One Minute Wild Tiger. Oh man. He's embarrassing yet awesome. Uncool yet much admired. A hero through and through - and to the very end.
Lunatic was on mop-up duty. I hope he's more involved in the future. Hopefully Saito will make that megaphone helmet a regular thing (nice to finally understand him the past few episodes). I'll keep cheering on Karina.
A lot of cheese, but nice ending. And it wouldn't really be T&B without the cheese. Looking forward to a second season.

I'm surprised at how anti-climatic the series finale was. At least the second half of it anyway. I'm also glad Kotetsu lived and how he lampshaded the fact that no one bothered to check his pulse. I couldn't help but cheer when he rose and punched the crap out of Maverick. After Maverick's death the rest of the episode went downhill to a degree. I was a little disappointed to see Tiger back as a second rate hero-- it almost feels as if the series went full circle.

Anyway, Sunrise certainly did leave the door open for a second season. I'll be waiting for that news and the news of a North American release. I definitely want this show on DVD. Anyway, I gave Tiger & Bunny a personal score of 9/10. It was a bit cliché at times but still managed to be somewhat unique and very entertaining. Good times indeed.

Wow, this was probably the worst episode, too many ASSPULLS....just too many. Cliches went off the wall, and once again the explanations just fell off. The way they "revived" Tiger was absolutely terrible, including the suit signal explanation. Really disappointed, but a season 2 makes it hopeful they can come with better material next time. Like someone else said, the first 21-22 episodes were AMAZING, then it started to fall off. Maybe if they get some time to rethink, they can return to the awesomeness that was Tiger and Bunny.

The only thing I really liked was that we are shown that even 2 YEARS after this series started, Karina is STILL hungry for some Kotetsu loving, and as a Karina X Kotetsu shipper. this is excellent news for me. And she should be 18 now, so their is NO more barriers, all you anti Blue Rose and Tiger shippers can SUCK IT lol.


I think having the suit mostly destroyed is a pretty good explaination for the life sign signal not working.

Also you're forgetting that Kotetsu is twice Blue Rose's age and the creators have stated multiple times that her crush is simply not meant to go any further then just a crush.

I'm glad they made Kotetsu a second rate hero anyway. This way, he can spend more time with his daughter and not have to break so many promises, but he can keep doing what he loves to do.

Liked the finale, it was pretty much everything I wanted to happen. Though they could have wrapped up on another plot point or two and not left it to season 2.

Not impressed...

I'm much too tired to write all the things I disliked in this episode, but I'm kinda disappointed Kotetsu didn't retire. Also, him randomly "reviving" to save Kaede right at the right moment could have been good if they executed it better. Kaede felt so out of place in this episode. This episode felt like a finale episode put together upon seeing the series was selling well... make way for the second season, scrap the planned ending! I still love the show an will watch anything else they put out, though.

There were some good ideas here, like Kaede finally telling Kotestu he was cool, but I feel they could have been executed so much better. Also, wtf at the strange cut from a high action hero chase to Bunny crying over his parents, then right back to the heroes... wtf.

Lunatic bustin' up in there to fuck up shit was EPIC, but then it ended as soon as it started. I finally went all "FUCK YEAH", only for the best moment to just... end.

Eh, honestly way too tired to type this out. 6/10 finale, 8.5/10 anime. It fell off a bit in the final episodes. :/

Good ending. Definitely hoping for season 2.

But one thing that disappoints me is that they ended it without revealing anything about Scarf-tan. I was hoping that at the very least she would have a name by the time the series ended. If they do make a second season they better give her a bigger role.

I thought it was interesting that she walked by right before the dollar fell in the water to reveal the ouroboros symbol. Interesting because one of the theories floating around about her was that she was part of ouroboros. Probably just a coincidence.

Finally, one of my most favourite shows of this season ended (I prefer this to Steins;Gate =))) The are problems left to be solve in the next season, like Ouroboros, Lunatic... My god, Lunatic is sooooo cool until the very end. I do love this kind of anti-hero who mercilessly kill his opponents. Hope that they will let him have a bigger role in the future.
Well done, Sunrise. You should stop exploiting Gundam and make more shows like this.

THAT WAS PRETTY SATISFYING.

Though I don't like that Tiger /still/ didn't get the recognition he deserved, I loved everything else.

And even if it was a bit cheesy and predictable. It was much more enjoyable than most anime I recently (or ever) watched.
I loved this show and all It's characters! I loved Kotetsu as a protagonist. He was such a breath of fresh air in every way.

The ending was satisfying but somewhat lacking... but im fine with this because last episode was some form of anouncement that 2nd season will happen for sure.

T&B was somewhat cliched but really entertaining. Kotetsu is a really great character and cant wait for his role in 2nd season. Im the only one that thought that there were quite a few hidden yaoish moments between Kotetsu and Barnaby lol ?

T&B was a hidden gem in this season and really underrated so im gonna give this 9/10 overall.

OMG, the crying scene with Barnaby, Kaede and then Karina all bursting into tears and hugging Kotetsu (and he's still completely clueless about Karina's feelings X) Lol at Karina reading 100 ways to make a single father fall for you)))

I'm glad Kotetsu found his own unique answer to the problem of his declining power, one in his own style - ridiculous yet admirable, but in the second season his power needs to return, no matter how cliche its return is going to be, otherwise it's not going to be as fascinating as the first season. His declining power is the only thing that left an unpleasant aftertaste in the sea of awesomeness that is Tiger&Bunny.

And yeah, the second season needs to happen.

Why didn't they just have Kaede touch his arm or hand and then reverse the mind wipe?!

In the end it was a nice happy ending I suppose, I really was wondering the same thing as Tiger... did they ever check his pulse? Guess not... idiots.

I was so happy Lunatic killed off Maverick, the old bastard deserved a firey death, and he got it, so Lunatic has become even more awesome in my mind now.

Karina at the end reading, 100 ways to make a single father fall for you was funny, though I wonder if her friends turned around to see what she was reading so intently... lol.

I was sad to see Tiger in the lower leagues, I would have preferred retirement, it would of ended his career on a high... I'm guessing in season two his powers will return, or those red/orange eyes he showed when we first find out about his decrease in powers plays some part, remember Jake had the same eyes, meaning he was either declining (unlikely) or it was due to two powers.

I liked it that Kaede finally found her dad cool, it made me smile because that's been his dream I guess, he doesn't need anyone else to think he is cool, as long as his daughter thinks so.

When Tiger was hugged by Kaede, Barnaby and Karina I smiled, still Karina's cry "Tiger" was funny... I know it was meant to be emotional so the crying was fine but still I just found how it was pronounced funny.

The ending with that note showing the Ouroboros emblem is obviously hinting towards their bigger role in Series 2 I guess, besides I found how Maverick gave in at the end strange, as if he himself was also being controlled, and once that was taken away he became a vegetable, so perhaps he too was being controlled all along, or more so his body was being controlled, maybe he was a vegetable and Ouroboros did something to him.... and everything else he thought about himself was fabricated.

In the end I'll give this series a 10, it doesn't deserve it, it deserves a high score but probably not a 10, but since I found it so enjoyable I'll rank it a 10 just from that.

Karina x Kotetsu.... yeah :), sorry Yaoi fangirls, Barnaby and Kotetsu are just best friends :P

Am I the only one that noticed that Fire Emblem is the one that wrote 100 ways to make a single father fall for you? It's like hw wrote it to Karina haha

Overall, the anime was VERY entertaining. Unfortunately, they started using too many clichê and incredible coincidences at the end.

As much as I liked Lunatic's episode, it could've been left for the second season, since he didn't have much to do in this one. And we could've had a Bison episode.

As for the last episode, it was pretty good, considering where it came from. I mean, Agnes had a smart plan, they gave reasonable reasons for Tiger's "ressurection", the wya they handle the robots was also good... The only problem was when Maverick got Kaede. There were 7 heroes and a helicopter there and they couldn't find him? And Kaede just stood there all the time without doing anything?

Waiting for the 2nd season

Awesome ending for and awesome show. Tiger is still being a hero after all the declining power problem.

Lunatic was late. :C Maverick actually looked pitiful when he looked at Lunatic with his hangover face.

And Origami Cyclone was pretty awesome on this episode. His shurikens look cool!

And sweet! A 2nd season! I hope there would be more Lunatic screentime.

I actually liked the explanations for Tiger's resurrection, it was funny.

"Don't kill me off!"
"You didn't check my pulse!?"

Those are the kind of lines I was hoping to get from the majority of the series, but that didn't happen.

Lunatic appearing at the end to kill Maverick. So, that's all Lunatic for for? Couldn't have shown up earlier? Maverick was pitiful at that point, it wasn't even satisfying to FINALLY see Lunatic again.

GREAT!!! I'm actually quite angry at myself for not watching this episode earlier... but hey, i loved this ep, how kotetsu just ROSE from the dead!!!

At the end (well, arc end) Marverick did erase his own memeories, giving us some conspriacy, and some more ideas for a second season! And also, that dollar ending did re-affirm that ouroburos are realy deep group, i mean, finding that on a dollar isn't regular, you know!?

But anyways, loved this episode, will miss the cast, and that xtra girl ( you know... the one which is in "the background") which i think made this season EPIC! :P

Asspulls and obvious pandering. Typical Sunrise.

The second half of this show was absolutely terrible with the angst and other bullshit. I really liked this show in the beginning, but Sunrise unsurprisingly fucked it up like they always do. 7/10 I guess...it was better than average overall but the second half left a bad taste in my mouth.

tiger and bunny ,one of the best this season
though this may be the worst episode since its the last episode and theres nothing much to do other than burn maverick and pave way for the next season
is it me or paolin looked quite cute in a dress
i loled at karina reading "100 ways to make a single father fall for you"(over 40000 copies sold...) im guessing her new song is probably a love song
Wild Tiger 1 Minute, you couldnt even cook cupnoodles with that
im just happy that theres a second season

cant wait for the next season, i hope theres more scenes for kaede and some development for karina and tiger and recovery or change in tigers power?

Thanks for putting up the girl with the scarf... I never really payed attention. I wonder if shes going to actually play a part in season two or just stay as one of those things that animes have.... repeating random doesn't really mean anything characters...

Maverick probably erased his own memories due to not wanted to expose Oroboros. He might not even be the boss.. just another underling...
Since the logo appeared on the dollar bill perhaps it goes as far as the government..

The first half of this episode was great, i love it, yeah it was cliche to the bone but it was very good, the epilogue on the second half on the other hand i think it was pretty lame until the uroboros logo on the money. i cant wait for the 2nd season.

Edit: oh yeah, i just love the KarinaXKotetsu moments <3 i dont care what fuyoshis want KxK must happen on 2nd season.

Loved the ending with Tiger trying to be a hero despite all odds.

As for next season (which the ending and "NEXT event" screams), I'd really like to see him not get a second power, and it be more of him using his skills, experience, and gadgets to be a hero (He did pretty well in episode 22). Second power seems too obvious, and it'd be interesting to see him struggle to live up to being a good partner for Bunny.

A pretty good ending, surprisingly. Personally, I prefer the first half of the series to the second but other than some clichés here and there it was an incredibly charming show, thanks to Kotetsu. There was a severe lack of Lunatic though.
Hoping that the second season addresses most of the problems with the first.
