Last November, the producer of the hero anime Tiger & Bunny has announced that there would be at least two movies of it. Now, the first one TIGER & BUNNY-The Beginning has been officially confirmed to be released on September 22nd, 2012!


In the first movie, the plot will be tightly tied to the TV anime, and there will be another storyline “Behind Story”, or officially called “HYBRID EPISODE”. In other words, the whole story is likely going to be consisted of the mainline plot and a side story.


The second movie is already under consideration and planned to come out in 2013.


good luck everybody. i hope you enjoy this news . (show less)

After seeing this anime everywhere (Kinokuniya, tumblr, cosplay, etc.) I finally decided I had to figure out what exactly was going on. I'm glad that I did.

Tiger & Bunny is an all around great anime. The art is good, the CG is great, there is a good amount of variety in characters, it has good Seiyuu's, and while most of the time it has a fun action packed tone to it, there is a more mature undertone to the characters and back story. I felt like there were enough characters, but not too many, and we got a good amount of airtime with the side characters, while not taking away from the main plot line. The dynamic between "Tiger" and "Bunny" is great, with their banter back and forth being very much amusing.

I think one of the best factors of T&B is the main character. While most anime out there usually stars a pretty 17ish girl/boy who's either too happy or too serious (and I personally am generally annoyed by), I felt like T&B was a nice refreshing change. Kotetsu "Wild Tiger" is a 30-something father, down on his luck hero. He's not perfect, he screws up, and by all rights he should be a raging jerk, but he's not. Throughout the story you get to see exactly how much depth his character has, and by the end of the series I found myself adding him to my favourite characters list.

Tiger & Bunny isn't perfect, it does have flaws (just like any other anime), but it's definitely worth a shot. :D (show less)

This anime doesnt strike as one that is great but it is.

Its story is slow moving at first and tackles a subject that we all enjoy but is severly lacking in anime... Hero-city situation. The story is about a Hero who is fighting to reclaim a lot of his former prestige while he now works with an upcomming hero with a dark past. This contrast between the two characters brings out a commoradery while working with the other characters and opening many twists and turns. I think the thing I love most about the story is how it works. Unlike other anime it doesnt show any signs of first of having a general plot and is more each case independantly showing how the heros resolve the situation. However even though its more life-like in this sense it doesnt lose any potency and actually doest have an overarcing story that comes through overall which I find wonderfuly fantastic.

The dialogue is sharp with every character showing thier skills while not being over the top. I will say at least 3 characters are not your average type of voice and add great deapth to its cast.

animation is solid. Its the detail of each shot that earns it the Excellent rating. I find the suits espically detalied and done excellently well.

Entertainment, well to be honest you have to aproach this one open minded... If your looking for a fast paced thriller you might overlook the masterpeice this is. It has a particular charm that kinda drags you in. Im not saying it isnt action oriented but I think it focuses on building story rather than reling on gimics... and one thing is for certain you will hardly ever guess where the story is going next...

At first I wasn't sure what kind of anime this would be considering all summary tells you is that it's about people with super powers and they are on some tv series being "heroes". It sounds ridiculous, but at the same time I thought it did sound a little interesting so I watched the first episode, and then the next, and then the next and so on. Before i knew it I was anxiously awaiting the next episode to air and was completely taken in. The story sounds a bit strange and deviates from the normal action anime in the fact that it's not about some kid who had some hidden power and goes off to live some kind of awesome destiny. This show is about adults with hidden powers! haha, but yea, it is a bit more mature in the sense that they are just trying to make a living and if they so happen to save the city to make that living, then so be it.

This was a really awesome anime that was done very well. I hope many people watch it and get as much enjoyment out of it as I have. (show less)
