| The other side of Vash has finally shown and we are getting more hints and pieces of his backstory. This anime finally has my full and undivided attention by this chapter. |
| "Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question. But that's beyond the reach of these small hands." Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| Holy Hannah, this is serious business. |
| Wham. I've got a feeling things are going to keep like this until the end of the series -- if the comedy's done, then this is definitely the beginning of a Cerberus Syndrome. I just hope episode 13 isn't a recap, which it seems like it could be from the preview. |
| Shit got real. This episode improved my opinion of the show. Hopefully they'll keep this pacing up. |
 |
| Blue eyes = badass Vash. Still confused about his past, but they should shed some light on it soon. |
| Hurr durr, I'm a burr. |
| Holy shit, awesome episode!! Even though I have more questions now (who was that in the flashback and where, what's with Rem, is Vash a cyborg???) I feel so satisfied. |
| Trigun got serious'd. And I'm starting to think that the evil-guy with a skull in his arm has some kind of mental powers, when he and Vash talked 5 meters away from each other and no one else could hear them. And that orphan kid was acting weird as'well: Turns down a perfectly good ice cream from a nice lady --> accepts a hot dog from a creepy guy And the mental image of the creepy guy hurting the little girl also hints at psychic powers... And damn! Vash got awesome when he saw innocent bystanders getting hurt. He was really pissed at Legato. Suddenly shifted from the nice guy to something frightening. And loved how Vash used the vault door as a weapon and I had my suspicions about his left arm even before the "Sand-robot-factory-episode." And yet this girl Rem(or Rim?) still has so much power over Vash that he still wouldn't kill someone. |
| Wait, did something serious actually happened in this show? Did Vash actually look as badass as I expected him to be in the first episodes? |
  |
| Geez what happened to this anime? It used to be all silly and fun and now it's gotten really dark... AND I LOVE IT!! Johnny Yong Bosch really showed off some early acting chops here, he's great! Yeah, the English dub isn't perfect but it has that "90's charm" which i generally enjoy. Also, what the hell is Vash anyway? Is he a robot? Is he an alien? An alien robot? Guess i'll have to keep watching to find out ;) |

| nice ep |
 |
| Another great episode. That evil eyes were badass. |
 |
| Is Vash related to inspector gadget ? |
 |
| Those eyes wow |
 |
| That was intense. |
 |
| Woah! What an amazing episode! The best part is when Vash had Monev at gunpoint and was ready to blow his head clean off! I was shocked! Plus this episode has the first appearance of my favorite character, Legato. |
| Definitely enjoying the gradual reveal of Vash's personality. I'd also like to see some light shed on Rem's character. Who may she be? A former lover of Vash's? |
| Any normal man would have blown his head off, got to admire Vash for keeping his composure. Amazing episode. |
| Powerful eyebrows. |
| Best episode so far. I knew Vash's right arm was mechanic or smt like that Vash's blue glowing eyes was true evil. |
| That was one amazing episode. Made me at the edge of my seat at the end. It was fucking stressful. And seeing all those dead people, with all those kids in it, my heart skipped a beat. The new antagonist look promising. Through, I WTFed when they were ''telepatizing'' xD Also there is one thing I don't get, all the dead people, was he only dreaming them, like when the new guy ''crushed'' the girl head? I guess they'll come back on that on the next episode. Anyway, that was an hell of an episode. Really this serie is going in a good direction. Also, I dunno why but I was pretty is arm weren't real, maybe it was because of the lenght. But yeah, made me think about FMA xD |

| Vash really keeps amazing me with his interesting personality and well things sure are getting interesting, I wonder why those though guys are after them but well he sure gets serious when people get killed. |
 |
| It... Just...Got... Real!! So many questions to answer. And we finally see the face of the woman of Vash's dreams. Its funny that they hid her face for so long since with this anime style every "attractive" woman's face looks the same lol. |
| Love and Peace!!! |

I guess they'll come back on that on the next episode. I'm pretty sure those people really are dead. The scene where he talks about dreaming was a flash back I believe. as far as the telepathic communication, I think there's a chance that that... Oh I was gonna say that he might have hacked into the com Vash used to talk to the Kid through the pen, but I now realize that Vash and Legato weren't moving their lips. maybe the pen was just a trick to cover Vash's telepathic ability. As far as the kid is concerned I think he squeezed the kid's head but let go. |
| Love and Peace!!! |
| This was a great episode. The conversation between Vash and Legato was intense. Vash's dark characteristics was written well. The action scenes were exciting to watch. |
| Armageddon was yesterday, today we have a problem. |
| Oh my god. It felt like the previous 11 episodes existed just to set up this one. It's very rare that an anime makes me care about random people getting killed. |
 |
| My favourite episode. Legato just makes everything better worse. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| Legato was awesome and hot! Vash and Legato can have telepathic conversations? WOW! Is he actually the Devil? Maybe the devils son who ran away from hell like one of my favourite movies Little Nicky? That'd be hilarious tbh. Vash had a gun under his arm all along lol. When his eyes went all intense blue he looked like he turned super saiyan or something lol. |
 |
| So Vash's left arm wrapped in leather was indeed robotic this entire time. I wonder why and how Monev was forced to be enslaved for twenty years against his will though. I am sure Vash must have already popped up in that time. Also, is Legato really powerful enough to be able to keep him in check or were there other people who kept the fellow locked up and obedient? Despite how so many people were unconscious or under the rubble after Monev fired his weapons, none of them seemed to have been shot by the bullets directly so I doubt the casualty count was as high as Vash initially imagined. On a side-note, the bag Legato left behind on the bench next to the fountain was never shown to be opened for some reason. What could have been in it? |
 |
| shit's getting real |
 |
| Duuuude! Amazing episode. What a change of pace, holy shit. I'm really hoping the show picks up now. Lollo36 said: Oh my god. It felt like the previous 11 episodes existed just to set up this one. It's very rare that an anime makes me care about random people getting killed. Exactly lol |
| Nice change of pace seeing a new face of Vash, his angry face. |
 |
| Shit got serious in this episode! Vash was actually pretty scary in this episode. |
 |
| I think I watched this episode like three time already. What's with the shy little girl? She rejects ice cream from Meryl, becomes suspicious about a creepy man and accepts a hotdog? Also, that image with Legato pulling her head back was shocking. This episode was scary and those glowing blue eyes Vash had was crazy! I mean, Vash was so aggressive in this episode.O_O Interesting episode but scary... 6.5/10 or 7/10. |
| Numbuh 3, you've got to get off the couch, you cannot sit in that tree house, girl you like Rainbow Monkeys so grab your little shit and then swing! Hand tracks be tracking me to different doorways. In a maze, and I don't know what to do. Guaranteed though, Ima find the emeralds. |
| What a wimpy loser, disappointed by this episode. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| muffin, absolutely muffin! xD |

MaxVdub said: also i wonder if they named the girl in his dreams Rem as a reference to REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep Whoa, I never thought of that! Wow, what an episode! The purple guy was crazed after being stuck underground for so long that he was willing to do anything. It seems like he had lost his humanity. Legato was very creepy in multiple ways, and he seems dangerous like a plague that passes over the land. And Vash nearly lost his cool. The last episode was really losing me and then we have this. Damn. |
| I have to agree with everyone else, that episode was damn amazing. This is my first watch of Trigun and although I love the comedy, I love the serious moments even more. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the series develops and learning more about Vash. |

| Man i'm luving this anime so far ^^ |
| Anyways, this episode was interesting. I am betting that Vash will be revealed to have had a dark past and actually did kill people, he then changed his ways because of that girl we keep seeing in the flashbacks. I also predict that he had a plan to save everyone and nobody was killed, but their city was destroyed. Ah well, we will have to see. Overall, a good episode, 4/5, better than the last one. |
| That was some weird telepathy thing they had going on. Also he should've shot him, such scum doesn't deserve to live. |
| Finaly decided to continue watching this anime after taking it on 1 month break. since stopped after 11 episodes. And it didnt dissapoint at all. This is really the most amazing episode so far out of all . |
