Trigun. The classic space western epic revered by many to be one of the greatest anime of its time. It's also, according to sites like animefillerlist, 65% filler. In this video I take a look at the greater scope of both the Trigun manga and anime, the nature of filler and adaptation, and try to figure out not only if that claim is bogus, but if it's because of it's filler that it succeeds.

This video is part of my new Patreon series, suggest a work, and I'll make a short video on what I thought the most interesting thing about it is.   / cynicclinic  

Trigun is cool. It took me a little over a decade to finally fully appreciate it, but it is brilliant.

Thanks to ‪@GilLiesHere‬ for the footage of Trigun on the CRT.
