Trigun Maximum

Trigun Maximum (トライガンマキシマム,) is a direct continuation of the Trigun manga by Yasuhiro Nightow.

After Young King OURs previously hired Nightow to create a new manga, Nightow instead was troubled by the idea of leaving Trigun unfinished; which would make fans of the series upset, therefore, requested to resume the series until it was finally finished. Only one request was made by the higher-ups, which was to rename the manga. The manga ran from the start of July on 1998, finishing in April 8th of 2008.

Shōnen Gahōsha collected all 14 volumes of Trigun Maximum and compiled it into 7 complete edition volumes titled "Trigun Omnibus" in 2010. Dark Horse Comics later translated the omnibuses into English in 2013.

Plot

The two continue their journey fighting the Gung-Ho Guns, with the insurance girls, Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson, trailing after them. At the climax of the series, Vash marches alongside Livio the Doublefang, a former villain-turned-hero, to face Elendira the Crimsonnail, Legato Bluesummers, and Knives Millions. With support from Luida's forces---Vash's longtime human friends for the past century---Knives' plan to destroy human life on Earth is thwarted. After the series' final battle and months of hiding, Meryl and Milly find Vash once more and interview him, revealing that they have changed jobs and have become reporters.
