The first season, produced by animation studio Orange, premiered on January 7. Crunchyroll is simulcasting the anime in subtitles and dubs in multiple languages.

Nightow originally published a Trigun one-shot in Monthly Shounen Captain in February 1995. The action adventure manga began regular serialization in April that year but went on hiatus in January 1997 due to the magazine's discontinuation. Tokuma Shoten released the manga in three volumes between April 1996 and January 1999. Shounen Gahousha later republished it in two volumes in June 2000.

Nightow resumed the original manga under the new title Trigun Maximum in Young King OURs in October 1997. After a ten-year run, the manga ended in March 2007. Shounen Gahousha released the manga in 14 volumes between May 1998 and February 2008 and later in seven volumes from February and September in 2010.

Dark Horse Comics licensed the manga in English in June 2003 and released it in two volumes in October 2003 and January 2004, and in an omnibus volume in October 2013. The publisher also released Trigun Maximum between May 2004 and April 2009 and in five omnibus volumes from December 2012 to November 2014.

Madhouse adapted the manga into a 26-episode television anime that aired from April to September 1998. The Trigun: Badlands Rumble side story movie premiered in April 2010.

Synopsis
On the planet Noman's Land, reporters Meryl Stryfe and Roberto De Niro traverse the desert in search of the infamous outlaw Vash the Stampede. But the man they find near the desolate town of Jeneora Rock is a far cry from the lethal terrorist they expect. In reality, Vash is a passive and carefree drifter; he is a proponent of peace, beloved by the residents of the town. His inaccurate reputation actually stems from the widespread atrocities committed by his twin brother Knives Millions. Still, Vash is dubbed "The Humanoid Typhoon'' due to the tendency for violent chaos to follow in his wake.

Chaos soon arrives in the form of bounty hunters seeking the high price on Vash's head, and their violent pursuit poses great danger to the town and its precious power plant. Thanks to his gunslinging prowess, Vash is able to resist most of these nefarious forces. Yet he must soon face off against the ultimate evil: the unstoppable destructive power of his malevolent brother. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
