Damn. Yeah, you got it. You looked it up, didn't you.
Hey, on a side note, did you know vash's gun couldn't work in real life? The hammer is on top, but the bullet fires out of the bottom.

For the people who don't know anything about guns, why wouldn't that work?

...Ok...
Imagine a six-shooter. You know the part that spins around when you pull the trigger? The part with the bullets in it? That's the cylinder. When you pull the trigger, the cylander spins so that a bullet lines up with the barrel, and the hammer is pulled back. The hammer is the part in the back the hits the bullet (when you pretend your hand is a gun, your thumb is the hammer).
Well, the hammer of his gun is on the top chamber of the cylander... yet the bullet fires out of the bottom chamber.
Just a little thing I noticed.

I think that's because the upper barrel holds the energy core of Vash's Angel Arm cannon- his final weapon, and one of the most destructive weapons in all Anime-dom (he takes a chunk out of the moon with it, blows up July city, etc. etc.)
but hey, it is a science-fiction in the far future, maybe there's a firing mechanism in the revolver that makes it work- despite odd placement y'know

Well, hey, I was just pointing that out. Me and dan like to look for little oddities like that in stuff (like the "Dodge this" scene in the matrix)... I mean, they've got giants with steamstacks coming out of their heads and guys with robotic arms that shoot bomerangs and stuff. Scientific corectness is hardly an issue in the series It's all about the comedy and the action ;D

I don't like choosing between two things I like.

We all know that. I guess I haven't seen enough of either series to make a judgement, but as a slight pre-judge, I'd say Trigun because it is more of a comedy.

havent seen either of them enough to know? but you bought the entirety of the trigun anime and the cowboy bebop movie... you own them!

Yeah...but I've only seen 5 episodes of Trigun, 4 of Cowboy Bebop, and not half the movie. Heh, just cause I own them doesn't mean I have the entire time to watch them. Plus, they're on loan right now.
