Captain (隊長 Taichō ?) is Episode 82 of the World Trigger Anime.
Short Summary[edit source]
In exchange for Chika being part of the away mission regardless of whether or not Tamakoma Second qualifies, Hyuse can join Border under the condition that he starts from C-rank.
Due to the scheduling of the season, Hyuse's enlistment ceremony and Round 6 are on the same day so Tamakoma Second will fight that round without him.
Tamakoma Second studies their next opponents, meanwhile Ikoma Squad has their own discussion and Ōji thinks about the map in which the next battle will take place.
Long Summary[edit source]
Hyuse once again clarifies that he will not give any information that harms his master, which extends to his country of Aftokrator. Netsuki thinks that is ridiculous but Osamu replies with how Hyuse will cooperate as long as Aftokator isn't involved, while bringing up the point that during Galopoula's Invasion, Hyuse defeated one of the invaders. Kinuta counters by saying they did see the footage but that raises the question of why Hyuse was even outside to which Director Rindo chuckles it off. Kido says that isn't good enough to convince them that Hyuse will cooperate. Osamu tries to argue Hyuse's battle prowess, but Karasawa points out that it only benefits Tamakoma Second.
Netsuki backs up Karasawa, but Shinoda asks Rindo on what his opinion is. He lies and says that he wouldn't want to take Hyuse along as this away mission isn't a direct trip unlike the previous missions so they will need to make several stops for more trion so taking an outsider would be too much of a risk and asks Shinoda if he is right while calling him the leader for the next away mission.
Netsuki teases Rindo before continuing on with the fact that having a Neighbor onboard is absurd. Osamu counters by saying it is actually the opposite as Hyuse can act like a guide since the countries they will go to will be unknown. Kinuta argues that they have Enedorad, and the map from Replica, so they can make a route using those pieces of information, Osamu tells them that is not good enough as they don't know the situation for each country, and he reminds Kinuta that he should know that with a small flashback of how Enedorad claims that fieldwork is for small fry. Osamu claims that he went to Enedorad himself to ask again. Osamu then says that Hyuse can guide them, and Hyuse agrees, saying unless the country is extremely remote he should know about it. Osamu continues with how having a guide would boost their chances of success and that would make Hyuse's cooperation guaranteed.
Shinoda understands that Hyuse wants to get to Aftokrator so he would have to cooperate to get back home during the away mission. Osamu continues by pointing out that Hyuse would only help them get to Aftokrator. Karasawa, Shinoda, and Rindo agree that the benefits outweigh the risks. Netsuki goes to Kinuta for support, but neither of them can do much. Now everything is riding on whether or not Kido prioritizes his hate for Neighbors or the benefits of having Hyuse.
Kido allows Hyuse to join the expedition under the condition that Chika comes along. He reasnos that high trion count would make it so there would be less stops on top of that the away ship would be bigger which would allow for more members. Osamu asks if Chika will still go if their squad fails to get pick, to which Kido confirms. He does note that Chika will be stationed like an engineer instead of a combatant. Osamu is worried about the condition as Chika wouldn't be able to look for her friend or Rinji, but she claims that she is ok with it as she needs to agree to allow Hyuse to join. Plus, they all wanted to join the away mission so it isn't a bad deal. On top of that, she confidently says that their team will make A-rank and join the others.
That reprieve is cut short when Kido mentions the fact that Tamakoma Second won't have a chance to be A-rank. Due to the length of time the upcoming away mission will take, Kido wants to train the away mission members early so the selection exam will come first. Due to this, even if Tamakoma Second qualifies for the A-rank exam, there wouldn't be enough time for the test, This fact upsets Osamu, however Kido has another proposal. As Chika agreed to go on the away ship, the capacity of the crew has increased to the point of keeping A-rank members and still have room for more. This means B-rank agents can go on the away mission. Kido states that he realizes that saying this sooner would be unfair, so he didn't bring it up until now. Yuma clarifies as if Kido mentioned it earlier it would sound like, "Give us Chika if you want to join the away team."
Kido says there are 3 rounds left until the current season ends and that they must reach the top 2 within that time frame. He acknowledges that it is difficult, but they have Hyuse. However he must get in through proper protocol, so he would start out at C-rank and can't join Tamakoma Second until he reaches B-rank just like any other agent. Shinoda comments on how the enlistment ceremony is in 2 days and that he gotten documents from Rindo about Hyuse which are overdue but Shinoda asks Kido if it ok to slid him in, to which Kido agrees.
While walking back the quartet talks about how few matches they have left so they need to do good but mentions how the top 2 for B-rank was their goal in the first place and they even got Hyuse into border so it was a win for them overall and Hyuse reinsures them since Osamu held up his end of the deal he will do the same and will get Tamakoma Second a place in the away mission but it will also be for his sake then Osamu openly welcomes Hyuse while Yuma tells Hyuse to call him Captain.
Karasawa was looking out the window and he asks Director Rindo if the "shift" in the conversation in the beginning part of the plan. Rindo is mildly surprised about it and then we see that Karasawa was talking about how Rindo wouldn't bring Hyuse along for the away mission, We now go back to the present where Rindo says it was Osamu's idea and Karasawa isn't surprised by as it did shift how the negations went then he says that Osamu learned from Netsuki's tactics from the post Aftokrator invasion conference. Netsuki is annoyed/surprised about this as he says that Osamu is a handful while Karasawa claims that is he intriguing.
Konami questions Osamu's decision to lend out Chika for the away mission however Osamu claims that it just turned out that way. Konami continues by saying Hyuse is a rip off compared to Chika but Yuma tells her that they would be unable to join the away mission if they declined while saying that kdio wasn't lying but Konami claims that "old guy" might betray Tamakoma Second and then strangles Osamu over "using" Chika just so they can join the away mission however Reiji steps in and says Usamu told him that Chika was the one who volunteered for the role.
Reiji continues by saying Osamu invited Yuma to Tamakoma Second just to make her wish come true and the duo are trying their best to bring her along onto the away mission and Chika knew that and chose to cooperate so it is not against her will then Yuma reminds them that they want to find replica as well. Konami understands and apologizes for her misunderstanding to which Osamu accepts it however Konami mentions the fact that Chika could be the only member from Tamakoma to go on the away mission so she says they better pass the selection so that doesn't happen.
It is now February 22nd, the day of the 6th round as well as Hyuse's enlistment day. Tamakoma is having a pre-round discussion on how they will only have this match and two more until the selection begins and they would need to close the 5 and 8 point gap to get top 2 within these matches so as Yuma comments, they would need to get 6 points to reach 2nd but Osamu says they could also get more points so Tamakoma has to reach as much as possible and they then pray in hopes that they would score as little as possible.
Usami comments that depending on the how it goes they might face Ninomiya or Kageura Squad so that would be the chance to close the gap to which Osamu agrees with. Osamu says that today is also Hyuse's induction ceremony so he won't be able to fight in this match then says they should review their opponents, Ikoma Squad and Ōji Squad.
Both squads are strong as they have stably been in the top group for B-rank. Yuma says their formation is similar both having a shooter to cover two attackers, however Ikoma Squad additionally has a sniper tohelps cover them. Osamu points out that they have completely different fighting styles. Ikoma Squad's forte is a 4-person multi-angled attack with their their captain and their sniper, Oki being people to watch out for as Oki is a mobile sniper who uses grasshopper while Ikoma is counted as the best Senkū user by Jin with Yuma saying that he uses Senku alot in his matches and they watch the logs that shows his Senku "kills" and each time it ends with him facing the camera to which the trio questions why he always does that.
Now at the Ikoma Squad room, Ikoma and Mizukami comment on Yuma's strength. Ikoma talks about how he was blown away during round 3 with Yuma "killing" Murakami while in the water. Kai saying he saw it 20,000 times to which Oki calls him a liar. Ikoma then continues by saying Osamu suddenly leveled up so Mizukami says they need to do something about those wires but, they aren't choosing the map this time.
Their operator says that the front liners need to stay cool or else they will lose, specifically singling out Kai who is clearly not listening. Ikoma mentioned that they can't forget about Chika who is, "super small and cute" which shocks his group, Oki claims that Ikoma says that about every girl he sees to which Mizukami agrees with. The squad then teases Maori for a while about not ever being called cute. Mizukami says they now know Chika's tricks thanks to Teruya in the last round, Ikoma agrees with him and says she is also cute after an awkward silence. Mizukami says counter sniping is the best way to take her out so they will be counting on Oki, to which he says that he will harden his heart and shoot her.
Back at Tamakoma's operator meeting, Osamu tells the group that Oji Squad is good at close quarters fighting and they move similarly to Kakizaki Squad, they all have Hound and that even their attacker uses it a lot so it would be bad if they got surrounded. Osamu then outs their captain, as he is a trick type attacker who uses Kogetsu, Scorpion and Hound and then mention that his squad gets to choose the map so their tactics depend on which map they chose.
In Oji Squad's operator room, Oji comes out of a separate room and proclaims that the map they will fight in, will be Cityscape A.

Anime and Manga Differences[edit source]
- When Osamu was talking about the neighborhood it shows 3 different Neighbor countries however they use Liberi in the anime while in the manga it looks to be Galopoula.
- When Enedorad is shown, in the anime it shows his plug while in the manga it is omitted.
- Weirdly enough he is also unplugged.
- Yuma has a visual indicator that he is using his Side Effect in the anime while in the manga there is none.
Error[edit source]
- Yutaka Kashio when shown doesn't have Kogetsu despite having it equipped in the manga and in his loadout.
