Normally animation made in Japan tends to premiere in Japan, but Crunchyroll has scored an exclusive. The first place the premiere episode of Trigun Stampede will be viewable ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD is Anime NYC, at the panel for the anime on November 18.
Trigun was first animated in the 1998 series of the same name that ran for 26 episodes. The series premiered in the US on Adult Swim in 2003. Trigun Stampede will be another adaption of the same story, but this time, it’ll be in 3D. Studio Orange, who specializes in CG animation, is bringing the story to life this time.
Trigun takes place on the planet of No Man’s Land and revolves around Vash the Stampede, one of the most notorious and dreaded gunslingers in the world. Here’s the thing, though, Vash is a total pacifist who never means to hurt anyone. He just has this habit of causing a calamity wherever he goes. Every bounty hunter within a 5,000-mine radius is after him, but Vash won’t let that fact stop him from his mission, to stop his estranged brother from destroying the world.
The Trigun Stampede panel will be held from 6:00 – 7:30 PM at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in Panel Room 1. Only Anime NYC attendees will be able to watch. The same panel will also include in-person commentary from the staff at Studio Orange, as well as a special Q&A session.
Each episode of Trigun Stampede will premiere on the same day in both Japan and the US, and be viewable on Crunchyroll. The premiere episode itself won’t technically air until January.
