List of Trigun episodes

Trigun is an anime television series based on the manga of the same name written and illustrated by Yasuhiro Nightow. The series follows Vash the Stampede, the most feared outlaw on the planet, who has a $$60 billion ("double dollar") price on his head. He displays a kindhearted, goofy demeanor and goes out of his way not to hurt anyone if he can help it. Most of the destruction blamed on him is actually caused by the extreme measures people take to capture or kill him for the reward; as a result, he has been nicknamed "The Humanoid Typhoon." As he travels across the planet to meet a certain man, he also meets two women, Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson, tasked with investigating his actions and minimizing the damage associated with them.

The anime was directed by Satoshi Nishimura at Madhouse, with Yōsuke Kuroda handling series composition, Takahiro Yoshimatsu providing character designs, and music composed by Tsuneo Imahori. The series was originally broadcast on TV Tokyo from April 1 to September 30, 1998. It is licensed for DVD and Blu-ray in the United States by Funimation Entertainment, who re-released it on DVD on October 27, 2010. The opening theme is "H.T.", written and arranged by Tsuneo Imahori, while the ending is "Kaze wa Mirai ni Fuku" (風は未来に吹く, lit. "Wind Blows to the Future"), written, composed, arranged, and sung by Akima & Neos. Trigun was released on VHS and Laserdisc, and later DVD, by JVC and marketed by Victor Entertainment in Japan.

The English version was initially released on VHS and DVD by Pioneer Entertainment (U.S.) L.P., and when the company became Geneon, re-released as a new box-set. In the mid-2000s, Geneon re-released Trigun on DVD in a REMIX edition featuring the video, digitally remastered for optimal video quality and the sound, also remastered and remixed in 5.1 Dolby Digital AC-3 surround sound. Funimation re-released the series on DVD in late 2010 upon Geneon's collapse. In the United Kingdom, the anime was released on DVD by MVM Films, starting in 2005 and projected to be finished by the end of 2006 (there were delays due to a fire at a disc duplication plant in August 2005). Also, a single UMD, for PlayStation Portable, was released, named Vol. 1, and contained the first two episodes. Trigun is released on DVD in Australia and New Zealand by Madman Entertainment.

She engages him to protect her, but then takes him into a room in the plant filled with overloading equipment and locks them in, where he is attacked by a blade-wielding masked assassin with long braided hair. She intends to kill Vash, accusing him of destroying the third city of July. She blames him for the way the survivors descended into chaos and violence, leaving her an orphan when she was three years old.

The gang eventually capture Vash and Kaite, but as Neon prepares to kill him, Meryl and Milly, having disguised themselves as gang members, hold him at gunpoint. Vash challenges Neon to a duel and wins, so Neon agrees to stop the steamer, but the braking system no longer functions. To atone for his part in the hijacking, Kaite rushes into the engine room and trips an emergency stop switch when the crew cannot do it. Even with his protective clothing, he is badly burned, but the steamer stops just short of the canyon's edge thanks to his efforts and Neon's surprising use of his own getaway vehicle to force it to a halt.

The two devise a scheme to fake their deaths in the final round, wounding but not killing all the gunmen the organizer hired to capture Vash for the bounty on his head.

To the horror of Meryl and Milly, Vash accepts a $$20 million contract to kill Julius and keep the company in business. Wolfwood reasons that Julius should return to the caravan because people's livelihoods are in danger, a higher priority than the young man's own wellbeing. Vash appears and shoots both Julius and Moore from a distance, convincing everyone that they are dead. However, he actually used rubber bullets so the couple could escape together.

Mine, who is easily beaten and summarily killed by the second, the samurai Rai-Dei the Blade.

Vash finds Knives in the desert oasis of Dimitri. He reflects on the past 130 years since Knives caused the crash of the Project SEEDS fleet and became determined to wipe out all humans on the planet. He even went so far as to create two revolvers that could be used to trigger the brothers' angel arms. Horrified at Knives' plans, Vash shot him and fled with both guns. Taken in by the residents of the Project SEEDS ship that had stayed aloft, Vash located a descendant of Rem in July and traveled there to meet him, only to find him dead at the hand of Knives. Knives then shoots off Vash's left arm and causes Vash to start his angel arm blast. Vash points his arm at Knives and severely injures him in the ensuing blast, which also destroys the town of July. Some time later, Knives subsequently recruited Legato and the Gung-Ho Guns to cause Vash as much pain and suffering as possible. At the oasis, Vash and Knives engage in a protracted battle, both with guns and their angel arms. Knives gains the advantage and prepares to kill Vash, but Vash shoots and wounds Knives using Wolfwood's cross rather than killing him. Vash discards his red coat and gun along with his identity as the Stampede, resolving to honor Rem's memory and trust his own judgment. He bandages Knives and carries him back to Meryl and Milly, who are overjoyed to see him.
