Wild Arms - Western Romance (Vol. 2)

Amazon.com In the first episodes of this sci-fi Western, the filmmakers tried to cram too much story into too little time; the second set suffers from a dearth of story. Scientist Kiel and gunfighter Sheyenne--who's somehow trapped in an adolescent body--wander the desert planet of Far Gaia. They invariably run into the unsuccessful treasures hunters Loretta and Mirabelle, a sorceress and a vampire. In episode 6, the ancient head of a convent falls for Kiel, then dumps him, abandoning both her followers and a trove of blue pearls. An unscrupulous couple launches an elaborate bunko scheme in episode 7, but Sheyenne and company see through it. None of these experiences leaves the main characters richer, wiser, or closer to finding Sheyenne's real body. Wild Arms (1999) is based on a popular PlayStation game. (Rated 12 and older: violence, risqué humor, alcohol use, mild profanity) --Charles Solomon Product Description The course of true love seldom runs smooth, and in this case it's positively enough to derail a train. Sheyenne and Kiel are still searching for Sheyenne's body and they're still running into Loretta and Mirabelle every time they turn around. Now their search is further complicated by a host of love-struck characters. A train trip becomes a journey through the absurd with cheating lovers, a trio of little girls infatuated with Sheyenne, a conductor obsessed with arriving on time, criminals galore, an expectant mother in labor and a circus troupe alone for the ride. Add a convent with an elderly Mother Superior waiting for her lost love, a pair of feuding families that would shame the Montagues and Capulets, and round it all out with a visit to Las Gomoras, the sleaziest, shadiest den of iniquity in the West. There's love and something more in the air in the second volume of Wild Arms!
