Vash The Stampede's story hits you right at your core. Despite his unhuman origins, our journey through Trigun can't be described as anything but human. It's a visceral and real take on life, its issues, and the problems we all face. Vash is our vessel through this story and it makes him one of my favorite anime characters of all time.

Hi everyone this is Mike! Thanks for stopping by again! Im at TooManyGames right now so im a bit busy but we had a lot of fun making this video! Always a treat to go back to the classics. If you didnt know we are a part of the Anituber Anthology this year on @underthescopereviews you should check it out, the whole video is amazing!
We'll see you next week!

Holy shit thank you so much for doing an analysis on my favorite anime character of all time. Trigun literally saved my life from depression and made me view the world and In a more philosophic and beautiful light. It's so poetic with its storytelling and relatable especially and the crazy world that we live in today. I cannot thank you enough because this show deserves all the credit that it can get
Crouching Moron, Hidden Bad Ass ..... perfect! Early Adult Swim is unparalleled in terms of television blocks. Trigun, Cowboy Bepop, ATHF, Sealab 2020, Inuyasha, FLCL, and Home Movies
You should read the manga and you'll see what kind of shit he really goes through. I'm just saying buts it's pretty deeper then the anime
I can give u a link and give u some info on why the manga and anime are SO different
And trigun-(maximum) is the best manga ever. Also, not trying to be an ass tho
For someone who only watched the movie, Vash seemed like John Wick who got the assassin's training but actually wanted to become a therapist
wow, that actually sums up Vash
lol gtfo, he's superman or goku wit a inferiority complex & mad emotional/moral codependency; he's tha yin to knives yang. ig he WANTS to be like a spiritual therapist/blameless angelic martyr savior figure, but one of tha main points of tha story is his journey to tha realization dat even a superhuman cant play god, at least witout getting ones hands dirty
I watch Trigun in 3 periods in my life:
As a kid , when I was naïve and I thought everything is black and white
As a young male living dark times loosing hope and deciding to bend the rules
As an Adult understanding my past and fixing it to be a better person today.
All three periods of my life Trigun hit home.
This is why I truly love this anime
Same Inwatched it in high school when I just wanted action and violence, and now as an adult I rewatch it for the heart and the idealism.
All good stories have the capacity to teach us new things in different parts of our lives. Good points.
Watch new one its cool im tell my twin to watch it lol
Same shit with Gurren Lagann, just hits hard differently each time
I watched it when I was 30, years after it came out. It still managed to leave a mark, so I recently re-watched it. Even better than I remember.
I pray every day that TRIGUN will get the brotherhood treatment
Schlomo Von Goldberg Same
@@aarondev3218 Yeah...I did a fanart of Vash a few years ago after watching the series again...and I'm SO about that Trigun Brotherhood life....
Same
That would be bittersweet. On one hand, the story could be touched up and pacing improved, but on the other, I strongly doubt that it will get the budget/talent required to match the originals animation and art. The attention to detail in the original anime is legendary and still some of the best in all of anime. Take for example in the first episode, when they are blowing away the bar, they had accurate modeling of the innards of the things getting destroyed; imagine how long it took just to draw the jukebox alone getting torn apart.
Then there is the shading. This is purely a matter of option, but I feel the old softer hand shading suits the show better than modern computer shading. No studio really does the old style anymore, so even if you getting a top notch studio it would almost certainly be the modern style.
All things considered, I would still watch it. Not like it could harm the original, but there are other shows that I feel need the treatment more. Lets not forget that Jojo's was a failed anime(OVA) until the remake...
Schlomo Von Goldberg is classic don't need that
"It is possible to make no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That's life."
Had to stop the video. Just the memories that came up when I heard “Double Dollar” made me want to rewatch the series.

Funny how many people who watched Trigun just shit on Vash a lot as a character and often calls him a coward for not killing those who chase him when they probably can't commit murder themselves. (maybe some would but they'll be overwhelmed with hesitation before doing so.)
Oblivious Edgechild
Agreed. It's all fun and games until you gotta make the hard choices. I know I feel that way about mods and the extent I'd go, but when my former bastard friends would say dumb shit like "oh people gotta die for the good of humanity" or liberally throwing around pedoes and what not deserving capital punishment I said could you put bullet in someone's head yourself? could you do it in front of their family? their kids? what about if you had to pull the trigger on their kids?
Until you know your moral limits it ain't something to play with. These are people's lives, struggles, you're hurting way more than you realize
But yeah mods are definitely evil enough to where I'd just ignore any regret or shame. It's what soldiers do. When they gotta make an instant decision and they know they did some really horrible shit all so their country can make some money, that's why they come back with PTSD.
I never understood those people. Personally, it's exactly Vash's force of will in keeping his moral code no matter how hard, impossible and painful it was that made him seem so strong to the point where he adapted to surviving without having to kill despite being able to easily do so with his skills. He's the opposite of a coward. In Vash's place, it would've been easier to just kill than otherwise yet he never chose that path until there was no other choice as it wasn't just his life on the line anymore, but others'.
I think there are layers to the whole spider/butterfly motif that you are missing here. Sure, it is true (and one of the best parts of the show) that Knives was proven right - you can't always save both the spider and the butterfly. You can be forced into the situation where one must die and you have to choose. But, I think there was a second point brought out at the end, which is that in order to destroy all the spiders, Knives became one himself and that was the danger of his philosophy. Vash, on the other hand, spent all of those years fighting with himself to keep him from becoming the merciless predator. AND that is the struggle that we all have to deal with which the show was pointing to the whole time.
When Rem said "the ticket to the future is always blank" it changed me. It had never occurred to me that I would not always be beaten by my father.
Its so true. We write our own futures. We have the ability to change how our lives go.
I know that those experiences leave scars, but how are you?
you aight bro?
Saving everyone was never the key issue, I think. He was always looking to the past for answers, and he realized he needed to choose his own path. I mean it's literally what he said at the end.
I found Trigun through Trigun Stampede and- well- my god. I can’t believe I didn’t watch the og Trigun as a kid. I can see 11 year old 6th grade me, during one of the darkest moments of my life, watching this and learning from Vash. I’m glad I found it now, because now I can experience that. Vash is a beautifully written character for how human he is, and I love that so much. It’s wonderful
God damn guys. Straight from the space anthology to this. Thank you for keeping my weekend entertaining xD.
I always liked Trigun and Blue Gender, they dont make animes like those anymore.
im guessing blue gender isnt about gender.. but if someone in todays world tried to reboot it it would be full of tumblr fake gender trash
@@sasukekuniski1959 First off, fuck off with the 4chan edgy talk. Fake genders are the silly shit people make up like attack helicopters. Let people be what they wanna be, and call them what they wanna be called. It doesn't hurt you any.
Second, the series is about aliens and surviving in a basically unwinnable situation. The name is probably Engrish-ed because it sounded cool to the writer, who cares. See popular stuff with names like Bleach, when cleaning supplies don't have much to do with it and the meaning is kind of a sideways reference to a cultural thing.
Fuck da transport helicopters!
@@sasukekuniski1959 huh didnt expect that answer but oh well. Blue Gender is actually a pretty decent mature sci-fi anime about overpopulation and aliens that took the world from mankind. It does have a stupid name yeah but its really good, you should definitely look it up. Trigun also has a stupid name I mean Trigun what does it even mean. About the 4chan stuff, just dont overgenerelaize.

I have a gigantic backlog of shows I need to watch but now I'm inspired to restart Trigun for the umpteenth time. I think I'll finally give the manga read as well.
Be warned, the manga is MUCH darker. I think I made it less than halfway through. I don't usually mind dark stuff but the extreme contrast to the tone of the anime was just too jarring for me.

Johnny Von Bosch has the most sincere voice I've ever heard. They couldn't have picked a better choice to sell the character of Vash in any other point in history, and that's truly amazing to me.
Even if the Trigun anime dub came out a mere decade later in Johnny's career, it would not have been the same. It still would've been excellent, don't get me wrong, but there's a raw edge to his voice at the age of the recordings that turned the performance into something truly special and timeless.
Well, guess I know what I'm rewatching again in the near future.
*Yong not Von
Oh Look Wild Arms Music on a Trigun video yep that fits near perfect.
very cool amazing video your did really well in the anthology also good timing waiting for the premiere to finish keeping me entertained thanks
thanks so much! Yeah we specifically didn't want to release during the anthology! Really glad you enjoyed it!
Most underrated amazing thing about this video? The Wild Arms theme playing in the intro. SO many similarities to be made...
I admit, Trigun, is one of those anime’s that are a true masterpiece, but also, in so far as to say, the dub is just as good as the sub, and both are amazing.
I still remember an old AMV for a trigun and bebop crossover, so good....🥰
tainted donuts?
That was therapy. I could spend all day listening to you talk. I feel like I've learned so much in a time I'm feeling so unsteady
"We all have to break our moral code"
That's where you are wrong kiddo.
You dont have to BREAK your moral code, but blind idealism at the expense of realism is naive to the point of foolishness.
Sticking to your morals is great, but it is just as important to be pragmatic sometimes.
Yeah that came off as a bit edgy with that conclusion even though in the anime and manga Vash tries to redeem Knives even after breaking his moral code.
7:25 holy shit! I haven't thought about this in years, but when I was in daycare, I saw a bee in the grass outside and I trapped it under a clear cup so I could look at it (with a full intention of letting it go I just wanted to look at it cuz it was cool) and as soon as I lift the cup some child bitch stomps on it. It was scarring for me funnily enough, despite the fact that to this day, I flinch anytime I hear a buzzing insect noise near my head. The last thing I would have intended was to hurt the bee in any way. And this scene totally resonates with my childhood.
Trigun is an excellent, underrated series. Nice work here, laying out Vash's story for those not in the know.
P.S.: please do a video on Roger Smith (Big O)
Trigun was the first manga I picked up and the first series to complete. If it wasn't for that series, my love for creating comics would've stopped years ago.
2:11 my life is already incomplete for not watching dragonball Z, naruto, or experiencing high school
Looking forward to an analysis of the manga! I'd love to see your views ofhow you see characters like Livio!
A lot of people are gonna miss this, but great fucking choice on the music, (the GUN ps2 game theme)
One of the first anime i ever watched, one of the ones that hooked me into anime in general. World of contrast between then and now when it comes to good shows.
Fun fact, Vash's coat is named "Geranium" after the flowers Rem enjoyed observing from orbit. In the original, there was some dialogue that drew the watcher in to understand it's something Vash had made as a momento of Rem. In the remake they're just like "here ya go!" and the value of the coat as a homage to Rem is completely lost. The emotional world building done in the original is soo soo much better than the remake. I was disappointed to see how much emotion was stripped from the original work.
Nice job using Wild arms music in the soundtrack. Hit me with a wave of nostalgia.
“Crouching moron, hidden badass.” Perfect 😂 Great video, as always
"Love and PEACE!"
Legato is such a memorable villain. Someone so horrifying, monstrous, and evil…but also so pathetic and tragic. Knowing the backstory he has in the manga and the absolute HELL that he was put through when he was just a kid, how that broke him and twisted him into becoming so horrible. Even though it’s not delved into in the show, something in the way he’s speaking to Vash suggests not only was he trying to break Vash, he really, truly wanted to die. He just wanted all of his suffering to end. Nothing will excuse the things he’s done, but I still feel some sadness for him in that moment. If his manga backstory is canon to the anime, Vash putting a bullet in his head is pretty much a mercy.
Nicely done. You broke this down PERFECTLY. I actually got chills.
Wish they’d adapt the rest of the manga properly
I haven't seen Trigun in well over 15 years. This video brought back so much nostalgia.
Thank you for this video. I showed it to some friends and it made them watch the entire show.
Trigun will always be a favorite. I was so captivated by this anime as a teen. Thanks for this content, one can only appreciate something more with more angles. 😃👍
Legato is such an underrated villain in anime
2:25 - 2:40 That music was driving me crazy, I couldn't quite place it... but it was Pokemon snap! Thanks for the nostalgic feels, it fit pretty well for Trigun : P
if you guys haven't already you should really try reading the manga there's a ton more content and it's awesome
Yea honestly it kinda bugs me that this is like the most viewed Trigun video on UA-cam and doesn’t even acknowledge that’s there’s a manga at all
I love your videos Man, please keep doing them. It's awesome to see someone who had the same childhood I did, watching these shows.
Yeah I’m definitely gonna start watching Trigun now
Oh my god Trigun + Wild Arms world map theme! I don't need anything else, but I'm still gonna watch the video! ;) (I know I'm late, I'm new)
How have I missed your channel??? 😱😱😱 You have no idea of how many anime fans I know that have NEVER heard of Trigun!
Its so cool that im STILL able to learn new things about a show that I've watched a million times.
I watched the spaghetti western trinity films and they reminded me of vash there's even a trigun episode referencing trinity
I damn near started shedding tears again just watching the scenes. One of the GREAT animes, forever.
Rem Saverem, in my opinion, is the greatest single episode I have ever seen in any anime ever.
you keep saying that they’re “plants” describing them as if they’re literal grass like beings as opposed to be POWER plants, which is what i’m pretty sure was implied when the anime/manga referred to them
Yes but there is an interesting parallel with normal plants as well - they can save people and kill people.
The anime were more muddy about them actually,
Absolutely love the choice of music. Bastion is one of my favorite games on steam. I Recommend every one give it a try. And the music is great lol.
Great take man. Trigun is my N1 anime to this day. Sucks that there isn't an official blu-ray, I'd buy that in a heartbeat.
I used to think this show was overly simple, too black-and-white. It's amazing how14 years of living can change your perspective.
Great Vid! Well edited, always enjoyed Trigun as a kid. Glad there are still others.
I absolutely luv Trigun, still makes me cry at times whenever I rewatch it. Luv the series
The music from Bastion fits so right for this essay.
Loving the GUN OST in the background! 1:08
Good choice using the Bastion ost for the video. It's a good fit.
Wow man almost forgot about this show.
Going to have to re-watch.
I realize I'm pretty late to this review, but it's an incredibly apt description of why I've loved this masterpiece artwork of an anime since childhood. Also, nice use of the Bastion soundtrack.
the one episode I loved and cried during this entire episode is 25, " live through " where it's just him, Milly and Meryl in a town far away, he regrets so much at that episode, taking a toll even killing one person, the weight he has been carrying broke down, leaving remnants in the dusty desert. Even though Meryl doesn't know much about vash, she tried to comfort him, even just a little, she tried in the few episodes back, but she can't, now in this episode, she was fully taken so much hate on vash, that she stood up and said " everybody has a future," and "no one has the right to take the life of one another". that broke me every time, everytime i cried because i can feel the toll he's been carrying,
its an underrated anime for so long and i want people to notice this anime more, its not a complex story that can have twist and turns, but it is a must seen anime that i think people ignores, vash's moral made every story of the genre more overrated.
Main point being morality and right is a bending circle, not a rule book.
Choices and actions change the conditions, and not adapting and following the old rules comes at a cost at the prize of the inevitable.
Trigun, the story of some guy who's long since died inside just going through the motions while trying to make sure no one dies around him.
Usually I’m really embarrassed about sharing my interests with people but I’ve never been embarrassed telling people trigun is my favorite show. It’s just too good to not share w people
he's really a broken man that hide his feelings for being a comedic relief. soo sad.
In the anime no one dies directly in the destruction of July, which makes Vash a lot less tragic.
I can dig it, we're still immature and must be who we are.
I actually finished this anime series and let me say in every episode I cried on it
I'm a new Trigun watcher, and my *one* critic of the show was waiting so long to give us more of his past. I felt like too much backstory was squished into the last episode, and they didn't need to necessarily flesh out the backstory more, but tell us it a bit earlier. I personally think it would have made the last few episodes more impactful emotionally had I known more of the backstory of him and Knives. Even if they had named dropped Knives much earlier without us knowing who he was. But I'm also coming off of watching Cowboy Bebop so I might have a Vicious/Spike mindset.
No wonder you liked that one - regarding the Cowboy Bebop poster in the back at your wall.... :)
Back here after seeing the trailer for Trigun Stampede. It seems to be a sort of prequel, but I hope we will get a full proper adaptation of the manga.
Huge coincidence you released this video on my exs birthday. Thank you, I feel different now.
7:26 who the fuck smash a spider with his bare Hand? the kid is metal as fuck
A show that will always be perfect, never will be a reboot.
Man, why do so many anime love duality as a theme so much?
Perfect take on this show. Very well done 👍
_"Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Vash the Stampede?"_
This has to be in the same universe as cowboy Bebop
Dude you would LOVE the manga!
I think while the anime tends to capture the overall essence of it. It leaves out so many characters and details that were major turning points. Like Tesla or how when plants age their hair turns black.
I wasnt ready when I watched episode 17 as a kid, I had no clue what was going on but I felt a lot of emotions
Vash gun is actually ahead of it's time the recoil on it is genius the fact the barrel of the gun is flipped so your shooting directly from the center of n I would assume the thick nickel on top is adding weight to help it from kicking back
Telling people it's a SPACE western is a spoiler. When I was a kid, the fact that it was a different planet threw me a curve ball, and it's found out until 2/3 into the show.
Loved the Jade Empire music in the video.
Wild arms theme music? Omg love it.
Ok so no Wolfwood representation besides the scene where Vash walks away? We talked about foils right? Otherwise I vibe with this a lot. It hits most of it. Well done.
Holy shitt I was waaay too young to understand that, everything, at the time I watched Trigun... I guess I have to go another round. Thanks! great video!! Goes straight into my "deep Anime shitt and other things" Playlist :)
"Ideals are nothing more than hopes, in the end, its nothing more than smoke and mirrors." Goddam this hit me hard.
I loved tri-gun. Also the dub is really good. although i didnt really think toooo deeply on it and mostly took it at face value. i did think the pay off of learning vashs back story was great. the animation still holds up. This show is actually really similar to cowboy bebop now that i think about it.
Trigun has turned into almost an unknown anime in the ever growing popularity that anime has attained. Trigun is a CLASSIC if you haven't seen it you're missing out. Not only from the story within but at the end of every episode there's a monologue about various deeper topics that the series is addressing. Its great from start to finish.
New trigun sequelllllllll
Trigun was the first anime I ever saw, I remember feeling so disquieted towards the end.
The themes were heavy, the characters were deep and message was done so well.
I hate to think this show is not up there with the likes of Cowboy Bebop. It asked philosophical questions, it put idealism against reality and it stuck with me over a decade later.
I miss these types of shows.
its kinda funny cause it wasnt even that popular in Japan, its main success was in the US
@@chancethewrapperrwe don’t speak of stampede
I saw this show at around 13 & it changed me. I'd come from a family of naricissists & just really angry people, so seeing someone so deeply care for life made the contrast blinding. It's a big reason why I became a firefighter & (years later) an EMT also.
I'm sure someone told you this before, but thank you.
@Gustavos Revenge everyone is allowed a little bit of narcissism, nothing completely wrong with that.
@Gustavos Revenge what does your statement say about you?
Oh god this is awesome.
@Gustavos Revenge Sounds to me like you don't understand narcissism very well.

Yes indeed

R.I.P. NICHOLAS D. WOLFWOOD. 😭
Same here, im not am anime person but trigun will always have a special place in my heart, i loved that anime.
I was so emotional when Wolfwood died. I felt Vash lost a brother. Milly lost a lover. And the orphanage lost their hero. Right after his confession you hear this:
"I'm not ready yet! There's still so much left to be done. I want to stay, with them! I don't want to die!" God damn does it hit the feels.

jeremiah wilson thank you i feel like people don’t understand how great it really is
The nickname they had was Angels, self preservation is natural. Knives is only a villain because he was written that way but progress of civilization is built on destruction of the old, vash is a beta male a slave willing to sacrifice everything even the future for a moral code that is impossible to maintain.
@@jerryrose6895 what a load of horse shit. You should really look up what apha male is. Like scientifically not the rape culture inductive one. Next the progression of a civilization depended on the integration and improvement of the old. In fact the civilizations that are extinct today failed to do so. Now Kives being a villain is up to debate to a degree why one can argue that his philosophy is right his actions are the definition of villain like. Last point is that vash grows and is free from his experiences of the past. He still chooses not to kill therefore keeping his "unreasonable expectations" intact. He also realizes that there is a price to be paid for his code depending on the price he will break it.
Do yourself a favor and watch the anime before you talk out of your ass.

-Johnny Cash
Fitting, since I, in a synaesthesia like sort of way, always found Johnny Cash and Trigun to be very alike I guess it's the wild west vibe of country with the sad, but still able to be goofy, and badass sinner looking for love and redemption. Simply put; if Cowboy Bebop is Miles Davis jazz, Trigun is Johnny Cash.
@@theyakkoman huh. What an interesting thought. I've only heard the most famous Johnny Cash songs. Following your idea of the equivalency between Trigun and Johnny Cash, what do you think are the top 3 or 5 songs that best encapsule that spirit?
The real tragedy is that none of the other main characters ever TRULY find out what Vash actually is.
I think Wolfwopd knew what Vash really is. Or maybe I'm just remembering the manga version more than the anime.
Nicholas d wolfwood worked for knives
He knew what that noodle noggin was
I think it's implied that towards the end of the series (in episode 25 I believe) that Vash basically tells Meryl his whole back story. It's during a scene where it cuts in on him having just told her everything, and then she asks him what he's going to do about Knives (or something like that, it's been a while since I've watched it).
There's a scene in the manga where Meryl lives most/all of Vash's past experiences after touching his angel form.
He's a plant...lol.
Funny enough, I always thought this was perhaps Johnny Yong Bosch’s best role despite being one of his first VA roles
Wait a minute.... JOHNNY DID HIS VOICE?! HOLY SHIT!! I am SO doing a mod replacing one of Nero's Devil Breaker with Vash's arm in Devil May Cry 5!!
Yup, and since then, all the characters he has voiced, I think of vash the stampede!
I actually finished watching Bleach (Johnny voices Ichigo) before watching Trigun, so when I first heard Vash speak I was like "sup John, now I know the dub is gonna be good."
Yong Bosch is my favorite VA. Any character he voices is always a great one
@@zazoo5557 are you... me??
I've heard it said that the ultimate theme of Trigun is "Just because perfection is unattainable is no reason to not strive for it."
I've Also Been Using The Idea That:
We don't need to be perfect, because we are perfect just the way you are.
It's our own little imperfections about us that make us who we are, & that's what makes us perfect.
People are trying to tell us that we'll never be perfect & that we need to stop trying to be, & just give up on trying to be perfect.
In the end, just because the world isn't perfect, doesn't mean that it's not perfect to us.
To understand the word "Perfection", you must first look at it from all angles. Then apply each of those angles,
& ask yourself the question? What does "Perfection" actually mean to you as a living being?
Don't try to change the world. Trying to become perfect, or more perfect is only going to make things worst,
it's only going to delude you away from perfection, instead of just simply being perfectly who you are.
People get this idea that you need to be someone else just because you shouldn't feel comfortably in
your own skin for being who you already are, but that is a complete lie. Why should we pretend to be
something we are not? We make our own choices in life, & do our own things, & to tell us that this isn't
who we should be, that we should be someone else is just wrong. We are this way, because we chose
to be this way, & we should know more of who we are then some random stranger who we've never met.
We are just perfect in that sense, & nothing can or should change that, but us & ourselves.
Something like that, =D
These are many quotes i've used, & none of them are from any one source material.
Trigun is a great Anime. I can't speak for the Manga, because i've never read any Manga,
but I don't need to read the Manga to know the Anime is good. I've already seen it, & know it's good. =D
that really does it justice
If you chase perfection, you will catch exelence.
And I think that's my new tattoo
@@KenyoMurabu I simply run on the moral code respect: “treat others the way you want to be treated.” It can be easily flipped as in reverse it also means “others treat you the way they want to be treated.” Absolutism can never be upheld and should only be treated as a goal, but an adaptable belief lets you make decisions on an as needed basis rather than simply ignoring the situation or inevitable future.
