One of the Japanese promos calls it "Da Vinci Code meets Jurassic Park". I think that sums it up pretty nicely. It's got dinosaurs, spies, intrigue, action, and conspiracy, all rendered in lovely film noir-esque art with a little fan service cherry on top (Lily!). And for the slightly geeky, it's got cool (and sometimes obscure) references to art, literature, film, history, science... you name it. Definitely a manga for adults!
The actions attributed to "Vash" are largely a result of bounty hunters pursuing the massive reward of 60,000,000,000$$ for Vash's destruction of July. However, Vash's memory of the incident is vague, and he seeks only "love and peace" despite his exceptional gunfighting skills, which he utilizes solely for saving lives. Throughout the course of the series, the audience gradually learns more about Vash's enigmatic past and the history of Gunsmoke, the desert planet where the show takes place. Although the series possesses a humorous tone, it examines weighty character development and can be emotionally intense in later episodes. Vash is occasionally accompanied by Nicholas D. Wolfwood, a talented gunfighter and priest, and eventually becomes the target of the Gung-Ho Guns, a group of assassins whose motives are initially shrouded in mystery. Trigun delves deeply into the realm of morality, exploring questions such as the nature of morality itself and whether we have the ability to evaluate differing moral codes. Additionally, the show tackles the notion of whether a person's betrayal of their moral code negates that code, and whether or not the person can still strive to follow it. The importance of redemption and the means of achieving it are also central themes within the show.
