Toei Animation to Celebrate Season 2 of WORLD TRIGGER with Fan Livestream Watch Party
The second season of World Trigger premiered recently, and Toei Animation has some plans to celebrate. The animation company recently announced a global fan event called the World Trigger Season 2 Global Livestream Watch Party which will allow fans from the United States, Canada, Latin America, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe to enjoy a simulcast event hosted by Justin Rojas and Lisa Wallen.
The event will include an introduction to the series and a special video message from Japanese cast members, a screening of the first two episodes of Season 2 (in Japanese with English subtitles), post-episode discussions, and promotional giveaways. The event is set to last for two hours and will start on January 30 at 5 PM Pacific over on Toei Animation’s U.S. Facebook and YouTube channels. The cast members involved include Tomo Muranaka who voices Yūma Kuga, Kenta Tanaka who voices Sumiharu Inukai, Toshiyuki Toyonaga who voices Ratarykov, and Ayumu Murase who voices Reghindetz.
Border Defence Agency was established to counter the attacks from the "Neighbors," beings from the other world possessing unknown forces. A low rank Border agent, Osamu Mikumo, teams up with a Neighbor, Yuma Kuga, and a childhood friend, Chika Amatori. They strive to win through the Rank Wars within the Border to be selected for the away squads to the "Neighborhood," the other world. Meanwhile, another attack from the Neighborhood was detected. Mikado City is still damaged from the second large-scale invasion by the largest military nation, Aftokrator. To prevent panic among the city and citizens, Border arranges a confidential interception based on the foresight of Yuichi Jin by mainly deploying selected A-Rank elite squads. But when a Gate appears, and Attacker rank #1 Kei Tachikawa set to take action, Jin sees an ominous future.
