I Mean, If You Think About All The Other Names Nightow Came Up With, It Becomes No Less Ridiculous But

Hello there fellow Gungrave fans!

(all 4 to 5 of you who still post)

I created this blog with the intention of adding my thoughts to this lovely series. Once again Yasuhiro Nightow tore out my heart right after I discovered Trigun. Even though Gungrave isn’t one of his more popular works I feel it still deserves some attention. While I admit that narratively Trigun still remains the more compelling of Nightow’s works (I haven’t seen Blood Blockade Battlefront yet please no spoilers) I loved Gungrave enough to buy the Dark Horse artbook! Ranging from stupid shitposts and analysis on both the games and anime adaptation, I would love to discuss this odd little gem with others so feel free to message me!

(However, I should add that my attention span and willingness to share my thoughts with others is a fickle thing so if I don’t respond to you please don’t take it personally. Interacting with people in any sort of capacity drains my social battery.)

Probably should’ve posted this sooner but this is my sideblog. Here’s a link to my main: TheJezHangout

If your seeing this, this is your sign to PLAY GUNGRAVE SET UP A PS2 EMULATOR PLAY THE GAME. It's like yakuza but with guns IT'S PEAK!!!!!

And if you have played it is Overdose worth playing? Genuinely curious

Love how everybody in the Gungrave anime still refers to Grave as Brandon. It’s like everybody heard Doctor Tokioka’s idea for “Beyond the Grave” and were like that’s stupid we’re not calling him that. Harry and the other upper echelon of Millenion still call him Brandon Heat, call that deadnaming or something.

The neurodivergent urge to do this

Beyond The Grave Moodboard

With some vampire goth stuff and guns, coffins themes

I begin to watch the series and I love it, Beyond/Brandon is so cuntyy

So I'm watching Gungrave and...

IS THAT YOU WOLFWOOD???

And LIVIO???

Nightow loved his blorbos so much he reincarnated them, huh.

Yall forgetting that they have “super forms” in overdose

Reblog if you have the best mutuals.

What I love about both Trigun and Gungrave, is that it shows the vulnerability of men in such an unfiltered way. Nightow gives us men that are powerful and scary and feared among people, even their own peers, but always lets them have a certain softness at their core and allows them to be humans that cry like infants when they lose a loved one and feel intense emotions. I love it so much because it tackles the bullshit idea that men have to cast aside their emotions to be strong. You can tell, no matter how badass these characters are and no matter the stupid decisions they make, that all they want is to be loved dearly.

Also the key for these characters to improve their mental state is NEVER to put up even higher walls, but to let people in and help them. They get better by allowing other people to love them, even when they feel so so undeserving of it because of past sins and mistakes they made. It's fucking amazing.
