Moon Phase Diary just reported that there will be a new Trigun animated film currently in production. This news was released to the world in the 14th volume of Trigun Maximum. This will be an original story developed by the mangaka Yasuhiro Nightow and directed by Nishimura Satoshi who helped with the Trigun anime and directed Hajime no Ippo, also the studio behind this bad boy is Madhouse.
Now here is the kicker, the tagline of this film is: “Vash vs. Wolfwood?! The familiar characters erupt on screen in an all-original Trigun story!”; no this isn’t an otaku debate, this is for reals. It looks like Vash has grown tired of Wolfwood doing all that naughty murdering that he is usually seen doing, and it looks like this can’t be stettled with words alone. I have been expecting this fight ever since I first watched Trigun many years ago. Expect to see this film sometime in 2009, that’s if you live in Japan. Us westerners will probably have to wait until 2010; hopefully time machines will be invented by then so that my future self can send me a review copy. This is for your sake people!
