| i think the CGI is alright, smooth and not choppy but has a weird look i really dislike the redesigns and no milly (still) i also am not a big fan on how much this episode covered already compared to the old one (knives, rem, the ship, and so on) i wonder how it will play out as more episodes air |
| I've never watched the old Trigun or know anything about it. But this episode was SO GOOD, the animation, smooth expressions, camera movements, it was all great. I know Studio Orange did great in Houseki no Kuni and Beastars, but this exceeded my expectations and I loved it a lot |
| The animation isn't bad since it's Orange, but it's simply unappealing. The original is in my PTW and looks like it will be the only version I'll watch in its entirety. |
 |
| A solid start for Stampede. Loved the animation and the direction of the story. My favorite part was the subtle world building with the mid card of No Man’s Land. It made me want to see more of the planet. Excited for episode 2. |
"To Infinity and Beyond."  |
| Ending is good. I like it |

AzureFlameV said: But Vash character literally remains the same, the only thing that has changed about him (until now) was his look. He always did everything he could to avoid his fights, and sometimes he wasn't even "acting".There are some good things here, I'll try to enjoy this as a separate alternative version. While i enjoyed some things here i didn't like how they made Vash look like a real coward instead of being just an "Act/Faking it" like the original. |
 |
| i tried watching the original trigun but didnt get interested. this one also looks great but i am not sold on the plot yet same as the original. would try to finish it |
| I was going into this pretty skeptical and really felt iffy about the new aesthetic, and all the differences they made with the characters. But I have to say, I really enjoyed this first episode. They sure did make Meryl surprisingly cute (both in looks and personality), which is fairly different compared to how she was in the original. I don't dislike it, as now she is easily a lot more likable, fun and even seems to play along with Vash's goofiness now. Having Robert be the serious one is a good change of pace for Meryl. The CGI looks really good. The funny thing is, you can easily tell they did Beastars because the character movements when they talk is nearly identical XD. It kept reminding me of Beastars while watching them talk to each other. But that's a good thing, they are really good at that and is one of the things that really impressed me about Beastars. This studio is really good at their CGI, and I am glad to see it still is holding true with Trigun Stampede. |

DumbCat said: Did you watched the first anime? We had the exact same joke about him being out of bullets in the first episode too. And about Vash being tied upside down, Roberto said it was done by the Bad Lad Gang. They probably also stole his bullets. Watch things more carefully next time and you won't be so confused like that.Okay so, the first few minutes were very... weird? I mean they barely conveyed anything especially to new people it doesn't establish much in terms of the narrative of knives damning humanity to the desert planet and it wastes a lot of time on some space escape sequence... very odd choice. then Vash hanging upside down alongside corpses... odd again but fine. then a small sequence about how he saved the town then fight and the "oopsie no bullets XD" which I didn't really like? I miss the old look, for this episode I'd give it 4.5/10. |

This studio is really good at their CGI, and I am glad to see it still is holding true with Trigun Stampede. just watch land of the lustrous for thier peak cgi I've seen it. It's really good and enjoyed it quite a lot. But I do prefer Beastars more. It actually wasn't that long ago that I learned they were the same studio behind Land of the Lustrous. Makes sense though given how good the CGI in that one was as well. I think it was one of the first CGI anime that I actually thought looked great and showed that it could be done well. |

| I like it! Honestly, I agree. The new animated style and design are fine. I don't think it's too much of a hindrance. Besides, there were a couple of action sequences that were really good in my eyes. I like the tone in the first episode too! Yeah, I think I'm gonna enjoy this new adaption. |

| The CG seems something out of a video game. And apparently they are replacing Milly with some random dude. |

returntothenhk said: I'm not familiar with Trigun, so no biases whatsoever, i thought this was an amazing debut episode.Not sure if I’m riding off the high of being a hardcore Trigun fan and getting more content after awhile or that was just super cool! Animation is incredible! It’s different, but has the spirit of the original manga. Excited to see more. |

StaleNut said: If I'm not wrong, during an event with the anime staff, people asked why they replaced Milly with him, and then they answered that Roberto isn't an replacement. Maybe it's a hint that she might still show up later.LordSozin said: Really? I thought maybe Milly gonna come later. No they remodeled her entire character. She's Robert De Niro now. |

| First off, Vash looks cool. Hair and glasses nice. Coat… not so much (his old trench was much better). Meryl is a bit of a disappointment. I miss the overly confident professional who is a stickler for following standards and protocols. This version is characterized as being green and a total newbie to the world —- which doesn't really make any sense to me. Even if someone is just out of journalism school, I get that they could be a little naive, but the way DiNero is constantly berating her, super annoying. Journalists are usually quite up to date with how the world is and how it works. This characterization just feels off to me. Not to mention DiNero is a pretty grating character (with a horrible looking mustache). Never thought I would miss Milly…. Some of the CG movements seemed a little wonky to me, but other aspects looked quite good. Fingers crossed this gets better. I am cautiously hopeful. |
| It's been over 20 years since I watched the original Trigun so my memory is rather foggy about it, but I think that in the original the background story about the Seed Ships and the two brothers came a lot later in the story. Otherwise, the new one does generally feel like I remember the original feeling. And the new animation is rather impressive. I'll watch this one and see how it goes. (I vaguely remember feeling a little disappointed with the ending of the original, but that probably was because I watched Trigun just after I watched the original Japanese broadcast of Cowboy Bepop.) |
| Solid first episode! The cg is stylized, the characters are very expressive and the action just made me nut it was so good. |
 |
| this is a pretty bad bastardization of the original series in just about every respect. absolutely let down by this. doesn't even feel like anime, and the characters are all wrong not to mention just replacing milly with some guy. this feels like another poor netflix or disney reboot that only uncultured zoomers could like because they never saw the original. |
 |
| The animation style bothers me to no end. The original anime was so good for it's time. It's hard to watch this in all 3DCGI. I'm going to give this a go anyway as the story (I am watching it now at 14:06 so far) is pretty good. Maybe it's the way the frame rate looks but this is gonna be hard. The backgrounds are good though. 😑 |
| Damn I am definitely in for this shit. The character animation is a little laggy at some points but overall it looks so fucking good. I was completely sucked in. |
 |
| Loved Trigun back in the day and wasn't expecting much, but damn....That looked gorgeous. Amazing modern animation. Didn't like Vash's design too much though but it's a small thing. Your average MAL'er ca.2023 is gonna hate this though. |

Are you sure about that? I like the original Trigun and liked this new one too. The first anime is a classic for sure, but it has aged like milk LMAO! The animation just gets worse and worse towards the end, full of inconsistencies. You're being so emotional due the nostalgia effect, so stop crying over nothing and move on, boomer. |

EpicPrankBro said: It's amazing that shills are so prevalent that they even seem to be here? How much of their budget went to shilling? "Studio Orange blah blah amazing 10/10" Canned NPC response. If you have a soul .. You can see this for what it is. Otherwise? I believe you may lack a human soul. Simple as that. I'll probably watch it like you might watch the mating habits of cockroaches. Simply to learn about the enemy. And yet you went to the bothersome lengths of setting up an alternate account just to bash it. Just reflect on how sad that is. Go out, touch some grass and remember the golden rule: other people can like other things than you. |

| The anime industry grows faster than us, so we either adapt or we stay behind lingering, with our beautiful 2D animes. I was really looking forward to this, and I can't hide my disappointment in the animation approach. The original (rated 10/10 in my list, higher than I rated the manga) essentially sets a variety of high level expectations for returning viewers, art, detail, humour, plot, colours, and characters, basically all that anime used to be about before it fell to miserable levels like CSM or the like. It's ep 1, it's not a sequel and not a re-make, it'e early and hard to say in what direction the plot is going to, art and animation is not to my liking as I'm just slightly ancient, but I am willing to give it few more episodes chance to redeem itself story-wise, regardless. I would certainly appreciate it if they don't butcher the characters' personalities any further, and I will only say Milly's absence is just incomprehencible and unforgivable, no excuse. Ep 1 was alright, I hope they don't murder an epic series while all knowing too well how high the bar is set |
