| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I was laughing my head off when she kept calling him 'Spot'. Vash was being properly 'whipped' right there! |
| Your search on "Oran Solus" returned the following quotes: "Oran Solus? I know him. What a wanker. He still owes me a tenner." Oscar Wilde "Oran, you're so intelligent and awesome <3" Bakayaro "Oran's sexy." LolitaDecay "Oran is a sophisticated penguin." Drybananna "Oran is a Hand-Eye you faggots." EddieSpaghetti "Oran for Prime Minister." the_prime_one "Oran is all that is stated in his sig and more." orbitzz |
| Yeah, it's kinda slow paced but it still works because it's funny. |
| finally we know something about him |
 |
| This series is legendary. :D Loving it, Vash is amazing :P |
 |
| Yay more of Vash's past is revealed, so his first incident was blowing up July O_O? Interesting ... |
| Oh hale Vash the Stampede! |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Liked this episode alot more than a few of the previous ones. Good action, good humour, and a fairly good tear jerker near the end. |
| That lady turned vash into a dog..making him bark, and calling him "spot". -_- Then she turns on him., lol very intresting episode. |
     |
| Vash only remembers his childhood ?? Wonder when they'll get to the flashback -.- |
  |
| I enjoyed the episode. Now I wonder if he can do more than just shoot good and dodge bullets and whats his mysterious past. |
| So, is he immortal or something? I mean, he looked the same in the flashback as he looks now. |
werr-y said: Thats what I thought too... immortal or at least ageless, combine it with that trick he pulled with the plant and there definitely is more to him than meets the eye... well other than being an invincible outlaw I mean...So, is he immortal or something? I mean, he looked the same in the flashback as he looks now. |
| I was practically dieing to see some development, so I was happy to see this episode. Still enjoyed the others before it, though. |
| This story is getting super interesting, there's something crazy about Vash I still don't know, and the humour and action in this episode were top-notch! Really, good stuff. |
 |
| Vash became 'Spot' lol. Another great episode. |
| Ah! I can't wait to learn more about his past! Great episode, one of the best so far I think. |
| The story progresses nicely, more questions are raised and personally I find this episode the best so far. Btw I just realized that the black cat which randomly appears in every episode is the best. xD |

| It was really interesting how he managed to pull that neat trick of his in that plant. |
| Lol, "pochi". XD |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Interesting. There's more to Vash than meets the eye. |

| Nice episode. Finally getting into some real plot line. |
 |
| If that flashback was at least 20 years ago, and Vash looked the same then, he's either in his forties now or is somehow ageless. |
| I think Vash must be a superhero. |
| Vash is so funny haha. However, I'm liking the serious side of him. Each episode reveals a little more about him. It's very interesting. |
| Hurr durr, I'm a burr. |
| I'm loving every second of this, I liked the stoy of the engineer lady which made us learn a bit about Vash's past and I'm also wandering why he didn't age, maybe he is one of the humans (?) that build the plants. |
| Ok, at least now I'm sure that the setting is futuristic. One of the better episodes, I guess. So Vash has to be like 40 or something? |

| the anime does not make this clear but Vash DOES remember his past what he does NOT remember is the July incident |
 |
| Finally the story is starting to move on. And I'm loving this exposition: Nothing too subtle, nothing too obvious. English Vash is doing a really good job balancing humor and drama. And for some reason I hate Meryl's japanese voice. Not sure if the english dubbing is getting more familiar or her tsundere-whiny voice is just unbearable. |
| "That makes it easier, come let's get married" LOL Another great episode. |
| A rather funny episode like the previous ones. A little bit of information about Vash's past. |
 |
| Very interesting episode, so Vash has some sort of amnesia and cant remember anything hes done including the July incident which I assume is what got him such a huge bounty in the first place. That explains how such a seemingly good guy would ever do anything so terrible. Up until this point I was thinking they acicdently put a few extra zeros on his bounty by mistake haha. |

animalia said: I am sorry to quote myself but i feel like it need to be restated that in BOTH manga and anime VASH as PARTIAL amnesia he does remember his past in GENERAL but he does NOT remember the July incident SPECIFICALLY.the anime does not make this clear but Vash DOES remember his past what he does NOT remember is the July incident |
| |
| That cat is everywhere!! |
| Wow that ending! Really quite amazing, makes me wonder what he actually is and can do! Let's see what's next but boy this is getting good! |

ManU-Alchemist said: I didn't like this episode like the first five. But we at least learned something about Vash. What alot of people probably do not understand is the first 5 episodes or so in the series were actually not part of Yashuhiro Nightow's manga. They were considered filler in the series, though definitely still interesting in their own way and humerus. But that is why the show has kind of appeared episodic until now. The real story actually begins with this arc and the big "steamer" that comes to town and the fight with the large giant in town, don't want to spoil anything. Milly and Merl weren't even introduced until later. |

I still find the action in this show disappointing. So I wonder if Vash is some sort of immortal being with super powers. He seems to understand how the plant works better than anyone. |
| Love and Peace!!! |
| It's about time that this show showed a little backstory of Vash's past. |
| Armageddon was yesterday, today we have a problem. |
| And the plot thickens. Looking back on this reminds me of the serenity of the first couple of episodes. |

| Cool episode, funny when she called him Spot and everything. Yeah how is it he saved her when she was 3 and he looks the same age as her? I'd say they both looked like they were in their 20s. Why doesn't he remember if he did it or not? I'm glad she didn't manage to kill him! What's with the random black cat? lol. It's cute but odd. |
 |
| Well my previous questions have been answered, but this episode only raises more. Still, this is looking to be pretty interesting. |
| I wonder how many years have passed since Elizabeth was three as well as why it was referred to as the third city of July. Could it have been the third incident that Vash the Stampede got himself into or was it the third city to be ever established in the region? Vash seemed to have been dedicating a remembrance when he poured that bottle of alcohol solemnly, so what past event did he recall there and then? |
 |
| The show finally starts to pick up! |
| That was a bad ep. Worst episode so far. 2/5 |
| What a great episode. Finally some of Vash's past. |
