Complete Trigun Watch Order Guide – Easily Rewatch Trigun Anime

Trigun Stampede introduced the dynamic protagonist Vash, whose backstory and comedy skills are top-notch. His fabulous entry and the suitable soundtracks make the anime a must-watch.

The anime was adapted before the Trigun manga ended, so the anime has a different conclusion than the manga. You can read the manga if unsatisfied with the anime’s ending.

The Trigun franchise consists of three installments: the original 1988 Trigun anime, the Badlands Rumble movie, and a reprise series, Trigun Stampede. Thus, you can estimate that it has a relatively simple watch order.

The best way to watch Trigun anime is by following the release order – the original 1998 anime, followed by the movie, and the 2023 STAMPEDE anime. Since the Trigun movie’s plot doesn’t interfere with season 1, you can watch it after completing the first 26 episodes.

There are many unpaid VPN services at hand or free browser extensions. However, low-tier VPN providers might decrease your speed and block you from streaming services. Connection drops and unsecured encryption are also other disadvantages. 

The important thing is that Trigun is on Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Hulu, so set your VPN to a suitable location to access the anime from anywhere.
