The following is a list of media relating to the [[anime]] and [[manga]] series ''[[Trigun]]'' by [[Yasuhiro Nightow]].


==Manga==
'''''Trigun''''' (トライガン) is a 26-episode [[Anime]] series which originally aired in 1998 in Japan. Based on a [[manga]] by [[Yasuhiro Nightow]], it is the story of Vash the Stampede, a.k.a. The Humanoid Typhoon, and the two Bernardelli Insurance Society employees, Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson, who were ordered to follow him and minimize the damage that seems to follow Vash everywhere he goes.

{{main|List of Trigun episodes}}


==Music==
Much of the damage attributed to "Vash" is caused by the activities of the bounty hunters who are after the $$60,000,000,000 ($$ = double dollar) reward on Vash's head for the destruction of a city called July (which, amazingly, resulted in no direct loss of life to the city's inhabitants). Vash does not clearly remember the destruction of July, and only wants "love and peace," as he puts it; though he is a gunfighter of near god-like skill, he uses his weapons only to save lives wherever he can (even the lives of those who try to kill him).
Trigun features music by [[Tsuneo Imahori]].


===Soundtracks===
As the series progresses, more is gradually learned about Vash's mysterious history and the history of human civilization on Gunsmoke, the alien desert planet the series is set on. The series is often humorous in tone, but at the same time it involves very serious character development and especially in later episodes it becomes quite emotionally intense. Vash is occasionally joined by the preacher Nicholas D. Wolfwood, who is almost as good a gunfighter as Vash himself, and later is targeted by a band of assassins known as the Gung-Ho Guns for reasons which are mysterious at first.


====''Trigun: The First Donuts''====
''Trigun'' evolves into a very serious discussion of the nature of morality, posing questions such as: What is the nature of morality? Can we judge different moral codes? If a person is forced to betray their moral code, does that betrayal invalidate that moral code, and can the person still try to live up to that moral code? Can the person find redemption from their wrongs, and if so, how?

{{Track listing
''Trigun'' was created by the animation studio [[Studio Madhouse]] and is licensed in the United States by [[Pioneer USA]]. In 2003, ''Trigun'' began broadcast as part of [[Cartoon Network]]'s [[Adult Swim]] programming block.
| headline =
| total_length = 01:14:40


| title1 = NO-BEAT
Like many other series, Trigun is the subject of a lot of [[yaoi]] [[fanfiction]], due to the number of [[bishonen]] characters.

| length2 = 3:44


| title3 = BLOOD AND THUNDER
== Characters ==
| note3 =
===Vash the Stampede (''The Humanoid Typhoon'')===
| length3 = 3:38
The main character. He was initially discovered by Meryl and Milly imprisoned by some bandits who wanted to collect on the $$60 billion. He escapes, and Milly and Meryl eventually learn that this is the person they are supposed to track. Vash presents an interesting "hero" for this kind of story, a crybaby and a pacifist, and occasionally an apparent buffoon. He is in fact extremely intelligent, has god-like reflexes, perfect muscle control, bluring short distence speed, and an unrivalled gunman who seeks to preserve life where ever possible. It is possible he exaggerates his foolish characteristics to make people feel unthreatened and to hide his identity. In fact Vash shows focus and complete control when the chips are down and when attacking. It is likly Vash is accually scared in most of his fights, because he usually has no intent of shooting back, and only evades the opponent's attacks. He lost his left arm in an incident involving Knives, and, as a result, possesses a prosthetic arm that transforms into a gun at the hand. Vash is in fact not a human, but a human-like "plant", a source of power and energy on the planet; as a Plant, he can, with his gun (which resembles a [[Mateba Autorevolver]] because of the lower barrel alignment but which, according to writing on the barrel, fires .45 Long Colt ammunition like a [[Single Action Army]]), turn his right arm into an amazingly destructive weapon called an "Angel Arm," originating from technology which Knives created. His supposed age is 131.
He is superhumanly agile, demonstrating the ability to dodge bullets on several occasions.
The inscription on his gun reads; "EF Auto Ejecting Double Action".


| title4 = KNIVES
Vash the Stampede makes a [[cameo]] appearance in [[Wild ARMs 2nd Ignition]].
| note4 =
| length4 = 3:18


| title5 = Permanent Vacation
==="Derringer Meryl" Stryfe===
| note5 =
She and her junior co-worker Milly were sent by the Bernardelli Insurance Society to evaluate claims regarding Vash the Stampede. Despite her serious attitude and short temper, she is a good person. Initially, she didn't know who he was and found Vash to be a nuisance. As time passes, she realizes that Vash isn't the villain that he is made out to be. Although she doesn't often fight alongside Vash, she hides many derringer style "throwaway" pistols under her coat. Gradually, she comes to respect Vash and love him deeply. It is hinted that Meryl has problems involving her family and that she is in her 20s.
| length5 = 5:14


| title6 = Blue Funk
==="Stungun Milly" Thompson===
| note6 =
Friend and assistant of Meryl, she also works for the Bernardelli Insurance Society. Despite physically towering over Meryl, Milly looks up to her and always refers to her as "sempai" (a term of respect for a senior). Although physically very strong, she appears rather simple and ditzy, but has an extremely kind heart and also reveals a strength of character and genuine optimism. However, Milly can be just as hotheaded as Meryl if someone is disrespectful towards their family. She can seem somewhat dim, but she has some amazing skills (chess playing, for one) which hint at a deeply buried intelligence. She does, however, have a tendency to go a bit overboard when drinking. She seemed to pick up on the fact that Vash was the wandering gunman before Meryl, but she didn't completely realize that she was right. Milly comes from a very large family, and writes letters to them constantly, usually every night (they're known as "The Milly Monthly"), causing her to run late. She is also very fond of pudding. Somehow under her coat Milly manages to hide a very heavy concussion gun (referred to as a "stun-gun", although it can knock over trucks) that shoots bullets that pop out in a X shaped claw. As the story progesses, Milly begins to form a relationship with Nicholas Wolfwood.
| length6 = 3:28


| title7 = PHILOSOPHY in a Tea Cup
===Kuroneko-sama===
| note7 =
Kuroneko-sama (Japanese for "black cat lord/lady") is, as her name suggests, a black cat. (Yasuhiro Nightow has said that the cat is female, and he would know: Kuroneko-sama was one of the first characters he created for the manga.) Her formal name is Kuroneko Kukan, or Black Cat Space. She appears in every episode (with the exception of episode 17: Rem Saverem) at least once, usually as a running joke of popping her oval-shaped, green-eyed head on screen at some opportune moment and usually uttering a simple "nyaa." (Some of her appearances are truly laugh-out-loud funny: in the episode "Fifth Moon," when Vash is clearing out the city of Augusta, he fires into the air and is quite surprised when the cat lands on his head with a "nyaa," then jumps off.) Kuroneko-sama may have some connection with Vash, but that, like her appearances, is a mystery.
| length7 = 4:34


| title8 = NOT AN ANGEL
Kuroneko-sama makes a [[cameo]] appearance in [[Wild ARMs 2nd Ignition]].
| note8 =
| length8 = 2:59


| title9 = Cynical Pink
===Nicholas D. Wolfwood===
| note9 =
A preacher and an excellent gunman, who in the original Japanese version speaks [[Osaka]] dialect. Nicholas and Vash meet in the desert when Vash's bus runs across Nicholas' motorcycle. He proves to be a valuable ally, but sometimes Vash and Wolfwood's philosophies conflict. In the end, he comes over to Vash's way of thinking, even though he was associated with Knives the whole time. Nicholas' purpose was to raise money for children he was taking care of at a church. Nick loves children, a good reason he and Milly hit it off so well. He lived with his uncle when he was younger and shot his uncle because he was a violent alcoholic. Afterwards he was somewhat adopted and trained to fight and shoot by Chapel. Many other facts about Wolfwood are unknown. The giant cross that he carries, the Cross Punisher, holds 10 pistols (right and left arms of cross), is a giant machinegun (long part of the cross) and finally, a rocket launcher in the top. He was inducted into the Gung-Ho Guns for his service to Knives. As can be expected, the weapon/case is very heavy and only Wolfwood and Milly seem to have no trouble holding it. Wolfwood states that its heavy "because it's full of mercy."
| length9 = 3:47
| title10 = Sound Life ~ REM
| note10 =
| length10 = 5:24


| title11 = 風は未来に吹く
===Rem Saverem===
| note11 = The Wind Blows in the Future
Rem was one of the original crew members who intended to repopulate the planet Gunsmoke for the perpetuation of the human race. She was both a mentor and a mother figure to Vash and Knives when they were children. Her teachings of love and peace, especially that no one has the right to take a life, have a profound influence on Vash. She taught him that each life is important and can not be given a value lesser or greater than any other life. She dies along with the crew and most of the human ships when Knives sabotages their course, causing all but a few human ships to burn up in the planet's atmosphere. Vash has always loved Rem; this love is probably an important source of courage for his actions. He pays homage to her by wearing a red coat based on the red Geranium, her favorite flower. Geranium is a symbol for determination. As adults, Knives blames her for his brother's softness; Vash blames Knives for the death of Rem. Often Rem is the guiding force for Vash whenever he must face difficult sitations; he often speaks to her indirectly both in dreams and during waking daydream-like sequences.
| length11 = 3:44
| title12 = H.T.
| note12 =
| length12 = 1:32


| title13 = WINNERS
===Millions Knives===
| note13 =
Vash's twin brother, who believes that humanity is a plague that must be exterminated because their survival means the destruction of the plants. He first tried to convince Vash to join his quest, but eventually the two became bitter rivals. Like his brother, Knives also has an Angel Arm.
| length13 = 3:33
Knives has an obsessive personality, vowing especially to wipe out the human race. He believes that humans are impure and inferior beings that don't care about the way things are, and act only to better themselves. Vash feels he will never be able to live freely without facing Knives.


| title14 = Never Could Have Been Worse
====Legato Bluesummers====
| note14 =
He loves death, and devotes his life to making Vash the Stampede experience eternal pain and suffering. He is the extremely telepathic leader of the Gung Ho Guns. His strong resonance with Vash as well as his psychic powers actually stem from the fact that Vash's left arm is grafted onto him; its plant properties give him powers not inherently human. He can force his victims to do anything he wishes through powerful telepathy.
| length14 = 5:00


| title15 = Stories to Tell
===The Gung-Ho Guns===
| note15 =
The Gung-Ho Guns are a group of 12 people assembled by Knives to cause great pain to Vash the Stampede. Each one is human, but has sacrificed their humanity in order to gain power, often leaving them mutilated.
| length15 = 2:36


| title16 = People Everyday
====Monev The Gale====
| note16 =
The first Gung-Ho Gun to attack Vash; he trained for twenty years before the fight. He carries two high-powered chain guns on his arms. These guns fire extremely fast due to the pressure chambers located on his back. He can also combine the chain guns and the pressure chambers to make an extremely powerful gun which is capable of shooting faster than the chain guns, it also is capable of firing missiles.
| length16 = 2:57


| title17 = Fool's Paradise
====Dominique The Cyclops====
| note17 =
'''''Second Gung ho Gun'''''
| length17 = 4:10


| title18 = YELLOW ALERT
Has a device known as the "Demons Eye". The device is installed in her eye and induces hypnosis and sensory paralysis on her foe(s), therefore making her movements seem to move at lightspeed, when she is really just placing the foe(s) in a trance. The eye simply has a red pupil.
| note18 =
| length18 = 3:07


| title19 = Carrot & Stick
====E.G. Mine====
| note19 =
'''''Fifth Gung ho Gun'''''
| length19 = 4:00


| title20 = Perfect Night
Uses his shell to deploy exploding spikes towards an enemy.

====Gray the Ninelives====
===Theme songs===
; Opening : "H.T." written and arranged by [[Tsuneo Imahori]].
Famous for having nine lives. In actuality, he's an android covered in nearly indestructible armor.
; Ending : "Wind Blows to the Future" (風は未来に吹く ''Kaze wa Mirai ni Fuku'') written, composed, arranged, and sung by [[Akima & Neos]].
; Character development : "Sound Life" by Tsuneo Imahori - associated with the character of Rem, and by extension Vash's early life. It is a story of the development of a world, starting on the first evening and ending on the eighth morning (something like the Bible story of creation). The final verse of the song (in Japanese) is: ''Saa...atarashii sora ni subete wo shirushita kumikyoku ga hibiku'', which translates to "Well then...A song that has recorded everything echoes to the new sky." The song has been on the planet for as long as humans have.

Theme songs

[edit]
Opening
"H.T." written and arranged by Tsuneo Imahori.
Ending
"Wind Blows to the Future" (風は未来に吹く Kaze wa Mirai ni Fuku) written, composed, arranged, and sung by Akima & Neos.
Character development
"Sound Life" by Tsuneo Imahori - associated with the character of Rem, and by extension Vash's early life. It is a story of the development of a world, starting on the first evening and ending on the eighth morning (something like the Bible story of creation). The final verse of the song (in Japanese) is: Saa...atarashii sora ni subete wo shirushita kumikyoku ga hibiku, which translates to "Well then...A song that has recorded everything echoes to the new sky." The song has been on the planet for as long as humans have.

Games

[edit]

A video game, Trigun: The Planet Gunsmoke, was announced in 2002 by Sega and to be developed by Red Entertainment.[3] While never officially canceled, there have been no mentions of the game since its original announcement.

Canadian company Guardians of Order released a hardbound role-playing game (RPG) book in December 2003 based on the Trigun TV series. This was not a self-contained RPG rulebook, but worked with the company's BESM anime RPG rule set. The book contains summaries of all 26 episodes of the TV series, along with character profiles, animation model sheets, production sketches, and color images from the series.
