So yeah.
Is it just me, or are we seeing more and more of this type of statement now? In both the anime and videogame industries, it's looking like the West is gaining more and more influence. If only we could get Japanese studios to look to American creators for original ideas... but yeah.

The movie was great! Vash was as adorable as always (he manages to be self-sacrificing and heroic without being annoying, which is rare in anime!), and I really liked Amelia's character as well. The idea of a woman being literally allergic to men and breaking out into a rash when touched is hilarious, and Vash was totally unsympathetic towards her ailment!

Go Go Sequel!
