Think I'm going to try out some of the new series for the fall, that filler episode just wasn't for me.
The world is triggered…

I quite enjoyed the first episode of this filler arc. A lot of good fan-service like Jin and Tachikawa teaming up with some pretty good animation. And so far it doesn't seem out of place.
With the new OP, with a glimpse of B-01 and B-02, I think they may alternate filler arcs and canon arcs for a while. I expect to at least see the next match animated after the current filler arc.
Maybe if only one vassal country attacks in the manga, they will do a filler arc in which the other one attacks as well.About the manga, I wonder if the second invasion will happen before the next match.
It seems likely that Hyuse will do something heroic for Border in that invasion, that will allow him to join Tamakoma-2.
It should be something so big that it will prove without a doubt that he will not betray them when the expedition happens.
I also think that Osamu will do something impressive for him during that invasion. Otherwise, I can't see him accepting Osamu as his captain realistically. -
@They:

Okay. Although I thought this first episode of the filler arc was done far more nicely than the first episode of the canon arc. Seriously, rewatch first episode then the 49th and there is such a huge difference in quality between them! No CG, more fully animated battle scenes, no weird music, no long staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaare shots and so on!
Looks like WT's first season was good enough for Toei to not only give it a full filler arc but also to increase its budget. Hopefully they increased it enough that they can keep up this kind of quality for the comign episodes as well.I quite enjoyed the first episode of this filler arc.

Then I wouldn't had to read so many mean comments about how terrible WT anime gonna be…
Man, I so can't wait to hear Kageura and his teammates voices! <3
It's crazy how much I and other readers like teams we hardly know much about. Team Nasu got tons of fans and we really don't got much on them, same for Kageura and his "goofy" team and Ninomiya and his stylish team. Like, I dunno, I don't know much about their dreams, hopes, fears, past, background story or other relationships with other people than their team, but they are just so likeable I can't help but like it whenever they show up in the story.About your idea though, we got some early spoilers, check them out, you might have been right after all:
! Still UNCONFIRMED. Seems legit though.
! Kageura's team war room:- Yuzuru has Chika practice with lead bullet + lightning. Lead bullets have low speed and low distance, but sniper weapons increases range in general and Lightning in particular increases bullet speed (compared to eglet, which increases range, and ibis, which increases power).
- Using this combo means using 2 weapons, so bagworm can't be used. Since a sniper gets caught after a shot anyway, it's not that bad.
- Hatohara came up with this combination, but her trion amount is not big enough to allow her to use this combo in real battles. Chika is another story.
- Izuho teases Yuzuru about him liking Chika. He refutes the idea but blushes. Yuzuru thinks inside that he doesn't want Chika to get crushed with the feeling of uselessness like Hatohara.
! Lab:
- Aftokrator has 4 major families and many minor families. Family power is based on how many trigger users it has. Hyerin is the head of one major family.
- Failing to procure a new god, Hyerin will offer someone from families under him. In general, offering subordinate with high trion will weaken the family, so it's not favorable, but the family that does that gets a lot of influence.
- From the start, Hyerin was pessimistic that he could find someone with big enough trion to become mother trigger, since someone like that is rare. Even before coming to Mideen, he had several plans. It would have been great if they could have captured someone with a lot of trion in Mideen. Now that they failed, Hyerin would offer the head of Hyuse's family as a god candidate.
- Hyuse's family is a minor family under Hyerin's. Hyuse is loyal to his family head.
Chika development and Aftokrator information deluxe - I like it, I like it a alot!!! <3

the Chinese version is out

Finally got around to watching the filler episode as well. I liked seeing new trion soldier models, and there was some nice character interaction as well. I'm going to wait for everything to unravel a bit more because the neighbour characters that were introduced seem a little… bland to me, but like I said we haven't gotten any information on their motives and so on yet. At least the fighting style of the neighbour red head seems interesting from what I've seen.

Yeah, the first episode of the new arc was great. Too bad the next one took a nosedive in quality terms although I still found it enjoyable. Alone to see Osamu destroy a new Trion type all by himself due the change of terrain or to see how Konami keeps getting trolled by Karasuma just to blame Osamu again. And then Osamu sitting at the table wondering what this madness is, eating curry with the enemy. Being Osamu is suffering. xD
the Chinese version is out
Translation is out of it too.
Pretty darn good chapter, half of it Chika growth and the other half juicy Aftokrator information.
Chika will be very useful with this lead bullet which might even fly faster than her usual huge Ibis shots, downside ofc is that she has to show up on the map before shooting but I guess that is a good trade-off if she hits somebody important with such a huge lead pillar in the trion body. Chika upgraded from Landshaping monster to lead bullet monster. xD
Poor Hatohara, looks like she took it hard that she was "useless" for her team in sense of away missions. Glad that Chika won't have to go down that path due her OP trion amount which makes this Lighting+Lead Bullet combo a possibility and something only she can use.
Hope Ninomiya will be her first hit target with this one!!! <3Enedorad (hehe) is becoming more and more moe despite being an ugly catbug thingie with one eye. xD
It's just adorable how his brainscan is acting all so bossy and important yet sits on a cushion and watches Terminator movies. And then his drawing skills with the bound pen to his leg. <3
4 main families with households below them who has lower families below them. And Hyrein plans to become the next King of Aftokrator by offering a god candidate (doubt he is the only one with this ambition though) either a captured one or one of his own clan - Hyuse's master. Now I guess this means Hyuse is from a low family serving a Household and said Household Master has enough trion power to be a good god candidate, if he wants to become such that is. Plus this also will make Hyrein's clan people question their loyalty to their lord given he has no problems to sacrifice one of his retainers for his goals. I guess this is where the marriage between Hyrein and Moira comes in, as her main family will support Hyrein's claim and basically replace his superstrong trion fighter loss with their power to keep him on the throne with Moira as the queen.
I guess this means Enedorad is from Moira's family? She seems to know him and he might have been opposed to support Hyrein to become King. But then again he seems to know an awful lot about Hyrein and his plans and inner clan structure and seems to know Hyuse a lot too, so I dunno.Anyway, this is the best possible way for Border, go in while all Aftokrator clans are busy arguing and backstabbing each other while their god is dieing, get their people and get the hell outta there. Still the problem how to save those people as so many won't fit into their single ship they got so far.
Also we got really early spoilers again:
! Tamakoma HQ:
- Hyuse and Reiji are around. Jin, Chika, and Rindou returns. Osamu and Yuuma will return later.
- Chika wants to show Reiji something, presumably her new trigger combo. They go to training room.
- Rindou goes off to work some more.
- Jin and Hyuse are alone. Jin asks if Hyuse gets used to living here, if he enjoys living here, and if he wants to continue to do so. Jin offers Hyuse rice cracker. Hyuse accepts.
- Hyuse points that Jin is being very obvious. He knows that the vassal states are approaching. Jin is not surprised to hear that.
- Jin says that Hyuse is going to get killed. Hyuse is worthless as hostage and Aftokrator won't want Hyuse to leak information. Border has no obligation to protect a prisoner who has his mouth shut. Aftokrator will definitely come to dispose Hyuse.
- Hyuse is unfazed "… and your point is?"
- Jin tells Hyuse that if he officially cooperates with Border, there will be ways to protect him. And Jin still owes Hyuse one request.
! On the way home:
- Osamu is thinking how to manipulate Hyuse.
- They meet Kako squad, who are on defense duty. They exchange greetings.
- Kako says that it's a shame they lost. She has expectations on Osamu personal level, because he is similar to her.
- Gate opens, a Mormod comes out.
- Kako takes care of it. Her trion cubes are so small that they are hard to see. But she pinpoints them one by one until she drills (?) rips (?) a hole on the Mormod's eye. Osamu thought that Kako's cubes look like scales of butterflies.
Thanks, p-kun from MAL!
Looks like Osamu might get himself a sexy Mentor, she surely will have far more shooter experience than Karasuma and I like that we get to see more of her. <3

Hope Ninomiya will be her first hit target with this one!!! <3I loved the chika portion of the chapter. its showing that her progression is coming slowly but surely. imagine her and kuga in tandem together? oh man, the speed from kuga and lead restraints will make them a good duo and if osamu can become better plus with his tactics? A squad looking a lot more possible now.

oh man, as i said above, if osamu can get stronger the team will even be more to reckon with and now we see that there are ways around low trion. should have saw it earlier, dont have the power so you need precision. i like were this is going. can't way to see it.
-
Chika's weakness isn't going to be fixed yet but just worked around for now. I'll assume it'll just be like this when she is fighting agents. Maybe if she finds herself in actual danger in the next arc she'll fire the Ibis against a humanoid neighbor.
I like the filler anime arc so far but it's unfortunate how Chika got shafted so early. Maybe it was intentional given her highlighted weakness in the manga so the arc wouldn't contradict anything.

Imagine Hyuse as a gunner with Viper and Asteroid in that team. <3
Doubt he can get strong enough soon enough, it's why he needs a 4th team member who can also bring in lots of experience and hyuse must have tons of experience and training as a trion soldier of Aftokrator.

Yeah, but for now I am glad that she upped her offensive power as her Ibis got huge damage but as seen in the game before people can dodge it within seconds once alarmed. This Lighting + Lead bullet is both faster and so new that she surely will get some hits with this combo.
Yeah, Chika was reduced to a trion battery. Though it makes sense as this way her training is cut short, she cannot grow too strong in that week and what happens will be seen in the top B tier battle. Same with Osamu who cannot train his stamina as much as planned.

any summary to help me out? please and thankyou :-)

Are Xeno and Lilith canon or filler? Xeno is especially annoying…I can't say I'm fond of Lilith in anyway either. I guess it's nice she's overly friendly to make up for Xeno having no social skills.
One other thing I never understood about this series is why the theme song is in the middle of the episode. It's so odd. :wassat:

Yeah, ever since Ashihara got that health issue with his neck and spin, I think it was an accident of some sort, Jump decieded to "give him off a week" every month so that they can keep publishing his work without having it go to hiatus. Plus he doesn#t really take off a week work, he just works less hours per day but still draws and writes every day in the week.
I find that pretty admirable given there are mangakas who take weeks off because they were too lazy to finish off a chapter properlyany summary to help me out? please and thankyou :-)
I got ya something even better man. Read it here. ;)

They are filler. Xeno is annoying, full of himself, prideful, arrogant, overconfident, vulnerable. Given that he treats his trion soldiers as friends means this guy really had a lonely childhood, might have been pretty sad to grow up like him. And as he runs away from his own people I can see why he has trust issues with strangers from other nations, in this case Earth.
Lilith… I think she is totally a Trion soldier.
Just think of it, she isn't cold despite wearing such a skimpy outfit just like Xeno, Xeno doesn't treat her like a princess (no sama) so the whole "Xeno and princess Lilith fleed from their nation due a rebellion/love story" theories don't have that much ground anymore and most importantly that white sadist autonomous Trion Soldier of this Gieve guy said that it is a shame they had to bring "it" back alive.
Given what we heard about Xeno's engineer genius and his weirdo personality (even in neighbor terms) of treating Trion soldiers as friends and family, I think Xeno created the first fully humanoid looking and behaving Trion Soldier mostly because he felt so lonely and wanted a "real" friend/family. Obviously the leaders of his nation realized the potential of Trion soldiers looking and acting like humans to be send into war, they can become infiltrators, saboteurs, assassins or just elite soldiers send to the frontline and their enemies would not be wiser that those are actually trion soldiers and not human trigger holders. Xeno ofc does not want Lilith to be treated that way and took her with him to escape to somewhere else build up a happy life. And obviously again Egrant does not want that to happen at all.
About the theme song, it is usually in or near the middle of the episode because WT has no ending song, a routine which seems to become used quite a bit in Toei's recent animes from what I gathered. Less songs, less bands to pay money for, more time for screening or in this case to be used for the "World Trigger fact box" ending.^^

The anime airs to early in the morning(6:30 a.m) and so the company decided that it would be a good idea to put the theme song later, I guess. I also believe this is the first time they are doing that to a series(Matsutaro didn't had that nor Saint Seiya Omega. And they are anime from that same timeslot), and in the beginning of World Trigger series they did a ton of experimentation about where to place it.
-
My first impression about those new neighbours is that they will turn against Aftorkrator and help Border with their future expedition. Something about their design scream "good guys" to me.
Plus, I don't see a repeat of the previous invasion with the enemies being forced to retreat or being captured.
Looking forward to seeing their new triggers and trion soldiers.Anyway, I'm going back to playing Smash Borders while waiting for the next chapter in 2 weeks (hopefully, the Aftorkrator characters that were teased at the end of episode 20 will be added soon).
-
Well, looks like Lilith might not be a Trion soldier android but more like a Trion Vampire? Is that a thing now? I mean, I wanted to see more "alien" like neighbors all the time instead of humans with horns and humans with no horns, but a vampire? Well, maybe she's not a vampire after all and she and Xeno were just making out traumatising the watching Chika. xD

Yeah, I wonder what that last scene is all about? At first I thought they were making out, too, but it really does look like Lilith needs to gain Trion the "sucky way"^^ I wonder how this is gonna be explained…
-
Then what's the point of that thing on Chika if she's a trion vampire?
-
Then what's the point of that thing on Chika if she's a trion vampire?
Well I suppose it absorbs Trion and gives it to Xeno, who then lets Lilith suck it out of him. Or something like that because I honestly don't remember whether it actually does absorb Trion or is just a potential kill device, turning Chika into a hostage.
-
This arc took quite the turn. If it weren't for the lame villain, this filler would be officially interesting
-
Plus, I don't see a repeat of the previous invasion with the enemies being forced to retreat ou being captured.
Looking forward to seeing their new triggers and trion soldiers.I'm looking forward to seeing how the Master-class characters fair against these guys.
If A-rank Jin > Hyuse
yet A-ranks Midorikawa/Yoneya/Izumi/Azuma/Arafune + Several B-ranks = Ramanvein,It'll be good to know where Borders A-rank agents currently stand.
Would be good if we got to see the unrevealed members of the squads A-02/A-04/A-06 and all of A-08.I don't want this story to be a copy of Naruto where the rank exams are interrupted by an invasion (Hidden Sand/Hidden Sound invade the Hidden Leaf during Gaara VS Sasuke) and then the rank exams are never actually concluded.
-
where is this ?
The anime of Wt its new arc, last episode where Chika sees Lilith embracing and moving her mouth onto Xeno's neck in the dark.
Yeah, I wonder what that last scene is all about? At first I thought they were making out, too, but it really does look like Lilith needs to gain Trion the "sucky way"^^ I wonder how this is gonna be explained…
"Making out"
"Toei"
"in a 6 am anime show for kids"
Yeah, we rather gonna see Trion body heads roll before we seee any big making outs in WT. xDThen what's the point of that thing on Chika if she's a trion vampire?
That one is not for Lilith but for Xeno and his neighbor ship they need to repair and fuel with Trion for their next trip to escape their nations hitmen.
I'm looking forward to seeing how the Master-class characters fair against these guys.

Well, raw's out and we hear a lot more about the new guys and their plans as well, read it here:

http://www.ishuhui.com/archives/374914
Also english translation out here done by Karu08, just scroll down till you hit his comment with the blue words: http://forums.mangafox.me/threads/453983-Spoilers-thread/page122Anyway, looks like the new invadors gonna play the saboteur role, entirely different from Aftokrator back then who tried to overpower Border and kidnap people. Galopoula captain and his soldiers "win" if they succeed to infiltrate Border base and destroy important stuff in there, like lets for say the sole trion ship we saw Border own so far. They don't need to fight, they need to not be found and will most likely run away when discovered and buy their undiscovered comrades time. It really will be a different kind of battle than the large scale invasion was like.
And then Ashihara dropped a big bomb at the end about Kitora!!!
Although in hindsight he gave us tons of hints about her since way back then at the start of the first dozens chapters! Like a lot of actions or words said by Kitora make way more sense now, same with her seeing Osamu as a "rival" despite their rank difference.If Kitora gonna give Osamu some teaching lessons I see a lot of KitoraxOsamu fans becoming very happy. xD
-
So now that we know of the threat they actually pose, I'm curious to which teams will be sent up as "the starting line-up" or so to speak.
I imagine A-01 all the way to A-08 should all be in action for the neighbors surely. When Kazama mentioned something about alerting the select B-rank squads that will be taking part in the mission which squads do you think they'll be?
My safest bet is Ninomiya's B-01.Kakizaki Unit who are currently B-13 are probably going to get trashed by Mikumo Unit. Yuma/Chika threat is enough for a team that can't beat Suzunari Daiichi. Especially now Chika can use that new method she developed with Ema. I'm just glad that this means the rank wars will definitely continue even after this invasion arc.
-
Aaah the latest two chapters get me excited for WT again after the mediocre (so far) filler in the anime somewhat dampened my excitement for it. Mikumo and co. are improving their combat skills, Jin is up to some more shenanigans aka a special mission and a new neighbour nation is invading, this time relying on stealth to achieve their goal of sabotaging Border HQ. Hyuse is scheming something as well and we even get confirmation for a continuation of rank wars after the invasion, even getting a glimpse on one of the upcoming squads Tamakoma-02 will have to face.
A nice touch is Galopoula not blindy following Aftokrator's orders, despite being a vasall nation, but rather planning to achieve their mission to their own advantage without angering Aftokrator. It was also nice to see that they seem to respect Border for having beat the 4 black triggers from Aftokrator, so this time Border won't have the advantage of being underestimated by their enemy. It will be awesome to see some guerilla tactics and advanced stealth triggers employed by neighbours and I think Border will be under pressure at first simply because they can't be sure of their exact goal and probably don't have as much experience with neighbour stealth operations.

Since the Galo warriors attack at night I dunno if all A teams are active right now at Border. I assume Kazma and Kako as well as the Arashiyama squad will be the most prominent A teams in this arc as they are right now in HQ whereas the others might be at home, making dinner, watching TV, playing games or going to bed. And since Galo got lots of distraction Trion soldiers those A agents will get called to the frontline to destroy said Trion soldiers before they get outta the savezone while the Galos enter HQ to destroy their ship or labs or damage them some other ways.
Ninomiya and Kageura might also play a big part in this "spy/saboteur war". We haven't seen anything of them in the Aftokrator invasion so it makes sense if Ashihara would try to show their skills off some more in this arc besides the B rank wars.

I see the anime mostly as an advertisement for the much better manga. xD
And it seems to do well so given Toei gave it a full filler season instead to give it a rest for a year or so while WT's sales are increasing this year. That Border game also got downloaded million times by now so it seems to be well-liked in Japan despite its "two years till you are considered average" MC. XDTo me it looks like Galo is going on this mission without a single Black Trigger, expect if that Helmet guy/girl is a BT which is made for information gathering and control and the likes. They are clearly the Underdogs in this arc so I like how Ashihara is giving them a mind of their own and not make them mindless drones of their masters. Make them feel more alive and human, looking out for their own advantage. Makes me even kinda want to cheer for them to succeed. ^^
Jin should sooner or later see a possible future where somebody has to fight the Galo soldiers so he might be able to tell the locations where the Galos are heading to. That he hasn#t seen any yet either means he keeps them secret or that the Galos are good enough to stay undetected till its too late and Jin can only foresee them as like a five minute look into the future.
In a couple days the new raw comes out, I hope then the Galos are already on their way to commence their attack. -
whats up with world trigger? we've only gotten like 2 chapters in 5 weeks?
-
The mangaka has a back injury so usually takes at least 1 break every month. We'll be getting a new chapter this week but unfortunately it looks like next week it'll be off again.
-
Is anyone still watching the anime? Is this filler arc any good?
-
I like the filler arc, Xeno is still really annoying but the main bad guy seems pretty interesting. I really like how they're using a lot of the border agents and that they're not just focusing solely on Tamakoma-2. Miwa squad had a really cool episode a couple of weeks ago when a mall complex got taken over by a swarm of spider neighbours soldiers and they had to take them out. It's a fun watch and I'm moderately interested in what's going on.
-
whats up with world trigger? we've only gotten like 2 chapters in 5 weeks?
That's why. And yeah, we got like 2-3 chapters in the past 5 weeks due there not being one but two absents with one new chapter, chapter 123 in-between.
Which Raw is out btw:

And we get 3 new Border characters. Ashihara keeps increasing the Border agent pool with faces and names and extra background stuff about them. xD
Given that he does so despite his broken neck that is quite impressive for him to still hold on onto his version of how WT is supposed to be like.Is anyone still watching the anime? Is this filler arc any good?
Yeah, it's fine.
I mean, last chapter had Konami and Nasu in swimsuits, instant 5/5 for me. XDDD
- Bleach (2 818 926)
- World Trigger (2 735 269)
- Gintama (2 642 690)
- My Hero Academia (2 190 845)
Those are total volume sales of this year, looks like WT sold quite a ton of volumes. Given how only 4 volumes came out this year due his injury this is quite a good number, I suppose. Hope it keeps increasing next year as well. :)
Latest volume's cover, Ninomiya looks just like always (like a Boss!) on it.

You'd think Oda would get in for free. (.-.)

Finally WT returns again! <3
! Awesome humanoid looking trion soldiers which uses TACTICS to advance to Border HQ as inusing shields and phalax formations to minimize their losses! Border using snipers on roof and gunners on the sides to blast the trion soldiers apart. Galo agents using mortar trion shells to fire dog trion soldiers into the ranks of the snipers who only keep standing thanks to Reiji and Arafune but are pushed back from the roof. A chance with the humanoid trion soldier uses TO ENTER THE BASE with some kind of warp door pushing through the thick trion wall. And you know what? They were disguised as humanoid Trion soldiers revealing their true looks inside Border surprising the Border Leaders!!!
! And that's not the only thing!
Hyuse ESCAPES with his trigger!!!
Obviously Jin has planned for that as Hyuse had a key for the safe where his trigger was in but I cannot say for sure if Hyuse will aid Border or if he will aid the Galo saboteurs. This gonna be an interesting fork in the path of the future of this invasion. <3All in all a strong and promising start for this new sabotage arc! <3

Great two chapters. I do hope that Mikumo finds his niche soon though. I mean I love seeing him learn and what have you, but I don't want it to drag on for too much longer. He needs to get some good motivation or maybe ash that will send him to the next level where his other teammates are waiting for him.
-
Mikumo gonna stay "weak" for a long time, but I hope he will fight smarter from now on and put less pressure on himself to "have to get points all by himself".^^

New Raw's out! Read it! Talk about it! Or don't, whatever. :P

I'm really digging World Trigger these last months. As much as I like Osamu and his team, I just love chapters where other teams gets to shine. I don't mind if Tamakoma-2 doesn't do much this arc.

liking the development so far… didnt think the intruders were that strong but curious to see how they fight.

@Miss:

Yeah, I mean it is only 125 chapters but for me it feels like everyone in Ashihara's cast has his/her own importance and isn't "just there to play a role" to be forgotten for the rest of the manga. Like Enedora! YOu'd think that huge evil murderous @sshole would end his short journey there as being betrayed and then suddenly he shows up again as a EnedoraD and is actually damn helpful to provide background infos for Aftokrator! Reminds me a lot of OP in that sense that you think this or that guy used up its importance and is gone for good just to return to leave an impact or have his/her own story going on or suddenly he/she and his/her peers are actually damn important in the arc battle that'sgoing on nearly as much or sometimes even more than most or even all of the main characters. KInda the same how here all MCs are busy in rank wars and the "side characters" are the main defenders in this little (that's to see though if it gonna be little) sabotage arc. <3
In short, Ashihara makes good use of his cast and doesn't use them as tools to show off how awesome his MCs are or forgets about them and their existance entirely in future arcs.liking the development so far… didnt think the intruders were that strong but curious to see how they fight.
Yeah, the Galo soldiers got interesting ways of fighting. Warp gate kunais, mortar warp shells, cooperating Trion soldiers, illusion–triggers, wall-warp-holes, energy rings on the back of their hands, etc. I wonder what they gonna do if one of them gets their combat body destoryed though. In afto we had Moira who save Ranbanein and killed Enodora but here it doen#t look like Galos have such a way to escape else they could have used it to enter instead of this way. And like Shinoda said only 3 agents are little to destroy such an important ship, especially now that there are only 2 left. So they must have something up their sleeve, like a bomb or something like that as well as a quick way out else those 3 gonna have trouble to get out of Border HQ.
Also nice to see the preview for the next chapter up already on yt. Looks like Nasu/Kumagai vs Wei and Miwa/Yoneya vs Koskero will be the main focus in this chapter. :D

Ugh….Did they really add in filler to a filler episode? Yotaru is okay as far a kids go in anime series but long adventures by himself? No thank uou.

Yeah, it was a pointless episode, but at least it was a cute filler. Yotaru had a good uprising by his dad, protects a girl he knows for half a day against a huge trion soldier, keeps getting up to get kicked and beaten up instead of laying down and doesn't cry at all and in the end even gives away his last 100 yen for Cocoa to call her mom. Too bad we wont see anything of Cocoa anymore, she got a cute design and with her father dead she'd have as good a revenge reason to join Border like Miwa. Maybe a reason why her mother left Mikado city, to prevent her daugther from risking her life in a city under constant alien attack.
Also funny how people outside Mikado City treat the whole Border vs Aliens thingie, like it's not really real or something like that or not their concern that part of their land/people is under attack by aliens from another dimension. -
Live translation of Wt 125 here if you wanna read, if not check mangabird out for the raw: https://desustorage.org/a/thread/135349202/#135349202
! Koskero's and some doogies and humanoid trion soldiers fight against Miwa and Yoneya and so far Koskero's only lost a leg while showing some of his interesting equipment, a gel shield which nullifies the sharpness of the trion blades which touch it. Yoneya can get around it by dissolving and recharging his spear trigger though. Reghi still keeps hidden while Borde keeps destroying the Idras more and more at the base.
! Inside Wen holds herself very well against Nasu and Kumagai. She loses a couple dogs but summons more but most importantly was her smokescreen and then using her illusion shape to take on the form of Kumagai. So when Kumagai got shot in the fog by the doggies, Nasu came to her friend's aid only to cover the back of the wrong Kumagai. She manages to escape by only losing an arm though.
! Shinoda worries correctly that the Galo's plan makes no sense and looks more like a suicide run which to us all-knowing readers makes no sense given the Galos have no intention to die for Afto's plans. So how do they plan to destroy the ship and escape from Border's HQ in one piece? Especially with the ship being guarded by hte 4 best figthers of Border: Tachikawa, Kazama, Murakami and ofc Konami who obviously was the 3rd highest ranked melee fighter of Border. And she tells Tachikawa what future Jin foresaw for his friend-rival against those Galo saboteurs. Here's for Tachikawa to show that futures can take many shapes! Don#t get cut in half, Tachikawa!
! At the end Jin wonders who he should help out, inside Border protecting the ship or going out to foresee the other Galo's futures to see where this all is heading. Then he gets another visison (?) and we see Yotrao riding into battle on his mighty warpiggie Rajinmaru. Yotaro so gonna get grounded by his dad for that, I gurantee it. xDI hope we get another popularity poll after this arc. I'm interested to see the rankings after so many new charas got introduced/fleshed out after the first one.^^

Okay, so english is up for ch. 126 and raw and Live TL is up for ch. 127!
http://www.mangamint.com/world-trigger-127
https://desustorage.org/a/thread/136154309/#136154309I really like Keskero's gel shield, pretty interesting ability. And the Galo Vice captain is pretty strong considering against who he is up. Yoneya's scorpion retract attack was pretty sweet, simple but effective. Nasu and Kumagai got more trouble against Wen who is pretty darn good, probably the third strongest of the team. I enjoyed her smokescreen and then turning into Kumagai to lure Nasu closer to her to get an easier attack on her. Hope this kind of deceiving and tricking fight gonna continue in the next chapters. <3
With Kazmama, murakami, Konami adn Tachikawa guarding the ship I really can't see Captain Gatlin and whatshisname destroying the Border ship. Or Gatlin is some real good ace hidden in his trigger which makes him sure he gonna succed AND escape outta Border HQ once their mission is done.As for the new chapter: Yep, Gatling got an ace up his sleeve. And it is a pretty darn awesome one too! :D
-
i think they're going to succeed in disabling the ship. its the perfect opportunity to give tamakoma 2 the opportunity to make the next away mission (which would be the next year). it'll give them time to develop and form another team and even make rank A in a year.

Or Yuuma dies during that year and we later find out that Chika's brother died a month before they finally got to their expedition. :c
While I agree that Osamu and Chika need more time to get real good, they simply don't have that time considering Yuuma could drop dead at any given moment or nobody knows where and what the heck happened to her big bro.@127
Gatlin's ace was Dr. Ocotpus itself but with swordarms! That Galo captain surely will put up a good fight against our top4 attackers guarding the Border ship.
His subordinate's saturn rings backpack weapon is interesting as well, most likely something like a shooter would use, but it seems to be more damaging.I liked how Gatlin wasn't the least concerned when he lost his arm and just went "eh, I wanted to get a gun arm anyway" with Tachikawa being like "Uhm, Kazama, he regrew his limb and it looks even more dangerous than before" and Kazama like a boss "I get his leg next time". XD
Can't wait to see Konami's sweet moves in battle! <3
As for the battle outside, I really liked Kako's bubbly trion bullet forms, I wonder if they are somehow different than normal cube bullets, similar to Ninomiya's pyramid shaped bullets. Skanda looks like something Yuuma would love to use besides grasshopper. Agility build is never a bad build.^^
Inukai really can handle his kouhais well, plays easily with Kuroe-chan leaving Kitora-chan in shock, awe and disappointment that she can't do the same. XD
Also badass sniper entrance is badass and then there is Sarutobi. XDDD
I enjoy how the enemy is the underdog in this sabotage sidearc unlike in the large scale invasion where Border only avoided worse scenarios thanks to Jin's foresight as well as Enedora going crazy in Border HQ and giving away too much info about his trigger. here Galo is outnumbered, in foreign territory, against unknown triggers and yet they still handle this situation pretty darn well and even stand before the ship's hangar.
If the ship really is in there and not hidden away somewhere else that is.^^@128 spoilers
! That cannon! WOha, could have ended the ship right here and there if it were not for Kou and his shield taking some heat of that bullet!
And that thing isn't even a BT! Just like a rocket launcher trigger!
! Konami is awesome! She and Kazama saved Tachikawa from getting owned and she took off one of Gatlin's swordarms! Plus she took down the saturn ring (I really need to learn that guy's name…) height advantage and brought him down to their level.
Also Kou's boomerang raygust throw was pretty cool.
! Gatlin wants this to be finished in ten, at max 15 minutes. In other words before the B rank match with Tamakoma 2 starts. Doubt that gonna happen but let's wait and see.
! Hyuse is ready to move in and meet some Galo elite soldiers yet said soldiers are all hot and bothered by some possible traitor having told Border of their arrival and weaponry. I doubt they gonna look kindly upon the arrival of Hyuse, espeically when he uses his Border trigger.
! And then that takes away his possible last way of escape to his homeworld and might push him closer to pursuit a spot in Tamakoam 2's squad to get into the expedition force. IF, and that is a very big if, IF Border even allows that to happen, that is. Yuuma already was a problem, the opposition against Hyuse becoming a Border agent/ally would be even greater than that. xDOr read for yourself if you haven't yet. And btw, Live TL is out already too.^^

I love World Trigger. We're getting such intense chapters right now. And man, the neighbour triggers really are something else, I wonder what we will get to see once we're actually in the neighbour dimension. I still think the expedition ship is getting destroyed, too, but right now both sides seem pretty even. It's probably gonna come down to usage of the cannon trigger because Kou can only block one more shot, assuming that he manages to do so again of course.
-
Why does it feel like it takes 2-3 weeks to get a chapter? :$
-
I'm starting to think I'd rather read World Trigger in volume form because I don't want to feel all the hype for the next chapters. I hope the ship doesn't get destroyed because I'm really looking forward to the neighbour world arc. But somehow I feel like Yotaro will end up screwing things up somehow and the ship is going to be destroyed.
World Trigger continues to be awesome with just the secondary characters alone.
