THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This turned out to be more interesting than I thought it would be. They basically turned a hero's work into a type of contest or sport. Kotetsu is a pretty entertaining main character too and the other heroes don't seem that bad either. Well I think I'll check out a few other shows before deciding whether to follow this or not. I mainly only watched the first episode because I didn't want to do my homework anyway >.> Modified by Monochrome, 04-02-11, 2:35 PM |

It's product placement, the anime :3 With that being said, it's not that terrible in actuality. Apart from the dodgy cell shaded CGI, it's well animated. It's actually quite funny, a semi mix of The Incredibles and Death Race of all things. Surprisingly good. Modified by KillerYandere, 04-02-11, 4:39 PM |

There's going to be bromance and older guys victimized by capitalism? I'm in. As long as the 'bunny' dude doesn't hog the glory. |

For a first episode it was pretty good, but the first half was very very first episode-ish.. because of aaaalll of those intros. I think the next episode will really establish the feel of the rest of the anime, because right now it can go any way. |

That was a pretty kickass first episode. The part with Kotetsu buying 10 of his own card sealed the deal for me. I thought the sponsorship thing would have been more annoying than it actually ended up being. As it was, it works with the themes the show is going for. |

Pretty good first episode, yeah. Hopefully I'll have time to cram this into my anime schedule, lot of shows to keep track of this season. |

Pretty good! Kotetsu seems like an interesting main character. Barnaby is... Well, his hair at least is a little too disco era for me. |

Really wasn't expecting it to be so good. Definitely had a Incredibles feel to it. I love the ED song, very catchy....Look forward to this series |

Based on the trailer, I wasn't expecting to get any kind of serious story here, so it was pleasant surprise. It's a fun concept and it was executed well. I'll be following this one. |

Truthfully, the only reason I'm watching this show is because Minako Kotobuki is in it, lol. But I'm hoping it's going to turn out good. I decided to watch the hulu stream, since I don't think this show is worth downloading. dem ads. Being legal hurts. I don't mind the product placement in the show, it's kind of funny. And the super heroes of this city must really suck if they need that many to get 3 robbers. Hnnngh dat Minako Kotobuki voice for Blue Rose. Seems like this will be a fun role for her. The character also gets an insert song...wonder when the single for that will be released. Tiger is cool, but I already hate that partner guy. Hope he doesn't hog too much of the show. |

Great start! Its quite unexpected to have a guy guy pair. I personally prefer a guy gurl pair but it looks promissing =) |

Really nice start. Found the whole "heroes being sponsored by big corporations" to be quite funny. |

Can't say much that hasn't already been said. Kotetsu is a really intriguing character, and the concept is really novel. The CGI was a bit disappointing, I'll admit, but not anywhere close to making me dislike the show. I really hope that they explore the dichotomy of corporate sponsorship with heroic duty. Actually, I'm having flashbacks to Captain Amazing from Mystery Men. I wonder... |

I like the somewhat old-school drawing style. ![]() |

Well, I'm definitely going to need to watch more episodes of this before I decide whether I like it or not It could really go either way at this point. |
