| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- how the hell he get hit twice by this kid,anyway nice episode |
 |
| Immense as always, did anyone think that the pirate king bloke sounded like Zaraki Kenpachi from Bleach or was that just me? |
 |
| Hmmm I'm wondering about tis Rem as well, I have a feeling the connection between her and Vash and something like the connection between Brandon and Maria from Gungrave. |
| Lol I've noticed the cat too haha as you watch further there should be more cats involve |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| That guys shoulder-pads are the most pimping thing I've seen in my life. |
| lol not worried at all...Vash will take care of that guy with the freakishly large shoulder pads. And hopefully that rotten kid will apologize., because it was mostly his fault for letting them in. |
     |
| Nice episode. Vash took a little more of a beating than usual haha, he really has a weakness for the kids and women it seems. Still his psyche is usually on top of the situation =P |
| Vash-san is made of epic WIN ^.^ SHOULDER PADS O.O... |
  |
| I want to see more details on the woman in Vash's vision. I have a feeling she has something to do with his past/loss of memories? |
| Yay a mini-arc! Pretty cool episode so far Milly drunk! xD |
 |
| Good ep. |
| "Nobody's dumb enough to buy such a lame story!" *Vash starts crying* lol :P I have to say, when this series is trying to be funny, it's so damn hilarious xDDDDD; But I don't like songs; it feels corny to me. The animation sucks... or at least I don't like it. Character designs are great, that big guy in the last episode, the one in the first and now Neon... Of course Vash too. |
 |
| For some reason I couldn't care about the brat, nor his reasons for helping the bandits. |
 |
| XD |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |

| "One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it." Oogway |
| Meryl is starting to become a very annoying character. She practically said she wished Vash was dead. He's done nothing but save her life. |
 |
| Those shoulder pads must cost a fortune. |
| How did he get drugged so easily? :( Great ep though. |
| Hurr durr, I'm a burr. |

  |
| Bad guy is a real psycho. Loving it. And Vash faking a pass-out so he wouldn't have to have sex with two saloon girls . . . You had the chance with THE BELT!!  What is with you man!? And I'm failing to see the boy's logic here: Help a criminal gang to rob your fathers steamer(?) - Does not want them to destroy the steamer |
| Who is this Rem person I wonder. Anyway, great episode. |
 |
| Hmm more information about his past. And I can't seem to remember Rem. Shall see in the next episodes :). |
 |
| Was that 3 moons in the sky o.o? I guess this isn't earth. Decent ep, kids kind of a douche helping those bandits did result in quite a few deaths and yet all he cares about is the ship. Looking forward to some action next ep between Vash and giant shoulder pads guy. |

| Quite lovely episode, really starting to like how this story is developing! |

  |
| Boring... I didn't like the manga, so I hope the anime is not going to follow it for long. |
| This episode was a great introduction to the Bad lads Gang. |

| Armageddon was yesterday, today we have a problem. |
| Those shoulder pads doe! |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| That was awesome and funny when Vash bought the kids story lol. I also wonder who the girl is, maybe an ex? |
 |
| Perhaps Kaite's father was kidnapped and held as a hostage by the Bad Lad Gang, which was why he initially chose to aid them. Though that would not have been the simplest method, as they could have then used his father to get to the loot within the sand steamer. I am really just grasping at straws here by trying to come up with reasons for the kid to be less unlikeable than he already is. It was a shame that Elizabeth could not travel together with Vash on the sand steamer, though I suppose she had to remain in Inepril City to further repair the broken-down plants. Even with her seemingly important place in the story regarding to our protagonist's past and his loss of memory, she might be just a random one-off character within the series. |
 |
| This was even worse than the last episode, this show is going downhill. |
| A bit boring, I want more about his past. |
 |
| I really didn't care for this episode. The dream was somewhat interesting. |
 |
| Vash's personality is starting to get on my nerves, shoot something dude!! |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| next episode gonna rock. |
| Worst name for a gang ever. |
| Plot is becoming repetitive, Vash encounters evil guy then wins by luck. Rinse and repeat. I hope the next episode is interesting and they get this over with. 3/5 episode. |
| So basically Vash fucked over the whole ship when he helped that kid. Good job... |
| That man ain't being beautiful, what do? *Panik* This is the first episode to break the 1 episode story arc limit, I'm into that. |
| It looks like Vash actually prefers the drifter life that somehow gives him some peace and quiet at times but trouble continues to follow him around wherever he goes. This was the first time that I've seen someone get killed on-screen in this anime and I have a feeling that this would be a much more common occurence here on out. |
 |
| wonder about that dream vash had, apperantly it's something vital since it's in the opening. and i hope it's not just me to see that vash is recognising the leader. |
| Alright, Neon mad max dreadnought raiders! Vash has so many beautiful and sad tears. What is the cat's name? |
