you might like Gungrave.

it's from the same creator as Trigun, but it's a sci-fi crime-drama.

I've watched Cowboy Bebop and Gungrave. They're pretty great. Although Gungrave has a more serious tone than Trigun overall.
Trigun starts pretty goofy and becomes grim.

Baccano! has a fun vibe to it.

it's about prohibition era gangsters, but with a twist.

and not exactly the same, but Hellsing Ultimate.

Alucard wears a big red jacket and uses big guns.

If you primarily like the gunfights in those shows moreso than the space aspects, check out shows like Lupin The Third, Black Lagoon, Noir, or Gunslinger Girl. Lupin is a bit more lighthearted, but the rest are pretty serious stories with high stakes and drama. There's also Grenadier, which has pretty much the exact same "wandering gunman who's a really good shot but actually just wants to spread love and peace" premise as Trigun, except with a different setting and a (very well-endowed) female main character.

If you were more into Outlaw Star and Cowboy Bebop for the futuristic space exploration aspects, then I'll recommend Space Dandy and Bodacious Space Pirates. They're both more lighthearted (and Space Dandy is downright comedic) but still have a similarly relaxing feel of adventuring through the cosmos. If you want a more serious space-themed anime with more drama, look into Legend Of The Galactic Heroes or the Gundam franchise.

Ruroni Kenshin? it's different with sword fights but does have a pacifist main character.

i'll second Lupin The Third. It's definitely old tho and you can tell with the animation. but like it doesn't really look bad or anything. just not as good as modern ones.

Both Lupin Part 4 and Lupin Part 5 were made this past decade and look great.

But yeah, the older series that used to air on Adult Swim is also a classic. I think that was Part 2

Both seasons of Blood Blockade Battlefront if you haven't seen it yet, same author as Trigun so similar visual style and action/comedy.

Isn't that the show where the girl reloads her gun with her breasts or something?

Not going to mention the ones already mentioned but I will add:

Coyote Ragtime Show
Martian Successor Nadesico
Get Backers
Lost Universe
Irresponsible Captain Tylor
Vandread
Arcadia of My Youth

Stay away from Outlaw Star's sequel, Angel Links. It pretty much sucks.

For lack of a better way to phrase it, yes.

Grenadier is good even beyond the fanservice though. It took the whole "wandering airhead who can be an absolute badass when needed" idea that Trigun and Rurouni Kenshin made famous and put its own spin (or rather, bounce) on it while still doing the story/character development pretty well.

I'd say Kenshin and Trigun have quite a few things in common. Even Lupin and Outlaw Star, though that's to a lesser degree.
