"Trigun Stampede" is very stylish - crisp animation, good character design, nice sound design, etc. It is beautiful to look at, no doubt. Sadly, that's about the only good things it has going for it.
Story-wise and plot-wise, it is lacking. I never read the original manga or watched the anime, so I can't make any comparisons. But as a stand-alone anime, this version suffers from mediocrity.
The biggest of which is the lack of skilled story-telling. Instead, we get typical over-expositions, unexplained plot-holes, over-complicated plot lines, etc. All of which makes for an unsatisfying watch.
"Trigun Stampede" is interesting for a first watch-through, but that's all. There's nothing imaginative or thought-provoking that would warrant a repeat watching. Mostly because its premise is too bland.
If you're an anime lover like me, yes, you should give this anime series a try. Just don't expect much.
