[00:16] ---
One day, Neighbors, invaders from another
dimension, appeared in Mikado City.
[00:18] ---
Neighbor
[00:20] ---
An organization known as Border
drove them off.
[00:21] ---
Border
Border Defense Agency
[00:24] ---
Four years later,
a Border agent, Osamu Mikumo,
[00:27] ---
meets Yuma Kuga who came from another
dimension and form a team.
[00:30] ---
Together they aim to be promoted.
[00:33] ---
Meanwhile, Osamu and an A-Rank Top agent,
Kazama fought fiercely in a mock battle.
[00:38] ---
Osamu was defeated repeatedly
but he used all his strength,
[00:41] ---
and pulled off a draw in the end.
[00:45] ---
Thanks for waiting.
[00:49] ---
Sorry, my class finished a bit late.
[00:53] ---
The school should have been notified,
[00:56] ---
and if you tell them
it's Border's training,
[00:58] ---
they'll let you leave early, right?
[01:01] ---
Yeah, but...
[01:03] ---
I just got enlisted recently and
it's kind of hard to tell them.
[01:07] ---
You're "oddest."
Just as expected, Chika.
[01:09] ---
"Modest" is what you want to say.
[01:12] ---
Oh?
[01:15] ---
But from now, it's more likely you'll be
late or leave early for training or duty,
[01:20] ---
so you make sure to tell
your teacher and friends around you.
[01:24] ---
Okay!
[01:26] ---
By the way, Osamu.
[01:28] ---
What will I be doing
at today's training?
[01:31] ---
It's your second training
after the enlistment...
[01:34] ---
Perhaps, in a virtual field,
[01:36] ---
you'll have a combat training
assuming various situations.
[01:40] ---
Hmm...
[01:44] ---
I have to go to my own training.
You know the place, right?
[01:48] ---
Leave it to me.
[01:49] ---
Thanks, Osamu-kun.
[01:56] ---
Rank War, Shun Midorikawa's Plot
[02:20] ---
It's that shrimp again.
[02:21] ---
Amazing!
[02:26] ---
Topography traversal training, 1st place
[02:27] ---
That was good. So he's
the newbie at Jin's Branch.
[02:31] ---
If he's really a Neighbor,
that move is not surprising.
[02:35] ---
According to Kitora, it seems like
we owe him something.
[02:39] ---
So...
[02:40] ---
I know.
[02:42] ---
I'll keep him in mind.
[02:44] ---
I'm personally curious about him anyway.
[02:47] ---
I'm counting on you.
[02:58] ---
Covert action training, 1st place
[03:07] ---
Detection and tracking training,
1st place
[03:09] ---
That's the guy...
[03:12] ---
Well... I think I've done
all the training there is.
[03:15] ---
The perfect score for a training
is 20 points.
[03:18] ---
Combining previous and today's combat
trainings, I get an extra 100 points.
[03:22] ---
I need 2,900 more.
[03:24] ---
So that means,
to reach 4,000 points...
[03:27] ---
Joint training is twice a week.
[03:29] ---
If you keep getting perfect scores, you
can get 4,000 points in about 19 weeks.
[03:34] ---
How many days is 19 weeks?
[03:37] ---
133 days.
[03:38] ---
Hmm...
[03:39] ---
I can't wait that long.
[03:41] ---
For impatient people like you,
there's another way to go about it.
[03:46] ---
Oh!
It's Rank Wars.
[03:48] ---
Yep.
This is the lobby for C-Rank Wars.
[03:51] ---
I'll show you how.
[03:53] ---
Let's go in an empty booth.
[03:56] ---
Agents entry confirmed.
Standby mode on.
[04:02] ---
The C-Rank Wars are basically
a one-on-one combat in the virtual field.
[04:07] ---
The procedure is simple.
[04:09] ---
You see the weapons
and points on the screen, right?
[04:13] ---
These are the agents who are
currently in Rank Wars.
[04:16] ---
If you pick an opponent that you want,
you can have a match.
[04:19] ---
You may also get selected
as an opponent by others.
[04:22] ---
If you want to stop fighting,
just get out of the booth.
[04:25] ---
If I want to earn points as quickly
as possible, what should I do?
[04:30] ---
You get more points if you
beat someone with higher points.
[04:35] ---
That means you won't get as many points
if you beat someone who has fewer points.
[04:39] ---
If you lose, you lose a lot of points.
[04:42] ---
Hmm hmm, I see.
[04:46] ---
Thank you for devoting
your time just for me,
[04:49] ---
Kitora's senpai.
[04:51] ---
My name is Tokieda.
[04:52] ---
Thanks, Tokieda senpai.
[04:56] ---
The truly powerful don't cross
dangerous bridges.
[05:00] ---
They follow strategies
and win for a very good reason.
[05:03] ---
Challenging opponents with higher points
is a stupid mistake made by those novices.
[05:08] ---
It's not much, but you can still get
points even from the weak.
[05:13] ---
Snatch from those you can defeat.
[05:16] ---
This is the basic plan for the winners.
[05:19] ---
It's an inevitable conclusion.
[05:22] ---
Hey, it looks like
a new sacrifice is here.
[05:26] ---
Well...
[05:27] ---
I might go teach them
the harshness of this world.
[05:31] ---
Hey, don't bully rookies too much
and break their spirit.
[05:35] ---
You need to show mercy to the weak.
[05:37] ---
The weak are always victims of the strong.
It's how the world goes round.
[05:40] ---
Putting an end to those without a future
is a kindness too, right?
[05:46] ---
We should book after him.
[05:50] ---
Battle stage: Cityscape A.
[05:52] ---
C-Rank War, begin.
[05:57] ---
Oh? You're one of the new idiot trio.
[05:59] ---
What? It's you...!
[06:02] ---
Well, then...
[06:04] ---
let us begin.
[06:11] ---
Wow.
[06:12] ---
This is much faster than training.
[06:15] ---
It looks that way.
[06:17] ---
As your points get higher, it'll be harder
to take points from others.
[06:22] ---
Maybe I should fight another round
with the new idiot trio...
[06:24] ---
Don't squeeze too many points
out of them and break their spirit.
[06:31] ---
So that's Kuga's son.
[06:33] ---
Right, Yuma Kuga.
Pretty skillful, isn't he?
[06:38] ---
Kazama,
[06:39] ---
what are your thoughts on him?
[06:43] ---
He's still C-Rank,
so I can't say for certain, but...
[06:48] ---
He clearly moves like
he's used to fighting.
[06:51] ---
If he uses a combat Trigger,
he's probably at the master level,
[06:56] ---
with power above 8,000 points.
[06:58] ---
8,000!
[07:00] ---
If so, it probably wasn't a good idea
to place him among other C-Rank agents.
[07:05] ---
We should've started him
about 3,000 points
[07:07] ---
and raised him to B-rank early.
[07:09] ---
If I remember correctly, didn't we start
Kitora at 3,600 points?
[07:13] ---
I wanted to do that but I thought
Kido-san would have complained...
[07:19] ---
Why doesn't he use his Black Trigger?
[07:22] ---
If he wants to be promoted,
being S-Rank is the fastest way.
[07:26] ---
Oh, come now.
[07:28] ---
If he used a Black Trigger,
[07:30] ---
you would find some reason
to take it away from him.
[07:34] ---
You'd say "I approved his enlistment
but not the use of a Black Trigger."
[07:41] ---
The other day, the one who made
a hole on the wall of a training space
[07:44] ---
is also the newbie from
Tamakoma Branch, right?
[07:46] ---
Chika Amatori.
[07:49] ---
Her Trion is a bit too powerful.
[07:52] ---
She'll be a good asset to you someday,
so let it slide.
[07:58] ---
Her brother and friend
were abducted by Neighbors.
[08:01] ---
To get them back, she aims to be
chosen as part of the away squad.
[08:06] ---
Yuma and another teammate, Osamu
are there to give her a hand.
[08:11] ---
A Neighbor retrieving humans
abducted by Neighbors...
[08:17] ---
How ridiculous.
[08:20] ---
There are multiple countries
in the "Neighborhood."
[08:24] ---
It would be difficult to determine
which country abducted them.
[08:28] ---
Besides, who knows if the victims
are still alive or not...
[08:33] ---
Unfortunately, a rescue isn't
very realistic.
[08:37] ---
So they shouldn't even go?
[08:40] ---
You can't argue on probabilities.
[08:43] ---
I'm saying that the world is more cruel
than those kids can imagine.
[08:47] ---
But, if there is some purpose,
they'll be more motivated.
[08:52] ---
Whether it's rescue or revenge.
[08:56] ---
Right, Soya?
[08:59] ---
That might be true for Miwa...
[09:01] ---
I'm not really trying to seek
revenge for my brother.
[09:05] ---
Oh? Have you somewhat changed
your values after the expedition?
[09:08] ---
I haven't changed a bit from before.
[09:11] ---
I just follow orders from Border
to exterminate Neighbors.
[09:16] ---
After the skirmish last month,
Miwa seems to be troubled somehow.
[09:21] ---
Oh boy.
What happened?
[09:23] ---
It seems like
Arashiyama said something to him.
[09:25] ---
Hmm...
I wonder what it is.
[09:29] ---
Hello hello, sorry to be late.
The power elite is here.
[09:35] ---
Good, everyone is here.
[09:37] ---
Let's get to business.
[09:40] ---
Today's topic is what's projected
to happen in the near future...
[09:44] ---
A large-scale Neighbor invasion.
[09:53] ---
The newbie from Tamakoma!
[09:55] ---
He was in under one second
at the combat training!
[09:58] ---
Hmm...
[10:00] ---
I still don't get it.
[10:02] ---
I know that metal-like thing is money,
[10:05] ---
but compared to the metal,
the paper has high value.
[10:11] ---
It's just paper...
[10:13] ---
Hmm...
as far as appearances go,
[10:15] ---
basically, the higher the number gets,
the bigger the size becomes.
[10:19] ---
If metal continues to get bigger,
the money will be too heavy to bring.
[10:25] ---
In order to avoid it, paper, which is
lighter, might be used instead.
[10:30] ---
Hmm...
it kind of makes sense.
[10:37] ---
When you buy something,
the money increases.
[10:39] ---
This is a mystery too.
[10:41] ---
It's a "change."
It was broken down.
[10:50] ---
You walk around as if you own this place,
[10:53] ---
Neighbor!
[10:55] ---
You are...
[10:58] ---
the one with the "weight-gain" bullet.

[12:39] ---
Look, that guy with glasses is recently...
[12:41] ---
The one who tied with Kazama-san?
[12:43] ---
Now that you mentioned it,
he does seem composed.
[12:45] ---
No...
I am not composed.
[12:50] ---
The truth is twisted and spread out.
[12:55] ---
It was a tie, but to be precise,
it was 24 losses, and one tie...
[13:01] ---
But without being asked...
[13:03] ---
I was defeated 24 times!
[13:09] ---
That would be weird too...
[13:11] ---
If only someone asks me...
[13:14] ---
Hey you,
[13:16] ---
I wanna ask you something.
[13:18] ---
W... what is it?
[13:20] ---
That emblem on your shoulder.
[13:22] ---
Isn't it Tamakoma's?
[13:24] ---
Are you an agent from Tamakoma Branch?
[13:26] ---
Eh? Yeah, I am...
[13:30] ---
I enlisted at HQ first,
but I transferred to Tamakoma.
[13:35] ---
Transfer?
[13:36] ---
Why? How did you get transferred?
[13:39] ---
A lot of things happened
[13:41] ---
but a guy named Jin-san
from Tamakoma invited me...
[13:44] ---
Hmm... I see.
[13:47] ---
Are you off-duty today?
You're off from defense missions?
[13:50] ---
Uh, yeah. I'm off...
[13:53] ---
Well then,
[13:54] ---
Let's have a solo Rank War, you and I.
[13:58] ---
A solo Rank War?
[14:00] ---
Isn't an official agent's Rank War
a group battle?
[14:04] ---
If we use a C-Rank booth,
we can just do it normally.
[14:07] ---
We can't scramble for points
with trainees though.
[14:11] ---
Let's do it. A ten-rounds game,
or even a five-rounds game is fine.
[14:15] ---
It's been so long since I've had
a proper Rank War.
[14:21] ---
All right. Let's do it.
[14:23] ---
Are they gonna fight?
[14:31] ---
Somehow, it's getting even weirder.
[14:35] ---
Who is this boy?
He seems like an official agent...
[14:53] ---
What's wrong? You seem down.
[14:55] ---
Before, you would just suddenly
start shooting at me.
[15:00] ---
Since HQ accepted your enlistment,
killing you would be
[15:05] ---
a violation of the regulations.
[15:06] ---
Hmm.
[15:08] ---
Oh, the little Black Trigger boy!
[15:10] ---
Working hard, everyone?
[15:12] ---
Oh yeah, you've joined Border.
[15:15] ---
The spear guy and Yotaro?
[15:18] ---
Why are you together?
[15:20] ---
I'm babysitting Lord Brat.
[15:22] ---
Yosuke is Shiori-chan's cousin.
[15:25] ---
Oh. Shiori-chan's.
[15:27] ---
I'm Yosuke Yoneya.
[15:28] ---
Tamakoma and HQ get along
more than I thought?
[15:32] ---
Shiori-chan and Torimaru were at HQ
until a little over a year ago.
[15:38] ---
Even now, they still sometimes
come to HQ.
[15:40] ---
Really.
[15:41] ---
So they are like Osamu.
[15:43] ---
By the way, Shuji.
[15:44] ---
Weren't you called for the meeting
regarding you-know-what?
[15:49] ---
I told Kazama-san that
I feel ill and will be absent.
[15:53] ---
So, you feel ill...
[15:55] ---
No, no.
[15:57] ---
He believed killing Neighbors
was a matter of course, but...
[16:01] ---
As a power elite,
I've got to protect my dear kouhai.
[16:05] ---
I approve of Tamakoma Branch Yuma Kuga's
official enlistment in Border.
[16:10] ---
People around him recently started
saying the opposite and he's confused.
[16:14] ---
Oh, I see.
[16:16] ---
Your sister was killed
by Neighbors, right?
[16:19] ---
Why do you know that?
[16:21] ---
If you want revenge,
I can help you.
[16:24] ---
What?
[16:25] ---
If my partner investigate in details,
[16:27] ---
he could probably narrow it down to which
nation's Trion soldier killed your sister.
[16:32] ---
If you're going to do it anyway,
you might as well go all-out.
[16:36] ---
Shut up! I don't need your help.
[16:40] ---
All Neighbors are enemies.
[16:43] ---
Hey, Shuji. Where are you going?
[16:45] ---
I'm going to that meeting.
[16:47] ---
Oh well. Serious guys have it tough.
[16:51] ---
Hey! I just remembered that I made
a promise to have a match with you!
[16:54] ---
If you're free,
let's fight one battle, yeah?
[16:57] ---
Can an official agent
and a trainee fight?
[17:00] ---
Kazama senpai didn't have
a match with me though.
[17:03] ---
We can't fight on Rank Wars
where points are involved,
[17:06] ---
but we can have free practice matches.
[17:09] ---
Kazama-san has a lot of pride,
[17:11] ---
so he might want to seriously
fight in Rank Wars.
[17:14] ---
To me, having fun beats everything.
[17:16] ---
So, yeah, let's go to the battle booth.
[17:19] ---
According to those facts,
we speculate that the next invasion
[17:23] ---
with high probability, will be by
a larger scale force than four years ago.
[17:29] ---
Unfortunately, which nations will raid
[17:33] ---
is still under investigation.
[17:36] ---
Jin.
[17:38] ---
You should be able to see it.
[17:41] ---
Vaguely, yes.
[17:42] ---
But, you don't have to depend
on my Side Effect,
[17:46] ---
when you have a more
reliable information source.
[17:50] ---
"Reliable?"
[17:51] ---
You mean, Yuma Kuga?
[17:53] ---
You came around to approve his enlistment,
so why not use him?
[18:02] ---
By the way, you're really
a Neighbor, right?
[18:05] ---
Have you fought a lot of different
types of guys over there?
[18:08] ---
Yeah.
[18:09] ---
Within those guys, how strong am I?
[18:11] ---
Hmm... You're not bad.
[18:14] ---
Damn. I expected that but that's it.
[18:17] ---
Over there, there's a lot of guys
that are hard to kill, even for me.
[18:22] ---
Really... The other world
is big too, I guess.
[18:27] ---
It's going to be interesting.
[18:29] ---
"Going to be...?"
[18:30] ---
Never mind.
[18:31] ---
Here we are.
[18:36] ---
What is this? There's an unusual
amount of spectators.
[18:42] ---
"Mikumo...?"
[18:42] ---
Mikumo
[18:53] ---
Ten rounds completed. Ten to zero.
[18:56] ---
A-Rank No.4, Kusakabe Squad
Attacker: Shun Midorikawa (14)
[18:56] ---
The winner is Midorikawa.
[19:01] ---
Oh, it's Osamu! He lost!
[19:03] ---
It's the four-eyed boy.
He had a Rank War with Midorikawa?
[19:05] ---
Midorikawa / Mikumo
[19:08] ---
"Midorikawa?"
[19:12] ---
A total defeat...
[19:14] ---
I couldn't read his moves
until the end.
[19:17] ---
Hey, Osamu!
[19:19] ---
What do you think you're doing losing?
[19:22] ---
You stand out.
[19:24] ---
Yotaro!
[19:26] ---
Kuga!
[19:27] ---
Thanks, Four-Eyes.
[19:30] ---
I roughly know your skill level
so I'm done with you.
[19:34] ---
You can go now.
[19:41] ---
The glasses guy was kinda mediocre.
[19:44] ---
He couldn't move at all.
[19:45] ---
What a letdown.
[19:46] ---
He's being made a complete fool
by Midorikawa, who's younger.
[19:52] ---
I'll avenge Osamu's honor!
[19:55] ---
Let's go Raijin-maru!
[19:57] ---
Raijin-maru!
[20:00] ---
Hey, did you attract all these spectators?
[20:04] ---
No.
[20:05] ---
They must've heard the rumor that
he tied with Kazama-san and came.
[20:10] ---
I see.
[20:14] ---
You make up the stupidest lies.
[20:19] ---
Have a match with me too, Midorikawa.
[20:22] ---
If you win,
[20:24] ---
I'll give you all of my points.
[20:27] ---
1,508 points.
[20:29] ---
What...!
[20:30] ---
Wait, what about the match with me?
[20:33] ---
1,500...? You're just C-Rank.
[20:36] ---
You're going to fight me
with a training Trigger?
[20:39] ---
Yeah. Against you,
it should be more than enough.
[20:43] ---
Who is this guy?
Is he from Tamakoma too?
[20:49] ---
All right. Let's do it.
[20:51] ---
What do you want if you win?
3,000 points? 5,000 points?
[20:55] ---
I don't want points.
[20:57] ---
Instead, if I win, you'll start
saying "senpai."
[21:01] ---
Oh, you're older than me?
[21:03] ---
You're so tiny that I thought
you're younger than me.
[21:06] ---
Okay.
[21:07] ---
If I happen to lose, I'll call you
"senpai" how ever many times you'd like.
[21:12] ---
No, not me.
[21:15] ---
You'll be calling our captain "senpai."
[21:22] ---
Is Yuma actually angry?
[21:28] ---
After this, Yuma and Chika will explain
about promotion to B-Rank!
[21:31] ---
WORLD TRIGGER Fun Facts
[21:32] ---
About promotion to B-Rank
[21:33] ---
You did great, Yuma-kun.
[21:35] ---
In the topography traversal training,
the covert action training,
[21:35] ---
1. Topography traversal training
[21:36] ---
2. Covert action training
[21:38] ---
and the detection and tracking training,
you got 1st places in all of them!
[21:38] ---
3. Detection and tracking training
[21:40] ---
It's just a minor skill.
[21:43] ---
So, Chika, how did you do?
[21:45] ---
I... I'll work on it slowly.
[21:49] ---
But, if you don't reach
4,000 points soon,
[21:51] ---
you can't become B-Rank
and fight beside Osamu.
[21:54] ---
You're right.
[21:55] ---
In joint training
and combat training,
[21:55] ---
Joint training
Combat training
[21:57] ---
the perfect score for
each category is 20 points.
[21:59] ---
20 points each
[22:01] ---
In Yuma-kun's case,
[22:01] ---
In Yuma's case
[22:02] ---
you scored perfect on both previous
and today's combat trainings.
[22:05] ---
Combat training x 2:
Both perfect
[22:06] ---
You got 20 points each, so now
you got 40 points in total.
[22:09] ---
And today's joint training had three
categories and you got all perfect scores.
[22:13] ---
Joint training x 3:
All perfect
[22:13] ---
So, 20 times three equals 60...
[22:16] ---
And you add them all up...
Wow! You got 1,100 points!
[22:16] ---
Aim for 4,000 points!
1,100 Yuma
[22:22] ---
Actually, after that there were some nice
guys who gave me a few hundred points.
[22:23] ---
Nice guys
[22:26] ---
Now, I got altogether 1,508 points.
[22:29] ---
Wow! Really?
[22:31] ---
Yeah. For the next training, I'm thinking
to get some points from them again,
[22:36] ---
but Replica says I shouldn't.
[22:36] ---
Don't.
[22:39] ---
Is that so?
[22:40] ---
If they were that nice,
I think they'd be happy to...
[22:44] ---
You think so?
[22:45] ---
A nice guy:
"Go ahead!"
[22:46] ---
Hmm. If Chika says so,
it can't be wrong.
[22:49] ---
All right! I won't hesitate to get
plenty of points from them!
[22:52] ---
Yeah!
[22:53] ---
See you!
[22:56] ---
