A reboot of the fan-favorite Funimation anime series Trigun, centered on the good-natured outlaw known as Vash the Stampede, is on its way to Crunchyroll from Toho.

Officially titled Trigun Stampede, the upcoming reboot was announced Thursday, June 16. Set to be released in 2023, the anime features an all-new voice cast an animation staff, and will be simulcast from Japan in more than 200 worldwide countries. More information will be revealed at Anime Expo 2022 in Los Angeles during Crunchyroll's panel on Saturday, July 2.

 

Trigun is based on a manga written and illustrated by Yasuhiro Nightow, first serialized in Monthly Shōnen Captain beginning in April 1995. It was adapted into an anime that aired in 1998, meeting with great success across the globe and now considered a classic by many fans thanks to its colorful blend of action, comedy and drama.The story followed Vash the Stampede, a gunman whose reputation for destruction and violence has spread to legendary proportions, despite his peaceful nature and aversion to hurting anyone. It takes place in a space western setting, specifically on a planet called No Man's Land where Vash is constantly pursued by bounty hunters and a pair of insurance agents seeking to hold him accountable for the property damage which seems to follow him everywhere.

Trigun Stampede will be produced by Orange, the animation studio behind Netflix's Beastars. The series has a new official website at trigun-anime.com, and its official Twitter account can be found at @trigun_anime. Nightow and several producers of Trigun Stampede will appear as panelists at the Anime Expo panel to discuss details of the show and take audiences behind the scenes of its production.

Crunchyroll recently announced that the original Trigun anime would be joining its streaming catalog, along with other classic Funimation anime titles such as Shinichiro Watanabe's Space Dandy.

Trigun was one of the three titles that really got me into anime way back when (the other two being Cowboy Bebop and Outlaw Star). I'm excited to see what they do with this new take on it.

Trailer for the new series

details are still kinda sketchy … but seems like it might be a prequel to the original? (setting aside the intro with Knives & Rem, the new character design for Vash looks younger to me) Just a first impression, but I’m kinda apprehensive about it instead of hyped at this point 😅

New trailer

so yeah …. Sorry but I’m having flashbacks of the live action Cowboy Bebop where they fuck up everything that made the original iconic. Guess the CGI is supposed to make up for it. And looks like Milly won ‘t be Meryl’s partner (if she shows up at all)
