Catalyst Castle

This is another anime micro review. Read here for an explanation.

This anime is a sci-fi western, and it tells the story of Vash the Stampede. Vash has a huge bounty on his head for destroying an entire city. He leaves a trail of destruction wherever he goes, but as it turns out most of this chaos is the result of the bounty hunters that come after him. In truth, Vash is a rather comical character, and the other two main characters – two women from the insurance agency that’s had to pay for all the destruction being attributed to Vash – don’t even believe he’s the real Vash. This anime has quite a bit of action in it, but it’s really rather lighthearted and comical. It is an older anime, so the animation isn’t great, but it’s adequate. Vash is a super likable guy.

Content Advisory: Some PG13 language. Some blood in the action scenes, but nothing more graphic than that. Even the action scenes are mostly cartoon slapstick, really.
