ALSO REMEMBER TO SKIP THE FIRST EPISODE OF GUNGRAVE

almost forgot to say, its the berserk first episode situation but much worse.

Did they really make an animated copy of the Trigun manga?

In my experience, all those "post-ending projects" end up being worse than nothing.

I'm kinda surprised so many people have recommended the show.

i got no idea what you are talking about, i said it was just an easter egg thing. i guess i should have explained that the game itself is set in normal hong kong while the anime references trigun, other than that it is a completely separate story.

I was under the impression that Gungrave had some sort of connection to Trigun.

A lot of anime do that thing where they bring back old characters and you can assume something big happened in the time between.

Or even things like Evangelion or Fullmetal Alchemist, where a project is created to finish up loose ends from a much older show.

If it was just an easter egg reference to Trigun (which I've never seen) I guess I got the wrong idea.

If you want to expand on what you said, that would be much appreciated!

trigun is set in a desert planet which humans are trying to occupy, gungrave is a modern mafia show set in a city. the grave sites in gungrave are marked with years in the 19000's, an alien species called thomases makes a cameo in an episode in a horse race on tv(except its thomas racing), the old boss of the mafia mentions how the city used to be a lawless barren wasteland when he first moved in. trigun took place mostly in the wasteland where everything was shabby, but it was shown that there were large cities resembling early 1900's new york that managed to exist.

the only contradiction is that there is only one sun in gungrave while trigun there are two in the sky. in trigun there were no bodies of water while gungrave has an ocean. these stop me from knowing for sure that it is set after trigun, but besides that unless you have seen trigun you wouldn't notice these things and just see it as a modern mafia show. no characters re-appear and or have any connection to gungrave.

If they made an anime set in the Trigun timeline and somehow managed to make it as good as the original then I think I would watch that shit unironically.

I've seen a lot of anime but I've never heard of Trigun, is it any good?

I can't really trust the internet when it comes to anything as niche as anime.

I never really got on the train to begin with because I already have far too many time-sinks as it is.

i love it, its a sci-fi wild west anime with a similar structure to cowboy bebop, its mostly filler until it approaches the end. if you don't like that idea then it probably isn't for you but the characters are developed during the filler. the protagonist is a goody pacifist who screams about love and piece and some people hate the show for that, but the anime itself is not pro pacifist, everyone around him does not believe in what he does, and he himself doesn't entirely believe in it either but keeps himself in a state of denial. that's the most interesting part to me, it makes you wonder whether what he is doing is selfless or selfish.

you don't have to watch trigun to watch gungrave but you should still check that out, one of my favorites. no filler.(remember skip first episode)

i don't ask people for recommendations, i decide on watching stuff based on the opening and 97% of the time it works. i gave up on forums and reviews because i realized people take their biases from others, when i hear the same thing being said by many people i wonder where they all took it from and if they would have thought that way if they went into X media with a blank mind.

I'm definitely going to check it out. It sounds great and I don't have anything else to watch right now.

I just hate that shit where they pull some big event out of nowhere to give a show more impact.

I would have to watch the whole thing just to know what the frick is going on and why it's supposed to be special.

Sorry ma'am, looks like his delusions have gotten worse. We'll have to admit him.

It's definitely very different in feel to the original series, but it's enjoyable. I still prefer the original, but there's a lot more filler in it than the new series which doesn't slow-burn the plot and instead leads with the Knives vs Vash plot.

more knightow

there is an anime based on the game, technically its set in the same world as trigun but its only shown in background easter eggs.
