Ha, ha!



So Wolfwood is officially dead. D-E-D-D dead. Is it wrong that my first response was to cackle? Because the annoying fangirls who proclaim that the manga is OMG so much better than the anime because he's alive there annoy me. (Not that all people who prefer the manga are annoying fangirls. I address a specific subset.) And also, it's about damned time something happened, and I partially blame Wolfwood (you know, the fictional character) for dragging to story to a halt for so long. And now there's a better chance that the insurance girls will make another appearance.

Hee.

Ah, the sweet pain that comes with the death of a beloved character.

Is it wrong of me to love watching people see people watch that episode for the first time, unspoiled, and savor their reactions?

If it's wrong, then I don't want to be right, because I do it too.

*laughs* Wow, he killed Wolfwood off? ^_^;
I think I gave up on the manga when the story kept on dragging on and on. :p Oh, and that Meryl and Milly haven't been in it in a long time.

Which Volume?

Which volume is this? I just started collecting the Trigun manga (a.k.a. Graphic Novel) and so far only have Trigun 1 & 2 and the first Trigun Maximum on order. I feel a little...well...left out of the loop. Oh well. All in good time, right?

So, Wolfwood bites it in here too, huh? **shrugs** I hated it when he died in the anime, but life went on and I figure it will be the same with the manga/graphic novel version of the event. It isn't that I don't like Wolfwood...it's just that he wasn't meant to stick around for the full duration. He was kind of a throw away character. At least that's my opinion.

Anyhoo...thanks for the tidbit. I look forward to the future volumes...and eventually owning my own Trigun anime collection (preferably the boxed set...). My friend, whom I borrowed it from, took it home the other day. **shrugs** I guess having it for almost two months should've given me enough time to watch it to my heart's content. **grins** I never did finish watching it in Japanese with the subtitles. The yellow writing on sandy background gave me a headache.

Well, toodles.

Probably TriMax volume 11. I think it's up to ten now but this would be in the latest issue of Young King Ours in Japan. I'm a little out of the loop, too so don't mind me. :p

I'm not sure what volume it'll be in, but it happened in the latest two issues of Young King Hours. So 10 or 11, like she said. It'll be a while until we see later volumes translated because if they catch up to Nightow, they're stuck.

It's hard to not to see Wolfwood will die anyway. His inner organs was a mess, so if he lived he wouldn't be much of a person anyway.

Too sad, actually, but I can let him go. I'm one of the fangirls who likes the aliveness of Wolfie!


Insurance girls.. well there's chance for Meryl and Millie now. too bad, still.

Poor Wolfwood :( He didn't even get any lovin' before he was taken down this time.

But, I do have to agree with you that maybe now that he's gone there will be some good plot progression. It seems like it's been a really long time since we've heard about what Meryl and Milly were up to.

Does this mean we can finally start the Still Dead Damnit! club? For supporters of Dead!Wolfwood and Dead!Spike and, um, other dead characters who wanna stay that way.
