Oh boy, what a cliffhanger. It seems likely that it will be a double K.O. for Kuga and his opponent. Though since it was an isolated fight, its outcome doesn't really effect the overall winner of the match much. It will just be important for points sake. Kuga might survive the hit though, so I guess we will see.

On the other side, Mikumo is actually doing pretty well against the pink team, even though they have an ace that sort of rivals Kuga's skills. Though he has help and a terrain advantage, it's good to see him actually do well for once.

Their plan was genius. Use their sniper Chika to weaken the other teams, and then protect their sniper using the spider webs and making the other teams split up to get through to their sniper. That way, the sniper would have free reign to snipe them and they would need to watch out for the sniper and the man on the ground with the spider webs around. The only option was to get through the disadvantageous terrain to hit the sniper, but that is easier said than done.

I still don't see Mikumo's team losing this battle, both for plots sake and for strategy sake. They have the upper hand. The battle will most likely conclude next episode. Looking forward to seeing how it ends.

This episode was really well done. Looking forward to the next one. That fight at the very end was very good. Kakizaki not giving up yet even though the odds are against them.

Mikumu and Chika have both improved greatly which is nice to watch. I don’t really care about the other team leader’s backstory, but it’s good to know I guess. I can’t buy him shooting Yuma at point blank though, Yuma should be too experienced to die like that.

Aw shit, I hope it won't take out Kuga with that, they still need him!

Although if he does, it'll be very interesting seeing Chika and Osamu going against the pink squad, well, after they beat the last girl standing from Kakizaki Squad

I hope Mikumu and get someone off that other team. Their ace was really pissing me off. Glad he got her leg. Looks like Chika will have a head 2 head. I wonder what she'll do.

I agree. I don't buy him being that overconfident. It makes a great cliffhanger though.

This episode was intense and very interesting to watch. I loved the battle, though it's important to see whether Kuga will really get taken out by the point blank shot. Looking forward to how the whole battle plays out to its end, otherwise. The backstories were short enough and good to have in such length.

Doesn’t World Trigger update on Sunday though? I thought they were airing the missed episode today and then air ep 7 tomorrow, but I guess we’ll find out tomorrow if they plan on doing that or not.

Nah episodes are always out at this time every Saturday. Would have loved episode 7 as well but we will probably just have an extra week of this show instead.

Just when I thought the rank wars would be one sided, Kakizaki point-blanks Kuga, with a possible double-KO as the cliffhanger. What an intense match, noticed some roughness here and there, but nothing was too bothersome.

Glad the people in Japan are safe, anybody who were mad about the delay over Japan's safety don't deserve anime.

Hopefully Kakizaki's point blank shot doesn't take out Kuga, Tamakoma needs him or they pretty much have no shot at winning.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

Beside strategy and fighting system, another things to love about World Trigger are actually well written side characters. It just, really fun to watch.

But of course, i'm still rooting for the MC to win this round. I hope Kuga don't receive any critical damages since he is the ace of the team. Also, my boi Osamu really shine this episodes lol, he can fought against whole team and not even dying.

Now that is what I call a cliffhanger. We must wait another week to know what happens to Kuga. The yellow team really one of the best captain in the Boarder. Unfortunately, he doesn't trust his teammates' capabilities and it causes them to up and down in the ranking. Overall, it was a decent episode. This episode was packed with good action and fighting scenes.

ROKUROxYOKO makes a great couple! Both of them blaming each other is funny to watch.

Good to see Chika the Cannon still got it. It'd be cool if she could make those lead bullets the size of a building making it harder for them to move around the map.

As expected, everyone (especially Katori) is not digging Osamu's deliberate tactics. Then again with the Kuga being a combo to that, I don't blame them. Didn't know you could use grasshopper that way.

Good on Kakizaki getting a hit on Kuga before bailing out. Gotta get some revenge for his ally getting decapitated.

Yumaaa!!
Nice fight, I like Kakizaki, his story is somewhat sad. Still not a fan of the other team.
Can't Chika just take her Ibis and destroy the building? That would be funny to see.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!

This reminds us why Arashiyama was so much on Mikumo's side during the school attack as opposed to the general consensus of "fuck them kids". His family is there, family first, protect everyone until dead. It's a common trope in society that if a soldier is worrying about their family, they can't achieve their mission on the battlefield as loyal to the people as they may be.

One squad is so fucked while the other is pretty good with lots of room for improvement.
5/5, this match is really good set-up for Chika, especially with Spider and Kuga and no other snipers.
