WOW!!
What a great start to a great classic!! The show begins with the main character, a blond spiky-haired man in a red coat is sitting in a western saloon with a couple of men while they talk about the legendary outlaw, Vash the Stampede.
"Vash the Stampede?
"That's right. He's the man with the 60 billion double dollars on his head. They say he showed up in Danken Town recently. Made quite a mess, I hear."
"Heh... so what happened?"
"The whole town got sacked! Mountains of corpses, all over Danken! The coffin maker got so rich, he built himself a mansion of wood!"
"Guy sounds plain crazy!"
"He's more than crazy! We'd be wise to keep our distance! Messin' with Vash is like dancing with death! He leaves a trail of destruction wherever he goes! Women! Children! He don't care! He'll kill them all! They call him the humanoid typhoon!!"
In truth, he's a big softy, with a love for doughnuts, and has a knack for defeating his foes without killing them.
"The word is that nobody died!"
"Ha! Like you don't need God to have a miracle!"
Due to this, two insurence girls find themselves very confused when they are told this man is the legendary outlaw, Vash the Stampede. One, Meryl, won't be convinced that he is, while on the other hand, her partner Millie is almost positive.
This is a great series, with elements of comedy, futuristic western (two things I never thought would be together!), and action, all wrapped up into a great anime! The person who introduced the show to me described it as the following:
"It starts out like a kid show, with comedy, and no real plot line. Then it gets REALLY weird for a few episodes, then drops into this really dark, rich plot, that makes you sit on the edge of your seat and wanting more."
