Tamakoma Second vs. Ōji Squad vs. Ikoma Squad Best Anime World Trigger Rank Wars
Kunichika, Kitazoe, and Toma are the commentators for Round 6 of the Rank Wars, with cityscape A as the map. This map doesn't possess any outstanding features, with no terrain to give an advantage. The teams are all transmitted with agents from Ikoma Squad being closer to each other.
Along with the snipers, Osamu activates his bagworm. Oji guesses that Osamu is the one hiding and continues to target him as planned. His squad begins to methodically comb the areas where Osamu could be found. First, Agent Kashio finds Ikoma squad's sniper, Oki. He chooses not to fight, as his sole target is Osamu.
Captain Oji realizes that he will soon cross paths with Kuga. At first, he believes that Kuga is covering Osamu's location, but he realizes it's a trap for him to get sniped by Chika. Kurauchi catches up with him and they discuss the possible trap. He contacts Kashio and directs him to head to the southeast - Osamu's probable location.
Kuga realizes that Oji Squad didn't fall for his trap. Osamu is setting up his spider traps and figures out that a member from Oji Squad has activated their bagworm and is probably searching for him.
The scene switches to Ikoma Squad, where Ikoma expresses confusion at more people going off-radar. Mizukami explains that they are probably hunting for either Amatori or Osamu and warns Kai that he could end up falling into a trap if he isn't careful. Kai activates his bagworm, which Osamu notices. Soon, both Kashio and Kai find the wires, showing that Osamu is close by. Kashio alerts his squad, and Yuma warns Osamu that his location is compromised. Both Kuga and Chika rush to Osamu's location to help him.
Realizing he's trapped, Osamu fires an asteroid, and both Kashio and Kai see it. They rush to the location of the shots only to find each other instead of Osamu, forcing them to face off.
Watching the match, Kunichika and Toma commend Osamu's decision, while he expresses determination that he'll never allow himself to be taken out without doing anything to help again.
Kashio fires Hound at Kai and they both battle with Kogetsu. Meanwhile, Osamu hides in nearby houses and plans his next move. The other two members of the Oji Squad are between him and Kuga if he heads north. If he goes southeast, he'll end up out of bounds. He chooses to go west, which would put Ikoma Squad between himself and Oji.
Oji correctly guesses Osamu's plan. He and Kurauchi continue to chase him while also heading toward Kashio to meet up at the same time. While battling Kai in the middle of Osamu's wires, Kashio slowly loses ground. Kai gains confidence and doesn't pay attention to the rest of the Oji Squad closing in. Their operator Mario warns him that he's now in Kurauchi's range. At the same time, Kurauchi fires off a Salamander. In the destruction that follows, Kashio fights back and Kai is taken out, giving the first point to Oji Squad.
Back in the squad room, Mario yells at Kai for not being careful. Ikoma chimes in that their selling point is that they are a four-man crew. Without that, they only have Oki's popularity with the girls.
In the commentators' booth, Kunichika remarks that Oji's squad is tracking Osamu as if they could see him. Kitazoe explains that this is because Osamu and Oji have a similar thought process. Toma says that Tamakoma has realized this already. The scene switches to Kuga catching up with their group and attacking Kashio.
He cuts off Kashio's arm, and while they are distracted, Chika shoots Kurauchi in the leg with a lead bullet. Toma comments that Tamakoma knew that Oji Squad relied on their quick running and going for the leg was a smart choice. Oji squad attempts to retreat, but Kuga uses grasshopper to block them.
Oji squad and Kuga look back in surprise as Ikoma appears and activates his special whirlwind move with Kogetsu. Kuga barely manages to block it and receives a wound, though it's not enough for him to bail out. Ikoma expresses surprise that they're all still standing. Mizukami tells him to try again, and he does.
The audience admires this display of the "Ikoma whirlwind," while Kunichika explains why it's special to Toma and Kitazoe. Most Kogetsu users take one second to activate the whirlwind and can extend the slash for 15 meters. Ikoma, however, can activate it in 0.2 seconds and can extend the slash 40 meters. He is the only one in Border who can perform this move.
In the fight, Oji and Kurauchi decide to attack Kuga while he is pinned between them and Ikoma squad, and they both fire Hound at him. While Kuga blocks, Ikoma and Mizukami go after Oji Squad as payback for defeating Kai. Mizukami yells, "Asteroid," as he fires shots, but when they dodge they realize that he'd used Hound instead. They block the shots, but Ikoma fires another whirlwind as they're in the air.
