Review of Trigun: Badlands Rumble (2010) by Peter F — 01 Sep 2013

Over a decade after the anime series concluded, a Trigun movie was finally released after seemingly a life-time of cultish devotion towards the franchise, and it's actually a bit better than you thought it would be.

It certainly didn't strike while the iron was hot, but this film is a great gift for long-time-devotees of the series and it's a small miracle that after all this time the creators were still able to leave the tone of the original series unaltered.

Fast, frenetic, amusing and impressively animated, Trigun: Badlands Rumble should prove entertaining for outsiders to Vash the Stampede, or simply a really refreshing nostalgia trip for those that grew up with the character (i.

E. myself).
