| Knives and Vash has such a dynamic chemistry that it captured the magic of their personalities really well in these latest episodes. Kinda felt bad that Roberto got caught into this mess. We got more story lore about the human race. It feels like ths episode is setting up for the final two episodes this season. Not going to lie, I think the addition of the piano music made this episode sound more impactful. |
 |
| damn Roberto died and that doctor that experimented on Wolfwood and others just want to create evolve humans then eh but his methods are inhumane, for him Luidas method of vegetation takes a long long time and might become too late so his way is about forcing artificial evolution to humans and as expected Vash wants coexistence with humans  |
| Mannnn, that was insane. 2 more episodes to goo. #RIPRoberto |
 |
| Crucial episode in the lab, with Dr.Will backstory, a short but intense fight against an inhuman (RIP Robert) and the two brothers discussion: Will Vash be able to stop or persuading Knives from his destruction of the humanity? |
 |
| The journey to the metropolis city JuLai to retrieve the stolen Plants from Millions Knives's usage to destroy the world, with the Worms only playing fiddle support, Meryl and Roberto struck gold to see what Nai's vision is truly like through the eyes of the professor Bill Conrad who created Wolfwood and Livio, giving them another chance at humanity. It's not until he met Nai that his visions can be realized, and through the clones of children that are neither human nor plant, only then the future of humanity can be saved. Obviously, Meryl and Roberto don't take kindly to this traction, and one such child (Elendira) got triggered so much so strike at them both. The manufactured children, like Elendira, and both Meryl and Roberto fight for their lives awaiting Vash and Wolfwood's arrival in the nick of time...to have Roberto unfortunately struck down and awaiting his eventual death, which Meryl cannot accept. Worse still, people gain by killing others, and that's the way of the world with the twin brothers facing each other once again, continuing the feud of the ideal way to sve both Earth and aliens. Vash, just forget about convincing your twin brother, he's fully Independent on his own. RIP Roberto though. |

| I wasn't a fan of this at first, and I'm still not entirely sold on Vash's characterisation in this version, but the past few episodes have really been growing on me. The villains not being pure evil and actually having a pretty good motivation for their actions is especially appreciated. I can only hope they manage to wrap things up neatly in the next couple of episodes, though - certain plot threads, such as whatever the deal with Legato is, are still open with no sign of being closed. |
 |
| Damn, RIP Roberto. He may have seemed indifferent toward Meryl but you could tell deep down he did care about her. Vash is still not getting through to Knives. I can tell these final two episodes will be intense. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Wow Roberto really died. Thought he'll stick to the end like his counterpart in the original but guess that's just what they planned for him. Anyways the way this episode went, feel like they're planning to conclude everything in the remaining two episodes. |
 |
| ♫ Spider-Vash, Spider-Vash... ♫ |
 |
| It's been an interesting episode, Robert De Niro is no more and vash is going into something probably a lot of flashbacks in the next episode |
| rip my boy roberto. i was lowkey starting to like his character even though he had sm death flags! meryl finally got her lil ass blicky tho. also this shot was insane, the match "cut" from the bounty of vash to his face to the establishing shot of july is so good: |
ad stellas super alas angeli. |
| Vash got thrown into some weird soup, probably gonna have a bad time. lol |
| About time Roberto died. Now it’s Meryl's turn to wear the pants and hopefully get a new sidekick (i.e. Milly). |

| another brilliant piano scene. you could see it coming a mile away for some time now and he finally kicked the bucket, RIP my boy, roberto de niro. i liked the little exchange between nicholas and elendira, the manufactured child. |
 |
| God damn, I legit teared up when Roberto handed Meryl Stryfe his "little" derringer and told her she's basically on her own. Gaaahhhh! She's gonna need a new partner and I'm going to miss him. It's all grey areas now. - Nicholas is just trying to save the other orphans. - Nai wants to save the plant. - Vash wants to save humanity (fat chance, he has no clue about human nature and its ability to destroy stuff, I mean, ... Earth ... for example) - Worms view Plants as better than humans for their planet (True) - Professor trying to atone ... Is it possible for the story to conclude in 2 episodes? |

| The story is getting better and better, I can't believe the rating for this show is so low. OG Trigun cucks can't accept the phenomenal CGI and new story but I sure can. |
| Great ep again. Best action show of the last six months or so, maybe. So much better pacing than the 90s anime too. |
"The f**ker who goes round beating people to a pulp. He thinks it'll never happen to himself. But there's gonna be a day when the f**ker gets f**king beaten to a pulp too. But that day's f**king today and the guy doing the beating is a f**king c**t." - Sang-hoon, Breathless (2009)    |
| July's city looked absolutely stunning, though the story itself it's getting tense and tenser with all the experiments and how that modified girl ended up killing Roberto...RIP :( Now Knives and Vash confrontation is getting bad |
 |
| lazy episode! One point, he death in the elevator!!! kekeke |
| RIP Roberto. You were taking care of Meryl till the last moment. It looks like Vash is going to lose himself and Nai is the one who's going to handle the job. I hope Meryl stays safe. |
 |
| The acting in this show is so bad. I can't tell if it's the acting or that the animation doesn't really match the voice acting. It feels disconnected. That Meryl scene in the elevator... Phew, what a stinker. I couldn't care less about Roberto dying. That scene felt totally flat. |
| Can we get more shoutouts to Roberto De Niro plz? |
 張大です for 張大勇督察 |
| can't wait for this sophist trash to be over hope they don't make a s02 |
| Wasn't expecting Roberto to actually die. Vash gonna get changed? |
 |
| Damn it Vash talking to Knives for 150 years hasn't worked. Time to fight. |
 |
Hope they make season 2 and 3 just to annoy you. |
| weak bait try harder next time |
| RIP Roberto De Niro 🙏 Vash and Knives, two side of a coin. I really understand both of their perspective. |

That was definitely a picture of with him, which means that this series might adapt more of the manga stuff, like the |

| Killing off Roberto is such a waste. Also, the man's rocking some awesome shoes. That city looked like a Borderlands level. |
| After a pretty chill and a background of the main characters few episodes, we're directly back in the sad drama, WOHOO. Yeah maybe not, all those deaths and that ending, I was expecting a big fight but maybe not, what will Vash do and how will this wrap up (or unfold into), we will need to wait for the next 2 episodes. It's pretty epic nonetheless and I feel like choosing a good and bad guy camp isn't as straighforward as you may think, which is always a good sign of an interesting story in the making. Hype and epic. |
| I like everything, ok |
