Synopsis for Trigun Stampide

On Noman’s planet Earth, reporters Meryl Stryfe and Roberto De Niro traverse the desert in search of the infamous outlaw Vash the Stampede. But the man they find near the abandoned town of Jeneora Rock is a far cry from the deadly terrorist they expect. In reality, Vash is a carefree, passive loafer; He is a defender of peace loved by the townspeople. His inaccurate reputation actually stems from the atrocities committed by his twin brother, Knives Millions. Despite this, Vash is nicknamed “The Humanoid Typhoon” due to his propensity for violent chaos.

Chaos soon ensues in the form of bounty hunters seeking the hefty price on Vash’s head, and their violent pursuit poses a great threat to the city and its precious power plant. Vash’s skill with weapons means he is capable of most to resist these nefarious powers. However, he must soon face the ultimate evil: the unstoppable destructive power of his evil brother.
