Manga Recommendation For The Triguners
So I’ve been seeing people who, after having binged all of the available media for Trigun that’s out there currently, wondering about things that were similar to it, and I just remembered a manga series I read in college that, I’m not even kidding, felt like it was a Shojo inspired directly from Trigun, and I thought I’d recommend it here.
The title of it is either Immortal Rain or Meteor Methuselah, depending on which language you get it in, but in the US it was sold under Immortal Rain, and it was written by Kaori Ozaki.  To my knowledge, it never got an anime adaptation, and it was published by Tokyopop around the time TP went defunct, so you can’t find print versions in English of all of the volumes, but there were, at least at one time, digital translations available online.
I honestly really loved it, the story was as traumatizing and crazy as Trigun in a whole lot of ways, still a bit goofy but also just really sad at parts, but a really enjoyable read as a whole.  I think people who liked Trigun would find a lot of things to enjoy about that manga, what with the number of similarities in the plot and characterizations, from a young-looking, very traumatized, very old man who just wants to live a quiet, peaceful life but is being blamed for heinous things and is on the run from bounty hunters, with a haunted past that shows that he wasn’t the actual cause of all the shit, it was another person with a sibling-like relationship with him, who’s also had horrible medical procedures performed on him and is all scarred, who’s also able to do CRAZY shit.  There’s also monsters, body horror, some really fucked up shit involving births and pregnancies, copious amounts of religious symbolism, people who lived and/or worked at an orphanage, the list goes on and on and on.  So if you’re looking for something new to tide you over while you wait for season 2 of Tristamp, maybe pick that one up if you can find it.
The only thing I would warn for, and I know this can be a biiiig deal for some people, is that the lead female character (and the possibly romantic interest to the Very Old But Young Looking Man, but it’s been a long time since I read it and if it was romantic, I intentionally just mentally blocked that part out) was underage.  An older teenager, but still not 18 for at least the beginning of the story, though she might have aged up by the end.  :|  I know it’s a huge deal to a lot of people, and that is absolutely valid, but it’s also something that’s unfortunately kind of common in manga and anime, so.../s h r u g/
Not that Trigun also didn’t have that, though...hah...hah hah...HAH HAH HAH 8|  /Stares at Wolfwood and his actual age that all the old 98 Anime and Manga fans had dropped in their laps, very late in Trimax...Jesus H Christ.../

Re-read Immortal Rain and told myself to space it out. Take it slow. Did not take advice, as usual. Fully and completely shish kabobbed myself on the spear of bittersweetness. IR fans does that even make sense to you. I've yet to find another manga series that so slowly but surely rips me apart and then lovingly places the pieces back together. Anyway I'll never be able to fully express what this series does/means/is to me so I am going to Stop.

Thank you for the ask! It’s no problem! I always am bad at picking favorites so it’s fun actually thinking it through to decide. That being said, I am sure I have forgotten some couples that I absolutely love. But here’s the couples I can think of off the top of my head.

immortal rain is like angel’s egg (1985) if angel’s egg was a shoujo manga with fleshed out characters and sprawling world building and talking animals and an actual plot

so like
we're all aware that the religion practiced in rain world by the ancients (iterators, and some of the slugcats by extension) is heavily inspired by buddism-- karma, reincarnation, ascension that leads to enlightenment where the need for the life/death cycle is past you now because you no longer feel suffering
five pebbles tells survivor and monk to go west.
west.
like in journey to the west? the great classical chinese novel, an allegorical journey about human perseverance?
in a game that is so incredibly difficult that beating it would require persistence?
was this intentional? did videocult know this? why haven't i seen anyone talk about this before?
im losing my mind right now

Adrian turned to find that a certain vampire was no longer by his side, and neither was one of his many credit cards. Instead, Gabriela was at the other end of the aisle, her face pressed up against a glass box encasing what seemed to be a small figurine. Adrian walked over, and with a laugh, asked: "Is that from that swords show you talked about?"
many thanks to @hydn-jpg for this commission of gabriela and adrian, they did such a wonderful job on this and i adore it sm!! i love the idea of them interacting with each other like a father-daughter duo of sorts. gabe canonically watches blades and i think her favorite character would be nia (and will be adrian's too once she and lily make him sit down and watch it). adrian's credit card is a free-for-all for gabe, who has now become the world's richest vampire nepo baby in the funniest way possible (i.e. falling into a portal lmao). you bet your ass cas is looking for a way to open that portal again.
