----------------------------------------
This movie is excellent and made even better with 2000+ Trigun fans cheering and laughing with you. For those who when to AX 2010 got a special treat with the sub premiere of the movie. For those wondering how it was....

Vash making serious situations absolutely hilarious......check
Vash flirting and groping beautiful women......check
Wolfwood being a bad ass.....double check
Vash being a bad ass.....check.

In other words all the makings of a great Trigun episode.

We just got to watch this at the Scotland loves Animation festival, damn was it good. I've not watched trigun before(heresy i know) but from what everyone else was saying after it, it basically felt like the Trigun they have come to adore. So yeah, go and watch it if you can

This was awesome. It got the same atmosphere as the series, and the characters were all the same as well. The story was a bit predictable (I knew he was Amelia's father right after the first flashback about her mother occured), but it was still very enjoyable. The animation was crazy good, I don't even know what to say about it. What I missed were the old soundtracks (or more like the opening of the series :P), but the new ones weren't bad either. I watched the TV series with hungarian dub, so the japanese voices were strange at first, but I got used to them pretty quickly, and their suit the characters well.

All in all, it gets a 9/10 from me. It was a good try to "revive" the franchise, and they didn't mess anything up, even tough the mangaka wasn't involved as far as I know. Oh, and the moive reminded me of One Piece movie 10 for a strange reason, but I liked this one more.

Downloaded it a while back today, simply awesome movie. Though I never actually finished the TV series, I understood most/pretty much everything going on.

Really enjoyed how the quality was super up'd but all the characters kept the same design. Milly still looks like a giant man to me regardless though.

I've been waiting forever for this movie, and I was not disappointed.
Still the same great mix of comedy, action and dram I came to love from the series.
Although because of Wolfwood I am wondering the timeline when this movie is supposed to take place.

My favorite scene.

Nice movie. the story is flawed imho (to "kill" Vash was stupid, since it was so obvious that he wasn't dead), but the animation was good.

Either it's just great to see Vash back in action!

It was alright. The animation was top notch and it was nice seeing some of my fave characters again but the plot was cliché as hell and it didn't help they were just repeating the same thematics regarding Vash' non-killing as they did in the show. Enjoyable but nothing more than that.

That was just all kinda of awesome! The story wasn't exactly amazing but wow, that art! The gun fights were amazing! Especially that one with Wolfwood and Amelia at the end. I was a little surprised not to hear Vash say his old catchphrase "Love and Peace" (unless I missed it or something) To be honest this has just left me wanting more in the updated style!

Looking forward to rewatching with the dub! I hope they get all the cast back.

This was so worth the 3 or so year long wait. The enjoyment level was through the roof and I honestly can't think of anything that I disliked. Gasback was especially awesome, such a badass. Though the scene where Gasback almost shot Wolfwood gave me a bad flashback, which was very unnecessary :[ Well this movie gets a 9/10 from me. Now to wait for Funimation to release it~

Wow, this movie was a trip down memory lane for me, when I first got into anime nearly 7 years ago when Adult Swim started airing Cowboy Bebop. I would give it a 10/10, but I didn't like how someone could just stand still infront of a person for 3 seconds and not get hit by a single bullet. Other than that, this movie was HILARIOUS and enjoyable. Vash was just too funny LOL. The plot behind Amelia's story was somewhat predictable and I noticed the seiyuu right away (Maaya Sakamoto), but it still surprised me with how touching it was by the end. I feel like reading the Trigun manga now or something.

Awesome movie. Great visuals, the same quality of humor as in the original and the fights were pretty damn good. But the sad part was I was hoping to see a visually updated Angel Arm....but meh great movie overall. Hopefully this won't be the last we see of Trigun.

As soon as I saw that I could finally watch this movie I didn't waste a single minute to finish it.
I loved the fact that it stayed exactly the same as the serie.
Ow Vash, ow Wolfwood, how I have missed you both.
I hope you have a lovely day ♥ヾ(๑❛ ▿ ◠๑ )

Ah, this movie was great and painful at same time.
Great because it reminded me about why I love trigun so much.
Painful because I wish to see more trigun :)


Still, was hoping to see a kiss scene at the end, from the redhead... But oh well.

The movie never explained why Amelia broke out in rashes when Vash (and i assume all men?) touched her...

Good movie for those who are fans of Trigun. Vash and Wolfwood are still two of the legendary characters in anime.

It felt like a long, wonderful, fun episode that fits in perfectly with the first half of the TV series. While Amelia's secret was hardly a difficult thing to guess, I still enjoyed her presence in the film. This movie was beautifully animated, funny and overall very entertaining. It gave me a warm nostalgic feeling for the series, and should be a wonderful way to reintroduce people to Trigun as a whole. Sorta like what Rebuild of Eva is doing.

It was alright, nice action and comedy. And I guess it's been a long while since I've watched Trigun, but Vash's pacifist bullshit got irritating more than once during the course of the film.

Nice extended episode, but I don't think it was worth the decade long wait for just a filler movie.

OMG! This was a good movie! Everything well done.

And to people saying 'the dying thing was crap, of course he won't die' We all know that but isn't it excting all the wait and not knowing when he will make his glorious entrance?

The peruvian music at the end was a nice touch.

Great movie, really really good.

10/10

It's an extended Trigun episode, and a pretty good one at that! Huge entertainment value, especially for fans of the TV series, not to mention that all the main characters make an appearance. The comedy, gun action, crazy car chases, great dialogue and a pretty interesting villain all make for a great movie!
