Did anyone else notice the really awkward pauses?

Wtf?! Bspoiler[order has its own Rabit?
The Enedora guy is a total psycho.] It was futile to think he would stay in the training room forever. Well, at least it was interesting to watch them fight. Although things don't look very promising.. |

Yeah, I guess they needed a few more seconds of padding. @ookamigirl: That wasn't Border's Rabit, it was Replica's. He just added Border logos to avoid being hit by friendly fire. |

awkward pauses have been a part of this show since the beginning. nothing new there
at the rate the clock is counting down, Osamu will likely finally get back to base by ep 36. only 6 minutes passed between the end of ep 29 to the end of this ep |

Episode 32:
Too bad for Enedra. I don't feel sorry for the bastard at all though and he would of met his end someday anyways. Liked some of the teamwork this episode and I think the snipers should be praised a bit despite the fact that not everything went according to plan. |

Still watching the episode as I type, but this episode definitely has more happening and is more interesting than the previous ones have been (although it still doesn't seem like time is moving much).
I'm timing out the episode, though, to see exactly how much episode vs. "extra stuff" we're getting, and it's not pretty. Although this episode is better than others have been, in terms of the length of at least the narrator's recap was shorter this episode than in past ones (at least, that's what it seemed like). Oooo, that's a neat new ability he's got there... So, by my count, this episode included 15:47 minutes of actual episode, and 7:03 minutes of "extra" (Toei logo, the 2 recaps, the title card, the opening, the eyecatches, the timer and "to be continued," the fun facts, and the preview/credits), out of 22:50 minutes total. That gives us 69.12% episode and 30.88% non-episode. Yeah, that's pretty bad. |

Fight at HQ continues..
Finally! spoiler[Enedora got what he deserved. Looks like even his guys decided to dump him.] The other two black trigger guys are still making trouble. Still, there's not much time left.. |

Lol, is it just me or Miwa even more pissed off than usual? Well anyways, I think someone is going to get their ass kicked next time. The waiting game begins.

Jin making another of his premonitions..
The future keeps shifting. Replica sure is useful. Not much new stuff this time.. Hopefully next episode will be better. |

World Trigger is a great anime but it is so frikkin' frustrating. The pacing is all over the place. Later episodes open with minute after minute of recap and I wonder if they will have time for actual episode. And there is that cutesy recap discussion at the end describing in Sesame Street level exactly what the viewer just watched, wasting even more time that could have gone into story. In the most tense and intense scenes, such as when a special power is used that has a three minutes limit, the character will launch into an exposition about camaraderie, which suddenly cuts into a flashback of a conversation by a drinks machine in the rain. It is like watching a Transformers movie battle that suddenly cuts to a scene from My Dinner With Andre for little to no good reason. Frankly, such jarring corruption of the pacing feels like a punch in the gut. The director may be trying to be avant garde or NGE or something, but it is just wrong headed and nothing that an experienced director would be caught doing. It makes me want to grab someone by the lapels and slam them against a wall and demand what they think they are doing. And the characters are sometimes guilty of the same level of asinine stupidity that appears to be the entire theme of Chaos;HEAd. A character who needs to escape to safety will double back to attack in order to protect the ones who valiantly stayed behind, and then fail miserably, betraying the whole point of covering his back while he tried to escape. That kind of asinine stupidity. World Trigger is a great series (semi-great, not super great but riveting) but these kind of really piss-poor decisions about direction and character throw it off so much in critical moments that all I can do is howl about it in a forum to let off the steam. It is really frustrating.

Episode 34:
The arc feels like it's dragging but I think this week is one of my favorite episodes. We get spotlight from both Yuma and Osamu on their different fronts as they take on their enemies. Some impressive (and not risky) tactics used by both of them too. And as for action, I think it actually captured what I had expected including this scene which is my favorite from the episode: 
This series has more cliffhangers than the Grand Canyon though. |

That was a pretty good episode. Filled up the entire 14 minutes of actual run time with interesting story.
You just can't keep a good Replica down. |

Things are getting more intense.
Replica got hit pretty bad. Osamu isn't in the best situation either.. Kuga was having his own problems. Still, that kid is pretty resourceful. |

Episode 35:
Welp, this Invasion Arc came to a close. I'm proud of what Osamu did in the end tbh. I mean, he risked his life to save his friends and also forced the invaders to leave with some risky thinking; thanks to Replica as well. Now I hope they are prepared to deal with this type of thing in the future. Also hoping the Kako team get some more moments in the future. |
