[quote=@Xar]Going through Vash the Stampede since it’s getting a new anime. Good stuff. Big twists. Hoping it ends strong, but I feel like a lot of anime from this era got canceled and had to end quickly… Hoping that’s not the case here.

Trigun is one of my favorite anime all time!
From what I understand, for the original anime they did have to change some things compared to what was in the manga, and with only 26 episodes, they did kind of rush the ending. The first half follows pretty close to the 2-book manga (not the long running Trigun Maximum series) where the last half I think was when liberties were taken.

I'm suuuuuper hyped for the new anime!! It's meant for a completely new audience, so there's going to be some big aesthetic changes from what I saw in the trailer. But from what I understand what was said during the panel at AnimeExpo, the director and production will be working with Yasuhiro Nightow (the original creator) to keep the core of Trigun and to try and follow as close to the manga as possible. Essentially they're trying to pull a FMA: Brotherhood with this. I am very optimistic, even if it won't be exactly like the series I know and love.
