Lol, this is cute:


Kagome was silly this episode imo. Oh look, it's Rie Kuigmiya voicing her, no surprise there. Pretty lighthearted episode overall. Not sure I like Kagome though as she seems a bit childish although that energy she brings in is quite something. And her little rivalry with Yuuma made me giggle.

Osamu might be the only one out of the three who is ordinary lol. Man Chika has a lot of endurance to keep shooting non stop. Konami's a funny character. Can't wait for the next episode.

Finally Konami has appeared! I wasn't expecting her to be voice by Kugie Rie but that really made what happen this ep transpired with her personality. It looks like all the elite realize they aren't normal rookies.

Honestly, this adaption is just so slow its really sad how boring it gets at times.
Either way Konami's voice really didn't fit her imo. It just felt way too kiddish to fit her as well.
2/5 episode.

The two needs to be rank B first in order for three of them to be rank A. Though Black trigger cannot be used. So the girls is sniper. Kugimiiya-san, Maeno-san, and FukuJun?! as the rest of the members. They are introduced to train them.

Neighbor guy can still win Kugimiya-san by only once, and the girl is patient. KajiKaji's character is too weak for rank B...

Chibi corner back with Kugimiya-san and FukuJun's characters.

January 11 next. New battle for the others.

They revealed Konami's trigger this episode which is too early compared to the manga. Yotaro's funny as usual.

Brace yourselves for the next episode. Epicness awaits. =3=

I'm surprised they have pretty well known VAs, considering their budget...?

Well anyways, Osamu's going to have a tough time. He has two monsters for teammates. I don't know how he'll qualify for A-rank.

Next episode looks like some more action, I love the dashing scene with the guys in cloaks. XD

Really like it that Rie Kugimiya is voicing Konami. She is one of my favorite characters in WT. Also like her chemistry with Yuma.

However, Yotaro is still the best character for me. LOL.

Loved this ep :D The new 3 characters are nice.

Loving Konami :3 And Kugie Rie voicing her totally fits. Loved her interactions with Yuma XD The way both of them starting calling eachother by "Senpai" and "Yuma" was cool. both admit that the other is worthy of respect :) Konami's pretty cute visually too <3

Osamu really needs to find something he's special at <_<

Loved Chika's limitless Trion part :3

Nxt ep should be awesome :D

Osamu is TRULY ordinary. No power-up by eating a superhero's hair or having a Quincy mom and a Shikagami dad o having eaten a devil fruit or having a monster inside your body/soul. Just a boringly normal guy who tries his best to stnad up for his conviction. And as we heard from his trainer, he's a weak boringly normal guy. XDDD

I'm used to the slow pace now, as long as it got no more epic long stand still scenes like in the first episode (seriously, why was the first episode the worst animated so far, shouldn't that normally be like the very best one to capture the viewers?) I can watch it without getting bored. But that is probably also due now knowing that it is 50 episodes long and knowing what will come next. And I like what comes "next arc" in WT.^^

Before hearing Konami's voice I would have agreed with you. Reading the manga I had always a sort of "mature, bit sexy" voice in my head when imagining Konami speaking, certainly deeper than Rie's usual voice-acting.
But then seeing Konami's actions and nature in motion, as her anger mismanagement and her naive and guilble personality while loving to battle and pride of her skill, the voice somehow fit her much better than I had imagined.
Kinda like a bit older Kagura from Gintama you know?^^
Will probably still take a bit of time to get used to her voice and not immediately imagine an Umbrella in her hands, but her voice did not ruin her character for me. I can like that voice and see no big problems with it, given how Konami got introduced and shown in this episode. :)

That said, I had no clue that Konami carried a red/pink Trigger. Feels too feminine for her from her usual behaviour. XD
Or that we already got to see her combat trion body, something we had to wait several months for in the manga till that happened - niiiiiiccceeeeeee~ <3 <3 <3

Why pointless? We got shown the other three people besides Jin who makes up the entire battle power of the Tamakoma branch with its 10 members. And said people became the mentors/trainers for our MC trio so that they can reach their goal to become A-rank and get chosen for away missions in neighbor countries.
We got shown how Trigger technology is not only about weapons but also about creating realistic 3d holograms with deep vision and what not. I bet that river even SMELLED like a river. Imaigne such technology in cinemas! Or even for uses at homes, like a "vacation room" where people tell their trigger pc to turn that room into a Hawaii beach and then relax there on the bench, while the trion used up by the machine creates waves, smells and even hot sunshine.
People probably wouldn't leave their houses for vacations anymore if this hit the free market. XD
And we saw the return of the Top 3 A teams of HQ, a transmission to the next episode where they will try to take Yuuma's trigger and Tamakoma aka Jin trying to prevent that from happening.

But if it was pointless for you two, then that's something I cannot quite follow. What would you have liked to see to make it an episode with "a point" or "several points"?

Wow, this episode went by quick!
Looks like trouble for the MC though. Hes far too weak to even hold a candle to his team mates. But at least he has willpower and guts. So hes not totally useless.
Still trying to get used to Chika's face though.

6 minutes in and the OP starts playing. When will they learn?

Yuuma really wants to join ranking competition while Chika wants to fight.
But in order to do that, they must undergo rigorous training via mentors.

Konami will teach Yuuma.
Reiji will teach Chika.
Kyosuke will teach Osamu.
So far, they are all trying their best, however it seems Osamu is the ordinary one of the bunch.

Meanwhile, Jin will be the one to stop the A-Rank Border agents from stealing Yuuma's Black Trigger.

kinda disappointed i didnt get to see the trigger yuma picked
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

Konami is so gullible, it's amusing! She's pretty cute too! :3
Loved her interactiona with Kuga. Wished they'd shown us their sparring session too.

Chika will inevitably become a great sniper, considering her vast trion level.

Only Osamu needs some more improvement. As one of the MC, he's still pretty weak.

Decent episode. Looking forward to Jin's awesomeness next.

They will need some smart and serious training program to get Osamu the necessary progress before the others surpass him. I wonder if the author will make something to empower him at some point so he won't be left behind.

Are you talking of Yuga vs Konami fight right? In the manga it isn't shown as well, so this is like the manga. In reality in the manga there isn't even the transformation part!

But you people haven't seen Chika's Trion volume yet, heck even a multipurpose Trion soldier, Replica built by Neighbors who have been utilizing Trions far longer than humans on this side haven't seen anything like it.

Well, I should also name this anime xD. although first it was Luise and Nagi, for that reason was named queen tsundere: 3

Now, the teams have arrived, let's see what happens since kuga officially joined the branch.
