All characters and voice actors in ‘World Trigger’

Even if you prioritize a few, there's still a massive number of names to know.

World Trigger is a sci-fi anime of truly epic appropriations. Directed by Mitsuru Hongo, Kouji Ogawa, and then Morio Hatano, the 99-episode anime from Toei Animation (of Dragon Ball fame) wrapped up in January of 2022 after seven years of production.

Based on Daisuke Ashihara’s shonen sci-fi battle manga about extra-dimensional monsters called Neighbors and the humans who fight them with Triggers, the series has been serialized since 2013 in Weekly Shonen Jump and now in Jump Square

In a series this big, there are dozens and dozens of unique characters, some of which only appear in the manga, and most of which have Japanese, English, and several other voice actors. All three seasons have yet to be localized, however.

  • Osamu Mikumo, voiced by Brian Doe
  • Chika Amatori, voiced by Caitlyn Bairstow (Suna in Mega Man: Fully Charged)
