Though it didn't quite leave me with the same sense of awe as the final episode of Cowboy Bebop, this was nevertheless a brilliant conclusion. Trigun is a series you need to pay close attention to--and if you are like me, watch more than once--to catch all the little hints that lead up to the moving end. It's a fast moving duel invoving instantaneous moves and countermoves, until Vash gets a bit of help just when he needs it. He hasn't forgotten his gentle, kind tutor Rem, and I doubt if the climactic shootout of any previous Western either became so surreal, or ended the way this one did. Perhaps best of all is the way it leaves you feeling afterwards. |
