It was Legato Bluesummer; Vash thought that he was dead before

"My name is Million Knives..I've come to see you Suki.." said Knives.

It's a bad sign when the author leaves the "s"s off of the ends of canon character names. *cringes*

Speaking of names, it's a personal pet peeve of mine when Gunsmoke OCs have names like "Suki" or "Daichi"... the vast majority of people in Trigun have names like "Marianne," "Frank," or "Nicholas." Okay, there are oddities like "Legato" and "Knives," but at least those were attempts at Western-sounding names...

Thought for the day: What the hell was Rem thinking when she named those poor children. One assumes that she was meant to be a native English-speaker and ought to have known better.

Ahahahahaha! XD I always wondered that too. (And why did Knives get a second name when Vash was only left with one?) Maybe they named themselves?

For that matter, just HOW did they come to be, anyway? Did one of the Plants "give birth" to them? Were they some sort of genetic experiment? Just why were those spacemen in episode 17 pointing guns at them when they were hardly more than embryos? Maybe the manga explains more of it, I'll have to wait and see.

(And I just have to add, I adore every icon I've ever seen you use.)

Wow, you really opened up a can of worms with that post! I could probably talk for hours upon hours about the questions you've posed, but that would annoy people in the thread... And not being particularly well-versed in the story of the manga, mostly what I would be giving is speculations, no more authoritative than yours.

But, most people I've heard have come to the consensus that the plants did give "birth" to them. And if some random plant-kid-things turned up for no reason on your ship, wouldn't you show a little bit of precaution as well? Assuming that they were unexpected, which was true in the anime, at least...

*Blushes* I'm glad you like the icons - I don't really have that many, but I appreciate the comment.

I know how you feel. I could ramble for an immeasureably large amount of time on Trigun, and the characters and their motivations and impulses (see below), etc. etc.... but whenever I start, my friends don't tend to appreciate it too much. Not that I can blame them, I'm a geek through and through, but my rants usually fall on deaf ears.

It's the psychological aspect that attracts me, I think... I like analyzing the characters and their little idiosyncracies and their philosophies. If you'd told me four years ago I'd be psychoanalyzing a cartoon, I would have lost it, but, well, here I am. o_0 The thing is, Trigun begs to be analyzed, from what I can see. Some stories have plot holes and things that are left blank, whether on purpose in order to pique the audience's interest or because the creator was too lazy to fill them in, but I'd like to think Trigun is more of the former than the latter

Is a plant angel that Vash knew before he was on Gunsmoke...

Whoa, whoa, whoa - hold up there. There is no way that could possibly be canonically correct. I can't even critique this like I want to, other than to note (with great sorrow) the lack of proper grammar and rather patchy knowledge of the Trigun-universe.

Meh. I feel apathetic right now.

I guess that's what the flashback was all about. He has some thought about hoping to meet her on earth. Or whatever. I could be wholly mistaken of the context. You saw the fic. ::brain explodes::

Re:

[anunspiritedsue]

Just basing off the flashback bit in the story, I'm still a bit iffy on that. I mean, really. (Hard enough trying to make sense of the fic, anyway...) Besides, falling in Twu Wuv (as I think the author is trying to put it; it's really hard to forge through that) because of extensive physical beauty isn't advisable, is often bad writing, and out of character for Vash. Yes, he likes women and he adores the sexy/beautiful ones. And I did have an argument for this but I think I'm starting to forget what it was.

Either way, I neither like the Sue nor the characterization of Vash, my own pairing preferences aside. Igh.

[techno4tomcats]

*bangs head against desk* Always with the plants. Why, why can't they leave them alone!

The grammar, the story....it chokes me, it does. And inserted author notes! Agh, the agony. It's sad how easy these Sues are to find in Trigun. Truely sad.

I'll stop now.
