Hello folks, and welcome back to Wrong Every Time. Today I am eager to return to Trigun Stampede, and see how Vash and his companions are faring. It certainly hasn\u2019t been an easy road for them; although Vash possesses tremendous destructive power, he is loath to use his abilities to harm others, even if those others have every intention of harming <\/span>him<\/span><\/i>. This has made for a difficult trek across this sand-blasted planet, as every mercenary and their mother is intent on capturing him, to which he can generally just offer a lopsided \u201ccan\u2019t we just be friends?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Descending from the heavens alongside his twin and shadow, Vash is clearly being framed as a messianic figure, a savior whose infinite charity might counterbalance the selfishness and violence of mankind. But in a cruel world, there is often little choice but to be cruel ourselves; though Vash possesses the strength to stand by his pacifist philosophy, he cannot single-handedly save this world, cannot transform it into a place where the necessities of life are so plentiful as to facilitate such effortless charity among the rest of us. Of course, this is all assigning him a thematic significance I\u2019m sure he\u2019d find lofty and embarrassing; as a person in his own right, he seems mostly concerned with not becoming the \u201cweapon\u201d that others see him as, a tool whose only purpose is destruction. The contrast of these two perspectives, alongside the inherent thrills and charm of this lushly appointed production, have made for a thoroughly satisfying meal so far. Let\u2019s get back to it!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Episode 3<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We open with a news report from the \u201cSeven Cities,\u201d speaking of a sand storm ravaging the central plane. So it appears there actually are some larger settlements on this planet, we\u2019ve just been hanging out in the backwaters<\/span><\/p>\n

The camera pans up over presumably Knives trudging through the sand, headed towards another run-down installation<\/span><\/p>\n

Then we jump back to the cliffhanger we left Vash on, with Gofsef having been swarmed and presumably destroyed by \u201clost technology\u201d shaped like metal-and-crystal spiders<\/span><\/p>\n

Roberto states that these bombs must be the work of \u201cE.G. Bomber\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Quite a loaded shot as another of the townsfolk races away to sacrifice himself, shouting \u201cplease, save the town.\u201d His blood splatters beneath Vash\u2019s eye, forming a tear for him to wipe away. An easy visual metaphor for how Vash feels the suffering of all<\/span><\/p>\n

E.G. Bomber\u2019s real name is Ethan Gilbert Hamilton<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt any rate, don\u2019t lose heart.\u201d Vash also continues to embody faith in dark times, promising he will defeat this foe and disable the bombs. I feel like more people would be engaged with the New Testament if Jesus spent his time fighting supervillains like this<\/span><\/p>\n

Our villain soon reveals himself, complete with a big metal suit and a declaration that he is now \u201cE.G. the Mine.\u201d Dude, if you don\u2019t stick with one title, you\u2019re never gonna build any name recognition<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He\u2019s played by Wataru Takagi, one of the great nasally voices of anime<\/span><\/p>\n

His metal wheel-suit immediately facilitates some energetic action cuts, as the camera swings around to follow his rampage through the settlement. Quite impressed by the dust effects here – they feel voluminous without feeling \u201cchunky,\u201d maintaining the fluidity and morphing, rapidly dispersing quality of traditionally animated smoke<\/span><\/p>\n

And out in the sands, the cloaked figure continues its march towards town<\/span><\/p>\n

Getting a closer look at these plants that power their town, it\u2019s clear they\u2019re designed as the bottom half of a woman\u2019s body that blooms into a sort of yarn-ball of threads. Another charged image, implying these plants are like mothers to humanity<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t get it, do you? I\u2019m not killing to steal – I\u2019m stealing to kill!\u201d Can human charity coexist alongside those who are proudly set against it, not for reasons of necessity, but simply because they enjoy causing suffering? It\u2019s a question our own world has failed to meaningfully answer; cruelty is not always a reflection of inner pain, and cannot always be resolved via kindness and understanding<\/span><\/p>\n

With that declared, Vash\u2019s whole affectation changes. He has infinite patience for those who are hurting, but for this man who only wishes to cause pain, he immediately declares \u201cenough\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s actually Meryl who comes up with a counter-strategy, latching onto E.G. alongside Roberto in order to ensure that if he activates the bombs, he\u2019ll die as well. Excellent scrappy character acting as the two cling to their enemy, with Meryl making plenty of characteristically feral expressions<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Nebraska wants revenge on E.G. for killing his son, but Vash steps in to block him. Is it right to hold sacred the life of this man, who himself desires nothing but to hurt others? In his unqualified protection of all human life, Vash actually seems to demonstrate how he is not quite human himself, unburdened by the natural sense of hurt and desire for revenge that such cruelty can inspire. Can a man who does not hurt like us honestly embody our best instincts, or act as a meaningful exemplar to the rest of us?<\/span><\/p>\n

Vash can only offer the defeated \u201cthere\u2019s no point in revenge.\u201d And then our wanderer arrives, already pounding away at the town\u2019s piano<\/span><\/p>\n

With none of his usual confidence, Vash\u2019s voice cracks as he urges the townsfolk to flee<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Instead, E.G. immediately runs up to worship Knives, declaring \u201cyou grace us with your presence\u201d before being dispatched. A moment that speaks to how fiction tends to dance around the implications of a character like E.G., who embodies how some people will always set themselves against a kinder, more equitable society. An infinite capacity for forgiveness only works up to a certain point, and that point is precisely where stories tend to let \u201cfate\u201d make the hard call, by sending such irredeemable characters off a cliff or whatnot. The story thus allows the protagonist to maintain their spirit of infinite charity while essentially executing anyone who challenges the limits of that philosophy<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHave you ever desired to converse with a god, Vash?\u201d In contrast with Vash, Knives embraces his mythic status without question, naturally assuming he is a god of the people. It is this sort of hubris that terrifies Vash; a certainty of sovereignty that allows any cruelty, because what can rightfully be denied to a god? This is why Vash <\/span>can\u2019t<\/span><\/i> answer the question raised by a character like E.G. – because answering that question would immediately imply an assumption of personal righteousness, and that is the road to self-justified cruelty and oppression. The most direct route to tyranny is an implicit assumption of righteousness; the second we believe we cannot do wrong, the floodgates of cruelty are flung open<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I like how the lighting reflects their self-images, rather than their actual identities: Knives is bathed in sunlight, Vash is a gun in the dark<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhy are you here? Is it the plant?\u201d \u201cI\u2019m taking it back. It belongs to me. Or rather, it belongs to <\/span>us<\/span><\/i>.\u201d Vash wants to share the gift of life with humanity, but Knives thinks only in terms of ownership<\/span><\/p>\n

Knives accuses Vash of vanity, seeing in his daring defense of the humans only \u201ca cure for loneliness.\u201d He cannot imagine giving freely, without thought of repayment<\/span><\/p>\n

Ooh, lovely smoke effects as Knives touches Vash\u2019s gun, spawning cracks like splintering ice down its barrel<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

They\u2019re effectively amping up Knive\u2019s presence through classic horror movie staples; cutting the sound so you can only hear his footsteps, obscuring his face, slowing down the pacing to build up suspense. All this succeeds in making him feel implacable, inevitable, and unknowable, a force of nature rather than just one more enemy<\/span><\/p>\n

Our only unobscured, still-partial shot of his body sees his cloak molt into endless knives before Nebraska is struck<\/span><\/p>\n

Out at the town\u2019s edge, a massive metal golem arrives, flanked by a black-suited man and a young boy who looks suspiciously like our lead brothers once did<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rosa\u2019s companions are slaughtered in turn by Knives\u2019 cruel blade appendages<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhose side are you on?\u201d Knives asks his brother, naturally implying that there will always be a divide between humans and the brothers. Gods cannot live among mankind<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn the past, God rained fire from the sky, destroying the city of depraved fools. To fix the world once and for all, I\u2019m moving ahead.\u201d Knives again affirming he sees himself as a new god, sent to pronounce judgment upon humanity<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cTo bring everything back to even.\u201d A goal that definitely requires further explanation. What does Knives actually desire?<\/span><\/p>\n

The town ultimately lies in ruins, and Rosa asks Vash to leave, saying \u201cif you hadn\u2019t come here, none of this would have happened.\u201d Perhaps gods and humans cannot coexist after all<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAfter all they said to you, how can you smile like that?\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t deserve to cry.\u201d He understands the privilege and responsibility of his power; though he wishes to carry their burdens, he cannot<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And Done<\/b><\/p>\n

Whoof, what a brutal episode! Our formal reintroduction of Knives was even more horrific than I could have imagined, with basically every side character we\u2019ve come to know being sacrificed as fuel to underline just how monstrous Vash\u2019s brother truly is. But there was no outright malice in his behavior; to Knives, it is clear that humans are simply not important enough to be worthy of hatred, just ants to be stepped on or brushed aside in pursuit of his great work. Just as Vash has positioned himself as a self-sacrificing savior of humanity, so has Knives styled himself as an Old Testament-style deity, explicitly referencing Sodom and Gomorrah in explaining his actions. Even with the best of intentions, is it possible for a being like Vash to understand human frailty, and to truly live as one of us? Regardless, the journey continues, and the party trudges east.<\/span><\/p>\n
