Title:TrigunGenre:Sci-fi/Western

Company:Geneon

DVD Info:26 episodes, 8 DVD's

Creator:Yasuhiro Nightow/Madhouse

Summary:Vash the Stampede, or "the Humanoid Typhoon", is a man with a $$60 billion price on his head. He is looking for his evil twin brother, Knives, who killed several people on a colony ship where they were cloned 107 years ago. Also in the cast are Meryl Stryfe and Millie Thompson, two insurance agents who are assigned to assess damages caused by him and Wolfwood, a priest who carries a huge cross-shaped gun.

The Good:Despite his reputation, Vash is actually a kind-hearted fool who has never willingly killed anyone.

The Bad:At times, you may wish Vash wasn't so stupid.

Offensive Material:There is a fair amount of violence and some language in the show. Vash and Knives are both genetically engineered. Wolfwood is fairly hypocritical.

Overall:This show is quite entertaining. Vash is a great hero and an admireable character.
