The official website of the World Trigger television anime revealed the main staff and a teaser visual (pictured) for the new anime season on Thursday.
Morio Hatano (Dragon Ball Super, Saint Seiya Omega) is serving as the series director at Toei Animation, replacing Mitsuru Hongou and Kouji Ogawa. Returning staff include scriptwriter Hiroyuki Yoshino (Heavy Object, Shuumatsu no Izetta), character designer Toshihisa Kaiya (Honzuki no Gekokujou, Haikyuu!! chief animation director), and music composer Kenji Kawai (Mob Psycho 100, No Guns Life).
World Trigger adapts Daisuke Ashihara's sci-fi battle action manga, which began in Weekly Shounen Jump in February 2013. The manga resumed after a nearly two-year hiatus in October 2018 and moved to Jump SQ. in December that year. Shueisha shipped the 21th volume on December 4 last year.
The first television anime by Toei Animation began airing in Fall 2014. The anime was originally listed for 50 episodes, but was later extended to 73 episodes. Toei later produced an English dub with Canada-based company Ocean Production in July 2015.
VIZ Media licensed the manga in English in 2014 and now publishes the manga simultaneously with the Japanese release through their new Shounen Jump platform. The 19th volume shipped in October 2019, with the 20th volume scheduled for an April 7 release.
