Trigun Stampede has kept us excited since its first look was unveiled. While it is difficult to tell how faithful the series will be to the source material, further additions to the cast have been revealed.
At the Anime NYC event on Friday, Studio Orange and Crunchyroll revealed a third promo video for Trigun Stampede, revealing three more cast members. Apart from this, concept art was also unveiled, originally created as a foundation stone for the project.
Trigun Stampede will premiere on TV Tokyo and other networks in January 2023. Crunchyroll will stream the series worldwide.
The three new cast members are:
| Character | Character Voice | Previous Work |
| Legato Bluesummers | Kouki Uchiyama | Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (Rui) |
| Zazie the Beast | TARAKO | Hunter x Hunter (Melody) |
| William Conrad | Ryusei Nakao | Dragon Ball Z (Frieza) |
The concept art below mentions that the presentation of the upcoming anime was possible only because the manga was completed. The original Trigun anime ran in 1998, and the manga was ongoing at the same time.
