After being delayed for one week, the final episode of World Trigger Season 3 was recently released. Now, anime fans wonder if Toei Animation plans to renew the series for a Season 4. Well, here's everything you need to know about it.
World Trigger is an anime adaptation based on a Japanese manga by Daisuke Ashihara. Toei Animation premiered the first season of World Trigger back in 2014, which featured around 70 episodes. The season was well-received by the community, and it came to an end in 2016.
Then, in 2021, the studio brought back the series with two more seasons, with the old cast reprising their roles. But now, the third season has also ended after giving us 14 incredible episodes.

Will World Trigger Get a Season 4?
When writing this post, Toei Animation didn't officially announce Season 4 of the World Trigger anime. That said, there's a good chance that the Japanese anime will be renewed for another season.
Similar to the previous two seasons, the third season of World Trigger was well received by anime fans. In fact, for some fans, Season 3 is, so far, the best season of the entire show. Initially, Toei Animation planned two release a second cour of the second season, but instead, they decided to go with a whole new season of World Trigger (Via: Monster and Critics). However, everything turned out well for the studio as the new season is currently sitting at 8.22/10 rating based on 10,000+ votes on the Anime list.
So, honestly, it would be crazy for Toei Animation to give up on the series after only three seasons.
Also, several reports suggest that Season 3 adapted the story until Volume 22 of the manga. So far, 24 volumes of World Trigger have been published, so the studio has enough material to give us another season of the anime series.
Is There a Release Date for World Trigger Season 4?
Of course, we'll have to wait for any official confirmation from Toei to know the release date for the next season. However, if the studio does plan to bring back the series, we might get a new season by the end of 2022 or in the first half of 2023.
The studio released the third season of World Trigger only a few months after finishing Season 2. So, if the episode count of next season remains under 15, the studio might not take more than a year to bring the show back to us.
