An hour and a half until the ep.Use this time to water your plants so they grow big and strong.
>>285705367Knives was right about everything.
>>285705874That's tantamount to saying Jesus eas misguided.
>>285706013there are two jesuses here
Finally out
I genuinely don't like the OP. Too much shit happening all the time.
They're all extremely fuckable.
Whenever Nai's not on screen all the other characters should be asking "Where's Nai?"
I imagine most of his dreams were just incoherent screams of rage.
This smug fucking brat needs correction.
Knives is right. Total Human Death is the only solution.
Dont die until I watch it
Anyone want some of Legato's jungle juice? Freshly squeezed.
>>285708750Cute
>gooey and rawThat's what they used to call me back in college.
Sorry Milly, but that isn't water. Give it a taste anyways, babe.
Legato is a fun ham.
>>285708461This but unironically
>>285709735As a sucker for yanhomos I have no idea why I don't like this guy. In theory he was written for me but I just can't like him. Then again the series might have too many yanderes hence why he does not stand out.
Super Saiyan Vash is finally back!
>>285709810He does stand out less when every Knives follower is some kind of dramatic toxic serial killer in love with him and anti-social towards everyone else.
>>285709843The justification for getting this haircut is a bit strange (how did this guy look at himself even once during the fight?) But I won't question it kek it looks good.
Would you a thicc Vash
>>285709962Vash is best as a sticc
>>285709843He's too handsome, he deserves a harem.
On point direction work 4 eps straight into the season. I wonder what's so different between the two seasons that they're managing to come up with so many memorable sequences this season. The dream, almost betrayal and juicing scenes hit all the right notes to hit you with unease and tenseness. That new arrangement for Knive's theme was brilliantly haunting and angry and helps convey what he was feeling and what drove him to bring down the ship. I fully expect some high class jazz to accompany the fight next episode.
>>285711155Less levity means they can go harder on the dramatic stuff.
What is the point of Elendira character?
>>285711998Molestationbait
Wake me up when legato backstory ep
What the fuck was that shit?
>>285709735Is there any in-universe explanations for him have the worst character design of all time?
HOLY SEX
>>285712839Clamp never got popular in the Stargaze universe.
>>285712839Chuunibyou
>skip past every Jessica scene, because her design takes me completely out of it>she somehow even looks like a lower-quality 3D model compared to everyone else>pic rel: everyone has a hairline -> meanwhile Jessica, imported from the character creator of the localized version of Blue Protocol:
nice screenshot, faggot
>>285714315Thanks.
>>285711155i can only assume everyone who touched last season are blacklisted or dead by their own hand. this is good and fine though.
If Legato's stamp/gaze design is based on his manga outfit from the july flashback do we think he's a teen or an adult with slow aging? His design hasn't changed between Wolfwood's flashback, his appearances in stampede, and stargaze so I'm trying to figure out how much time has passed since Wolfwood and Livio joined EOM.
>>285714684I think he's just a slow aging man.
>>285714684He refuses to age past teenage delusions.
>>285711998Tower defence. If you send Legato and Midvalley out to fight, Elendira can stay close to Knives and form the last offensive barrier. In the manga she's one more enemy to hold back so Vash can reach Knives in the big finale, so we can expect her to be used closer to the end. Until then she's there for exposition convenience and fangs.
>>285705367Blatant disrespect of the original series
>>285712857Damn plant!!!
>>285709382Tits or ass?
>>285709735Man I knew this reboot was utter dogshit trash only consumed by blue sky tourists but they really killed my nigga legatos design, holy fuck.
>>285709962Auron?
>>285706821Jesii.And who names their kid Hornfreak?
Oh no... he's hot.
>>285717557Are you stupid? His name is Midvalley. Hornfreak is the title Knives gave him
>>285717598frfr status? BUSSIN
>>285717598Carved outta cheese slices
Is Wolfwood always that polite ? First time getting in this series
>>285708353Jesus, new trigun looks horrifying
I do not like the Opening for this season. I just skip it. The ED is okay, though.
>>285711998mesugaki trans representation and metaphor
>>285719091I think we all do. It gives me the same recoil as nails on a chalkboard
I read the manga 3 years ago but it's funny to see I don't remember the gung ho guns. Emilio who? Midvalley what? Hoppered the fuck?Didn't see anyone complain so far so I assume they were there but man it's like I never read it.
>>285719564Same. But my memory was always fucked regarding fiction, never understood why.
>>285719564I knew who they all were since I reread manga chapters and rewatch episodes of the first anime periodically.
>>285719686Sounds pretty convenient honestly. You get to enjoy a story twice. That's why I don't mind too much here.>>285719788Makes sense.
What is his problem
Kinda hoping Caine the Longshot is adapted into this even though he was an exclusive in the other anime.
>>285719564How do you forget Midvalley the Hornfreak? He's a fucking horn freak.
How is it even possible to create such a bad anime, this episode didn't even have a reason to exist, and this is a problem when there's only 8 episodes left to tell a "story" here.
>>285720299I'm liking it better than Stampede at the very least. But yeah, it's still pretty weak. Maybe years after this we'll finally get an actual Maximum anime.
>>285720498What does Nightow have to say about this aside from his usual "Oh wow all these talented people working on the anime, I'm honored to be given this kind of attention"
>>285717012Milly had both.
>>285720046We do a little trolling.
>>285720570Didn't Nightow want this? Or is it PR babble like with live action Cowboy Bebop where you'll hear something different after it's over?
>>285705367Who the fuck is TeslaKnives will think he's a girl now?>>285709931Pretty sure there was a shot of him looking at his reflection back on that season 1 fanservice momentBut fanservice is a good thing always
>>285711998>What is the point of Elendira character?Sex>>285712857Sex
>>285720725What exactly is "this" that he supposedly wanted? Because whoever is making the decisions here doesn't understand Nightow's style at all
>>285720725IIRC someone here claimed he didn't want a Maximum anime and wanted an MCU-like adaptation.
no one gonna talk about vash's prostatic arm ?
>>285721796What about it?
>>285721657And yet Monev the Gale was changed to look like Bane from Batman even though he's supposed to be a reference to Spider-Man's Venom (his name is Venom spelled backwards and dressed in clothes that resembled Venom's appearance).I know Monev's design in Stampede was based on an alternative figure on him from what I remember, but it misses the point.
>>285721519You remember the eyeball Knives was keeping in his knife that was staring at the doctor when they met back up? That was their older sister Tesla, the first independent plant. Finding Tesla's desecrated body in the ship is the turning point that motivates Knives to destroy humanity. In the manga when they find her most people presume she's dead and only preserved as parts in a jar, but Stampede added a little text on a screen that said she was still alive, as well as implications Rem continued to visit her and leave her flowers.Presumably, after the Julai incident, Knives's followers fucked up when collecting his remains and mistook Tesla's eyeball for one of his, so now he's absorbing Tesla against his will instead of intentionally. The fact he's not the one who chose to start assimilating other plants into himself will make his resulting madness more tragic.
>>285721519In the manga, Vash and Knives had a sister whose body they discover was experimented on. It's the reason Knives hates humans.
>>285721893That figure was cool, so it's okay.
>>285721907Just to follow up, Crunchyroll subtitled it as "eyes," but I think we only ever see the one Tesla eye hanging out with Nai. Checking the knife thing on his hand from the other side there isn't an eye there, so it's just this one that looks back and forth and blinks.
>>285722258This flashback begins and ends with Conrad's photo of him and Tesla that he keeps on his desk. He refers to helping Knives as his atonement, and more so than the blades, the eye was what Knives was showing him back then. If you rewatch Stampede Knives's knives form an eye symbol a few times and when asked if this means Tesla is watching the staff have said maybe. I guess S2 staff wanted to make it explicit that she's present in Knives's revenge.
I hope Wolfwood doesnt die in this interpretation of the series
>>285722405What if they replace the couch with the backseat of a car and Meryl just keeps driving
>>285718346He's a good church boy with a rough exterior.
>>285721893Monev was always a kind of homunculus of Venom, Bane, and Spawn.
>>285720046She cute
>>285720570He's impressed that they're referencing all these small overlooked things from the manga that didn't make it into the first anime but he'll never say anything about the actual quality of the series
>>285723501AhYeah that sounds about right
A very good episode, I must say. The directing this season has been sensational.
>>285718346He's a sweet little boy
>>285709843So how many people will die before he wise up and do what is needed to stop the madness?
>>285717266Kek, haven't thought of that game in a long time.
>>285723976He will win through love.
>>285723501The Trigun manga got cancelled because the magazine it was in was discontinued and the anime had to do its own thing with some ideas from Nightow before the manga came back later.
>>285724572Well aware but it references subtle things even from the chapters that the anime did have
>>285723976I think another few Legato milkshakes are necessary.
Honestly I don't understand the point of this series. I would've much preferred more spinoff movie like Badland's Rumble than whatever this is.
>>285720570Isn't Nightow also part of reboot project?
>>285726252No he's only credited as original creator
>>285725118>point of the series"we are looking to appeal to modern audiences"If someone post the image I swear I'll save it this time.
I like the Wolfwood as the cynical realist than the indoctrinated bastard from the '98 anime.
Wait, how has Meryl had rice before? Rice is a thirsty fucking plant, it can't possibly be a thing they grow.
>>285725118Wasn't it Nightow himself that wanted something new instead of a continuation? I remember it being mentioned in last season's threads on why this came to be. Wouldn't be surprised if it all started with Orange wanting something to showcase their action work and someone happened to remember Trigun being a thing.
No Spawn coat? I haven't watched just because of its absence.
>>285726453Ah, so they just asked if they could reboot his series and he just told them "Okay."
>>285727409all their seeds came from the colony ship so most of them were probably genetically modified to be way more versatile and resistantalso the traditional nip way of growing rice uses way more water than is actually necessary for the sake of drowning most of the things that you'd typically have trying to eat your rice while you're not looking
>>285711998To make me seethe because the materializing nails are lame
>>285724572Trigun went on hiatus at 20 chapters in 97 and in 98 they put out a 2 cour anime. I don't think they can blame the hiatus for running out of material to faithfully adapt. It should have only been 1 cour.
>>285728748I'm more annoyed about legato's powers changing from wires to telekenesis because it probably means conrad experimented on him rather than knives finding him like that
>>285727590I have no issue with a continuation but whatever they're doing with this show isn't working
>>285729369Sorry, with a reboot lol
>thread #30 of oldgoodnewbad and manga cucks impotently seething - hopelessly desperate for an "authority" figure to corroborate their worthless feelings EditionYou creatures get more and more pathetic by the thread.
>>285728945>from wires to telekinesisI think it's still wires, they just don't make them visible until the actual fight because it's something Vash will have to figure out.
>>285729594It's not wires he crushed metal on the sand steamer in stampede.
>>285722405Seems unlikely, literally what is the point of rebooting Trigun if you don't animate this scene?
>>285729395I've watched the '98 anime and read the "Maximum" series. Still enjoying the reboot so far.
>>285729395More buzzwords please
>>285729369I'm finding it pretty cool so far.
>>285728945In the first anime it was telekinesis through having Vash's lost arm attached to him (it was never explained how Vash's arm gave him the power of telekinesis since Vash never displayed such an ability).
>>285729914Yeah I wonder what motivated knives to pick up legato in 98 too
>>285729962I used to get the impression that Legato in the 98 anime was artificial due to how stoic and robotic he acted.
