Full trailer, new villains, theme song artists, returning cast & more — plus Crunchyroll streaming confirmed.
If you thought Trigun Stampede was intense, 2026 is about to dial everything up again.
At Tokyo Comic-Con 2025, the franchise stepped forward with guns loaded — a full new trailer, cast additions, music reveal, and finally, a premiere date. The much-anticipated TRIGUN STARGAZE begins airing January 10, 2026 on TV Tokyo, with Crunchyroll confirming same-day streaming outside Japan. The wait for Vash just got shorter.
New Trailer and Theme Songs Announced
The new trailer of Trigun Stargaze gives us a colder, sharper look at Vash’s next chapter — set 2.5 years after Stampede, as the franchise enters what has been called its final phase.
Two new tracks have been confirmed:
– Opening Theme: Picaresque Hero — by Ano
– Ending Theme: Stardust — by FOMARE
Both songs sound like they’re built for desert winds, gun smoke, and heartbreak — the perfect TRIGUN energy.
New Villains Join the Hunt
The announcement also introduced more adversaries stepping into Vash’s path in Trigun Stargaze:
| Character | Voice Actor |
|---|---|
| Leonof the Puppet-Master | Cho |
| Hoppered the Gauntlet | Taketora |
| Midvalley the Hornfreak | Shinichirō Miki |
Cold, strange, and beautifully dangerous — exactly the type of enemies this world breeds.
Returning Cast — Old Names, New Stakes
Characters we know — and fear — are back:
Kōki Uchiyama as Legato Bluesummers
Ayumu Murase as Elendira the Crimsonnail
TARAKO as Zazie the Beast
Ryūsei Nakao as William Conrad
Ryūji Satō now voices Millions Knives
Chika Ayamori joins as Milly Thompson, finally re-entering Trigun after her absence in Stampede
The cast feels like TRIGUN history tying itself into one last knot.
Quick Story Recap for Fans
TRIGUN is the story of Vash the Stampede, a wandering outlaw with a 60 billion double dollar bounty on his head — not because he destroys towns, but because destruction always follows him. Vash is a pacifist with the skills of a demon, and the universe can’t decide whether he’s a hero or a curse.
Stargaze picks up years later, with Vash stepping into a future shaped by loss, war, and humanity’s ugliest sides. New villains hunt him. Old ghosts return. Morality breaks.
And the desert keeps breathing.
