Trigun Stampede: Crunchyroll Announces English Voice Cast & More
Crunchyroll announced the full English dub cast for Trigun Stampede, joining Jonny Yong Bosch, who reprises his role as Vash the Stampede.
The Trigun Stampede English dub cast has been announced to join Johnny Yong Bosch, who is reprising his role as Vash the Stampede after he voiced the character in 1998's Trigun and 2010's Trigun: Badlands Rumble.

Trigun is a popular action manga series from the 1990s by Yasuhiro Nightow that follows the story of Vash the Stampede, a legendary gunman and a pacifist with a bounty on his head. Trigun Stampede is produced by the animation studio Orange (BEASTARS; Land of the Lustrous). The new series is directed by Kenji Muto (Land of the Lustrous episode director).
As the synopsis goes, "Vash the Stampede is a joyful gunslinging pacifist, so why does he have a $$6 million bounty on his head? That's what's puzzling rookie reporter Meryl Stryfe and her jaded veteran partner when looking into the vigilante only to find someone who hates blood. But their investigation turns out to uncover something heinous—his evil twin brother, Millions Knives."
