Toei Animation opened an official website for a new “Reboot Project” of Daisuke Ashihara‘s World Trigger manga on Thursday, revealing a teaser visual (pictured) and a 15-second special report video. Additional information about the project will be announced during the Jump Festa 2026 stage event on December 20.
Ashihara serialized the action sci-fi manga in Weekly Shounen Jump in February 2013, before taking a hiatus due to health reasons. The manga returned from a nearly two-year hiatus in October 2018 and switched to Jump SQ. in December that year. Shueisha published the 29th volume on Thursday. The manga has a cumulative over 15 million copies of its volumes in circulation.
Viz Media licensed the series in English and released the 27th volume on February 4, with the 28th volume set to release in March 2026.
Produced by Toei Animation, the first television anime began airing in Fall 2014. The anime series was originally listed for 50 episodes, but was later extended to 73 episodes. The second season aired in 12 episodes in Winter 2021 and the third season aired in Fall 2021, consisting of 14 episodes. Crunchyroll simulcast the anime season as they aired in Japan.
Synopsis
Mikado City, an otherwise peaceful city, is suddenly invaded after a gate from another world opens seemingly from nowhere. Interdimensional monsters called Neighbors attack, man-made weapons prove to be ineffective against them, and the city is quickly destroyed. When all hope appears to be lost, a mysterious group known as the Border Defense Agency begins to retaliate using specialized technology called Triggers and manages to halt the invasion. Four years later, the organization continues to protect the populace of Mikado City and are now revered as heroes.
Yuuma Kuga is a new student at First Mikado City High School—a school associated with Border—which comes as a surprise, as transfers to the dangerous areas are seen as suspicious. He is soon targeted by bullies, but Border’s member-in-training Osamu Mikumo stands up for Yuuma, despite his doubts about him. The two’s situation turns grim when a Neighbor arrives from a gate that abruptly opens in the forbidden zone; while Osamu struggles to fend it off with his Trigger, Yuuma defeats it with ease. As Osamu inquires about Yuuma’s position in Border, it turns out that Yuuma is no agent—but a Neighbor himself. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
