#just show them trigun

[tatzelwyrm]

Learning that Nightow was surprised that Trigun attracted a large female audience is so wild.

This man creates the sweetest, silliest, most tormented character to ever exist and is surprised that women like that (also, this character has wings!).

This man creates two amazingly silly and likable female POV characters and then proceeds to not sexualize them at all and does not involve them in any romantic subplots whatsoever and is surprised that women like that.

This man then creates another incredibly tormented guy and has both of his tormented men create a deep bond over a thousand pages and cause profound character development in each other and is surprised that women like that.

Super self-indulgent little comic about fears and reassurances.

Trigun 98 really is the anime of all time. It did absolutely say "Here is the biggest idiot you've ever seen in your life. It's going to be four episodes until he does anything that is not blindingly moronic and it's going to be five before he says a sentence that is not a lie. We are now going to vaguely imply that he has a dead girlfriend and that's why he's sad. You will learn ten episodes later that the dead girlfriend is his mother. In episode nine a random man is going to call him depressed and they will spend the next three episodes doing absolutely nothing important but forming an unshakable bond of friendship, and we are also going to learn that they are in space."

What are we supposed to do with any of this. Insurance agents with fifty guns and one gigantic gun respectively are the only reason we have a plot at all. An entire episode's resolution only makes sense with information we are never told and barely implied. The main character is Jesus but also a deconstruction of Jesus. I feel like the show is giving me a rabid guinea pig and leaving me to wonder why this guinea pig is on crack before telling me three hours later that he's a robot guinea pig, answering no questions and raising so much more.

#trigun #as you can tell i am rewatching the anime. #this show was bizarre as a kid and it's bizarre as an adult #trigun 98 #trigun 98 genuinely fits adjacently in a lot of boxes but perfectly in none of them #it's just similar enough to a normal show that human beings would watch #that you let your guard down and are once again blindsided by how weird it is #its so 90s anime in the same way a closeted queer teenager is straight #oh and its like deep or whatever I guess #show was a weird-ass fever dream as a kid

Little snippet from a vashwood reincarnation comic that I do not have nearly fully fleshed out in my head with written down text that would surely be 50+ pages and which I will probably get to draw never aaaah

#you know I would LOVE to draw this comic someday #but I can not start another one while having 2 to finish and I need to work on portfolio stuff for after uni D: #this comic would be much more vw centered than my other au cause it would just be vash meeting wolfwood reincarnated about 200 years later #and then they slowly acclimatise to each other's proximity with this thing hanging in the air between them #this thing being all that was left unsaid and unfelt but can be felt now without the looming threat of battle and a free future ahead #sighs #I wish I could show you and for once have the thing fully drawn out #this scene being the start of probably my favourite scene from the end #trigun #trigun spoilers #vashwood #vash #wolfwood

[mumblesplash]

furious that there is ONE hand-drawn frame of wolfwood, and it’s the best his character design looks in the entire show, and it’s right after meryl hit him with a truck

#trigun #mumbling #but also if there was gonna be one representative image of the guy this isn’t a bad choice all things considered #get stampeded. idiot #i’m mostly just mad that he never looks like that again???? #it’s like only shot in the show where he has something resembling his actual nose??? #honestly the way studio orange combines 2d and 3d animation is pretty clever a lot of the time #but unfortunately it does tend to just really drive home how much better 2d is for Character #there’s a reason everyones faces aren’t quiiiite as cgi as the rest of them

one vashwood hug. that is all i ask. studio orange can you hear me

#i just want them to come even slightly close to showing how much they mean to each other #i need it #trigun #alex’s inane ramblings

[buccellato]

Fucks me up to think about how Legato's legacy in-universe after his death in Trimax (and presumably Tristamp) is probably gonna be how much he sucked and nothing else....

Like, nobody will like Knives but Vash will be long-lived enough to be able to eventually talk about his good qualities from when he was a child and his quasi-redemption in his last days. But who remembers Legato? Livio and Vash are the only living people with any extended memory of him and neither of them would have anything nice to say (and rightfully so). Neither of them probably knew he was a slave, either—as far as Vash can tell this dude showed up one day and hated his guts, for all he knows he's just another survivor from July! Outside of Knives, Elendira, Legato, and maybe Conrad, I don't think any other character knows his actual life story.

And to add on to that, there's no way of looking up that past either—he had no name or personhood before he was effectively rescued, so who could investigators or reporters or archivists track down for information? The human being that was Legato only existed for as long as he knew Knives, before that he was something to be kept and abused as an object. There's presumably no surviving family they can reliably contact, nobody to really say "yes I knew him, here's what his life was like, here's how we can prevent something like this from happening again".

His entire existence will be reduced down to "a human weapon that was freakishly loyal to public enemy #1" without any reflection on the mechanisms that made him the way he was because there's just no actual knowledge of his life.

#trigun #trigun maximum #trigun spoilers #legato bluesummers #fucked up to think about how absolutely conditional his personhood was throughout his life. Good parallel to Wolfwood and Livio and Vash th #sometimes I think about that potential little sister he (maybe) had...if she existed (and was alive) would she even recognize him? #also really hope the whole “most of the humans on this planet died off and also Earth fleets showed up” fixes the slavery issue because oof #the Roderick gang was so open about it too...had they gotten more bold as of recent (in the story) or were they always so cocky? #not that it probably mattered since all they had to do was avoid the handful of city military police and the one independent who cared #I think Vash probably would've done something (and then pretend he didn't) if he knew more...but he's also not omniscient #I do think he'd stop slavers if he saw them but he'd actually have to run into them first...or learn to actually investigate for real #the Earth forces are actually desperately needed here if only just to fix this #CLEARING OUT MY DRAFTS (2 posts) LET'S GO

man. been thinkin bout this sleeping arrangement

do you think the twins slept in rem's bed the entire year or only after tesla

#i hesitate to call this a bed because we don't really see the whole thing. the only other angle makes it look like a duvet on the floor 😭 #look. i've just been thinking about their family a lot #rem loved her boys a lot obviously. it's clear #she wasn't prepared to be a mother but she wanted to be one for them #and she made mistakes like any mother does. the difference being she didn't get the time to make up for it. she had one year #i'll be honest i've been rambling in the tags hoping i'd hit the point where i could tag them all without it showing up in the search #because i need to maintain my personal tagging system. archival reasons #but i don't have much else to add here #not right now anyway lol #trigun #rem saverem #vash the stampede #millions knives

[duncanor]

It always kill me how Nightow insist in interviews there's no religious intent in anything he makes as if he doesn't put 100 Bible references in every chapters of Trigun that will haunt us forever.

The cross? Oh, it got a nice shape ya know. Nothing to see here. STOP LYING.

#trigun #I'm not even Christian #I don't get even 20% of them #Bro got the lore #And he's trying to make me believe it's just because it looks cool #SILLY #SILLY LITTLE GUY #SIR YOUR NEW SHOW GOT A BIBLE CAMEO WHAT DO YOU MEAN

“Trigun is simultaneously the best and worst thing I’ve ever watched” -my roommate

#trigun #vash the stampede #what the actual fuck is this show??? #I just read all the triggers on does the dog die and it has literally all of them

[kineticallyanywhere]

so does Stampede Vash wear the glasses specifically to keep light from reflecting off his eyes so that people can't see the Plant pattern because if so that's so hecking clever

#not yet ary #trigun stampede #trigun #me talking #my understanding based off of posts ive seen is that the pattern isnt a thing in the original #so if his glasses in stampede DO work to cover that up #then making them bigger than the og design isn't just updating the design to something thats cooler for 2020s fashion sense #it adds them to the list of 'things that are quirky about Vash until you know whats up with him and then you go OOOOOOOHHH.... HEY' #...so being caught up and watching episodes as they air has not served to make me normal about this show #my likes are fit to burst soon
