Trigun Stampede is the latest anime adaptation of Trigun, released in 2023 via Crunchyroll. The first season, consisting of twelve episodes twenty-five minutes long, is complete as of March 26, and a second season is currently in production.
Overview
From Crunchyroll:
Vash the Stampede’s a joyful gunslinging pacifist, so why does he have a $$6 million bounty on his head? That’s what’s puzzling rookie reporter Meryl Stryfe and her jaded veteran partner when looking into the vigilante only to find someone who hates blood. But their investigation turns out to uncover something heinous—his evil twin brother, Millions Knives.
Stampede heavily references both the manga and the earlier anime adaptation in broad plot developments, but expands upon and alters many details to create a "retelling" of Vash's story. Though the previously published material is not needed to understand the plot, numerous references to those works exist throughout Stampede for an informed viewer's enjoyment.
Tonally and thematically, Stampede most resembles the manga, particularly Trigun Maximum, quickly moving from comedic and quirky to dark, disturbing and violent, though not without comedy or hope. While still greatly inspired by the aesthetics of the American West, Stampede also uses more science fiction elements and aesthetics than previous versions.
The largest change is in the story's reshuffled timeline. Where the manga opened in the aftermath of the "Lost July" incident, and the anime also depicted the incident as already in the past, Stampede's main plot begins with the city of July still standing and follows Vash as he journeys to confront his brother, Millions Knives, accompanied by news reporters Meryl Stryfe and Roberto de Niro. Along the way, he encounters several other major characters, including Nicholas D. Wolfwood. Because they appear earlier than before in their lives and in the show's narrative, the characters are all designed to be young or incomplete versions of the ones viewers already know.[2]
Vash develops his conviction over the course of the series, going from uncertain in himself and fearful of his brother to determined to see Knives's plans fail, as their origins and previous confrontations are slowly revealed.
