- Not surprising since it's been decades between the 1998 anime and Stampede, but all of the Japanese voice actors have been recast:
- Playing Against Type: Who would have thought that Junya Ikeda who is known for his usually cheerful protagonist roles such as Gai Ikari, Takeru Jakuzure and Ataru Suruga would play as the A God Am I, Soft-Spoken Sadist and Misanthrope Supreme Millions Knives?
- Portmanteau Series Nickname: "TriStamp," used by fans to distinguish the show from other iterations of Trigun.
- Promoted Fanboy: Director Kenji MutÅ has stated before that he was a fan of the original Trigun series and so are other crew members working on Stampede.
- Role Reprise: Johnny Yong Bosch returns as Vash for the English dub, nearly thirteen years after Trigun: Badlands Rumble. This makes him the only VA to have returned for all three English dubs.
- What Could Have Been: Early Concept Art shows that some of Vash's designs were more faithful to his original design. There's also concept art of Wolfwood wearing a wide-brimmed hat and Badass Long Coat. Some of the concept art was used as stills at the end of each episode. In some other concept arts, Vash had a face mask for desert travel and glasses without stems. Some of Roberto's concept art show him having an eyepatch, and he and Meryl are dressed in ways more akin to what the JuLai Military Police are wearing. One of Zazie's earlier mask designs looked like something akin to a Balinese mask that would open up to have the face of a bee.
