There is no escape. I must face the past. A person independent of the independent can make good for any wrongs done. This is my atonement.”

Trigun director and author discuss everything
In celebration of the season 1 finale and the season 2 renewal, the series’ website shared a detailed Interview Mangaka Yasuhiro nightow [Naito] Kenji Muto, anime director.
Nightow acknowledged that “The preparation period for this work was very long, and it’s been about five years since the project started. This was why it felt great to finally share something I have been working for so many years with everyone.
“I was also concerned about how it would be received, as the changes were quite drastic compared to the original work. When we first showed the PV at the event, it was very moving to have the enthusiasm and power of the audience return with a feeling of ‘show it again’.”
Muto would then explain how the team viewed original storylines vs anime-original plots, admitting that “We supplemented parts that were not in the original work.”
“In creating Vash and his characters, we based them thoroughly on the original comics and conversations with Naito-sensei. However, the producers have the previous anime series as a prerequisite, so we sometimes came up with episodes that weren’t in the original work during our conversations.”
Nightow would theN end the interview by reflecting on the process of Vash’s journey, as well as the journey that the main production team embarked upon when bringing Trigun Stampede to life.
“I have been watching the process of extracting every element of the original manga, expanding, rearranging, brushing up, building a deep worldview and delving into the characters from the side. It was amazing to see the effort and detail involved. As the original author, I couldn’t help but bet on everything! I felt like I had to bet on everything.”
The iconic mangaka continued, “When I look at what’s coming out every second, there are parts that I’ve skipped over, but it’s better to loosen the reins and let them do what they want. I thought the flying distance would definitely increase if I let them do it freely.”
