you take a what is pretty much a japanese legend and turn it into a anime and you get this. you have two tigers with the same goal but trying to achieve it in different ways. one picks the more villain like route an the other a more heroic one kind of like a split of the original tiger mask, which started as a villain but saw the effect it had on the children that watched and became the hero.
This show is very outdated and in turn makes me feel like a kid again. but i that a good thing as a viewer yes

Two men fighting. A setup that drives countless fictional stories, and one which Tiger Mask W delivers in spades.
If you are browsing this and ordinarily enjoy a good battle shonen, just go watch Tiger Mask W, you need read no further. Pro wrestling - at least as it's portrayed here - is basically the same thing with more spandex. They still have attacks with cool names and take implausibly large hits, but there are no gruesome deaths or spirit bombs on display, just an occasional "they'll never fight again" killer move to raise the stakes. It's a Toei series, so the quality is typically choppy ... Jul 12, 2017
Wrestling and anime have a lot in common. They are both hobbies looked down upon by society as a large and have most of their fanbase communicate online. They are also full of idiots and elitists hating on “normies” and “casuals”.
Story: As far as I could find out, this anime is a sequel to the original Tiger Mask, but ignores other sequels to it. Since the original is solely available in Japanese, I have no idea how this one correlates with it, so let’s just judge it as a show on its own. A young guy named Naoto picks up the moniker of Tiger Mask to ... Sep 22, 2017
As a pro-wrestling fan, I started watching for Okada and Tanahashi's appearances - not even knowing there would be so much more, with a lot of the NJPW roster showing up, and even some non-japanese ones.
I stayed because, in the first episode, Tiger Mask trained by fighting and eating a bear. There's also semi-naked mountain climbing. With bare hands. In the freezing cold. There's a room for training full of old school robots, because of course it has. There's a mysterious evil corporation bent on conquering the world of pro-wrestling, and a fair, preternaturally gifted protagonist looking to avenge his master - and a long ... Mar 10, 2018
Alright, as a wrestling and anime fan, i feel the need to review this show. (First review ever, so dont judge too harshly. or dont. who cares.)
So, Tiger Mask W. Whoof. This series had some massive ups and downs. As a wrestling fan (particularly NJPW) it had a lot of good fanservice, but that's almost it's downfall. I feel like one of the selling points of TMW is that it has so many references to real-life wrestlers, but if you're not at least tangentially aware of who these people are (Kazuchika Okada, Hiroshi Tanahashi) you're gonna miss a lot of content. Okada's first appearance in ... Nov 23, 2024
if you like wrestling, you'll probably enjoy it, even tho they mention the original tiger mask from time to time, you can watch this without prior knowledge of the original series, the story it's not that grade, i'll even say that in some chapters it feels like they lost the plot or the sense of urgency, i loved every minute of it, specially the chapters where they fight in the countryside, my biggest problem with this series it's okada, he gotta be the biggest fraud i've ever seen in an anime, all that glacing about being the njpw heavyweight champion, and just one or two
