Hello Trigun Stampede fans
As someone who doesn’t always really care to watch the anime if I’ve already read the manga I must ask
Is it worth it to watch Stampede?
I’m asking with complete sincerity I adore Trigun and would like to know the pros and cons of the new anime now that it is finished
Decided I will watch it going in with the mindset of a crack fic and will add it to my growing pile of my watch list
Finished this for school took 3 months but I’d say it looks pretty good for my first try at cardboard carving
*throws random Vash at you*
number one rule! never believe ur thoughts after 10 pm . unless its about The Character then believe all of your thoughts wholeheartedly
Hello Trigun Stampede fans
As someone who doesn’t always really care to watch the anime if I’ve already read the manga I must ask
Is it worth it to watch Stampede?
I’m asking with complete sincerity I adore Trigun and would like to know the pros and cons of the new anime now that it is finished
Am looking at what could possibly be the best fic for the specific tags I’m looking for but at the same time I’m terrified to start it because I know it’s going to emotionally wreck me
I see a lot of people who like to treat Vash and Knives and independent plants in general like they're akin to something predatory/carnivorous, but hear me out I think we can get a lot of mileage out of addressing how they can actually be quite herbivore/prey coded.
I don't mean like small timid fragile herbivores, I mean like big, dangerous, deadly herbivores that are dangerous and difficult to kill, many which are often poached and exploited by humans irl but could easily kill them. What I'm saying is that Knives is one of those circus elephants that snaps and goes on a rampage lol. Jokes aside, they're named after, y'know, plants, they're designed and made to be consumed, to provide sustenance, Vash's name is based on the French word for cow, likewise his epithet is "the Stampede". In the 98 anime plants are the butterfly in the "spider and butterfly" metaphor, etc.
To me the fact that they're capable of so much destruction is part of what makes the prey/herbivore reading really interesting/compelling to me with humans taking more of a predator/carnivore role despite being weaker. Plants are basically a type of livestock, Vash has literal chunks taken out of his flesh in service to humanity, Knives comments on whether he'll be eaten someday in the anime as a child, humans need plants to survive in a harsh environment with very little natural sources of food, etc. Even the fact that plants are often depicted with fangs doesn't detract much from this reading cause there are plenty of herbivores that have fangs. Knives takes on a more predatory role narratively but it's made pretty clear that he does so out of fear, and his aggression and acts of consumption towards his own kind come across more as imitation/reflection of humanity in his metaphorical cannibalism rather than something that would be true to his nature under better circumstances.
Also I feel like people almost always equate fictional inhuman species/characters to predatory animals by default because of this idea that something inhuman and potentially dangerous can only ever be a predator, which isn't true to real life. Many herbivores/prey animals are as dangerous if not more dangerous than their predator counterparts. Especially since they often evolve with the need to be able to defend themselves and their young from predation. Knives himself is largely motivated by feeling like cornered prey desperately lashing out to try and avoid him and Vash being devoured. Vash's existence is one of constantly being pursued. And so on.
Anyway yeah I just think it's interesting and fun to thinking of them in those terms sometimes rather than always defaulting to "scary and dangerous and not human = predator".
Honestly one of the best takes I’ve seen on this topic
I always love the scene in the manga when Vash wakes up after the Leonof fight, it's so soft 😭
When Vash wakes up everyone in the area gets excited and rushes over to see him.
Then when Vash starts feeling guilty about how many people died, they try to console him, it's clear they don't blame him.
And then Luida, captain of the Vash Defence Squad, swoops in to tell him that if it wasn't for him and Wolfwood they'd all be dead, and tells him not to say such depressing things because he's family. And then when she tells everyone else to get back to work they all act disappointed about having to leave 😭😭😭
They love him so much 🥹
I'll always love this arc in the manga, it's actually a bit jarring compared to the 98 anime where everyone blames him for what happened and Brad has to defend him before being killed (interesting how Brad is the one who dies in the 98 anime whereas in the manga it's Doc who dies while Brad lives). I don't mean to say the 98 version is bad, it provides good angst in its own way, but I just love how soft and sweet the colony's relationship is with him in the manga, they respect him and enjoy his company, Brad being a bit pissy at first was actually an outlier lol. It makes it that much more bittersweet that Vash can't visit them more often without endangering them. They remember him and get excited to see him even after 10 years have passed.
Also their affection and closeness makes this moment hit like a 10 ton truck going 100mph in hindsight:
The "Maximum" in "Trigun Maximum" is for maximum emotional damage.
Wiggly fish
Omg I hear birds oh god is that the sun 😭 I really am living up to my username now 💔
Can anyone tell that I tried to keep this a random art blog but it’s slowly being taken over by Trigun
Just a really quick art of wholesome after maximum Vash ❤️
It’s them that’s it that’s their whole dynamic
POV: your asked to draw fish but have never actually seen a fish
When one of the housing workers catches you doing something your not supposed to but he lowkey also doing something he’s not supposed to do so you both just slowly back away from each other
Just a simple color practice with Vash
