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, referred to by Orange as "Final Phase".[1][2][3]
Because of streaming, this series is the first Trigun series to be simulcast - episodes are able to premiere in Japan and the US on the same date.
Created by Studio Orange, Stampede uses the same style as their previous works Land of the Lustrous/Houseki no Kuni and Beastars: a hybrid of 3D models animated with 2D principles, warping the models in relation to the camera to resemble traditional anime stylisation.[4] This is a challenging and time-consuming process, requiring two years spent creating custom software for the characters' faces alone, and five years total in production (compared to the studio's usual three years).[4]
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 specific details to create a "retelling" of Vash's story. Though viewing the previously published material is not required, numerous references to those works exist throughout Stampede for an informed viewer. Tonally and thematically, Stampede most resembles the manga, particularly Trigun Maximum.
The largest change is in the story's timeline. Where the manga opened in the aftermath of the "Lost July" incident, Stampede's main plot begins with the city of July still standing and follows Vash as he journeys there to confront his brother, accompanied by reporters Meryl and Roberto. Along the way he encounters several other major characters, introducing them earlier then their appearances in either of the older works. Because they appear earlier in their lives and in the show's narrative development, they are designed to be young, incomplete or imperfect versions of the individuals viewers already know.[4]
