"World Trigger" is serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump and is currently being serialized in Jump SQ. Due to the author's sudden illness, the anime broadcast was temporarily halted, but the second season was broadcast safely, and the third season is scheduled to be broadcast from October. So, this time I've summarized what the second season of the anime was about!
World Trigger 2nd Episode 1 Attack
Six elite soldiers from Aftokrator's vassal state "Galopula" were planning an attack on Miden under instructions from their home country. Aftokrator is holding Miden back in Galopula due to domestic circumstances, but the order also has political implications, as it aims Miden at Galopula. Captain Gatlin plans an attack on the base. Jin Yuichi predicts the Galopula attack and predicts the future in which Tachikawa will be cut down.
Episode 1②
Galopula deploys the Trion soldiers it has received as support from Rodokrune outside the base, and the battle begins with them being attacked. Border's snipers are entangled by dog-like Trion soldiers, causing their supporting fire to cease, and the battle reaches a stalemate as the Trion soldiers outnumber them. Commander Gatlin, his subordinates Wen and Rattlikov take this opportunity to infiltrate Border's base. Nasu Rei and Kumagai Tomoko of Nasu Squad, who have been waiting inside the base, enter into combat with Wen, who has become the rear guard.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 2 Clash
Outside the base, Miwa's unit and Koskero of Galopula are in a state of combat, while inside the base, Nasu, Kumagai, and Wen are in a state of combat. They are forced to struggle against Wen, who is good at coordinating with Trion soldiers and using disruptive tactics. Meanwhile, Gatlin and Rattarikov arrive at the hangar of the expeditionary craft without any particular hindrance. There, Tachikawa, Kazama, Konan, and Murakami are waiting for them. Border's plan is for four elite members to welcome the two. Meanwhile, Hughes had escaped from Tamakoma Second's branch and was trying to contact Galopula in order to return to his home country.
Episode 2②
The battle between Tachikawa, Kazama, Konan, and Murakami and Gatlin and Ratalikoff begins, with Gatlin using the "Executioner (Basilissa)" trigger and Ratalikoff using the "Dancer (Despinis)" trigger. Gatlin fires a high-powered cannon to destroy the hangar of the expedition boat, but Murakami takes the fire and takes great damage, but is still alive. Tachikawa, Konan, and Gatlin engage in combat, while Kazama deals with Rattarikov. Outside, a firefight with Trion soldiers is taking place, but in the middle of it all, a Trion soldier with a clearly different movement appears.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 3: The Final Battle
The pairs Sasamori & Tsuji and Kuroe & Kitora deal with the two remotely controlled Trion soldiers, but even after defeating them, more appear, and Kuroe's Idaten's specifications are seen through and he takes damage, forcing them into a difficult battle. Meanwhile, both Nasu and Kumagai were struggling with the clone trigger used by Wen. However, Nasu overlooked the clone trick as it was a trigger installed on the ceiling and went around to destroy it. Wen tried to settle the matter before the clone disappeared, but Kikuchihara appeared just before and discovered the location of the main body and defeated him.
Episode 3②
Outside the base, Miwa and Yoneya confront Koskero, and Miwa asks if they were the ones who attacked four and a half years ago. Taking advantage of the conversation, Koskero activates a trap he had set and captures the two. However, that series of conversations was a bluff to stop Koskero's feet, and the real target was a long-distance attack by Jin's black trigger. Koskero, who could not cope with the attack, was also defeated. Based on Jin's prediction, the outside troops began annihilation without regard for exhaustion, and the battle situation changed drastically. Regindetz tried to lead them to the city, but was ignored because he knew that there would be no damage to the city due to Jin's prediction.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 4 Destiny
The battle in front of the expedition boat was also reaching its climax, and Gatlin was looking for an opportunity to try high-powered artillery fire. Kazama disappears with Chameleon, defeats Rattarikov using one arm as a decoy, and Gatlin tries to fire while hiding the line of fire with Tachikawa's body, but Konan cuts Gatlin and Tachikawa and defeats him. Murakami holds off the final bombardment. However, the Galopula forces leave the front line due to an emergency escape that should be Miden's technology.
Episode 4②
Meanwhile, Regindetz, who headed for the city, encounters Hughes. Yotaro appears there and hands him Lambilis, telling him to take it if he goes home. Regindetz, eager to achieve success after the mission failed, threatens Hughes, saying that if he captures Yotarou, who he is chasing, as a hostage, he will put him on the expedition ship, but Hughes bluffs and tells him that he has been abandoned by his home country, and is instantly killed by Lambilis. Galopula is ultimately unable to complete the mission and is forced to reconsider its future direction.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 5 New Techniques
After surviving Galopula's attack, the B-rank rank battle is held safely, and the battle with Tamakoma Second, Katori Unit, and Kakizaki Unit begins. In the rank match between Katori's team, which builds its battle situation around a scorer ace like Tamakoma Second, and Kakizaki's team, which is centered around all-rounders, Kuga and Katori clash from the beginning. However, Kakizaki's team also responds and starts to move. Kuga guides Katori close to Osamu, and the two of them attack Katori together. Katori tries to deal with the annoying Osamu first, but...
Episode 5②
Osamu, who was the first to be targeted in the previous episode and was eliminated, was lying in wait, setting a trap with the wire trap trigger ``Spider'' taught to him by Kitora. Using wire traps to trick Katori's team, Tamakoma Second gains an advantage in the match. Katori's team retreats temporarily and is pursued by Kakizaki's team, but they take advantage of Tamakoma Second's desire to gain points and pincer Kakizaki's team. After that, each team gathers together and each waits for the right moment to compete.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 6 Will
Kakizaki and Katori units target each other and try to lure out Tamakoma Second, but Chika's Ibis sniper makes it difficult, and Katori and Kakizaki units work together to sneak through Tamakoma Second's traps and target Chika, but Kuga and Osamu stand in their way. Kuga hits Kakizaki and Osamu hits Katori. Kuga uses the mobility of the wire and Chika's support to maneuver well, and Chika's red bullet hits Kakizaki's Tomoe. Kuga defeats Tomoe as it is, and the situation on the battlefield changes dramatically.
Episode 6②
On the other hand, Osamu is unable to defeat Katori's team, but Katori's team falls into a different wire trap from the one Osamu used, and succeeds in cutting off the mobility of ace Katori. From there, Katori's team is unable to attack. On the other hand, Teruya of Kakizaki's team suggests to Kakizaki that they go alone to get Chika. Kakizaki is forced to hold back Kuga alone, but he is captured and defeated by Kuga due to the wire trap and the superiority of damage he has had up until now. However, Kakizaki also shows his determination and succeeds in inflicting great damage on Kuga.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 7 Battle
As the battle situation changed, Katori's team tried to hold down Osamu. Wakamura and Miura attacked from behind, but were blocked by Osamu's spider, and Wakamura made an emergency escape. Kuga joined them and Miura came to support them, but Kuga and Osamu worked together to help Miura, and he also made an emergency escape. The battle situation was leaning heavily towards Tamakoma Second. Katori could not hide his irritation at the unfavorable situation and the fact that Tamakoma Second was aiming to become an expeditionary force. Katori was childhood friends with operator Hana Somei. Katori barely escaped the attack by the Neighbors and his family was safe, but Hana's parents were sacrificed.
Episode 7②
Meanwhile, Chika and Teruya also clash. Teruya guards his Red Bullet with building debris and approaches Chika, but is unable to move due to Chika's Red Bullet + Hound. However, Teruya also kills Chika with a shot that tracks him from behind. Teruya chooses an emergency escape, and it is a draw. All that remains are Kuga, Osamu, and Katori. Katori uses Grasshopper to train Kuga, but the real target is Osamu. He takes advantage of Osamu's wire and defeats him with acrobatic moves, but Kuga kills Katori, who is caught in the spider that Osamu set up as he dies, and Tamakoma Second wins.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 8 Negotiations
The result is a crushing victory for Tamakoma Second. Osamu's wire tactics take full advantage of Kuga and Chika's advantages, and Tamakoma dominates the game from start to finish. In the end, only a few people, such as Mitsuru Tokieda and Hughes, were able to predict the trick of the wire trap that Osamu used. The trick of the wire trap was relatively simple, and in addition to the conspicuous red and inconspicuous gray, five other types of wires were used with adjusted color intensity.
Episode 8②
Although they were able to advance in the ranking battle with an advantage this time, Tamakoma Second had a weakness that would end immediately if their ace, Kuga, was taken. Seeing this, Hughes requested to join Tamakoma Second on the condition that he accompany them to Aftokrator. However, he needed to convince the upper echelons. Captain Mikumo and Hughes head off to negotiate with the higher-ups.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 9 Captain
Osamu presents Kido and the higher-ups with the benefit of allowing Hughes to join the corps and accompany them to Aftokrator, that he will be their guide on the journey to Aftokrator. However, Commander Kido adds the condition that Chika will accompany him as well. Chika's abundant amount of trion was to give them an advantage on the expedition. However, with Chika agreeing to accompany them, Osamu and the others as a team cannot afford to lose.
Episode 9②
Since Hughes started from C-class, he was unable to participate in the rank battle of ROUND6, and his opponents were the current 3rd-place Ikoma Squad and the 5th-place Ouji Squad. Among the Ikoma Squad, which has two attackers, one archer, and one sniper, Ikoma, who uses the arc moon, and Oki, the sniper, are presences to watch out for, while the 5th-place Ouji Squad is made up of one attacker and two archers, and the unconventional attacker Ouji is a presence to watch out for. Osamu and his team were required to win by earning as many points as possible in order to win the top two slots.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 10 Top
The negotiations between Osamu and Commander Kido were a crossroads of their intentions. Commander Kido's original purpose was to borrow Chika. However, neither of them spoke about how they would treat Hughes after arriving at Aftokrator. Thus begins the rank battle. Oji's team chooses City A and plans to target Osamu first. When the battle begins, Oji's team moves to find out where Osamu is. Kuga moves while disguising his position, but Oji overlooks him and Osamu, who is in the south, is the focus of attention.
Episode 10②
Osamu is targeted by Kashio of the Oji Squad and Minamizawa of the Ikoma Squad, but he deals with it by revealing his location and making them clash with each other. However, he is still in a difficult situation and moves to the relatively safe west. Kashio struggles with the wires stretched by Osamu and is wounded by Minamizawa, but he works with Kurauchi to kill Minamizawa who has been pursuing him. After that, he relentlessly attacks Osamu, but then Kuga and Chika appear and seriously wound Kashio, and he succeeds in firing a red bullet at Kurauchi.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 11 The Strong
While Kuga, Ouji Squad, and Ikoma Squad are engaged in a three-way offensive and defensive battle, Kuga takes advantage of the confusion to kill Kurauchi, who is being targeted by Ouji Squad, and Ouji and Kashio of Ouji Squad split up to target the floating pieces. Kuga engages in an offensive and defensive battle with Ikoma Squad. Kashio aims for Amatori, but Osamu, who has joined up with Chika's bluff, works together to defeat Kashio. However, Oji, who was supposed to be aiming for Oki, confronts Osamu and Chika, and Ikoma Squad, along with sniper Oki, begins to take down Kuga.
Episode 11②
Osamu is defeated by Oji's pursuit, and Chika is also in a desperate situation, but Chika uses a normal bullet hound to explode the ground, scattering Oji and succeeding in escaping into the wire area. Kuga uses the wire to his advantage, but Ikoma Squad also fights back by keeping their distance. Kuga uses Grasshopper to blow up debris, creating an opening for Mizukami, but Oji launches a surprise attack and defeats Mizukami. Thus, Kuga, Ikoma, and Oji face off, and Ikoma's Senkuu Kokugetsu cuts off Oji's leg.
World Trigger 2nd Episode 12 Newcomer
Seeing that Chika is unable to support due to Oki's sniping, Oji steps into the wire area first, and Ikoma cuts the wire along with the house with Senkuu Kokugetsu. Oji takes advantage of the destruction to attack Kuga, but is knocked down by Kuga's Grasshopper ricochet. However, as he dies, he is hit by a ball left behind by Oji, and Kuga also takes heavy damage. The next move by Tamakoma's second hand is to capture Oki in a desperate sniper battle, and Kuga takes advantage of the opening to kill Oki. However, Kuga is also defeated by Ikoma's Senkuu Kokugetsu. Chika chooses to make an emergency escape.
Episode 12②
Ikoma Squad gains survival points, but the final result is Tamakoma Second wins with 4 points, Ouji Squad wins with 3 points, and Ikoma Squad wins with 3 points. While Tamakoma Second barely wins, Hughes easily earns enough points to attend the provisional enlistment ceremony and be promoted to B-class, and is promoted to B-class.
【World Trigger 3rd】Summary of Episodes from Season 2
I've summarized the plot of Season 2 of "World Trigger"!
