Wild Arms - The Good, The Bad and The Greedy (Vol. 1)

Amazon.com Based on a popular PlayStation game, this 1999 TV series suggests an unsuccessful mixture of Trigun, Outlaw Star, and Slayers. Gunslinger Sheyenne Rainstorm is awakened by Herculean scientist Kiel Aronnax--and finds he has the body of an adolescent boy. Even in juvenile form, he can handle an ARMS, an ancient, super-powerful weapon. But he wants his adult body, so he and Kiel wander the desert planet of Far Gaia on the trail of body-shaped treasures. Along the way, they pick up Isaac, a cute, wisecracking beastie. The trio continually crosses paths with three would-be treasure hunters: sorceress Loretta, who uses Tarot-like cards, vampire Mirabelle, and their cute, obnoxious pet Jerusha, a former mate of Isaac's. The storyline is so complicated that director Toshiaka Kawasaki uses endless Morris the Explainer scenes to try to untangle it--with limited success. (Rated 12 and older: nudity, violence, risqué humor, alcohol use, profanity, homosexuality) --Charles Solomon Product Description ARMS - mysterious, ultra-rare weapons of almost unbelievable power.

These are questions Dr. Kiel Aronnax would like to see answered. Sheyenne just wants to find his original body. On the other hand, fortune hunters Loretta Oratorio and Crimson Noble Mirabelle are only interested in treasure.
