Ah man. I do not want it to be over. I want it to continue. Now I am so wanting to go into the manga again. The B Rank Wars is over. Now I must wait for a long time. I hope the voice will still be around even after more years pass by. I am so going to miss this series in anime format so much.

"We win."

Ah, to see it animated at last, so nice, so cathartic. Whelp, I guess that wraps up another glorious season of the criminally overlooked and underrated masterpiece that is World Trigger. As a manga reader who knows when we'll see a 4th season? Considering the subject matter involved in the current arc in addition to the monthly release schedule of chapters and Ashihara-sensei's health it could be years. I dunno if I'll even be around to see it, but I hope I am. And I hope we get to see all of the story told and adapted. 8/10

It would be great if WT were a long-running series, with weekly episodes ♡ I just can't get enough! Now we will have to wait a long time to see it animated again: the manga is in a very interesting phase but Ashihara-sensei's health forces him to take frequent breaks and the material is too little to be adapted quickly. I will wait patiently, hoping that Ashihara-sensei can complete his splendid work.
In the meantime, a nice rewatch is always very enjoyable!

One of the best anime out there. The first season shone due to it's amazing and intense arc (neighbour raid arc) and second and third season shone with intense matches, and introduction of new characters along with the high improvement of animation.

As soon as there is enough source material, there will be a season 4, though it might take 2-3 years or more.

Sweet finale, this! Tamakoma-2 were obviously going to be the victors but the real fun lied in the manner in which they'd achieve that. And in that regard, it was certainly worth the hype.

Chika didn't go for a killer bullet at first but I'd a feeling the next would be otherwise and it did turn out to be just that, luckily. Hyuse's encouragement in the background definitely livened things up a bit there. Osamu's hound ended up doing the telling, just as Kuga warned. I suppose Ninomiya-san kind of underestimated Osamu but it was nice to see that Kuga's lie detector earlier did not get an outright response as such.

All in all, this last battle has been fantastic! Toei Animation stepping up on the animation front made it all the more intriguing. They just know their timing, lol. And as always, the commentary to back up the action was spot on. If there's one thing I would've liked more, it's a more complete finale. For some reason, it didn't feel like the close of a season. With the "To be continued..." remark in the end though, I can't help but expect more...

Going to settle with an 8/10 for this. It's been the most engaging season for me and I can't wait for more!

Last two episodes were really great, happy with how they came out.
Finally Osamu came in clutch with a new move, I hope he will grow stronger as the story proceeds.

Now we wait for the 4th season and I hope we wont have to wait as long as we did for the 2nd season lmao.

Great season, World Trigger is such a gem. Loved season 1, but season 2 and 3 were such a leap in quality. Will miss it for sure. I'm not up-to-date with the manga at all. So is there not enough material for another season?

Finally! Tamakoma-2 gets the golden ticket for their away mission that they have worked so hard for. One step closer to look for the missing person(s) that Osamu and Chika were looking for.

Loved the character development and strategies that occurred during this season. Hopefully Chika can snipe like a pro and Osamu can came up with even better strategies in the future. Can't wai1

She can't bail out with him so close.
Her shield can still break if he shoots her enough.
Her team already got what they wanted; they're now ranked #2 and this is the final match so no rank changes will affect them.

"To Be Continued..." I really hope it does continue, even if it takes a few years for the manga to have enough material for another season.

So Tamakoma really went beyond all expectations in this fight and really outthought Ninomiya every step of the way. Having Chika hide her ability to shoot fatal shots until the last minute and Mikumo hiding his tracking hound until the last minute. It was all planned beuatifully. They deserved the win and hopefully their path forward to the away mission will work out as well.

What an intense and awesome ending for the Rank Wars arc. The final moments of this match are one of the heights of the series and Osamu's concealed Hound shows the unique growth of his character; he isn't a generic shounen MC who defeats his opponents with random power-ups and asspulls, instead he has to use creative tactics and unconventional methods to lead, support, and contribute to his squad in his own way, making up for his weaknesses.

Chika's regular bullet and character development was nice to see as well, even though a part of her was still hesitating earlier in the match, she was finally able to overcome her fears to save one of her teammates from a situation that could cause their death in a real battlefield.

World Trigger is a well written and great series that avoids the stupidity and failures of the typical battle shounen, with characters that behave like normal human beings instead of lunatics or walking tropes, a power system that has a lot of depth and established rules that aren't contradicted for the sake of the main characters, and battles that are based on teamwork and tactics, with Gunners/Shooters, Attackers, and Snipers each having their own role to play in a squad's planning and synergy, utilizing different loadouts and fighting styles to their advantage, while Operators work outside of combat to support their squad as a whole.

These last two seasons have been a huge improvement in terms of animation and pacing as well, avoiding the problems that S1 had in this regard.

There are still some personal issues that I have with it, but this series has managed to be something special with its beautifully executed narrative, and stands as one of my favorites in the medium.

The character development she went through those two season was truly a sight to behold.
World Trigger is so damn underrated I can't even put it into words!
I want 4th season! I want it now!

At least we had "To be continued" at the end, so there's that, but I just can't wait.

good replies folks, thanks for your input! that's alot of ideas i didn't think of! ;) i won't go and quote/name tag you all for the thanks. :D

oh, i stuck all that in for spoilers because, well, spoilers! :> just because an episode has aired on one pirate site doesn't mean it's out there for everybody to see just yet. i know i watched this ep on one site and the other one i regularly use didn't have it.

so JIC i covered it up to protect those who go scrolling through comments ON that episode before they had the chance to watch it. :D

Ahhhh, this is everything I wanted and more! It feels so rewarding to finally, finally see this all animated! The scene where Osamu and Karasuma go “We win.” and everything that happened right after felt just as hyped as when it happened in the manga for me!

It’ll be awhile until we get season four, but I’ll always wait patiently for this series because it’s one of my absolute favorites.

That was one hell of a season conclusion, that was insane! I can't wait for them to announce another season, but for now I guess I'll stick to the "To be continued" that was shown at the end. Hopefully Toei maintains the single/split cour in order to maintain quality.

For the love of everything that is good, Don't ever think of wanting this as a long running series again, this works better as a single/split cour format, as it makes this anime have better animation overall and better paced, there's also not enough material to keep a long running series, they would have to make more filler.

This season started off a bit slow but ended up on a fantastic note. Another battle worth waiting for even with the delay.

By to be continued, I assume there will be more episodes in the future but obviously, they're not ready to announce seaosn 4 yet. Hopefully someday. 7/10 for me.

Of course Tamakoma-2 had to win the match, but it was great for a final, especially regarding Osamu and Chika for their development throughout the season, the animation was also impressive these recent episodes, now I'm waiting for the next season but I'm not disappointed at all by World Trigger recently.

Got goosebumped again when Osamu pulled his 900 IQ move, that shit was so satisfying after how long its been since his loss so many matches ago. Perfectly adapted and just as satifying if not more than the manga.

These past 2 seasons have been a delight, the only thing I hate about them is it just makes me realize how much more popular the series could of been if it had a similar treatment from the beginning and how good some stuff in the invasions arc and early rank wars could have been.

In the end Tamakoma-2 won and got their second place. Chika did great at the end there. Their winning shot was unpredictable too with Osamu's hound. Ninomiya got done in by Osamu at the end.

This was yet again a slow season but the last few episodes picked up the pace. The actions were good and so was the animation. There aren't many chapters left to adapt so s4 will have to wait for a few years but looking forward to it.

Gathering in one place where you can be seen without any covering from afar seems absurd, since Chika has the super power to crush everything including buildings and shields in a bombardment.

It is also unlikely to send all the team members who are working as Ninomiya's shields to Chika. It seems a forced plot to impose him a weak point.

That being said, I'm looking forward to the next season.

I'm pleasantly surprised that so many people love World Trigger. These last two seasons really gave the people a lot to look forward to.

A special shout out to Akihiro Ota, who drew most of episode 13 and probably most of this episode as well. This guy definitely made January into something special for anime watchers.

This season gets a 9 out of 10 from me. It's definitely not season 2 level for me, but the rank 8 match more than made for the rest of the season, just as I knew it would.

Hopefully, Shueisha and Toei are soaking in all the love WorTri is receiving so that when there are enough chapters to make a great season, the wait won't be as long. Also Diasuke Asihara, take lots of breaks and be as healthy as possible. We are all waiting on those new manga chapters to see what happens next.
