Manga Review #3: Blazin' Barrels

[Obfuscate]

Blazin' Barrels and Trigun are like two totally different things. Trigun has alot of depth and complex characters, and its not so much about life in the wildwest, but survival as a whole. Blazin' Barrels on the other hand is just pure action/comedy wildwest hijinks with some adventure. It's nothing like Trigun at all in terms of characters, plot, or theme, anything. The ony thing these two manga have in common is that they use a wildwest-type setting.

So now apparently, anything that uses a wildwest setting is now a ripoff of Trigun.
Also, I think I should add that Blazin' Barrels is not a japanese manga, it's a korean manwha, and has been running for almost 10 years with nearly 20 volumes. Trigun too has been around for about 10 years, but doesnt have as many collected volumes yet because Nightow took a break a few years back.

I don't think Blazin' Barrels deserves a lower score because people may think its a rip-off of Trigun, in which it clearly isnt it, especially because its not of japanese origin, however, Blazin' Barrels doesnt exactly deserve a higher score ethier because it doesnt have anywhere near the same kind of level of depth that Trigun has.

1.) Blazin' Barrels is Trigun with alot less thought...BOTTOM LINE. (I seriously did not think I would have spell that out)

2.) Sorry I'm not familiar with the different terminology associated with comics from different regions. These are just quick reviews based on what I read. There is no in-depth background checking or researching, hell I even skip anything about the author if there is a blurb about him/her. Beyond that for clarities sake manga will suffice. People KNOW the term manga and have at least a basic understanding of what it is. If I tried using all the different terms associated with each countries version of manga I would drive myself and others crazy. They wouldn't know if they were reading a novel or a kids bed time story. Its just easier on me and everyone else if we just call it ALL manga and leave it at that.

3.) This is the first review of a wild westish type manga I do not think its even remotely fair for you to immedeatly say I'm going to throw them all in the same boat. Unless of course you can acurately predict the future, which I highly doubt you can.

4.) The scoring is completely bias. It is in no way an objective score of the manga/series. In fact other than the section basic info the whole review is all according to my bias. If you have read the series or decide to the read series based on a review I do and decide either its better or worse than what I said thats fine. Like I said I'm not out to make any friends doing this.

5.) Thanks for actually replying. I wouldn't mind if you replied to every single review I did and gave your own 10pence on the subject. Always nice to have two sides to a story and all that jazz.
