Blog:22 New QnAs Answered on Twitter! (Dec 2022)

No new chapter this month, which was a bummer, because nobody wants to hear that Ashihara isn't doing well :( Hopefully he's feeling better soon. However, we've been BLESSED with new QnAs, instead! That's right! New lore has dropped!

Each day from December 5th through the 9th, 4-6 QnAs were answered on the Official World Trigger Twitter account.

The Question Corner page has been updated accordingly. There you can read AAALLL the QnAs of the past, as well. But for your convenience, I will copy paste the new QnAs here. Many thanks to GM1225 for translating them!

December 5th
Q. Tell me who is the No. 3 Sniper (my prediction is Azuma). A. I checked it and yes, it's Azuma.

Q. Both Ninomiya-san and Kako-san like "talented people", can they understand each other? A. I get the feeling that Ninomiya focuses on talent as "a piece that forms a unit," while Kako-san is looking for talent that "shines as an individual," so they have different view about it.

Q. Why are there so few Shooters? A. I think it is because the Top 3 shooters, Ninomiya, Izumi, and Kako, are hard to follow as role models, and agents cant take the approach of "using tools (guns) to adjust and raise performance."

Q. Who are the fastest members to be promoted to A-Rank after enlisting? A. The conditions of A-Rank promotion are changing little by little as the number of agents increases so I can't use general metric, but I think it's Narasaka, Utagawa, Kikuchihara. Midorikawa, Yuzuru and Kuroe also seem to be fast. If you include operators, Hyami is included.

December 6th
Q. From whom did Amō get his Black Trigger? Q. Is Amō a neighbor? A. The black trigger that Amō used was left behind by Tetsuya Umesaki, a member of Old Border. Amō is from Miden (citizen of Mikado City).

Q. Once Karasuma's Geist is turned on, is it possible to turn it off? Is it the same for Reiji's Full Arms? A. Geist cannot be deactivated once it is activated. Full Arms can be deactivated, but since more than three triggers are used at the same time, the trion consumption will be greater than usual.

Q. Will Mikumo-kun's handsomeness increase without his glasses A. It may go up a little, but most people will not recognize him as Osamu.

Q. Do you think that Raijinmaru carrying Yotaro is heavy? Also, how does Yotaro feel about its comfort? A. Raijinmaru looks strong, so I think she is fine with it. I think Yotaro feels it's luxurious and exclusive, he likes the feel of wind.

December 7th
Q. In chapter 118, who was number 338 that Tōma shot during the stealth and target acquisition training? A. I may have already answered this, but it was either Oki or Tonooka. Tonooka would have been ranked 3rd in that training, so if he managed to escape Tōma, number 338 would have been Oki.

Q. I would like to know from where each member of Suzunari First was scouted from. A. Kon-chan: Chiba prefecture Taichi: Kouchi prefecture Kō: Ehime prefecture I believe it was.

Q. Tsuji-chan seems to refer to guys younger than him with "-kun", so why does he call Urushima by just his last name? A. I think it's because of his cockiness and lack of modesty toward the other party. He also calls Yuiga, Satori, Hanzaki and Midorikawa simply by their last name, and calls Koarai "Koala". Surprisingly, he calls Minamisawa "Kai-kun".

Q. What are the names and ages of Inukai's 2 sisters? A. The eldest daughter: kanade (奏), 23. The second daughter: Akari (明理) 21.

December 8th
Q. Other than Yūma, who else has been scouted byKako-san? A. She greedily recruited Konami, Kage, Kitora, and others. Kazama-san and Kinuta-san have also been targets. No rules.

Q. When Yoneya introduced himself, he said "Yōsuke is fine", but why don't Izumi and Osamu call him by his first name? A. Osamu probably doesn't because he feels uncomfortable calling his seniors by their first names. Izumi probably doesn't because he doesn't want to be called by his first name by him.

Q. Why does Izumi-kun call Kunichika by her first name? A. Maybe because he wants her to call him by his.

Q. Who is the worst at cleaning in Tachikawa Squad? Was Torimaru bad at cleaning too back in the old Tachikawa Squad? A. Torimaru was the only one who had tidying up skills, it's been sad since he left. Tachikawa is the least tidy of the bunch, Kunichika only tidies up game related stuff.

December 9th
Q. Old man Viza and Captain Gatlin are still fighting on the front lines despite their advanced age. In the neighborhood, is it normal for people in their 30s or 40s or older to keep fighting as long as they continue to use their Trion gland? A. Viza is a rather rare case, but it is common for people in their 30s and 40s to still be on the front line.

Q. When Gatlin, Rata and Wen Sō were disguised as Idras was it thanks to Servitora (Straw soldiers)? Is Servitora a different trigger as it seems to set up somewhere else? A. It's a trigger called "Katoptron" [kanji: headdress] that reads the shape of nearby objects or people and transforms your and your allies' Trion bodies into that shape.

Q. What did Yuma think of his father's Side Effect? A. Until he inherited it, he thought it "sounds convenient."

Q. If Yuma lies, does it make him sick cause of his Side Effect? A. I don't think so, but when he looks in the mirror, maybe he'll see smoke coming out of his own mouth?

Q. Does Miwa-kun have any friends in Border outside Miwa Squad? Does he talk to Nire-san and Miura-kun who are in his class? A. He probably doesn't think they are close, but he does talk to Hikari and Muller at school. At HQ he talks to Saeki, Satomi, Momozono, Ōji, Kashio, and Kotaro quite often.

Q. At the end of Volume 20 you mentioned Arashiyama "forces Jin to go on dog walks with him," do you mean by going over to Tamakoma and picking him up? A. Yes, if Jin doesn't show up at the meeting place he does that, but most of the time, Jin does show up by himself.

And that's that! Some great new information, especially about Amō's BT. We were just discussing that question the day before, and bam, next day it was answered! Same thing happened with where Suzunari First's members were from. It's nice to know the #3 sniper, and it's nice to know Miwa has friends. And that Tsuji doesn't respect snipers!

Hopefully soon all the new lore will be added to the appropriate wiki pages. Feel free to help out with that if you see anything missing ;)
