Show is called trigun
Look inside
Protagonist does not have three gunsI think it checks out he’s got his revolver, arm gun thing, then the beam cannon thing
Damn I really remember none of Trigun, and it was one of my favorites when it came out. I should do a rewatch now that it’s been… oh god like two decades?
It’s still fun, but it’s very 90s
Just like Tubthumping
Ahhh it’ll feel very nostalgic for me then! I grew up on 80s and 90s anime~ I recall the dub’s voice acting being stellar, but maybe it hits differently with how great voice acting has become over the years.
There’s a little bit of the “screechy tsundere” voice here and there going on that was pretty common at the time, but a lot less than most shows of the era. Beyond that, the dub is great, imo.
The beam cannon is just his arm and gun super Angel fusion.
I thought the three guns were the two revolvers and his arm pistol
Some said the third gun is Wolfwoods cross, but that theory only works for the anime.
Idk I never watched it for real. I just remember the theme song … dabududa dibidibidaow dibididibi daow Daba dibidibidaow d-dap daow
Edit: should have scrolled down, somebody already said ir
?
Could argue he does. Pistol, arm, big laser arm.
Keeping original posters’ credit intact is cool.
Who else scrolled up to see if it was beep?

There is now so much manga and light novel titles that I kinda understand why they do this. It is hard to decide what to even click on, and if I can’t even tell what genre it is from the title or cover picture, I’m less likely to check it out
OP left out the Adjective Noun Fred naming convention that lasted from the late 70s through the late 90s
Mobile Suit Gundam
Irresponsible Captain Tylor
Pretty (However they translated Senshi this time) Sailor Moon
Samurai Pizza Cats
Space Runaway Ideon
Devil Hunter Yohko
and on and on and on.
half of that isn’t an adjective
I didn’t name it. It’s probably more accurate to call it Descriptor Noun Fred.
Though none of them are a Fred.
Isn’t that just an extension of the “Blood Joe” referenced in the OP?
Okay but Devil Hunter Yohko is an actual nice name
Trying to be unique in a largely crowded endeavor like Japanese manga is a very difficult game. Like choosing names for one’s creations. So some authors have to resort to using bewildering longer titles if only to stand out, and it gets weirder in very prolific manga subgenres such as a harem romcom.
I faintly remember about Japanese creatives – and some businessmen – trying to find naming inspirations from practically anywhere – a favorite movie, actor, athlete, an odd quote, a catchy phrase in French or Italian (there is heavy use of “atelier”), etc. – for which to name their next work, not just manga but Japanese product names and trademarks in general; a girl’s fashion brand over there which had taken a “Cecil McBee” as its trademark without the knowledge of the actual musician bearing that name (he was informed of it, got surprised, then tried unsuccessfully to sue in court).
The long title trend started with web novels that had to grab people’s attention among a text list of other titles.
Monster would be titled “Do no harm! Unless I save the wrong life, I guess!!!”
This entire post is the title of a short light novel series about anthropomorphic honeybees.
I would read the HELL out of Blood Joe!!!
Could someone link the stepsister slime girls manga, so I can make fun of it?
For academical research
Closes I could find was Killer Joe.
A Minecraft entity? I wasn’t expecting that! XD
My favorite animes from the era remain:
Samurai Pizza Cats, City Hunter, You’re Under Arrest!
Where can I watch “Blood Joe Dating Two Slime Stepsisters At The Same Time”?
moore’s manga law
Hey, give them some slack, they’ve got to stand out among the sea of mediocre titles.
