Yosuke Kuroda best works

I was a huge fan of this guys work but most of his early works seem like slowburns now. I rewatched Trigun, it was enjoyable and had a great finale but it felt generic western in the first half and they really relied on the western setting of no food or water and they could've gotten into more of the mythology of the villains more. I know him best as the guy who wrote SCRYED and GUNDAM 00, Trigun and a sunrise writer Please Teacher. But he also did the fanservice heavily Mermaid Drive and Maken Ki. Thoughts, I described his early work but I know he's done some big adaptions

He was just the screenwriter for Trigun. He didn't create it, he just adapted the manga created by Yasuhiro Nightow.

That manga only had about twenty published chapters when the anime was made.

s-CRY-ed/i] really owes more to Goro Taneguchi, who was responsible for the series concept and original proposal.

Most of his body of work is adaptations, as you'd expect for practically any writer working in the 90's and 00's. He can't exactly claim credit for the content of those, since he was adapting an existing work.
