Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

[highwind]

I just noticed that in the credits at the end of an episode of Trigun.

Les Claypool III???

What is that all about?

Um, since I've seen that person mentioned in other anime credits, I would assume it's a different guy.

Not that I wouldn't put it past our loveable Les.

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

Yeah, it's just some guy.

[Riotsword]

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

Maybe that's why he added the "III" to his name, as to lessen confusion.

[highwind]

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

That's such a strange name though?

Think it's an homage?

[Nixon]

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

I guess it's possible... or, maybe this Les Claypool III is the evil twin that refuses to play bass or get funky.

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

Who refuses to do either of those things!?

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

I'm watching the entire Trigun series for the first time.

It's pretty cool.

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

Wow... yeah, it's damn good.

GO TRADITIONAL ANIMATION!!! DARE TO COMPARE~!

Too bad the animation quality plummets after the first episode.

But then I never tried to finish the series...

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

I watched a few episodes and was dumbfounded by the lack of quality... anything.

It's a very mixed series. It has some great episodes (Diablo, Demon Eye, Fifth Moon, Paradise, Under the Sky so Blue). But it also has some awful episodes (Truth of Mistake, Peace Maker, Love and Peace, Vash the Stampede, Little Arcadia). Overall, it was a pretty good show.

[Nixon]

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

Yeah, I guess I liked it because it was fairly unique and I enjoyed the villians. It's not the ultimate anime series or anything, but I had fun watching it.

And I thought the animation was decent throughout.

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

I dunno. Maybe I'm just spoiled.

Re: Trigun Final Mix by Les Claypool III?!?

The show had a lot of potential but they started the Gung Ho Guns part of the story way to late into the series which caused them to rush things at the end. They really should have stuck to the manga more and simply made the series longer.
