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. Other than that said, I really enjoyed the first season of World Trigger.

Plot | 08
Main character becomes a huge icon and fights neighbors and their creations. He allies with a neighbor and forms a team with him and another girl, their sniper. This genre is not uncommon, but the plot is quite common found in anime similarly to Bleach, Kekkaishi, and Gate. I have this an 08 only because I enjoyed the difference between the action anime that have been coming out.

Art | 07
Although, not aesthetically drawn, it is simple and easy on the eyes. Nothing too flashy, sparkly, glamorous, and just right for an action anime. To me, it's not the details that matter, but how the backgrounds and characters mesh.

Sound | 06
There aren't really any dramatic or suspenseful soundtracks in this anime. The sound effects are cool and basic, nothing too much to the ears.

Character | 08
I couldn't really come to like Osamu, the main character. He is physically weak and takes him too long to realize he needed to focus and train on his body. Although, he is very intelligent and is the brain of his team. You could say he is also one of the "useless" teammates. Chika, the sniper, is a very tiny, timid, and short girl. She knows she is weak so she wanted to be someone useful to the team. She holds a lot of Trion, so she can shoot massive explosions. I came to like her in the end. Kuga, is probably my second favorite character in this anime, he is the neighbor, and is very strong. He knows when his opponent is stronger than him and thinks logically. The other characters in the anime, you don't really focus too much on them.

Enjoyment |08
I probably started getting into World Trigger around episode 28. The first 20 episodes are boring and Osamu is weak and boring, dull, incapable of getting stronger. But after a while, when he realizes how weak he is, he changes and the story starts moving. My favorite part of the anime is during the team fights.

Overall | 08
The anime wasn't bad nor amazing, but it was worth the while to watch. Chika and Kuga really grow on you more than Osamu does. I would definitely watch this again C=
