Trigun: Badlands Rumble

Twenty years ago, legendary (and reluctant) gunfighter Vash the Stampede stopped a musclebound outlaw named Gasback from robbing a bank. Rather than kill him when he had a chance, Vash let the man go to prison instead. When he gets out, Gasback decides to get his revenge. While you don’t really have to have watched the original Trigun series to enjoy this feature-length anime, it may be a good idea to go back and do it just to enrich the experience. Knowing just how Vash became an outlaw/hero helps understand a lot of what happens in Badlands Rumble. Plus you’ll have a better sense of characters like Meryl and Milly, the two sexiest insurance investigators you will ever meet, when they turn up.
