World Trigger excels at delivering RPG-style world-building and deeply strategic combat where every move is explained, making it far more engaging for tactics fans than typical shounen fare. The party dynamic—tank Osamu, mage Chika, overpowered carry Kuga—refreshingly sidelines solo heroics in fa...

Although I enjoyed this anime, it was also a terrible disappointment at the same time. The anime clearly had designs on joining the ranks of Naruto, One Piece, Fairy Tail, etc... as a long running anime, and 73 episodes is not a bad run. But, poor pacing, a BRUTAL and ill-timed filler arc that de...

When world trigger first came out a lot of people couldn't get into it because of the animation style. I even dropped it at one point for that reason. I picked it back up though because a friend recommended it to me and I am glad I did. Almost all the characters feel fledged out with their own pe...

World Trigger’s first season excels by turning every fight into a cerebral chess match and layering meticulous world-building that drip-feeds its rules at the perfect pace. Occasional animation hiccups and a handful of filler episodes momentarily sap momentum, but they’re small prices for a show ...

World Trigger remains brilliantly fresh a decade on, turning a generic alien-invasion setup into gripping television through well-written, deeply developed characters and above-average visuals that deliver irresistible cliffhangers. The only real let-downs are merely “alright” music and an inhere...

okay so, before watching this anime i always said i wanted to see a mc who doesnt have some secret god-like powers or even if he's not strong at all to not have a crazy enough personality to be able to match or fit in with everybody but oh boy... after i watched this anime i understood why every ...

Summary: This show is really good for just having something on the TV while you work or when you can't stay awake because you're 32 and one benadryl takes you out for half a day now. The show strikes a weird mix, it's like Gintama but not as funny, Dai Guard but not as charming, and idk what othe...

Common people, it does start a bit slow and yes the animation could be better but still! We don't have a hero that is actually weak without dumb power up anywhere else, we don't have an anime that actually took the time to tell it's story in a very long time (it seems like forever really). The pl...

While the show offers some entertainment value, it is dragged down by characters that stick to tired tropes and an unprecedented amount of forced, redundant exposition that pads scenes and repeats dialogue. Roughly 30% of the runtime feels superfluous, making the series best suited for younger vi...

World Trigger earns a solid 7 for its deep, well-planned universe and electrifying rank-war and invasion battles that deliver non-stop thrills. While the animation is weak and the show suffers from tedious repetition, over-explanation, and pointless filler, the realistic team dynamics and refresh...

A tactically grounded shounen that stands out by making its protagonist genuinely weak and unchosen, keeping the story engaging and the cast well-rounded at a brisk pace. The ride is marred by a lengthy filler arc that feels like a chore, rough early art, and occasionally confusing look-alike sid...

World Trigger seems like one of those anime that requires you to be a fan of the manga in order to appreciate it. When I first heard of this anime, it was getting terrible reviews for its languid pacing and mediocre artistry. Mind you, this was 10 episodes in. About around episode 50 – when I che...

The studio cheaped out on this one, good thing the mangaka poured out his soul to compensate. This thing has more than 30 characters! 30! And all of them feel like people. Story: Premise is simple, there are other worlds that uses a technology called "trigger". Just imagine it as energy that can ...

I'll keep it short, the show has a very interesting world, its a blast to follow the main characters and all the frequent side characters, and you have to adore Raijinmaru. But... Out of the 70+ episodes, maybe a solid 30 full episodes could be filled with the recaps, and unnecessary prolonged sc...

The series started off great, but after the Large-Scale Invasion Arc, it went downhill. The world(s) building was great and had potential, but after the Invasion arc they focused on some pool and beach episodes, and Ranking Wars. During the Ranking Wars, there was explanations on strategies from ...

Never seen another anime give their jobbers so much respect. You feel like everyone is a master of their craft: they fight well and employ traps and strategy. It's a bit like deathnote except every other character is an L and Kira and they use guns and swords. There's some illogical stuff like th...

I love World Trigger. I really do. But sadly it's far away from being perfect in any way really. It's sad becuase while I had a blast watching it most of the time, there are still so many things that are just wrong and bad about World Trigger so that you end up watching it for pretty much one thi...

World Trigger has annoying plot progression. Every, and I mean EVERY arc will abide to that age-old rule of all shitty shounens, "every next episode until climax covers less and less time in the story". MC is an absolute, painful to watch weakling at the beginning, is a shameless weakling thoroug...

World Trigger is one of those anime that are focused on character development and plot. I think this was a fair anime, but it could've been better in many ways. For instance, the plot was a bit rushed. There were times where I got lost and didn't fully understand what was happening in the story. ...

I’m not embarrassed to say that some pretty good anime gets past my radar even when the poster invites a curiosity that is asking me to just give it a gander. It took a positive reception of the second season for World Trigger to really give this anime a chance and after watching season 1, I thin...
