The 1998 OG Trigun is a cult following. And 25 years on, the 2023 alternative retelling will also be a cult following, just like its predecessor.

To be frank, I've known mangaka Yasuhiro Nightow's famous OG series that has surfaced from time to time, both the manga and the anime adaptation that was prevalent from the mid to late 1990s. But the truth is that I've never gotten the time to read nor watch it, though its an experience for people who've watched and grown up with Trigun, will definitely say that it's something to behold at the time of its release. That's until 25 years ...

Studio Orange director: “Man, I was watching this piece of trash Boomer anime the other day and all my buddies around me were laughing at it. Then it suddenly struck me. This is an absolute tragedy! This old piece of trash actually has all the elements there to be a masterpiece and it’s simply being handcuffed by all this hackneyed anime bullshit! Imagine if it cut out the stupid comedy, extra characters, pointless romance sub-plot, pointless fanservice, and just really doubled down on the psychological drama and grimdark elements. Those Zoomers who laugh at this shit right now and dismiss it will have their minds ...

Three episodes into Trigun Stampede and I can't wait to see the rest. Having never watched the original I didn't know what to expect. But Trigun Stampede easily delivers a mysterious story filled with zany characters and stellar CG animation.

Fights are fluid and fast paced, and the more story driven segments never linger for too long but not quite long enough either. World building could use some expanding apon, but this far into the show it hasn't been an issue. The score works great with the scenes, but nothing has caught my attention quite yet except for the heartfelt opening.

It's hard admitting when you're wrong, so boy am I hard right now! Like many others raised on Adult Swim programming, I have been a fan of Vash since I was a wee lad, and was positively giddy to see him return for a new entry in the series. 1998's Trigun is a classic story of the long-suffering do-gooder who's villainized, but nevertheless prevails against all odds. To see that depicted in 2023 was a prospect which had fans excited; we were all coming home again so fast you might even call it a stampede! In fact, it was called that: Trigun Stampede! However, now ...

I WANT to review this show on it's own merits. I DON'T want to endlessly compare the original series with this remix. But I can't. Trigun Stampede won't let me.

On its surface, the idea of a new take on an old story has a lot of legs. It's why we get a new a Batman movie every 9 months. And Trigun as a property had plenty of room to grow beyond what we saw in the original adaptation. Similar to Full Metal Alchemist, the anime came and went when the manga was far from finished. So doing something more with Trigun made a lot of ...

Trigun Stampede is a show that I wanted to love, a show I was absolutely excited for, but have ultimately been let down by. Putting aside the CG animation (which it deserved better than, see Bleach TYBW), this anime bears little resemblance to the original Trigun. In the original series, Vash is a loveable, overly flirtatious goofball, constantly getting into crazy situations. Below the surface, however, he is a tortured soul, running from his past, something thats revealed more and more as the show progresses. However, in this new show Vash is literally just a sad boy, quite literally the entire show. And the same ...

The old Trigun was very terrible... it did not age well. I watched it and loved it as a teen, however as I got older I tried to go back and watch it only to cringe out of my seat. It was unbearable. It also didn't develop a plot until half way through the series. And focused on a serialized story that had plenty of plot holes and a lot of dated sexism. The standard people hold it to is silly. This is Nightow we're talking about. His other series similarly had huge problems. Gungrave's only decent episodes are episodes 2 - 15.

Never written anything in MAL, but this awful anime made me write a short review..

This is one awful anime.. In general CGI isn't great and in general a terrible art choice, but here it looks like the most generic, boring and lifeless thing ever, they also changed how Vash the Stampede looked for the worst. He is such a boring/blend looking MC now... On top of this they also left out Milly, although she is mentioned once, who had a pretty big role in the original anime and was somewhat of a crowd favorite.

There is reason for Vash the Stampede's (the ...

Trigun Stampede is a retelling/reboot of the original story (manga) and has nothing to do with the old anime, it's something completely new. A new beginning.

As there are only three episodes out so far, I don't have much to say about this adaptation yet, but I'm enjoying it! I liked the first episode, the second could be better (the battle against the Nebraska's is much cooler in the manga and in the first anime...), but the third one was AWESOME. Knives really needed to be treated as a menance from the beginnig, and not show up only during flashbacks or in the LAST episode.

When the ...

If you're a fan of the original Trigun, stay away. This "re-imagining" of Trigun misses the mark on so many levels, but if you haven't seen the original, well it's still mediocre at best (so far up to ep 5).

The enormous issue I have with this rendition of Trigun is that it doesn't get it. They clearly wanted to stay away from the original as much as possible and in doing so completely miss the mark on the main character, Vash. In the original he's a goofy, womanizing, ace gunsman. Thing is, he uses his humor and goofiness as a coping mechanism for his very ...

Don't let the purists decide for you.
As much as the original Trigun anime was my all time favorite in the early 2000s. This reiteration is written better than the original.

The original started full of gags and filler-ish episodes and took a serious turn just past half of the series while this one is direct to the point with just the right humor elements that doesn't take too much away from the narrative.
Take knives for example as seen on the trailer and the early scenes. The Old version of knives looks like a joke compared to the capabilities of his version here on ...

I know a lot of fans of the old anime have a very negative reaction to this show, but honestly... I like it better? Like... coming from someone who never watched the original series in my childhood, I never had the nostalgia factor, so to me old Trigun had a lot of very obvious flaws. The animation is dated and very static (making fights feel 'meh'), plenty of the humour doesn't land (especially creeping on women), there's filler eps and it's a slog to actually get to something resembling a plot...

Now, stampede resolves a lot of this. The animation is fantastic... say what you will ...

Stampede starts and ends strong, but episodes 2-8 were a struggle to get through.
Let me get this out of the way - I don't care about your thoughts on the original Trigun anime. You liked it? Cool. You hated it? Cool. Whatever. That discussion is not relevant here and I feel it's in bad faith to always compare the two when it's obvious both series were trying to achieve different things, ESPECIALLY knowing how season 1 of Stampede ended.

The very first episode of Stampede was honestly amazing. Everything from the storytelling, the pacing, character interactions, animation, comedy, etc., it was all near perfect. I, for ...

To make this clear from the very start, I haven't watched the original and don't plan to do so.

Trigun Stampede is probably one of the better shows this season, though that's not tough to achieve with Vinland Saga being the only show I‘m actually excited to watch every week. That is not to mean that Stampede isn't a great show, far from it, there is a lot to love about it, but at least after watching episode 3 there is still something missing, a hook to tie it all together and keep me invested.

I‘m going to go over a few of the qualities of the ...

Producer Yoshihiro Watanabe claimed that this show was meant to be a retelling, a fresh take on a decades old story, with no intention to step on anyone's toes.
So this review is with that in mind, because while people claim that you should not compare it to the original anime, the producer himself already made a claim directly related to it.

I find this show near unwatchable, from a technical standpoint. It has different frame rates for different animations and multiple characters animated at the same time in the same shots (big animation no-no).
There is a stylistic choice in making the animation look choppy, ...

Disclaimer: never watched the original Trigun nor read the manga so I don’t have a point of reference or comparison like many who watched this probably do. That said, I came into this with lowest expectations because of the fact that it’s a 3D anime, and boy was I proven wrong. From visual standpoint, this is one of the most beautiful, inspired and epic animation work that I’ve ever seen. Period. It really sold me on the potential of 3D anime. And don’t get me started on the universe, the characters, the battle scenes. All top notch! The protagonist is cool, unique and easily ...

So I usually don't write reviews, but Trigun was one of my first and favorite anime, and later manga too.
Meaning I know both source materials.

This is a retelling. It is not a prequel or an adaptation, it is a retelling.
I understand what it is trying to do, and why it exists.
The writer of this show (probably and hopefully) liked the original, but had some problems with some plotlines or characters.
So what this show does is take the general plot, some of the characters, and the incredible world with its worldbuilding, and tries to tell it's own spin on the original ...

If you've watched the original Trigun series, this reboot might be a bit disappointing.

First thing you'll notice is the CG animation. While there are parts this sticks out like a sore thumb (or arm), the fight and action scenes are pretty impressively gone. But yeah, the vibe CG gives out is just not something that currently be hidden. It's especially jarring when characters are trying to be goofy-expressive with facial expression or they're having a gag scene.

Speaking of gag scenes, 3 episodes in and the series is still not at all funny. It vibe is really too try hard and takes itself far more ...

The original 1998 anime adaptation of Trigun is one of those rare beasts that grew big in North America after flopping in Japan. In fact, it became so successful in America that it spawned a side story movie more than a decade later. Even more surprisingly, after another decade, we're getting this reboot, with the source material having sat finished on the shelf for over 15 years already.

One quick glance at any of the pictures related to Trigun Stampede is enough to tell you that the makers have struck out in a completely new direction in terms of aesthetic. I can't say I was too ...

Just don't. This show is more of an animation studio's failed attempt to make a showcase for their 3d animation prowess than a piece of entertainment made for your enjoyment.

Hate to have to say this, but while this show might be on par with Appleseed from 2004, this isn't what good 3D looks like in a post Dorohedoro world, and yes, everything 3D moving forward WILL be held to that standard Mappa set.

The animation is passable in the same way the old 3D berserk was passable as a means of watching and listening to a story... there is no story here though. Whoever wrote this ...
