Biography
1998 anime
The 1998 anime does not go into how Midvalley falls in with Knives and Legato. He appears for the first time with his band at the saloon in Jeneora Rock, where he is entertaining the patrons just before Legato slaughters the Roderick Thieves. He is next seen introducing the Gung-Ho Guns and pledging their loyalty to Legato up by Jeneora Rock's windmill. From then on, he acts as Legato's personal assistant - he is with Legato at Augusta when Vash uses his Angel Arm; he is with Legato at the beginning of "Out Of Time" when Legato promises Knives that he will make Vash's life a living hell; and he is with Legato again when Chapel the Evergreen is dealt with in the episode "Sin". Midvalley travels to LR Town with Legato to confront Vash, and reveals that he, like Legato, believes that Knives is an all-powerful being more or less worthy of worship. Vash and Midvalley fight until Midvalley's saxophone machine gun jams, at which time he chooses to detonate the gun and kill himself rather than be spared.
Trigun Maximum
Character
Appearance
Midvalley is an unusually tall man who wears a black double-breasted suit over a pink dress shirt that has the top few buttons undone. His black hair is slicked back, though a few strands fall over his face. He is quite good-looking.
Personality
1998 anime
Midvalley comes across as suave and charismatic; cool and calm. He's generally affable, and he remains loyal to Legato (and Knives, by extension) right up until the end.
Trigun Maximum

Midvalley's main weapon is his saxophone, which he's named Sylvia. He can blow into it and slay people, and if that doesn't work, he can use the built-in machine gun to shoot them.
