It is the story of Vash the Stampede, a.k.a. The Humanoid Typhoon, and the two Bernardelli Insurance Society employees, Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson, who were ordered to follow him and minimize the damage that seems to follow Vash everywhere he goes. Like Himura Kenshin from the manga/anime series Rurouni Kenshin, Vash flips personalities between foolish and clumsy klutz and unstoppable warrior, but always believes that it is wrong to take the life of another, regardless of the circumstances.
Much of the damage attributed to "Vash" is caused 의해 the activities of the bounty hunters who are after the 60,000,000,000$$ (sixty billion "double dollars") reward on Vash's head for the destruction of a city called July. Vash does not clearly remember the destruction of July, and only wants "love and peace", as he puts it; though he is a gunfighter of inhuman skill, he uses his weapons only to save lives wherever he can.
As the series progresses, 더 많이 is gradually learned about Vash's mysterious history and the history of human civilization on Gunsmoke, the alien desert planet the series is set on.

Vash is occasionally joined 의해 the preacher Nicholas D. Wolfwood, who is almost as good a gunfighter as Vash himself, and later is targeted 의해 a band of assassins known as the Gung-Ho 총 for reasons which are mysterious at first.
Trigun evolves into a very serious discussion of the nature of morality, posing 질문 such as: What is the nature of morality? Can we judge different moral codes? If a person is forced to betray their moral code, does that betrayal invalidate that moral code, and can the person still try to live up to that moral code? Can the person find redemption from their wrongs, and if so, how? Trigun also seems to challenge, through its storyline and artwork, common dualistic world views that see good and evil as being equal. It implies that good and evil are not equal and that there is something that stands outside of both and is greater than both.
