What Trigun to buy?

[DeadPool]

Hi everybody, I am a big cowboy bebop fan and was told that I needed to look into buying some of the Trigun DVD's. The entire series costs almost $200. So I was curious as to which sets to buy, which are the best or which Triun movies I should buy? Thanks for the assist.

There's no movies, just 26 episodes. The episodes are mis-labeled on the first 2 DVD's, though.

If you go here (http://www.uln.com/cgi-bin/vlink/013023028395IE.html) and search "Trigun", you'll find the DVD box set for $140, but it's back-ordered.

It's not like BeBop, though. It more of a comedy series than anything else. It starts off pure comedy then gets pretty emotional near the end. Great series, but you don't have to be a Bebop fan to realize it.

Start in the beginning and finish in the end. There is more continuity in Trigun than Bebop (although not too much at first).

Trigun Videos/DVDs in order:

1) The $$600,000,000,000 Man
2) Lost Past
3) Wolfwood
4) Gung-Ho Guns
5) Angel Arm
6) Project Seeds
7) Puppet Master
8) High Noon

Note that it costs $240 to buy the entire series as individual DVDs at retail ($192 on sale), while the box set costs $200, or $140 on sale.

The Bebop box set is a ripoff, though. You can get the entire series for $20 less than the box set costs.

In all fairness, that's one of the nicest boxes I've ever seen.

Don't you get the first soundtrack as well?

[Koggit]

Yup. But the best songs on it are Tank! and The Real Folk Blues. Both of which I was sick of by the time I'd watched all the eps.

I think this thread goes in Anitainment, though. ;)
