I'M SO READY FOR EVERYTHING THAT IS ABOUT TO COME

(also, i love this cover so much it does something to my brain)

[Para (wanderer)]

Very much feels like a middle volume. The necessary moving of pieces, a little more backstory, but no resolution of the arc yet. Not much to say about it, really.

[Your_Average_Magical_Girls_Fan]

Nightow NOT remembering how his own characters acted during the first two non-maximum books (I'm looking at you, Millie) is the prime example of how the idea of mangas being the canon in the manga/anime diatribe is simply bollock. Paper thin story with no consistency, Vash already changing his behaviour in small parts, humour completely disappeared, how in the hell I bought and managed to read all this series ten years ago is a complete mistery to me. Good riddance.

3.5!

[Juho Pohjalainen · Rating 3 out of 5]

Getting suddenly cancelled almost at the beginning of the story (due to its magazine folding out), I think, really hurt Trigun's flow. It picked up well enough, but still. It left a scar.

Leí más volúmenes, pero hasta acá actualizo. Las fechas... puse cualquier cosa porque los empecé a leer a comienzos de diciembre y me olvidé. :P

This one is a little bit meandering but sets up some very important things related to Vash and Knives alongside with more great fights involving three Gung-ho Guns. While I don't have too much to say on this one I do want to note again the much more developed and interesting Gung-ho Guns.

I won't go into details but all three of the main players of this book have significantly more backstory and care given to their abilities, it makes the fights much more than just cool showdowns and adds some depth to them.

Overall I'd give this one a 3.5 if I could, it suffers from having to wrap up the last volume at the start and not having the time to finish up it's own story either. Obviously this is a small flaw if you're reading them back to back but it's just the nature of volumes.

Después de una gran tormenta no viene la calma: llega el huracán. Los Gung Ho Guns atacan a Vash y Wolfwood a la desesperada en un intento por complacer a Knives.
Este volumen empieza a asentar todo el peso de la relación entre Vash y Knives y desvela las claves de sus idententidades. En ese aspecto es muy importante. Sin embargo, quitando el hecho de que el manga ha tomado un sentido más serio respecto a los volúmenes anteriores, noto que Vash está un poco extraño. Y no me refiero a los tortazos de síndrome post-traumático que le dan de vez en cuando (sigue estando bastante pachucho en ese sentido), sino a su manera de actuar en general. Lo mismo me pasa con Millie, como si hubiese perdido algo de su esencia.

Ok, vamos a hacer recuento.
A un protagonista le falta un brazo y tiene el cuerpo putisimo reventado. El otro, que es yo literal, acaba de quedarse ciego y estamos en el cuarto tomo de catorce.
¿Qué va a pasar? ¿Qué me espera? ¿Qué cornada hay a la vuelta de la esquina?

La serie está siendo emocionantísima en este punto. Empieza a vérsele la cara a Knives y ya hay cada vez menos chistecitos idiotas. La cruz de Wolfwood ha recibido el nombre de *PUNISHER* y hay otros sinvergüenzas que son todavía más peligrosos que los Guns Ho Guns. Pues vamos, aquí me tenéis. Todo se está tensando. Estamos ante el tirachinas más largo del mundo.

I understand people might have trouble to follow the story so far but I think the sudden serious tone is very interesting. We got the revelation about Vash and Knives real identity and also a bit more about Vash past. We also got to see an other side of Millie’s personality by how worried she was for Meryl. She might look naive and easygoing at first but she isn’t. She understood the path Vash and Wolfwood’s took and wanted to go for Meryl’s sake despite how scared she was. Wolfwood understood that too that’s why he choose to prevent it. I think it was a pretty interesting volume and I look forward to read more of the series.

I’m reading this solely to keep learning about Vash, since the story gets confusing at multiple points due to how the fight scenes are don. I’m very curious about what’s going to happen in the next volume. Aside from Vash, I think my favorite character is Milly.

[merlin513 · Rating 3 out of 5]

The line work is gorgeous! The action sequences are disjointed and confusing and the storyline is ‘whuh’!?!
Don’t know if it’s the clunky translation or what, but the flow of the story is more of a disjointed cataract going thru a water wheel, clunk clunk clunk splash panel! clunk clunk clunk

[Rachel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Lots of background lore and world building in this one! Again, my old eyes have trouble discerning what the heck's happening in the fight scenes, but I can still kinda follow.

Millie is my favorite.

lovedddd seeing midvalley's pov on the situation and meryl !!!!!!!!!! tristamp spoilers ig but I just realised that roberto takes a similar position to meryl when she's collapsed in the cell when he dies... exploding everywhere

[Ramsey Meadows · Rating 3 out of 5]

This one felt a little disjointed. I was confused what was going on almost the whole time unfortunately. Maybe it will make more sense when I watch the Anime.

[Shin Donghae · Rating 3 out of 5]

Seiring dengan banyaknya adegan laga artwork dan pot berkembang dg cukup baik

[Joseph · Rating 4 out of 5]

I think the anime is ultimately the better way to experiences the story of Trigun, but Nightow's art is so excellent that it more than makes up for whatever narrative shortcomings the manga has.

[Sol · Rating 5 out of 5]

5 estrellas porque ver a Wolfwood desatado contra el Hornfreak ha sido un gustazo. Se nota mogollón que el personaje se dibuja solo, pero es que también las escenas de Vash son *chef kiss*

[Wesley · Rating 4 out of 5]

[Morgan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Hoppered the Gauntlet, what a cutie.

4.5

[Senia · Rating 3 out of 5]

i'm not sure if it's a bad scan + wonky translations but this volume just felt like a mess? luckily i gobble up anything related to vash and/or wolfwood so i'm super excited for the next volume !

[Ryofire · Rating 2 out of 5]

I still don't like the art style and find it difficult to understand. I know there are people who love it, and there's a lot of skill on display. It just looks ugly, and the character designs are still bad. The story in this one is quite bad, and the second star is mostly because the fight scenes are well-drawn, even if I can't stand the style of them.

[Miss Ryoko · Rating 3 out of 5]

So, the fourth book was a bit easier to understand, but the I never really know who the dialogue bubbles belong to. So I just make guesses half the time as to who is saying what - haha! I'm waiting in anticipation for the confrontation with Knives! (which probably doesn't happen until volume 11 or so...so I have a ways to go :-( )

[Kogiopsis · Rating 3 out of 5]

On the one hand: Zazie! Worm lore!
On the other: I still don't know what the fuck Hoppered the Gauntlet's deal is, and I understand fight scenes involving him even less than most of the action in this manga.
