Trigun/Fanfic Recs

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Proof that the remaining 10% is worth dying for here:

These are recommendations made by Tropers for Trigun Fan Fics, all of which have to be signed to stay on the page. Feel free to add a fanfic of your own to the list, but remember to use the template found here.

Do warn when a fanfic may head into non-canon territory. Some people just don't like it, and as we all know, Shipping is Serious Business. You can also add to the current recommendations if you want. Refrain from posting Conversation in the Main Page though; that goes in the discussion page.

General Fics

Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.


Plants in the City by Sailor Lilith_chan"

  • Recommended by Shadsie
  • Synopsis: An Alternate Universe/Elseworlds of Trigun which posits the question; "What if Project SEEDS never got off the ground? The result is the cast of Trigun (characters from both the anime and the manga) living their haphazard and dangerous lives in a dingy, polluted mega-city on a dying Earth. Chapters alternate between narration by Wolfwood, third-person narration, and diary entries that give the reader little glimpses into the past.
  • Comments: Alternate Universe done right. Though the setting has changed, the characters remain themselves. Plants are still Plants, The Gung-Ho Guns are still at work, and insurance agents are still insurance agents. The story starts with a fair bit of humor but things get as dark as the Trigun Maximum manga (the way bulb-bound Plants are handled in the Grey City is particularly distrubing). There hasn't been a new chapter since 2008, so it may classify as a Dead Fic.

Shipping Fics

Stories focused on the romantic relationships between the cast.

Forever Mine by Aine of Knockaine

  • Recommended by 1Angry8Ball
  • Synopsis: Vash is back and his brother has agreed to 'try' and see his point of view. Now that everything is finally working out, will he tell Meryl how he feels and have the fairytale ending? Maybe. Then again maybe not, especially with Vash's luck. Post-Anime.
  • Comments: Very well written, excellent characterization. An excellent read by far. NOTE: For Mature Readers Only!
