to anyone without making it sound lame! I just make them watch it and get them hooked that way!

NEW SERIES.......2003-12-04

This is by far the greatest anime series ever. And there is a 99.9% chance that there will be new episodes within the next few years since new Trigun mangas (comics). are being released in Japan!

I Really love this anime.......2003-08-24

This has to be one of the best anime series I have ever watched.. This being the last of the series makes it one of the best.... When Vash comes head to head with his twin, Knives.... And when something terrible happens in the episode Sin.. I just had to watch this DVD over and over again.. To anyone who likes action, drama and likes it when the character has a terrible past.. You'll love this series.... I highly recommend that you buy it...

How could you not rate this thirteen and a half?!.......2002-03-06

THIS IS THE COOLEST! After watching the whole series, this just mademe start rolling around the floor all day saying oh my god. Why? Because to someone who watches anime a whole lot and gets thier life twisted by it knows that it just has a certain feeling of 'wow, is that really what it's all about?' And OH MY GOD!, of course ^^
