| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- Yeah, this chapter confused the shit out of me. I honestly had no idea what he hell was going on and it seemed as though Nightow (what an awesome name by the way) was just in a rush to finish the manga. I believe I heard the publisher he was working with closed down so...that may have been the case. But, I've chosen to look at this as an extended prologue for Trigun Maximum. Btw, Knives finally appeared and, from what I remember, his appearance seems very different from the TV series. He seems just as psychotic and twisted as I remember, though. It also seems as though he attempted to have Vash destroy the city like he did with July...with weird grotesque arm.. Again, I'm not sure what to make of all this. Hopefully things will make more sense when I read Maximum. But, still, this was a pretty good read. I'll give it an 8, but maybe move it down to a 7 or up to a 9 depending on how Maximum turns out. |

| This manga was rushed, things unfolded way too conviently and all sense of adventure from the anime was not present. Also the artwork was meh. I didn't understand that ending either. What the hell is going on? I'm still curios to see where Maximum will go with this though. Hopefully Maximum wiill make sense and slow down the pacing as well. |
They were ALL confusing as hell lol, the story and art can both be so incomprehensible due to how rushed this manga was. Somehow the anime ended up being awesome by just making it more fun and focusing on the setting and characters over the main plot, but hopefully Maximum will be a lot better. HATUL said: Hopefully Maximum wiill make sense and slow down the pacing as well. ^ Exactly, I hope so too. If it's the same artist the fight scenes will still probably be incomprehensible, but hopefully at least the story will make sense! Why'd the anime have to have such a shit ending lol, I wouldn't be reading this otherwise. 6/10 Overall for this one, I'd already read parts of Maximum after seeing the show. I think I remember the art being equally crappy, but hopefully I was wrong... |

| This was a pretty decent start to the series. Trigun Maximum is where the real action is at or so I've inferred from its much larger length and also due to this version of Trigun being cut short due to publication issues with the magazine it was being serialized in. The characters are likable (I'm in love with Meryl already, although I hope she gets to do more in the future. Millie is pretty cute too) but Jesus Christ, the art, especially during the action scenes, is nearly incomprehensible. You have to stare at it for minutes on end to make heads and tails out of it and even then, some of the proportions and figures seem out of whack. Hopefully that gets better, since action seems to be kind of a big part of this manga. I do like some of the more philosophical musings in this ("The ticket to your future is always blank" is going to stick with me for a while), it doesn't seem forced like it does in other battle manga. |
| I like how the manga introduced Knives, we never see exactly where he came from in the anime but the way we first see The Cyclope kill herself and then we suddenly cut to Knives' introductión and the moon being blown up felt rushed and lacked the impact and buildup it had in the anime. |
