i dont know how to explain it but joining extremely small fandoms with only a few people in them feels like this
Hey Captain Curly! I heard you like space cowboys, so I'm showing you my favourite space cowboy, Vash the Stampede!
In his world, he and the rest of humanity live on a desert planet called Gunsmoke, or No Man's Land in some other versions. This infamous gunslinger is determined to live his life spreading peace and kindness despite the $$60,000,000,000 bounty on his head (yes it's that many zeroes), and so he keeps up a cheerful and optimistic personality, using his inhuman reflexes and pinpoint accuracy to avoid killing at all costs! I think you'd appreciate his hopeful outlook on humanity, especially later in the series when the plot kicks in and his backstory is unravelled. Let me know if you'd like to watch an episode (either the silly but heartfelt 90s version or the more immediately serious reboot), or if you just want me to ramble about his backstory!
The first picture is him in the original anime (a more western look that I prefer), the second is him in the reboot with more of a cyberpunk influence.
While he's a silly guy most of the time, but when shit hits the fan he's a total badass.
Hey! Thanks!
Huh, wow! That's an exciting character design.
A desert planet, huh. Sounds kinda miserable, hah. Still, good for him. That's... That kind of hope is hard to maintain, yeah? I wouldn't mind learning more about that backstory, if you want to share it.
He looks very exciting. Thank you again for showing me.
the world just spins whilst mine stands still nothing's changed in your gravity grave
(all 4 to 5 of you who still post)
I created this blog with the intention of adding my thoughts to this lovely series. Once again Yasuhiro Nightow tore out my heart right after I discovered Trigun. Even though Gungrave isn’t one of his more popular works I feel it still deserves some attention. While I admit that narratively Trigun still remains the more compelling of Nightow’s works (I haven’t seen Blood Blockade Battlefront yet please no spoilers) I loved Gungrave enough to buy the Dark Horse artbook! Ranging from stupid shitposts and analysis on both the games and anime adaptation, I would love to discuss this odd little gem with others so feel free to message me!
(However, I should add that my attention span and willingness to share my thoughts with others is a fickle thing so if I don’t respond to you please don’t take it personally. Interacting with people in any sort of capacity drains my social battery.)
The real reason Grave drags his feet everywhere is because he wants to delay dealing with bullshit for as long as possible.
Now that Gungrave Tumblr has found me, I'm posting this silly little meme I made.
Like, can we talk about this one scene in G.O.R.E. where Grave just gave the hardest and sassiest judgemental stare? I know homedude wanted to say something so bad. 💀
me getting five notes from my regular mutuals on any given post
"don't worry about it" ok but I will
This isn’t in any order or anything this is just a bunch of thoughts I’ve wanted to talk about regarding this lovely series.
Trigun/Gungrave narrative & themes comparison: On a scale of "love and peace" to "kick their ass"
Brandon Heat is a combination of both Vash and Wolfwood
Is Bunji Kugashira similar to Nicholas D. Wolfwood in certain aspects besides appearance?
Vash & Knives vs. Brandon & Harry: Expectations of trust/loyalty
Bunji Kugashira's hangups about brothers (first Juji then Brandon?)
What's the history between the Kugashira brothers?
How canon is the Gungrave anime to the first Gungrave video game? Was Overdose supposed to bridge the two (appearance of Sherry???)
Why isn't there more Gungrave/Trigun crossover content?
Tsuneo Imahori is so good at music dude: How the Gungrave soundtracks create another layer of atmosphere & emotion
What the fuck was up with Gungrave VR & Gungrave G.O.R.E.?
How and why is Rocketbilly Redcadillac?
I want to see more hijinks with Juji and RB, they are sooooo
Why is Juji not in G.O.R.E.? (Sad but probably not canon idea that he was eventually overcome by the SEED in him)
What it's like to be a deadman aka why don't we let the Gungrave cast experience body horror too
Madhouse wanted the Gungrave anime to be a spiritual successor of the 1998 Trigun anime
Will there ever be another entry in the franchise after G.O.R.E.?
Trigun and Gungrave say aliens are real folks (maybe canon maybe not)
Beyond the Grave & Vincent Valentine: Two ultra sad goth bois that just want to take a nap in their coffins
Feel free to make your own post for any of these ideas or something. As I said before my activity on this blog is going to be pretty inconsistent so don’t expect anything from me anytime soon. Then again just last night I started writing a short little Juji story but I don’t know when I’m gonna finish it. I also plan to do fanart but motivation to draw has honestly become more evasive than wanting to write. If you have any questions or suggestions I’d love to read them in the comments or tags at least. See you guys later!
With some vampire goth stuff and guns, coffins themes
I begin to watch the series and I love it, Beyond/Brandon is so cuntyy
Because I am normal about this series I decided to make an entire blog dedicated to it. Because I'm normal.
