#tiger and bunny 2 cour 2

[sentoind]

Actually. I’m coming back to a previous post about how everyone ignores the end of season two for Tiger & bunny… I’ve actually come to like it and accept it.

(Spoilers below)

However the only things I don’t like and agree with was the… racism and yuri’s ending?!

Like 75% of season 2 cour 2 honestly felt like this. (I had some issues with how they made ouroboros this big organization and what not in season 2 cour 1 continuing into cour 2 but I actually love fugan and mugan actually and they made me feel emotional in comparison to what’s her name again ?) but the 25% of it that was good… was definitely good. While I still wish Thomas’s arc had a bit of tweaking I am satisfied and happy with how he came to start trusting Subaru more (and honestly I won’t really blame him by much because he’s a 17 year old) but asides from that I’m mainly here to talk about kotetsu and barnaby

When I first watched obviously I was extremely sad and kind of in denial that I forgot everything but after rewatching it… I actually grew to like and accept what happened to them because they’ve talked about it many times through the series that they’re still “friends” no matter what and they aren’t just hanging out with each other because of them being partners in crime as heroes. They are quite literally partners for life.

Although we don’t see what happens to them in the end run animated… we do at least see what happens to them in the form of a one shot manga chapter which shows that Barnaby still willingly chooses to follow after and help Kotetsu of his own violation, and Kotetsu still chooses to be a hero to people in his own way even without his powers.

… and again. My main criticism goes towards how Yuri just “dies” (in my mind he pulls what a character from DGS / TGA pulls but I won’t say who or what) and also towards the sudden cartoonish racism? And also having Barnaby who lived only for revenge and finally get a life without it watch was cruel because who knows how he felt about it while watching Lunatic’s last moments. But well I’ll top off my thoughts about season 2 there actually.

[carito-dorito]

yeah it's 2 am and I'm still thinking about tnb2

[ksiezniczkaolya-art]

[victorcrystalgem]

Did you watch cour 2 with your eyes closed

ok final verdict tiger and bunny 2 is really good and a huge improvement on the og HOWEVER. lunatic's ending was bizzare rushed depressing and went against everything his arc was pointing to. like it felt like some hayes code contrived bullshit

Tiger & Bunny Week Day 7/8

Tiger & Bunny Second Series Anniversary

A bit late for this, but I really like Season 2, so I didn't want to miss a chance to talk about it... and luckily the Week had an extra day for catching up! 😅

If I tried to make a list of my favorite moments this would just turn into a massive FireSky post (which is a nice idea, but maybe for some other time). So I decided to go quirky with it: since Season 2 is, especially in its first cour, heavily defined by the Buddy hero system, I picked out my favorite little character moments that are not Buddy-related.

Ryan being a dramatic dummy with Bunny

Look at him. He decided that sunglasses and a baseball cap are enough for him to be incognito, without changing out of his blindingly flashy golden shirt. He is ready to leave the city because he thinks his partner is abandoning him, based on... her having two conversations with another colleague, one of which he secretly videotaped, only half heard, and wildly misinterpreted.

But he did go to the only person who never explicitly turned his back on him, even though they were partners for only, what, days? A few weeks, at most?

This is so ridiculous, but also so damn sad. And it made me grow so fond of this big idiot.

Someone give him a hug.

Ivan making puppy eyes at Bunny

I still cannot believe this is a thing that happened 😂

"Gee, it sure would be nice if someone who is not me very casually gave my Buddy the exact personal information about my life that he needs to figure out why I'm currently mad at him..."

Ivan truly is one of the characters of all time, lol.

Bunny with Kaede

I just get incredibly moved about Bunny essentially co-parenting Kaede, and episode 2x07 just takes the cake for this. He's so kind and available with her, without ever being overbearing (look at how he's giving her space here, just to mention one tiny detail).

I think if Early Season 1 Bunny could see himself here, he could never believe his eyes.

I'm so happy he got to be this soft, loving, loved version of himself, and to have some kind of family again. 💗

Pao-Lin and Ivan visiting Nathan and Keith in the hospital

I thought it was such a nice touch to have each of them take care of the older hero they look up to the most. I'm a huge fan of the relationship between Pao-Lin and Nathan (or, as I call them, The Gender Squad); the moment Pao-Lin frees Nathan from her nightmare is SO amazing. And I love the scene where Keith reassures Ivan that he acknowledges him as a hero, and I think it's very important for both of their characters.

Essentially this little moment here is a way a callback to two of my favorite moments in The Rising... no wonder I liked it.

Keith sweating at the very thought of having to lie

Look, I know, not much to say about this, but he's just. So. Dang. Precious. 🥹 I love this man to bits. 💙💜💙

[taigertea]

spoilers for the new additional 6 pages of Tiger and Bunny 2 (which you can access through this post (big thanks to TLF and @tnbdirectory), i wrote a less coherent rant about this on twitter but like omg

I believe now this is the 3rd (?) time Barnaby has explicitly shown/said he wants to be with Kotetsu, with it being of his own volition

(The three times I can think of 1. when Barnaby comes out of retirement with Kotetsu end of S1 2. episode 21 of S2, in cour 2 when he wants to be partners with Kotetsu for the last time 3. the new TL'd 6 pages for post S2 ending where he really makes it clear he wants to support Kotetsu by Kotetsu's side, without any snark about it, just really requests that he stay and help even when Kotetsu tells him he doesn't need to stick around)

(I don't really count the elevator scene from S2 ep 18 and the final scene from The Rising because though it's obvious to the audience what Barnaby is thinking, I don't think it's clear enough for Kotetsu to REALLY get it. Though you could debate more with the elevator scene, I'm open to conversation lol.)

But I'm just pulling my hair out at how Kotetsu still just really wants what's best for Barnaby, when he looks at Barnaby's bangle it's feels like he's just about to say something along the lines of "can you really be here?" when he could be doing something "more important" or actual hero work.

But Barnaby doesn't even dignify Kotetsu's attempt to push him away just giving that line (that makes me insane) of how he wants to be Kotetsu's support. Also just the way Barnaby KNEW what Kotetsu was going to say.

It's so wild that it's like a mini version of their Rising situation, but this shows how far they've come. Like Barnaby does not stay silent here. I'm sure he remembers how that went down, and at least this time Kotetsu asks Barnaby instead of making the executive decision to leave him in the dust on his own. Barnaby's just so honest here? No bullshit, little snark, just here it is, all on the table. It does make me wonder if the past couple months not working with Kotetsu has made him not want to not cloak things as much and say it straight. Though this might have been something even spurred on as early as S2 ep 21 when there was real risk of their partnership being over, after his super ernest confession.

But this made me think, Barnaby's made it pretty clear to Kotetsu he wants to be partners, even in non-hero situations, but it made me realize that I don't think Kotetsu has ever reciprocated verbally? Not because Barnaby isn't important to him or that he doesn't want partners, but more because of how Kotetsu views himself as a burden/problem to Barnaby? And also because I don't think Kotetsu's love language is really through words (though I think it's important that Barnaby DOES show love through words occasionally without snark, because Kotetsu's a pretty insecure and dense guy, he needs it spelled out for him plainly).

Like Kotetsu seems more to me as an act of service love language guy, which we've seen (and @abluescarfonwaston has made a great post about here). Which makes sense how he reacts in seeing him being a potential problem for Barnaby and trying to remove himself as the problem. Which would be great... if that actually wasn't causing MORE of a problem in Barnaby's life (in that Kotetsu's not a problem at all AND PLEASE STAY FFS).

The big moments that indicate Kotetsu appreciates his partnership with Barnaby directly are basically just in ep24 of S1. Every other time he's just kinda... gone with the flow? Like it's usually Barnaby initiating or asking Kotetsu, except in the elevator scene which was a question and not really an affirmation. WE as the audience can see how clearly Kotetsu adores Barnaby, but I wonder how it comes off to Barnaby in the show when he can't see how torn up Kotetsu gets at the thought of or actually having lost Barnaby as a partner (Rising and hospitalization).

And yes, we see they can "know what each other is thinking without saying anything" but I don't think that's 24/7, as shown by a couple moments throughout S2.

Despite being the more "tsun" one, Barnaby has been more explicit and straightforward about what he wants from Kotetsu (Kotetsu in his life, whatever form it may take).

Which makes me wonder, man would Barnaby just snap, like all the safeties are off, and just kiss Kotetsu if he ever explicitly told him that he wants Barnaby in his life? The other option is acting tsun but I think the previous option would be infinitely more fun.

also bonus thing I noticed:

Barnaby says "WHY" for the word game and Kotetsu asks if he couldn't choose another word. Barnaby refuses, but the next thing Kotetsu says is "YOU" which works out in this situation lol (dunno if this is a English TL version only thing but thought it was funny how it worked out)

also wondering why Barnaby was so stuck on keeping "WHY" 😆

[thirdleagueheroes]

Trying to catch up on things and I'm a little confused - how many manga series does Tiger & Bunny have?

I have 7/8 volumes of Tiger & Bunny in English, but your recent ask mentions you're working on volume 7 of what you're translating as well, which from what I gather *has* no english release(?) so I assume it's a different series??

Plus the Anthologies exist, and the The Beginning sides A and B... are there more? What is happening I'm so lost, why is this so underappreciated in the US and hard to learn about lol

YEAH SO. Here's what's officially available in English, to the best of my knowledge:

Tiger & Bunny by Mizuki Sakakibara (9 volumes)

Tiger & Bunny: The Beginning by Tsutomu Oono (2 volumes)

Tiger & Bunny Comic Anthology 2-in-1 (2 volumes) — These are compilations of unofficial 4-komas and short stories that were originally published in Japan by Asuka Comics DX as 4 individual volumes; to this day I'm baffled (although pleased) that this got brought over while Ueda's series was apparently passed over

Aaaaaand...yeah. That's it.

The manga series we're currently failing at translating is by Hiroshi Ueda. Officially it's called Tiger & Bunny: The Comic, but since it once ran in the Miracle Jump magazine you'll often see me refer to it as just "MJ" series" or some variation thereof. (This has fucked me over now that Tiger & Bunny: The Comic 2 runs online for a different publication.**) Whereas Sakakibara's series retells the story of season 1's first cour (albeit with some changes/additions that were apparently discarded ideas from the anime), Ueda's has completely original stories written by Erika Yoshida (one of the anime's screenwriters) that jump around in the series chronology. Frex, one of the earliest stories (both in terms of this comic series and the anime's storyline) explains why Ivan and Pao-Lin aren't around in episode 5 for Barnaby's birthday surprise (with the rest of the chapter showing them trying to make up for it), and then there's also one that's set a month or so before The Rising. Stuff like that.

**Or maybe it's still kinda the same but under a different name? Miracle Jump was previously known as Monthly Young Jump before its rebrand in 2011, and then the website that The Comic 2 runs on is Tonari no Young Jump, soooo.

Regarding Sakakibara's series, there are 4 supplementary volumes that were released collecting the bonus content that ran alongside that series when it was initially running in Newtype Ace, both published by Kadokawa Comics A:

Tiger & Bunny-Chan by Kotoni Shiroishi (2 volumes) — Features primarily 4-komas with a few short stories. And the birth of the entity known as Kittyface Pao-Lin.

Tiger & Bunny Sky High by Virginia Nitouhei (1 volume) — Four short stories featuring Sky High.

Tiger & Bunny Origami by Yanagi Yukisuke (1 volume) — Six short stories featuring Origami Cyclone.

No clue what's been going on with Sakakibara's serialization of the second season, though — haven't been following it.

For the more general unofficial-but-also-official anthologies, BOY HOWDY THERE SURE ARE A LOT... Aside from the 4 that got localized, I currently have 9 in my collection:

Tiger & Bunny: The Beginning Comic Anthology published by DNA Media Comics (1 volume)

Tiger & Bunny Comic Anthology published by DNA Media Comics (3 volumes; missing volume 1)

Tiger & Bunny 4-Koma Kings published by DNA Media Comics (3 volumes)

Tiger & Bunny Official Comic Anthology published by Frontier Works (1 volume; "official" here is written as 公式)

Tiger & Bunny Anthology Comic Go! Go!! Tiger & Bunny published by Movic (3 volumes; missing volumes 1 & 2)

Tiger & Bunny Official Anthology Extra published by Asuka Comics DX (1 volume)

I do have some scattered scanslations on hand from one or two of these volumes (from back in the T&B LiveJournal community days, ha), but before I potentially share them I need to sort out which volumes they actually belong to and make sure that any appropriate credit is retained.

Hope this is helpful!

What an incredible year it has been! At the beginning of the year, we continued the tail end of the 10th anniversary celebrations, that started back in April 2021 and partied on into 2022, with a number of limited time collaborations and movie screening events . This concluded in March with the Precious EVE live event, giving us a taste of what was to come in April and finally followed with the longly and highly anticipated release of the first cour of TIGER & BUNNY 2!

The non-stop wave of merchandise, collaborations, manga releases, character birthdays celebrations and cast watch parties (which all can be watched here and here) held us over as we excitedly waited for the release of the conclusive second cour of T&B2 in October.

It has been an exciting and unexpectedly, a heavy rollercoaster of emotions for me personally, to see the sequel that we’ve all been waiting for since 2011, finally happen and makes me proud that the ongoing love and commitment from the fans, over all these years, made that into a reality. Thank you.

I wish you all a very happy new year and look forward to what 2023 has in store!

「顔色悪い」 - S2 Cour 1 Episode 8

「顔色悪い」 ー Kao iro warui

Literally: Your face complexion/colouring is bad.

Subaru uses this phrase in Episode 8 to describe Yuri and it's one of the most hysterical things ever. Especially when Bunny tries to figure out who he's talking about.

I forgot that I entered the phrase in "imiwa" and saved it on my phone, because it made me laugh so much.

Anyway I like the choice of "Pasty Face" as a translation for this, since the original phrase is quite ambiguous and can be applied to anyone of any type of complexion (they just have to look unwell or sickly imo). So referring to Yuri's paleness as "pasty" makes it more obvious, and captures the intent of the original.

For more on this phrase, watch Hirata and Morita discuss in Tiger & Bunny 2: Watch Party Ep 8 (subbed)

Now with the revelation that Bunny is an airhead 🤣

Tiger & Bunny Week, ACTUAL Day 6

Previous post it was literally 2am and I kept looking at the time thinking it was the 6th day bc it was now the 7th in my timezone lol. but anyway, now that it's properly the 7th:

April 7: Fan Theories and Predictions

Pretty excited to do this one. And this will be a theory. Also, Season 2 Cour 2 spoilers.

My theory is: The NEXT Mutation is something physical, like another system in the body, and should be cared for like any other body part (muscle, vein/arteries, body parts like kidney, liver, heart, etc). And this ties into Hundred Power and how it's apparently at risk of wearing out/being lost, BUT you can also somehow make it stronger. This in turn ties into Audun, Kotetsu and what Ben has said about power loss and outright mutation.

Hundred power affects the whole body. It increases strength of every muscle, every little bit of performance including vision, hearing, healing process and probably stuff like metabolism too. How I envision it is something resembling a nerve is connecting the whole body to make a perfect loop from the brain back to the brain. If this 'nerve' is damaged or wearing out due to improper care, then the hundred power in turn becomes far less effective. This is possibly why Legend and Kotetsu have lost theirs, whilst Audun took care of his power to the point where he lowered the cooldown to 1 minute on top of being extremely buff whilst his hair started graying.

And this nerve connection is likely different for everyone, possibly determining if you can glow completely or not. The Myers sister for instance never seem to put on a full glowing display, but their eyes do indeed glow whilst their powers are active. And in a few other cases, eyes glow first to get into a 'ready' state' before the body starts glowing; this is seen with maverick about to mindwash Barnaby, and another instance is actually in Hero's day, in which Keith can threaten to use his powers in a bad ending. He flashes blue for a moment but then his eyes stay glowing for a while after that, but his powers are not in use. This may imply there's two 'routes' this mutation can take, one around the sinuses and thus just the eyes, the other around the entire body. Some NEXTs may not have the full body one because their powers don't require it.

Only area I get hung up on this theory is Sigourney bc like, how does possession even work. Souls are real? She can posses both NEXT and non-NEXT. While it's not uncommon to have a power come from a NEXT and manipulate your body in ways you don't think possible, what's weird here is Sigourney is almost a sitting duck here. If the possessed body dies, she goes with it. Her power is the hardest to explain with this theory, because she can pass the possession on, unlike most powers that are usually one on one exchanges like Nicolai's paralysis.

TLDR; The Mutation might be a physical to explain the whole glowing thing and how powers wear out. However, Sigourney implies souls are canon in Tiger & Bunny and I don't know what to do with that information.

Friend if you wanna watch a show that at least tries to criticise capitalism with morally grey characters go watch Tiger & Bunny it's literally what the MCU should've been instead of the corporative mess (tho cour 2 of season 2 does not exist for me and never will)

Literally I'm this close 👌of making a video abour how this show and the lore (that are the characters) and how this whole show is late stage capitalism and has tons of parallelisms with toxic ideals and shit

Also there is queer and black/non white characters which is a plus

btw go pirate the show not bc I want to but damn stupid netflix censored the branding and it's so weird it's like reading 1984 with the Big Brother being cut out of it 💀

I love how u picked on my annoyance of how hollow & un-inspiring the storytelling in the film industry is to me. I’m completely annoyed and I’ve been vague posting about it.

I Can’t Stand The Corporate Takeover😤

Tiger & Bunny Fic - Stern Bild Summer

Title: Stern Bild Summer Fandom: Tiger & Bunny Relationships: Kaede & Barnaby, Barnaby/Kotetsu Word count: 11,438 Rating: T Tags: Post s2e13, POV Kaburagi Kaede, Moving In Together, Established Relationship, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, canon-typical danger, Family Bonding, Cemetery, Fandom Trumps Hate 2022 Summary: Kaede moves in with Barnaby and Kotetsu for the summer. It's a learning experience for everybody.

Paycheckgurl won me in the Fandom Trumps Hate auction waaaaaaaay back in February, and her request was for a Kaede-centric fic with her moving in with Barnaby and Kotetsu and them kind of figuring out this whole "family" thing.

Thank you so much for your generosity and your patience, and I hope this story is worth the wait!

I finished the first draft four days before cour 2 dropped, so this is canon-compliant up to s2e13.

Preview:

The train slowed in its approach to the main Stern Bild station, and Kaede shouldered her backpack and grabbed her suitcase and duffle bag in preparation for disembarking. Her heart pounded, some combination of excitement and nervousness, which was weird because she'd never been nervous about coming to Stern Bild before.

Well, she wasn't just coming for a visit this time. She was moving here to live with her dad. For the summer, anyway.

Which might not have been weird by itself, except Barnaby was going to be there, too. Living with them. Because he and Dad were dating.

Okay, so it hadn't been a total surprise when they'd come out to Kaede earlier that year; she may have been in Oriental Town but even she could tell Dad wasn't handling it well when Barnaby was in a coma, no matter how much he tried to put on a good face for her. And you'd have to be denser than a brick not to see the way Barnaby was always smiling at Dad in their interviews; he practically had hearts floating around his head.

But even knowing that, it had still thrown her to learn her dad was dating a guy, and specifically a guy that Kaede had had a crush on for nearly three years, even if that crush had subsided a lot recently.

So yeah. It was going to be weird.

Read it on AO3!

SPOILER WARNING FOR TIGER & BUNNY SEASON 2 COUR 1 !!

——————————————————

Finished the first cour of season 2 of Tiger and Bunny and DAMMIT ||WHY DID FUGAN AND MUGAN HAVE TO DIE

Yes they were ‘evil’ and attacked tons of innocent heroes but they NEVER actually KILLED anyone. Despite constantly claiming they’re ‘hero killers’, all they did was put them out of commission. They did exactly as their hero L.L Audun did - Audun was a vigilante, which is a criminal act and yet his M.O was always arresting criminals, not murdering them for sport. With the twins, it’s like a game, a challenge, and though they’re associated with an evil organisation their motivation is helping out their dad, who’s boss gave him an *order* that, if not followed, would get him killed. So the main reason the twins wreaked such havoc is 1. To show their dad how grateful they are that he took them in and cared for them when no one else would, and 2. Keep their dad safe by keeping Ouroboros off his back.

My sweet babies didn’t have to die in the end though!!! It would’ve been SUCH a good twist if they were rehabilitated and turned by the heroes into heroes themselves!! Fugan and Mugan were completely neutral characters - at first when their dad asked them to start taking out the heroes, they said they weren’t interested. It was only when they realized their dad was being forced into said task that they decided to do it for HIS sake.

Plus Tiger and Bunny would be such nurturing mentors. Visiting them in the hospital, bringing them sodas as a peace offering - the twins realize that Tiger and Bunny brought them their *favourite* sodas, and are like, “how did you know?” Kotetsu sheepishly replies that they had to do some profiling checks on them after their arrest. And Bunny gets so embarrassed cos Kotetsu is so incredibly fascinated that the twins are identical, but the twins are fine with it, they actually find it amusing and often play tricks on Kotetsu. Just cute stuff like that. Later on they get to know the twins better, some great bonding happens, etc etc

There have been a bunch of repeated tropes this season - the whole partners argue or have a misunderstanding, then something crime related happens and in the end the partners understand eachother better, yada yada. It was nice to see the inner workings of the new relationships between all the heroes and their situations but it did start to get old kinda quickly.

Haven’t seen cour 2 of S2 yet. I’m gonna let the first cour sink in for a while. But you can bet that there’ll be a TON of Fugan and Mugan fan art coming soon lol||

Of Coffee Rings and Paperwork

of coffee rings and paperwork by onwords

It's not that Kotetsu's a perfect office worker by any means. He isn't.

In fact, he seems to have an allergy to coasters, which means he leaves his ‘World's Okayest Dad’ mug lying around everywhere, and which also means he gets coffee stains onto the paperwork – with splatters and coffee rings decorating a handful of unfortunate documents. Not all. But some of them.

Tiger & Bunny 2: Episode 25 - "Today is not just tomorrow's yesterday"

Tiger & Bunny 2: Episode 25 – “Today is not just tomorrow’s yesterday”

When Gregory Sunshine turned Kotetsu into an “X” at the end of Episode 24, I was wondering how they were going to have him regain his senses. The explanation that was given made a lot of sense, especially since there had been hints about it earlier in this cour. Of course, having Kotetsu losing his NEXT powers is quite the game changer for the franchise. While fighting Audun, Barnaby’s power suit…

An Anniversary ❤️💜💖

One year ago today, while we were all vibrating in our seats, anxiously waiting for Cour 2 of Tiger & Bunny 2 to drop, I posted my longest and to this day still most beloved fic. It's a FireSky novel, it's 72k words, and she's my treasure. (Stories are girls in Italian; isn't that nice?)

So, for her birthday, I thought I'd share her again, in case someone might want to give it a go, or maybe even re-read it (if you've already read it, by the way, I hope you know that I love you forever):

Fandom: Tiger & Bunny Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Keith Goodman/Nathan Seymour Characters: Keith Goodman, Nathan Seymour Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Secret Identity, Romance, First Time, Action/Adventure, Hurt/Comfort, Canon-Typical Violence, Sexual Content, Implied/Referenced Homophobia, Implied/Referenced Transphobia, Identity Porn, Mutual Pining, Angst, Happy Ending, Nonbinary Character, She/Her Pronouns for Nathan Seymour, They/Them Pronouns for Nathan Seymour, But also He/Him Pronouns for Fire Emblem (for plot-related reasons), Very Brief Discussion of Gender Identity Summary:

Still affected by the legacy of Mr. Legend's death, the heroes of Stern Bild keep their identities carefully hidden, even from each other.

Keith Goodman is Sky High, the reigning King of Heroes.

Nat Seymour is the glamorous owner of Helios Energy, and the subject of Keith's instant fascination after he meets her at the party marking the end of the latest season of Hero TV.

Fire Emblem is her company's sponsored hero, and, with the sudden implementation of the Buddy system, he's also Sky High's newly-appointed partner at work.

Which is great, because it means that Sky High isn't alone in dealing with the stress of a new hero who doesn't hide his identity, a mysterious vigilante haunting the streets, and a terrorist organization holding the entire city hostage.

On the other hand, it's not very easy to focus on the job when you just can't stop thinking about your partner's boss.

Keith is pretty concerned, fairly confused, and, possibly, more than a little bit in love.
