Mixed Feelings
For those who remember, in 1998, there was Trigun. In this animated series, we followed "Vash the stampede", a tall blond guy with full hair, over 100 years old according to rumors. During his adventures through a post apocalyptic world with western sauce, Vash will fight many battles because of the bounty that weighs on his head and his unfortunate tendency to meddle in everything. He will also meet Meryl and Milly, two young women a little naive but determined to follow our protagonist.
Anyway, if you haven’t seen Trigun yet, it may not be the best animated but it’s still very nice.

So let’s go back to Cannon Busters, 2004 and recently animated/updated. In this new anime, "Philly the kid" is our anti-hero and it’s up to him to make us discover a post apo universe with western sauce. It is a guy with hair provided (but brown this time), immortal according to the gossip and who will lead many fights because of the bounty on his head etc... On the way, he will meet two female-looking bots named Sam and Casey.

I think you understand... Even if the background is indeed different from that of Trigun, the whole basic context seems to be consistent with the work of 1998. We unfortunately keep the same flaws: not enough worked characters, problems swept away by explosions and difficulties to immerse themselves.
For the animation, the soundtrack and the quality of the animation, I don’t have much to say, it stays clean without being incredible either.
However, the animation is not finished, so it can still change and grow in the right direction. To follow.
