12 ꧋ In🧸ferno Cop

Welcome To Hell, Loser

Inferno Cop is an oddball adventure that feels a lot like Ghost Rider, if Ghost Rider was a cop who couldn't give a single hoot about anything except for beatin' bad guys, bein' awesome, and gettin' revenge on the evil cult of the Southern Cross.

The show is very self-aware, and the limited animation style lends the entire experience a sense of humor that is tough to outdo, with Inferno Cop beating... well, the 'hell' out of everything from newborn babies to an 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:entire apocalypse's worth of zombies over the course of 13 episodes.

No matter what, I'll make sure you stay in hell!

11 Little🏅 Witch Academia: The Enchanted Parade

Feel Good Magic With A Trigger Twist

Little Witch Academia started when Yoh Yoshinari, mech designer for Neon Genesis Evangelion, decided to make a cute little short film which even𒁃tually turned into a movie and a 24 episode TV a⭕nime. That being said, the movie is still the best the series has ever been.

Little Witch Academia: The Enchanted Parade sees a lovable cast of magical school outcasts team up with a group of troublemakers in order to make the school's annual magic festival a success. The animation is wildly expressive, and the characters are charming and memorable.

10 ꦡ Ninja Slayer From Animation

A Solemn Ninja Out For Revenge

Ninja Slayer feels a lot like Inferno Cop, but with everything that made that show what it was getting pushed even farther. The end result is far and away 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the funniest anime Studio Trigger has ever made, with a dash of edgy humor and ironi🐷c satire just for good mea🍬sure.

Ninja Slayer features the same style of animation seen in Inferno Cop, and ♐follows anཧ equally edgy story about a man who made a deal with an evil ninja spirit in order to take revenge on his murdered family.

9 Darlingಌ In The Franxx

Mechs, Drama, And The End Of The World

Sure, the story does get a bit confusing toward the end, but the series still manages to say a lot about population decline and the state of the world. Plus, it introduced us to one of anime's most iconic and beloved characters: the pink-haired and red-horned Zero Two.

Set in a unique dystopian future and lush with rich world-building, Darling In The Franxx's lore, characters, and highly expressive mech animation immediately captivated audiences back in 2018, and it's still one of Studio Trigger's most unique productions.

I think I've taken a liking to you...Won't you be my darling?

8 🃏 BNA: Brand New Animal 🌼

Crime, Grime, And Animal Fur

BNA is one of the more expressively animated Studio Trigger works. The concepts and ideas on display in this action 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:mystery series are presented with incredible confidence and a distinct sense of style, and that's especially true of the show's quirky tanuki lead, Michiru.

It might be style over substance for the most part, but when this series gets going, it really gets going. When humans begin mysteriously transforming into animals, the regular ♔world exiles the animal-humans to a specialized city where crime is rampant and corruption runs deep.

7 🙈 Space Patrol Luluco

Fight For Justice!

In a world where aliens are commonplace, a typical anime hဣeroine named Luluco just wants to be normal, but when her dad, a space police officer, accidentally eats confiscated contraband, he becomes entrapped in ice. Luluco must join the Space Patrol in order to set him free.

A short, bombastic celebration of everything the studioܫ had made up until that point, Space Patrol Luluco is out of this world. Less devout Trigger fans might not get as much out of the experience, but for those in the know, this will quickly become an all-time favorite.

6 Kiznaiver

One For All. All... For... One.

Kiznaiver is more tonally serious than Studio Trigger tends to get, but with results this captivating, it kind of makes us wish the studio would tackle 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:heavier stories more often. Featuring a quirky cast of characters and some very heavy implications, you'll be thinking about this one for a long time.

The story follows a group of unlikely friends, brought together by a shared sense of pain connected to a mysterious scar. As they learn more abou🌊t the origins of their pain and each other, the city they live in gradually begins to lift the veil on its darkest secrets.

One of the hardest things to do is🐼 to throw away all the truths you ༺were taught about life and accept them as lies.

5 Promare

Trigger's Over The Top Theatrical Outing

Promare was Studio Trigger's first theatrical film, and the excitement behind the production is evident from the very first frame. In true Trigger fashion, the story is all over the place, aliens are involved, the characters are loud and expressive, and the animation is over the top.

With little nods and references to the studio's previous works alongside some truly stellar designs and action scenes, Promare is as Trigger as it gets, and is worth watching on the biggest screen you can possibly find for maximum effect.

4 ♑ Delicious In Dunge📖on

Why Don't We Just Eat The Monsters?

While shows like Toriko and Made in Abyss emphasized eating fantasy monsters in the past,𒊎 none have taken the theme to quite this level. The story revolves around a group of misfit adventurers on a quest to rescue a fallen party member, eating as much as they𓄧 can on the way there.

The series' impressive world-building and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:tasty-looking food are presented with delightfully lo-fi animation, and while it's a little less extreme than you might expect from a Trigger show, Delicious In Dungeon is still one of the studio's tastiest offerings.

3 SSSS.Gridman 💮

Glorious Tokusatsu Action

For fans of tokusatsu classics like Godzilla and Ultraman, look no farther than Studio Trigger's lively revival of the Denkou Choujin Gridman series, as well as its equally entertaining sequel: SSSS.Dynazenon.

The anime follows an amnesiac protagonist as he struggles to understand his destiny, regain his memories, and battle some 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:truly iconic kaiju threats with🐭 the aid of Hyper Agent Gridman and his classmates. One of the most successful Trigger outings, SSSS🔯.Gridman also received an anime film, Gridman Universe, in 2023.

You're not alone. Whenever, forever.
