| I love this show! It has the right amount of humor and action, so it is very enjoyable. Do you agree? |
 |
| Trigun is undoubtedly underrated. I'm a huge fan of Vash and the gang. :) |
| I'm a little ashamed to admit I haven't seen it. :X Soon, though! |
     |
| i have seen a few episodes on adult swim ill see the rest soon enough |
| ....That polls biased! lol, Trigun is great. I don't really think its underrated though =/ |
 |
| trigun is great but i dont see how its underrated either |
 |
| The poll is a joke. And by underrated I mean that it should be in the top 10 anime. |
|
| I really hated the humor in this one... |
Aw. This show was great! I loved it. Even the dubbing. :o] |
 |
| Ya I watch it dubbed. Vash's voice actor is awesome. |
| I'm one of the few that thinks the show is actually overrated =/ |

|
| Like my favorite anime, but i know some people who don't like it.... *ooo shiny new sub-forum* < just noticed it here..... |
| I think Trigun gets so much hype it raises the new watchers expectations too high. I think that if I was recommending this series to a friend I would be like "Its really good" and leave it at that. That being said its one of my top 5 favorite animes. |

| overrated, imo |

And the actually story between him and his brother is amazing. |

| T.T </3 Your breaking my heart Chelle. CB and Trigun are my two favorites but I understand why you dont like them. |

Neverender said: Seriously, who hates on Cowboy Bebop? That's like blasphemy My reasons are outlined in the CB thread (I did outline them, didn't I?) |
| They are, but its still sad. I was just so amazed by the series as a whole. Vash is very kool, a pacifists hero and uses a weapon made for killing. That is always a win imo. Btw, My favorite character from this series is Midvalley the hornfreak. (dont go their chelle :P) His Saxaphone was amazing and his character reminds me of blues and jazz. |
|
| **zips lips** (**snickers under her breath**) |
| Indeed, underrated. |
| Definitely not underrated. It doesn't help that a friend over-hyped this before I watched it. Not to mention that every time I finally started warming up to the series, there was some complete turn-off -_- |

Sanada_Saizo said: What do you consider turn-offs anyway? I just follow the flow, I hold out judging for bigger anime aspects, like general atmosphere, story line or how enthusiastic I am after about 10 eps. Also, Hajime no Ippo is well popular, but I'm not really getting into it at all (after 10 eps). Is it going to change for the better, or is this going to be 70+ eps of the "ohmigod how is he still standing, what a talent, ohmigod" routine? One major turn-off I'd name is how they zoomed away from at least one Wolfwood fight, just let us hear the gunshots, and zoomed to him again to show him as the victor. zomg, awesome job Wolfwood! >_> Also, the end of episode 21 was a disaster. Doofus Brad actually responding to the gunshot before Hero Vash? Gimmi a break. I don't want to turn this into a pessimistic rant (if it isn't already <_<), so I'll just.. shut up. I usually watch 10 episodes before giving a first judgement too. Never saw Hajime no Ippo, but by the sound of it, I never will =P |

Also, don't let MY sound keep you from trying out shows ;), I'm just very sensitive about these sort of routines... must be a trauma from when I watched DBZ as a kid. A frightened Freeza staring at Goku who's summoning a nuclear bomb the size of a planet... whilst not even considering just intervening for about two frikkin episodes long. Fuc...- getting negative again, sorry. Well, if you're going to be negative too, we can be negative together =P But that one's an anime law! Villians aren't supposed to move whilst their rival is powering up! Just like they can't just use their best and most powerful stuff right away, but have to toy around with the heroes and not notice how said heroes are getting more powerful by the episode! *coughs delicately* |
| Must.. write.. fiction... But yeah, I know what you mean. So many times a small adjustement could've made something so much better. Why don't they do it? To give us stuff to bitch and moan about? =( |
Koreth said: CB has really cool characters, but a terribly shitty central plot. It's too episodic, and while each may be enjoyable individually, you aren't compelled to see the next one. By the end, you feel like you've gotten nowhere, and you're still confused at how you got there. I adore Cowboy Bebop, but I suppose I have to agree to an extent. I actually liked the central plot... I just wish it had been a little more present. The series is definitely too episodic, but I think its excellence in other areas makes up for that shortcoming quite well. All in all though, I'd recommend Trigun over CB. I'm not really sure how it's overrated, since most of the people I know who've watched it were instant fans, but it's definitely an awesome show. Especially since Vash manages to pull off the naive pacifist type hero bit without being irritating. Most characters like that really get under my skin (like Suzaku in Code Geass - I loathe that guy), but I love Vash. I would like to see an anime series based on the bad guys Heh, I think that's why I like Death Note and Code Geass so much - the heroes could just as easily be passed off as villains. |
 |
| And you're telling us we're off-topic >_> Light and Lulu are <3 as a main character types. I can't even bring myself to call them the heroes. Hell, how many times have I thought "All villians should be like that... *dreamy*"? On the topic of both villian tactics and Trigun, I do have to give them props for sending three of the bad guys after Vash at one point. Even if he didn't face them at the same time, it really was one of those 'warming up to Trigun' moments. |
| If anything Trigun is overrated, Cowboy Bebop was great, even though the main plot wasn't too huge it all worked well and made it a great anime in the big picture, every episode was great (guess there were exceptions but i don't remember exactly) and yes i did feel a drive towards watching the next one |
| I felt compelled to watch Bebop in its entirety, but I've never been able to rewatch it from start to finish. I can do that with shows that have stronger plots, but I just skip around through CB and watch the bits I like most. Samurai Champloo is even worse for that though - its plot is largely nonexistent until the very end. It's a great anime too, but far too episodic. Re: Death Note & Code Geass, Light and Lelouch are virtually the same character - they both have secret identities, sparkling reputations, enormous IQs, and a strong-but-limited special power that they have to think strategically to make the most of. And above all, neither of them are afraid of killing ruthlessly to achieve their goals. I <3 both of them. They're the best sort of heroes, because they aren't heroes at all. |

| I don't see why people seem to hate the ending so much. It's not that much of a cliffhanger, unless my memory has gotten really awful. Sure, it's left somewhat open, but it isn't like there's some big gaping hole left to be filled or a villain left to defeat. I liked it well enough. |

| Meh, basically the only negative thing I ever see people say about Cowboy Bebop is that its episodic. CB is character driven and therefore focuses on the characters more then the central plot (obviously). Its not like on the first episode there was a message that said "THIS ANIME HAS THE GREATEST CENTRAL PLOT EVER" and then went on to disappoint you. One of the CB's biggest themes is "you can never escape from your past." I thought that the episodic nature, combined with that theme actually enhanced the central plot. Spike was trying to escape into the life of a bounty hunter, and thats what we saw throught all those random storylines. I just think that Cowboy Bebop is incredible because it utilizes its characters, structure and theme so well. As for Trigun, as i've said before (and will say again as much as I want, simple because I can) the manga puts the anime to shame imo. If I had read the manga first and then watched the anime....I might have dropped it in disgust. The amount of depth the anime has compared to the manga is pathetic. As for comparing Trigun to Bebop. Its not even a competition as far as im concerned. |
