Having taken out three of the city's heroes, it's finally Barnaby's turn to take on Jake and try to avenge his parents... oh, and to save a few million people from certain death, of course. While Barnaby takes to the stage as the latest opponent to the maniacal Jake, behind the scenes a plan is in action to disable the radio link to the mechanised robots which are in place to destroy the pillars

When Tiger showed up out of nowhere to catch Barnaby, that was really lame. I laughed out loud; it looked like a cheap employee bonding moment: “Now, guys, I want you to turn away from your partner and fall back. … Continue reading →

And wit this we conclude the first half of Tiger & Bunny. This episode was… interesting, because it wasn’t exactly the best episode of the TV-series. Because the previous episodes built it up so meticulously this episode pretty much did everything you’d expected, without much surprises aside from Kotetsu using his head again. It’s good [...]

Wow, we're over halfway through the series. This week's episode concludes the Jake Martinez arc. I feel that it is a pretty feel-good episode to finish it up; I definitely prefer this format over the episodic Criminal of the Week. Though, those episodes seem to provide character development, so I don't mind them too much. I guess I should touch on something that has been on my mind for the

Warning, spoilers ahead. But then, this blog has always been spoiler filled. We live in an age where people (read: the audience) don’t like figuring out things for themselves and angrily point fingers at the people who refuse to give them answers. This is why Tiger & Bunny is such a huge breather. It’s simple, [...]

The day that fabulousness lost to mullets We’re at the halfway mark! (For both my summer courses and for this show!) Taigs & Buns has been proudly flaunting homolust and crazy hero shenanigans for 12 episodes now! By episode 24, Barnaby and Kotetsu will have already had their honeymoon at this rate. For now, the [...]

There’s a certain simplistic charm to the latest Tiger & Bunny. It feels somewhat nostalgic to watch a seemingly invincible villain pick off the heroes one by one on some stage and broadcasting it to the world. The scenario wasn’t … Continue reading →

Aww man, I’m completely disappointed in Tiger right now. He was the character I liked the most, yeah he is probably the most useless and joke character in the anime, but he stuck to his ideals of what a hero should be and managed to change the other heroes if only a bit. But this [...]

We are nearing the midseason climax as this episode picks up where we were left off last week. Tensions ran high during this week's installment as we get our fair share of drama and watch our lovable heroes getting their asses handed to them. The drama is set up right at the beginning of the episode. Thanks to Origami Cyclone, the heroes know the location of Ouroboros' hideout and decide

If you’re looking for action, well this epsiode has plenty of it, though unfortunetly for the Heroes of Tiger & Buuny, they are at the receiving end of it by Jake. I thought that this epsidoe was interesting as this episode showed the rift between the lack of trust between Tiger & Bunny in this [...]

This episode was depressing to watch. I mean, it was almost completely one-sided the way in which some of the best heroes were just pummeled down like it was nothing. This episode did make sure to not god-mode that villain, and an obvious turning point was built up for the next episode, but damn: this [...]

Come the end of last week's episode of Tiger & Bunny, Origami Cyclone seemed to be in rather a tight spot as the infiltrator of the recently released Jake Martinez's secret hideout, and this indeed proves to be the case as episode twelve kicks off. Despite having been found out, his sterling efforts have at least revealed the home of said secret hideout, and while the powers that be wait for a

Episode 10 One of the things that really pulled this episode down was the story telling. I’m not a big fan of contrived coincidences when used to create a plot point, and boy did this episode have a big one. So the day that Barnaby [randomly] remembers who his killer is, happens to be the day that Ouroboros makes their move to free said killer from jail, which is also the day when Kotetsu is finally going to visit his daughter on his day off, and on his way there he ...

It’s been a busy week and because of that, the stuff I have to blog about ended up piling up. So I decided to blog about the episodes I enjoyed the most first. Ao no Exorcist 09 AnE really stepped it up this week. This was an incredible episode. I’d say that in terms of [...]

The hostage? the entire city. You’ll have to forgive me for the two-in-one post this time around. I got incredibly caught up in E3 and didn’t get a chance to blog good old Taigs and Buns before the next episode would air. School doesn’t really help matters, nor does expending so much energy at the [...]

Instead of what I thought would be an Origami Cyclone-centric episode, this episode was more focused on the the decision making process by the higher-ups of Sternbild. This episode wasn't very exciting and was filled with a lot of low quality drawings, but I just can't bring myself to hate a T&B episode because of how much I love the characters, Kotetsu in particular. Dat quality. I honestly

If you’re looking for action then you are in the wrong place, as this week’s epsidoe of Tiger & Bunny is filled with tension and plot development. As I’m a Origami Cyclone fan, I thought it was cool for him to step out from the background and into the fore-front,by going under cover in this [...]

Yep, that’s right, ‘The Die is Cast’ was just fine. For a ramp-up episode, i.e. moving the chess pieces into place for (hopefully) the good stuff next week, ‘The Die is Cast’ isn’t a bad episode. It wasn’t boring despite … Continue reading →
