Trigun and it's Remake: A Tale of Two Gunslingers
Переглядів 574Рік тому
Trigun is a well known classic anime that many people love, so a remake naturally drew quite a bit of attention. That attention seems to have died down ever since the show actually started, so what's the deal? Good, bad, or mediocre? Does it stack up to the original? Today, I'll attempt to answer that question and see whether or not this remake of one of my favorites can join it in status.

Hunter X Hunter: An Educated Guide (Part 1) The Hunter Exam
Переглядів 1,5 тис.Рік тому
This is a video I made and there will be more and they will all be like this until I run out and make more that are different and maybe someday there will be a Dick Brigade again, but I'd have to find some friends for that and I make anime videos now so that will never happen.
After watching some reviews, I understand that the pacing and narrator is a very subjective issue. For me it work in the general sense of the arc. It feels for me like the works of Dickens. But again, each to his own.
yo that was a fire f*ckng amv dude
11?
I randomly come across this video somehow, and it's a great quality one. Especially sense BSD is one of my favorite modern Anime, but it feels like no one ever talks about it, which is kinda annoying. So this is definitely a treat. Despite the criticisms, this is actually one of the nicest reviews of season 1 of this show that I have seen, even by it's own fan base. But, it obviously vastly improved in later seasons, so I look forward to seeing you cover those in like 5 years. (Of course it's possible you don't agree with that assessment, but like, don't actually let me know, please. Like I said, I'd much rather wait for one of your videos and be like: "Hell yeah this guy gets it" or "Ah damn looks like I'm going to have to kill anoth-" I mean "Ah damn I guess we disagree on this". Seriously though whatever you're thoughts are I don't want to know yet.)
Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. I've definitely got a lot of thoughts on all the BSD seasons and a script in progress for a massive video covering all the seasons. The five year estimate is a bit generous though. I'm just hoping for this century 💀
Great video! For me the narration really paid off when there was nothing for Gon, because there was nothing he was thinking about besides killing Pitou
Good analysis, but it's ruined by the forced memes and references every 30 seconds. It's like you couldn't trust your audience to pay attention without injecting random obnoxious sound effects and memes. Couldn't get through it even though I was interested.
This video is a masterpiece
Am I the only one who likes yorknew better
cool
I like bungo stray dogs a lot, but after rewatching the first season with a friend of mine, I realized a lot of these flaws. But the second season improves on basically everything, basically from episode 1 too
Couldn't agree with you more! I'm actually working on a bsd full series review in the background of other projects right now, so hopefully someday I'll get to cover season 2 cause I kind of love it
i love how the narrator just stole the mic and went off this season haha
an amazing video wonderful editing thx for this experience
Thanks for watching and for the compliments! It's great to hear that people are getting something positive out of all the work I put into the editing
Damn, the second part of your Chimera Ant arc videos feels overly drawn out.
Life imitating art I suppose. It's something I'm working on, but I just kinda like yapping to much
Amazing
Alright, you've convinced me
Not entirely sure what of, but glad I could be of assistance anyways. Thanks for watching!
The chairman did nothing wrong and Slender you are saying about him hurts me to my very core, so what if we're brutal and sacrifice anything to win without it we would be dead and no one could complain.
videos gud but can u be more straight 2 da point ?? please
I have a pretty hard time shutting the hell up most of the time, but I'm working on it. Hopefully I'll never make a video this long or bloated ever again. Thanks for watching!
since you keep making comparison to jujutsu kaisen and demon slayer, i just want to highligth the major flaw those 2 anime have that HxH didn't, because sometime you can learn from you predecessor mistake, but sometime you can create new mistake: -for Demon Slayer, i haven't been able to watch it, the first episode is absolutly horrible, so much drama for character i don't even know, yes maybe there's important backstory here, but you should never start with such a bad first episode, in comparison, the HxH2011 anime even drop the backstory with Kito because it only get relevent 100 episodes later and it would make the first episode more boring.In HxH you get hook really fast, in Demon Slayer you get repulse really fast. For Jujutsu Kaisen, it's very different, the action start very fast, it's not overlly dramatic or boring, it's really good, and it keep going, but... there's too much character introduce all at once, it's very hard to get a grip of them, the story didn't take the time to introduce them properly. in HxH you start with 3 of the main character and after 1 episode you kinda get a grip on their character already, and then you have Tompa, Kirua and Hisoka that came a little later in a second wave, every character of HxH are well introduce.
I don't disagree with either of the two criticisms you present here (or at least the broad strokes of them), but I think its a bit of an apples to oranges situation. If I were to evaluate all three series in their entirety, Hunter Hunter would come out on top for me, but I'm only comparing their individual arcs. I happen to think that both of the individual arcs I highlighted from JJK and Demonslayer do a better job with certain aspects Hunter Hunter attempted, which doesn't determine the quality level of those series on its own. Even terrible series (which I don't think any of those three are) can have standout elements worth using as examples. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
@@extraguy790i know it's not the same context, it just hit me because i can't understand your comparison for those 2 reasons, but overall i agree, Chimera's arc is a masterpiece, but there's still some major flaw to improve on
Nah hating the narrator is just your personal failure to suspend your disbelief. I love how poetic he talks most of the time it's so fruity and fun. It's like complaining about the trope of characters explaining their powers to each other cause its way more fun when they do gloat boast and waste time
I'm also not a fan of the explaining powers trope and I tend to think shonen are much more interesting when it isn't used, but neither that nor the narrator thing are enough typically enough to ruin a series. It's more of a minor annoyance than anything, but I still thought it was worth mentioning as I believe there would have been better ways to communicate a lot of that information. There is definitely a fair amount of my own personal preference mixed into that criticism too, so not everyone is going to share my perspective. Thanks for watching!
CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER?!?!?!?
Watch 1999
I'd really like to watch the whole thing, but unfortunately I'm just too busy in life to commit to that. I have skimmed parts of it though and it seems like a really compelling adaptation
@@extraguy790 I think it's better then 2011 the music in 2011 is better but thatw it I think they should have just continued the 99 anime
@@extraguy790 the Manga the best but the 1999 adds parts that make u like the characters more
My thoughts exactly
Who is Gyro?? That still confuses me and why people keep bringing him up. Why???
He was the leader of the NGL and its drug operations before the ants came in and ate him. If you've only seen the anime then he's no big deal, but the narrator straight up says in the manga that he and Gon will meet again at some point, which is probably why you keep hearing about him
“60 episodes is so long” Bro no one tell him about one piece
It is too late to save me.. I already read it
Jojo part 5 video?
I'm actually planning to make Jojo's my next big long series after I finish up the last two Hunter Hunter videos, so I will be getting to part 5 eventually, but it may be a while. Thanks for watching!
While I enjoyed the gags, the title isn't a thesis statement, and ten minutes in all the critique I've gotten is nitpicks. I would've preferred a bit at the start, even just a minute, where you add some seriousness into declaring what generally doesn't work, such that the upcoming gag summaries inform the basis. I assume your goal was to emphasize how unfocused the plot is here, but the plot does have a goal. So you parallel to the story by doing this too.
Thanks for giving your thoughts! I think you probably thought harder about this comment than I thought about the video's structure while I was making it 😅. I really wasn't looking forward to covering that part of the series, so I kinda just did whatever I thought was fun to get myself through it, but that definitely affected the outcome of the video. I'll take these criticisms into consideration for future videos
Even though I disagree with some of ur points about the arc like pacing and narration...I have to salute u for putting this much effort for a video... Timeline for editing this must be a mess... U have put this much effort for a video and give ur honest thoughts... I respect u so much for it.... Chimera ant arc is so close to my heart the storytelling at its peak... it's not just about gon(the MC) every character matters and their actions too ... I just hope u make more Hunter Hunter video arcs after the anime too... Cus current Arc in the manga have chance to surpass even chimera ant arc for me
Thanks for sticking it out for the whole video even though you didn't agree with everything! The editing process for this one was an absolute nightmare, but it was worth every second. I'll definitely be making a video for the manga chapters after the Election arc. Keep this between us, but the Succesion War is easily my favorite part of the whole series, so I can't wait to get there
@@extraguy790 go to hear that... So excited for the upcoming videos I was expecting the total opposite 😂 cus people complain about too much words Do u know that togashi challenged himself to make an arc with the most named characters in a single arc of shonen jump that's why there's so many factions in that arc But togashi's ability to make distinguish character design is something out of this world fr... Keep up the good work 💪
The amount of words on each page in the Succession War has never really bothered me, although it is pretty funny in a ridiculous way on occasion. I didn't know about that challenge Togashi set for himself, but it explains a lot
Fantastic video, im leaving this comment in hopes that this gets picked up by the algorithm, i feel like you dont see editing this good in videos with less than 1000 views very often
Thanks for watching and for trying to boost the video! I think this one's time has likely passed, but hopefully my new stuff takes off. Looking back, I'm really proud of my editing work here especially, although I think I've grown a lot in all areas since.
I section the arc in 3 parts: 1. Pre King Birth 2. Post King birth, Pre invasion 3. Invasion I think each part got better and thethe last part was nearly a 10. Second part was easily a 9. And the first part was like an 8.5ish.
I personally think Kite's death is the best place to divide the acts as it represents a serious turn in focus and tone, as well as ending with the inciting incident, but I see where you're coming from. I personally think the first part is better than the second, but I value pacing way more than the average person, so that's helps explain my view
@@extraguy790 well for plot reasons, I did it the way I did. The arc starts with attempting to exterminate them before the king is born. They must prevent the kings birth and take them out but they thought they had time due to their understanding of the ants nature. Then the king is born and that’s where it’s seeming impossible to win this because we know the guards are enough to give Netero issues so the king is even more of an issue. Then we have the actual invasion and attempt at taking out the king. The first part was good, really good. Kites death being probably the highest point for me. However I think it was a little slower than the second in terms of pacing. Thats where you get the most exposition and setup for characters and character arcs. The second part is where we get some big character moments for Gon and Killua. Meruems birth is pretty good. Gon gets beat up by kite. I guess it’s more because I prefer the character moments but I didn’t particularly think the pacing was any worse than the first
So I started the video yesterday and finished it earlier today, pretty interesting and I like the humorist side of it. So here are some of my thoughts At times for 2-3 minutes straight it’d feel like the script avoids the core point of the video, spending a lot of time giving definitions to certain concepts but not really going deep into it unfortunately I can see the comparison with the shibuya arc but not really farther than it being a war and the way scenes are connected to each other (not even that much either). You rate the build up of the first act a 8/10 and a 5/10 but give credit to the fulfilment that is later found in the third act?(everything involving palm, knuckle, shoot, ikalgo, welfin), It’s not at all like a Martin Scorsese movie, what I mean is that you can’t just shorten the arc because here you have an arc in a story that will have a permanent impact on the rest of the series, if it’s Koala, Welfin, Brovada, Gyro, Palm. You can delete so much stuff but it will kill so much potential in the process right? Let’s take Welfin’s character as an example, at first you see him during the war and you’re not interested in him at all because you want to see the squad’s pov, theoretically deleting all his moments doesn’t really change the scenario that much. Except when he says Komugi but that’s a way to show how Meruem has evolved so it’s irrelevant. Experiencing the fulfilment of his conversation with Brovada is magnificent! But again without the « deletable scenes » it would’ve been meh whatever, and that’s also what’s missing in other war arcs! Another one is Koala but there’s no need to develop you get my point surely It feels like during the entire video you point out what Togashi does and is saying that it’s objectively a strong point or a weak point. The addition of the narrator really ascends a lot of scenes in the arc and without him we would barely catch what’s going on. I can give so many examples that develops x and y ‘s relationships. Whether it’s Shoot, Welfin, Ikalgo, Netero, Meruem and especially Killua, who at that time couldn’t even speak because of his mental state regarding Gon. Hearing a monologue is much less emotional than what the narrator brings. The stair scene is the perfect example of what Togashi does perfectly in the arc and it wouldn’t be as good without the fact that it’s slow. This is what is missing in most of the war arcs including shibuya, a war brings immense and terrifying stress to the human body that will bring a million thoughts at once, here you feel that it’s the case with how you explore every characters mental state. I feel like you don’t really explore that part of the arc in your video. (How you can make a video on what’s happening in a chronological order during the war) All in all the video is good, you just flew past the « flaws » and made it sounds like it’s objectively bad when it isn’t Im looking forward to the Election arc guide
Thanks for taking the time to type out your thoughts! You made a lot of points, so I'll do my best to hit them all, but I'll probably miss some. I agree with you on the point about over explaining. I definitely have a tendency to go overboard. For the narrator, I agree that there's plenty of very necessary information in his words, but I feel like most of it could have been communicated in a different way that's less intrusive on the atmosphere of scenes like Gon's battle with Pitou. There's plenty of occasions we're I'm completely okay with the narration though. It only sometimes becomes a problem for me. When I criticize the buildup to the climax, I don't mean that anything should be cut entirely (with a few rare exceptions). I more meant that every individual plot point probably could have been shortened to increase the pace and not much meaning would have been lost. I don't really remember what my exact words were in the video, so I might just be repeating myself here. I think I went into that kind of stuff more in the other two Chimera Ant videos on my channel, which I'm not sure if you watched. If some things were unclear or unaddressed, it might be because this was meant to be the third part of a series. Either way, thanks a ton for taking the time to watch and comment! The Election arc guide is in production, although it's gonna be a bit of a wait. There's some other videos and also just real life to get to first, but hopefully we'll be there soon enough.
glad welfin at least got a shout out. i'm ecstatic to see how his story, gon's, & gyro's collide in...30 years from now ig
I can't wait to think about Gon and Gyro's long awaited collision in my head for the rest of my life and then ultimately die unsatisfied without ever getting to actually read it🙃. Thanks for watching!
STONE OCEAN OST DURING HXH VIDEO POGGGGGGG
Also, of course Stone Ocean OST! How could I not? It is the best Jojo part after all
good jokes, and hope to see you get confident past the over the top self deprecation. that small bit aside, this is a really good critique. thanks for doing it. i’ll check out your other work for sure!
Thanks for the kind words and for watching! I may have gone a bit overboard making fun of myself in this video, although I think it's much more noticeable here than in most of my others. If I remember correctly, I was trying to play everything up for comedy more so than usua in this one
I get the part about the narrator for the parts I can remember. Mainly when Gon punches pitoh. Right at that moment, all my mind wants is to revel in that moment. The narrator provides a little insight into it, but it's a very solemn moment that's broken up by talking
I'm usually fine with him explaining stuff like abilities and lore which are too complicated for the viewer/reader to pick up naturally, but I totally agree that I'd rather be allowed to basque in a moment like this which doesn't require any explanation
great video, hopefully you can review others stories as well, I hope people remember to pray for Palestinians
23:12 dont lie we all know my goat punching the milkman was top 3 moments in anime "DIE YOU ASSHOLE!!!" will go down in history

Thanks for watching! I watched Yu Yu Hakusho dubbed, so the pronunciations I used are just way to drilled into my brain to ever be corrected
zero mention of shaiapouf in a postive review on this arc is beyond criminal
I have indeed committed sins that I will never be able to repent for. I originally was going to go into detail on every individual character featured in the arc, but then I realized the video was going to be four hours long so I decided to cut some stuff

Good stuff man
Great vid, also borderlands 2 music or am I insane??
You're definitely not insane. I believe the song you're referencing is the Borderlands 3 Sanctuary theme, so close enough
huge disagree on your points about the narrator, the narration felt like reading a really good book and the wording of everything is perfect. it lays out indescribable (from the perspective of the characters) emotions happening too quickly for the characters to even think about it. to me the arc would be worse without it and it’s one of my personally favorite elements.
I've heard a lot of disagreements over my opinion towards the narrator, and a large part of it is definitely my own personal opinion. I think he works fine some times and would have been great in more moderation, but as it stands he's a bit distracting to me. Not a major complaint towards the arc, but one I still felt worth bringing up. I also definitely played up how much I dislike narration in the script for a joke, so the video isn't fully representative of my actual feelings towards it. Thanks for watching!
@@extraguy790 ofc! you’re allowed to feel that way we all got different tastes and opinions. it was a good video, I enjoyed your analysis!
The arc would not be worse. You watched previous arcs of this show without this much narration and it didn't hurt the show.
@@addster124 are you stupid?
Just want to mention, he does have a nen ability. It's eating nen users gives him parts of or their whole ability. Besides that little bit, I absolutely love this, and it's always nice to see how different people's perspectives on this. One of my friends actually thinks Green Island and Yorknew are both much better than this masterpiece of an arc so it's not too surprising for this to have somethings I disagree with. You worded your points amazingly while not sounding as though you are just reading a script.
Also, one of the only villains I've ever actually cried to, I bawled my eyes out during the King's final game.
Hey, thanks for watching! Man, I legitimately forgot he had that ability. I know I knew about it at one point, but my brain must have simply deleted that information. I would have to agree with your friend on Yorknew being a better arc overall, but me and them might have to have a boxing match over that Greed Island take😆.
song name in 1:11 please great video btw 🙏
I believe that song is "Weather Report Theme" from JJBA Stone Ocean. Thanks for watching!
Nothing will ever top the Chimera ant arc finale of meruem and komugi in my opinion. It was perfection
Couldn't agree more. No other story has ever made me feel quite the same way as that final game of gungi, which is why Meruem is one of my favorite characters in all of fiction. No amount of small problems or petty complaints can ever change that
the darts fight is actually one of my fave in the series lol
No disrespect or hate intended. It's not my jam but I can see why someone would hypothetically like it
@@extraguy790 nah totes dw about it lol it comes down to different tastes is all
considering how much you like the Spider, i'd love a review on the Succession War so far once you've reviewed the Election! ;o
oh also, it WAS the Greed Island guy with the Nen Exorcism that got rid of Kurapika's Nen Curse lol, idk how you came to the conclusion that he didn't do it.
I do plan on getting to the Succession War after the election, and I've got a whole lot to say on that one. I'm kinda struggling to imagine writing the script for that video cause I don't even know where to start. As far as the Nen exorcism goes, I am aware that the guy was the one who got rid of the curse, but I think I wrote it that way cause I thought it was funnier and I was shit posting for most of the Greed Island video. If I could go back and change that, I probably would. Thanks for watching!
