On a two mooned planet Vash the Stampede accompanied by
Meryl and Milly continue their journey to protect the innocent
and dispossessed...
As
ever the disc contains only three episodes, which is kind
of strange and disappointing, as most anime shows have four
per disc, still if you're a fan you may well stomp up the
extra cash to get all the shows. This release contains episodes
fourteen to sixteen.
Little
Arcadia
is
really a Milly and Meryl story. When a couple of homesteaders
are being threatened for the deeds to their land, the girls
take on jobs as bodyguards to the family, but are they out
classed? Not only do they have to fend off the usual local
thugs but also a group of bizarre super beings, three of whom
look suspiciously like Marvels Juggernaut. It's really a kind
of morality play about a son's inability to trust the wisdom
of his parents. It's kind of funny with the usual level of
weirdness thrown
In
Demons Eye were back to a Vash story. Vash is carrying
the girls over the desert towards a new town. In the town's
saloon the mysterious Lagato kills the local gang leader before
being set upon by the rest of the gang, to no avail, half
of them are killed as a lesson. Vash instantly recognises
Lagato's handiwork and sets off to confront him, but Lagato
has utilised the skills of the gung-ho-gun gang and Vash has
to face off with the beautiful Demons Eye. Another interesting
episode, less preachy than most as the episode is very action
orientated.
Lastly
we have Fifth Moon. With Vash now hunting Lagato, it's
been two weeks since Milly and Meryl have seen him. In that
time Vash has no idea where to find Lagato until he sends
Vash a zombie message to meet him at Augusta. In Augusta he
must face off against the fifth and ninth gung-ho-gun's. Well
another action piece that does little to continue the ongoing
story, but a good episode none the less.
Extras
include a Trigun trailer, textless opening and closing
sequences and trailers for some other anime shows. So there's
nothing really special there. Audio options include only stereo
versions of the spoken English and Japanese soundtrack, which
is a real shame as Trigun is action orientated enough
to benefit from a 5.1 remix. As it is, the stereo soundtracks
do not detract from the program.
