YELLOW please
The promotional cover wrapper on the 14th and final volume (released on Wednesday) of Yasuhiro Nightow's Trigun Maximum manga has revealed a 2009 opening for the previously announced Trigun theatrical animation project. The tentatively titled "Trigun the Movie" project will feature a completely original story from Nightow and Trigun series director Satoshi Nishimura (Hajime no Ippo/Fighting Spirit, Shin Cho Bakumatsu Shonen Seiki Takamaru), as well as a script by Yasuko Kobayashi (Claymore, Shakugan no Shana, Witchblade anime). Takahiro Yoshimatsu (Jubei-chan - Secret of the Lovely Eyepatch, Ninja Scroll series) will return from the Trigun television series to design the characters that Madhouse will animate. The manga's cover wrapper indicates the story will be about "Vash vs. Wolfwood," the two main characters of the popular manga.
I heard about the possibility of a Trigun movie a few years ago, but at the time it didn't look like it was going to be followed through- now to be in Japanese theaters in 2009. nice amirite. Trigun being my FAVORITE anime of all time, I am pretty damn excited. This is pretty much OLD NEWS but there are no threads on it around here so fucking amuse me.
It's going to be Vash vs. Wolfwood, but
Wolfwood died in the anime, and if I heard right he also died in the manga (I am currently reading). So it makes me wonder if this is going to be an adaption of the manga, the series, or something completely new. I'd love to see some sort of sequel or spinoff from the anime, but who knows.
are you excited...
you should be..
