Interesting 1st episode! And I like Kotetsu. Too bad he was pressured by that new boss.

Kotetsu and Barnaby seem like pretty cool protagonists.

Pretty lovely start I must say! Quite like the overall setting and pacing together with the pretty lovely art and not all too bad CGI! Let's see what happens next!

With all the hero cartoons every which way... this certainly is a "different" take on the whole thing.

I didn't find it to have that great of comedy... but it was ok with the action.

I guess Blue Rose isn't bulletproof. ...popular by design...

It's a little childish and silly but I got used to it.

Kotetsu is a breath of fresh air. Finally a main character who isn't a damn teenager. I have a feeling I'm going to really like him.

The CG is a bit of an eyesore but I'll get over it soon enough.

I'm curious to see how Barnaby develops.

Solid first episode.

7/10 Pretty entertaining so far. I'll definitely watch more of this right now!

Great first episode, I really enjoyed it.

Also I'm calling it now, that producer lady is gonna end up being a main villain, or at least associated with one.

great first episode. The cast visually seems pretty colorful and lively. Nice to see a grown main character that has a family. Well at least a daughter the wife seems MIA as of now. I also have a feeling ms broadcast lady is going to turn evil. I like the premise of heroes with ads.

Wo-hoo, I finally started this and it's as good as I expected, although it's not what I expected. Anyway this promises to be a good title, I'm already tuned in for the follow-up.

Underwhelming first episode. Not that fond of the artwork, character designs, over-usage of 3D (even though it doesn't look that badly) and product placements everywhere.

Underwhelmed by my first impression of these superheroes. They needed like 6 guys in special suits with superpowers to catch 3 regular criminals? Lolwat, was that supposed to be a joke?

I also found it very strange how Wild Tiger's mother told him through the phone how their daughter shouldn't know about him being a superhero while she stood in the same room where their daughter was in, unless she moved off-screen during that time.

Overall, not much like to here, and will probably drop it if it doesn't drastically improve in the next couple of episodes. I'll admit, I've never been that much into the superhero genre, but One Punch Man was pretty awesome, so I was hoping I could get into this...

This show is showing much promise. Under the seemingly capitalistic satire are some very realistic themes explored..

In this world, unlike the Incredibles, the overwhelming power of the heroes is plyed with wealth, fame and career advancement.. Now if only a few NEXT showed up, no doubt, the Government would've killed some and locked up some using brute force for experimentation. But in a world where NEXT are popping up everywhere, this universe has decided to utilise the soft approach.

Now NEXT can still find their place in society, ironically with the rise of NEXT criminals, NEXT heroes more than ever prove their worth to society by combating it. It is in the best interest for society if these criminals disappeared, but it is in the worst interest for NEXT heroes.

In this world, heroes did not become society's eternal enemy or scapegoat and shamed and forcibly pushed into normalcy... Haha, this is the funniest and coolest part, they become owned by companies. Their successes are the companies successes and their failures and damages become covered by the companies. What used to pass for, evil powerful demons that needed to be exorcised by mobs of peasants and samurai are now given a full on media make over with celebrity worshipping PR stunts so that society becomes inclined to love them.


I love it.

We've already covered an X-Men universe under Marvel, we've covered the Incredibles take by Pixar. And now the Japanese have rounded everything, the typical 'middle way' nicely with Tiger & bunny.

jesus christ; right from the opening scene there is so much going on the screen. Between all the fast paced action, the on-screen text for the gameshow, and trying to read subtitles that fly by, it's difficult to keep up with everything thats happening at once.

During the first few minutes I was really ready to exit and find something else to watch, I just did not know how to feel about it. But I was totally right to keep watching because i'm already loving the characters so so much. I love that our main role is an older male.

Wth is up with that gay man touching that other guy's booty? Lol, it shocks me that an anime like this would even go that far.
Numbuh 3, you've got to get off the couch, you cannot sit in that tree house, girl you like Rainbow Monkeys so grab your little shit and then swing!

Hand tracks be tracking me to different doorways. In a maze, and I don't know what to do. Guaranteed though, Ima find the emeralds.

I wonder why the new hero would just reveal his identity like that, seems like the opposite of what's good.

My guess is that he wants to let a certain person know that he made it or something along those lines.

An interesting take on the genre. This might not be the best show, but it seems like I'll be entertained and laugh a bit.

The struggle of being a traditional hero in a commercial hell of a society. Lookin good and putting on a show is more interesting than catching criminals. Sometimes I think we really don't deserve nice things xD

I love how well directed the chase was and Hirata Hiroaki aka Sanji's voice for Tiger is a W. Opening suits the mash of modern and flamboyant flair, won't skip this one.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron
