Someone Asks What Picture Is In Your Locket And You Open It To Reveal This.

anyone else start getting shaky when someone gets into an interest of yours or is that just me

(spoiler warning for the first Gungrave game, Gungrave Overdose, Trimax and the Trigun 98 anime I guess??)

Look, I know everyone and their grandma has made a comparison post between Wolfwood and Bunji but do you know what's even worse? The first time Wolfwood kicks the bucket ever is in the 98 anime by fighting his mentor, getting shot and then dying in an abandoned church.

Meanwhile what does Bunji do the first time he keels over in Gungrave ? That's right, he fights his mentor, gets shot and dies in an abandoned church (with slight nuance but still).

(Also don't forget that the second time both of these sh*theads meet their ends (in Trigun Maximum and Gungrave Overdose respectively), it's partially thanks to the involvement of their respective white-haired younger brothers they hadn't seen in ages.)

Anyway, what the f*ck Nightow.

"don't worry about it" ok but I will

It's the fun kind of a character dynamic.

Thank you for the tag, @citrus-moonlight!!! This is... quite literally my wardrobe color on top of the eyeshadows/lipsticks I wear on the daily so this is actually quite spooky skfjsdkf

You know, I still for the life of me cannot figure out why this was included in the story. Like okay, we know that Harry is supposed to be climbing the ranks in Millenion but. I’m fairly certain that marrying Sherry/Shelly wouldn’t have helped him any more than the recommendations from Randy and Bear Walken himself already had. Was it just to make sure Bear wouldn’t interfere with Harry’s plans later? I never felt like Harry and Sherry’s relationship felt genuine either. For the whole show since the two met I completely thought that Harry was totally disinterested in Sherry and just dated her to keep Bear Walken off his back. But when Sherry dies Harry is genuinely sad and. I was like oh he did care. I guess. Yeah, the whole thing overall rubbed me the wrong way.

They really did a good job in gungrave by making henrys general personality dislikable as fuck but it actually is insane that they had his grown as hell ass take a 13 year old girl out on a date and have a pretty much public relationship with said 13 year old girl and literally nobody did anything

I’d be happy to elaborate! Aside from Brandon, deadmen (guys who get necrolyzed) appear to retain their memories for the most part though it’s never stated whether it’s because they were still alive during the process or not. For the most part they look human, sure, but if their mental state starts to deteriorate they can…mutate.

As long as you have a strong mental fortitude you can pass yourself off as human. You also might can some weird abilities like being able to turn your limbs into weapons or something. I can definitely see you pulling off a ‘knives for legs’ look. Oh, here’s a picture of the bros!

Before and after the betrayal! Reminds me of you and Jimmy… Brandon is even missing an eye (because that’s where Harry shot him)!

Y’know Curly, you kind of remind me of a character from one of my favorite video games. His name is Brandon Heat and he also has a best friend named Harry MacDowell. The two had known each other since they were kids, both orphans. When they get older shit goes down and the two decide to join the mafia after they both suffer the loss of their other friends. Harry wants to reach the top of the organization (climb the ladder) while Brandon is just happy that he can still remain by Harry’s side. But the longer Brandon remains in the organization, the more he has to make sacrifices. His hands become bloodier and he slowly numbs his emotions so he isn’t constantly wracked with guilt. He even denies himself from having a potentially happier life with the woman he loves because Brandon still feels responsible cares about Harry. Long story short, Brandon is forced to point his gun at his remaining friend from his life before the mafia. But he can’t bring himself to kill Harry. How could he, after everything they’ve been through? Unfortunately for him, Harry’s time in the mafia made him colder, more paranoid. Harry doesn’t hesitate to pull the trigger. In the end, Harry cares more about his ascension to power instead of the bond he had with Brandon.

Don’t worry though, Brandon comes back! Through a process called ‘necrolyzation’ he returns from the dead as an undead killing machine to take revenge on Harry! Hooray!

Whew! Sorry for yapping for so long, I am very passionate about this game if you couldn’t tell. I didn’t even get into the other aspects of story. But I do want to ask you a question Curly. If you had the option to undergo the process of necrolyzation right now, would you? You’d be stronger, more resilient. The process is even more effective if the person is still alive, you might be able to regenerate your limbs! Would you be willing to give up what little humanity you have left to save your crew? Would you be willing to become a monster to save everyone?

(WARNING!: Possible side effects of necrolyzation include severe memory loss, blood replacement every two months, and the need to dress like an edgy anime character.)

…I was nodding along, thinking I could see the resemblance, until we got to the “undead killing machine” part. I’m not quite there. Hah. That’s an unfortunate story…

No need to apologize. Uh… I don’t think I understand the process enough to make that decision. When you say I’d lose my humanity, would that mean becoming a mindless killing machine? Or would I still control myself and the change would be purely physical? If it’s just physical I certainly wouldn’t mind. Gotta be better than this, yeah? Even with the blood replacement and memory loss… As long as I remember enough to stay myself and protect the crew, I don’t… I’d power through.

Not a thought behind those eyes <3

Brandon is literally such a cutie 😢
