I can well imagine Trigun as the sort of anime to get a sequel movie, even all these years after the series; the manga still seems to be going pretty strong sales-wise. I'm not sure if i'll watch this when it eventually is released, though, since I don't exactly regard the series with piety, but I am interested to see where the creators will take this new chapter in the Trigun franchise.

I haven't read the Trigun Manga yet, but I probably will eventually.

I doubt this would be a re-telling of events, considering how long it's been since the original series was released. And I really did love that series. The characters were really good, especially Wolfwood. He competes with Spike Spiegel when it comes to outright cool in a suit. :mrgreen:
Paranoia Agent. Texhnolyze. Beck. MONSTER. What do all these great series have in common? They were all produced by Madhouse (and these are just the recent few). These days, Madhouse are pretty much my favourite anime studio (along side Studio BONES) and so I'm expecting this Trigun movie to be another classy production. I'm looking forward to this!

Yep, Madhouse animated Trigun, which in retrospect is pretty amazing considering the massive string of exceedingly good titles that they have crafted recently.

i'll watch it even if it does simply re tell the entire series!! tho i would like some kind of prequel movie. from what i gathered in the series (which was lost from me for all time when my computer died and took the fan subs with it) they were just on the ship with Rem.

I'd also want to know whether this movie would be a conclusion to animated Trigun, or a prequel of sorts to a new series, since the manga still hasn't finished.
