I think that's the first time I've ever seen a car chase in anime...well except for death note. A good car chase?, you should look Ex-Driver or the episode from you are under arrest, when natsuke chase the yellow Lancia HF delta on the rain, or look at Initial D |

| Better than the first EP... they're trying!! >_< I think this is on it's way up. 2nd 1/2 of the ep (for the most part) was win. |

noteDhero said: ^Best post.Meh, this show isn't good. I don't really see a positive thing about it. There are negatives, but they all have to do with the fact that this is mediocre...except for Nanami chasing after Tony and the plutonium switcheroo. Those are just bad. As far as this keeping up with American cartoons, Batman the Brave and the Bold, and Spectacular Spider Man are critically acclaimed super hero shows from the past few years, so I saying it's on par with them is just wrong. And the reason is this: American adaptations of superhero shows aren't all that episodic. They're serialized. There's always some current of a story following through. The only example of a good superhero cartoon that isn't is Batman the Brave and the Bold, and that went super campy. Iron Man does neither. It's cheesy in a 1990s anime sort of way with the music, dialogue, characterization, and format; It's not all that funny; and rather than really do something that felt like they took their time to make something keeping the universe intact, they just do a cheap port. There's zero intelligence in the way the show is done, and for a show about one of the Marvel Universe's smartest men, it's a let down. I think some people are overemotional about the graphics. They're really not that bad, and the action is okay, but as for the actual story and concept, yeah it's really cheap. Not full blown awful, just cheap and nothing really special. |

| While the episode was pathetic as expected. I laughed the entire time. I'm glad Japan is getting it's well-deserved revenge . |
| That's my fault. I totally forgot about his being a producer. My point was that he's not the writer for the movies and doesn't do treatments for the screenplays. I also want to point out that being a producer is different than working at Marvel. He doesn't represent the company's interests at all, but his own. He has produced most of the comic book films regardless of whether or not they're owned by Marvel Studios. And in the case of this show, Lee has nothing to do with it. |
| Well, this episode was So Okay It's Average. I have a feeling this series is going to okay, but not especially good. Also, what is up with Nanami's face?  Sometimes it gets to Kaiji levels. :P |
 |
| The reporter chick is annoying as fuck. |
| Well this was better than the first episode but still lacks something >_> And yes the CG still sucks but its not bad, but the plot seems pretty typical at this point, this show is fine as a stand alone series just forget about the Iron Man you knew and watch this lol... Will continue watching for now. |
| Well, I liked this more than episode 1, it was less boring, but Cancer was about as interesting a villain as Scorpio was. I hope we get some cooler villains later. But Tony transforming in his car was cool. And who's that dude on the motorcycle? He got on my nerves. |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| Awesome episodes...the in-car suit-up was fantastic! And, the hand-to-hand with Cancer was freaking BA!!! It's nice to see Iron Man fight with more than just RT, Matt Fraction should take a note from this episode. But, I agree with malvarez1, the villains have been pretty generic so far. But, whatever that thing the Motorcylce guy was looking at at the end looked pretty cool. I'm so glad I waited for the dub for this show, it's turning out to be great already. Urahara Out!! |
 |
| Pretty average and the CG Iron Man sticks out like a thumb hit by a hammer. In other words it sticks out like a sore thumb. |

| a car transformation was cool. |
 |
| Lol, the reporter girl reminded me of Sandra Bullock in the movie speed. I expected the mix up with the box when I saw her holding it while driving the scooter. |
 |
| Still liking the way the suit is looking but this ep was decent again not hating it but not loving the show either but liking it as of now. |
 |
| Soooo many lines!! The car chase scene was weird and why would the crooks think hiding plutonium in a camera box would not be suspicious? Too many city damage as well. It's alright messing up New York but not Tokyo. That's just rude. "Here's one way to cure cancer!" and the car transformation were the only forgivable scenes in this episode. Anyways, I would have never guessed that Japanese dude in charge was planning something! *sarcasm* I can't wait to finish this so I can never look back. |
 |
| Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm , 2 episodes in and I feel like deleting this anime already. Oh what the hell, 10 more episodes left ! |
 |
| Ugh, the action and the music is decent but everything else is terrible especially everything involving the reporter, I cannot stand her at all that includes dialogue, actions pretty much everything is so cringe-inducing with that character. |
| Great development, I really like where this is going! |
