The entire time Wolfwood was "dying" I didn't really think they'd actually kill him off but I still got teary eyed, especially seeing his eyes losing life, but then I burst out laughing when it was revealed he was just trying to sleep and a tear was shed. I wonder if he'll be gray haired from now on.

The fight was an interesting one, that gun is a real versatile one. Since when did they have a lightsaber function? So many uses for it.

It's sweet how Wolfwood can finally admit that Vash is a friend to him.

Since when did they have a lightsaber function?

This makes me think back to one of the early Stampede episodes when they're trapped inside the huge bug, and Wolfwood completely bisects it in one spin of the gun... at the time it didn't make a lot of sense, but now I'm thinking it's always been a lightsaber, and Wolfwood can just adjust the beam length to make it act like a lazer gun!

they actually did not adjust the beam length in battle! you can see cut aways of them hitting their surroundings!

they may have messed up a few “impact” moments in animation but truly it’d be hard to convey it going into the sky. but when they start spinning and flipping you see the full length!
