A popular anime series from Shonen Jump might be getting a fresh start. Shonen Jump is planning a big announcement event later this month to reveal its upcoming projects, and some series are already hinting at what’s to come. This particular series is especially interesting because it’s faced numerous interruptions and hasn’t had a chance to fully connect with fans.
Daisuke Ashihara’s World Trigger has had a unique journey. The manga has faced several delays, leaving fans waiting years for new chapters. The anime adaptation has also experienced setbacks – after a first season of over 70 episodes in 2016, it took five years for new seasons to arrive. Now, there’s exciting news: the series is teasing a “reboot” announcement scheduled for December 4th in Japan, just before Jump Festa 2026.
World Trigger Teases Reboot for the Anime

The official social media for the World Trigger anime has announced something new is coming on December 4th, but fans are curious about what it means. While it’s being called a “reboot,” a complete restart of the series seems unlikely. World Trigger isn’t one of the biggest anime hits, and the original manga still has a lot of content that hasn’t been adapted, thanks to several pauses in its publication.
The term “reboot” is probably just a catchy way of saying the anime is coming back. That’s great news for fans who have been waiting for a fourth season – it’s been three years since the last one aired! We’ll know for sure what’s happening in just a few days, so the wait isn’t much longer.
What’s Going on With World Trigger?
World Trigger has faced some challenges with its release schedule and popularity over the years. Although the anime has aired three seasons – a good run for many shows – it hasn’t been without problems. The final episodes of season three were delayed due to production difficulties, and fan engagement had started to decrease around that time. This was also compounded by long waits between new manga chapters.
Longtime fans of the series will be rewarded with exciting action and a satisfying story. If the anime gets a fourth season, it’s likely to do well, and we might learn more at Jump Festa 2026 in Japan on December 20th and 21st.
