Gun Blaze West is a short-lived shonen manga by Nobuhiro Watsuki, which was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from December 2000 to July 2001. Set in 19th century America, it tells the story of Viu Bannes on his quest to locate Gun Blaze West, a rumored place where only the roughest and toughest outlaws and cowboys dare to tread. The thing of it is though it's very well hidden, and artifacts dubbed "Sign To West" are the only known objects to point the way. Luckily Viu has one of them (his prized gun from his mentor), and is more than willing to risk life and limb to reach the legendary destination. Along the way he is joined by two more allies: Will Johnston, a former bar bouncer whose father left him a compass with the sign and Colice Satoh, a Japanese foreigner, acrobat and keen-eyed knife-thrower from a traveling circus. Together they brave the wild frontier, confronting other desperadoes who seek the same goal.One of the few Wild West manga actually set in America and depicted the 19th century very well. Sadly, it never caught on with its readers and was soon canceled within the year it began (six months to be exact, resulting in three volumes of material). | |

The Mountains of Illinois | |
| Gun Blaze West (Manga) / int_5d397b9c | comment |
The Mountains of Illinois (literally!): As our heroes trek halfway across the US, the towns, topography, etc. don't vary much; it all just looks like what you'd expect in a generic Western movie. Of course, one can just accept this as the Western-themed fantasy that it is, but if, say, you've ever been to Illinois, seeing it drawn like it was Grand Canyon National Park is rather amusing. | |

Impossible Task: The ringmaster, who hopes to discourage Viu from seeking Gun Blaze West, tasks him with shooting a bullseye at 15 meters, three times the accurate range of his gun. His goal is to either get Viu to give up or drive him to achieve the inhuman level of skill he'll need to succeed. | |

Cut Short: Sadly, we never do see the heroes reach Gun Blaze West, as the manga was cancelled due to low popularity rankings. The last chapter has a Native American guide lead them to the next challenge but that's the last we see of the protagonists. However, it's implied in the final chapter they do succeed in reaching there. | |
