description World Trigger Overview
When a gate to another world suddenly opens on Earth, Mikado City is invaded by strange creatures known as "Neighbors," malicious beings impervious to traditional weaponry. In response to their arrival, an organization called the Border Defense Agency has been established to combat the Neighbor menace through special weapons called "Triggers." Even though several years have passed after the gate first opened, Neighbors are still a threat and members of Border remain on guard to ensure the safety of the planet. Despite this delicate situation, members-in-training, such as Osamu Mikumo, are not permitted to use their Triggers outside of headquarters.
help World Trigger FAQ
Why is Yuma Kuga different from the other Neighbors in World Trigger?
Yuma is a humanoid Neighbor who enters Mikado City carrying a powerful Black Trigger and the autonomous companion Replica. Instead of invading Earth, he befriends Border trainee Osamu Mikumo and helps form Tamakoma Second.
How do Triggers and Trion bodies work in World Trigger?
A Trigger converts a user's Trion energy into weapons and a replaceable combat body. This lets Border agents fight with blades, guns, shields, and specialized options without exposing their physical bodies to ordinary battlefield injuries.
Is World Trigger mainly about alien invasions or Border rank wars?
It begins with the Neighbor threat, but much of the series follows tactical B-Rank Wars between Border squads. Osamu, Yuma, and Chika must improve their teamwork and ranking if they want to join an expedition into the Neighborhood.
How much World Trigger anime is there after the original series?
Toei Animation's original run began in 2014 and contains 73 episodes, including an anime-original fugitive arc. Two shorter sequel seasons followed in 2021, continuing the B-Rank Wars with updated pacing and animation.
