Ten years have passed since the end of the TIGER & BUNNY TV series, and I wondered if there would be a second season? Then, a new series has started after 10 years! The first half of the second season was released all at once as a Netflix exclusive, not as a terrestrial broadcast! The second half will soon be available, so I would like to look back on the contents of episodes 1 to 6 of PART 1 and introduce them!
Season 2 Episode 1 A word to the wise is enough. Hear one and know ten
The new series has started, and the heroes are working in pairs. New heroes include Magical Cat, a magical girl-style hero with a beautiful girl feel by Masakazu Katsura, Mr. Black, the Barrier Man dressed in all black, and Hees Thomas, a cool hero dressed in all white. The heroes from the first season are also familiar, but the one teaming up with Blue Rose is none other than Golden Ryan, a guest character from the movie. In the movie, he was portrayed as the mastermind and a traitor, which was ominous, but that wasn't the case at all. And now, that guest character has become a regular character, a reliable guy! However, Tiger, the main character, is unable to play an active role due to the handicap of his reduced abilities.
Episode 1②
I thought the characters other than the heroes would be the same as always, but oh, oh, Agnes! ? Agnes, the talented producer! ? What happened to you after the movie ended? I don't know if she was stressed out by her hard work, but the reason why she became like this may be revealed later. And as for Tiger, who is the main character, I thought he had become a useless hero due to his reduced abilities, but he was doing his best in his own way, supporting other friends and buddies and using his head so that they could get around well! He's the unsung hero.
Season 2 Episode 2 No one knows the weight of another's burden. No one knows the weight of another's burden.
The new hero, Mr. Black, aka Subaru Sengoku, seems to be a new hero with the ability of a barrier, but he is a problem child who is not able to perform well because his enthusiasm is in vain and he picks a fight with his seniors. He has more conviction as a hero than anyone else and seems to want to perform well than anyone else, but the results are not good at all, and he rebels when his sponsor tells him to stick to supporting his buddy Heiz Thomas. However, he is told to show off after he has performed well, and he can't say a word...
Episode 2②
Meanwhile, during an infiltration mission where Origami Cyclone disguises himself as an enemy ally through camouflage, Mr. Black, eager to succeed, once again messes up and puts the other heroes in danger. The mission itself is somehow successful thanks to Barnaby's efforts, but it's not good enough after all. Black is spinning his wheels like that, but the veteran Tiger tells him that no matter who does it, it's important that someone is saved in the end, and Black agrees and apologizes. Tiger is a good adult and a good senior this season! He's a bit unreliable as a fighting force, but he's become an indispensable presence.
Season 2 Episode 3 Suspicion will raise bogies. Doubt will attract evil spirits
Blue Rose is a popular hero with great abilities at a young age, but she is in love with Tiger, who is as old as her father. Blue Rose invites Tiger to go visit a sick fan. Golden Ryan, her current partner, who saw the secret meeting, assumes that Blue Rose will end their partnership and switch sides to Tiger. Since it is not someone else's problem, she consults Barnaby about it, but he denies it.
Episode 3②
In fact, after the movie version, Golden Ryan was a hero in another place, where he had a history of being abandoned by a fellow hero with malice, and had returned to being a hero of Sternbild. Ryan and Barnaby stalk the two of them in this way, but the story about visiting a sick fan was a lie, a lie made up by Blue Rose fans in order to meet Blue Rose. In the end, the misunderstanding is cleared up, but Ryan cries and insists, "They're always taking my partner!" Ryan is a very reliable man, but it seems that he has a surprisingly sensitive side.
Season 2 Episode 4 Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
The Sky High and Fire Emblem duo have been the top heroes leading the heroes since the Buddy System began. However, even this top team with everything going smoothly seems to have a problem... It was that their partner Sky High was too perfect, so they were not used to being part of a real team.
Episode 4②
Fire Emblem confides its worries to Tiger and Barnaby, and although there is some awkwardness when they are overheard, they seem to have become a pair that is open to each other by working together to solve the incident that occurred at the event venue. Sky High and Fire Emblem are veteran heroes who are relied on in many ways, but Tiger and Barnaby, who are relied on by the two, also seem to be the spiritual pillars of the heroes!
Season 2 Episode 5 Live and let live. Live yourself and let others live
Rock Bison and Origami Cyclone, heroes who were not very active in season 1, played a great role during the incident and showed their growth as heroes. However, Rock Bison made Origami Cyclone angry, and even though Rock Bison tried to apologize, Origami did not listen. However, they somehow make up. I hope you will continue to be active!
Episode 5②
Apart from that, a new character who seems to be important will appear. A boy who participated in Barnaby's handshake event at the Hero Festival. In fact, he was Mattia Ingram, Barnaby's childhood friend who lived across the street from him. Mattia thought that Barnaby didn't remember him, but Barnaby remembered Mattia on the spot.
Season 2 Episode 6 Youth should be regarded with respect. Youth should be feared.
This episode is about Magical Cat, a new hero who has teamed up with Dragon Kid. Magical Cat is a girl of the same age, and is a good and obedient girl, so she seems to be doing pretty well. However, the mother of Magical Cat, Lara Chaikoskaya, is a toxic parent, and she tries to imprint on her that Dragon Kid is trying to take away her opportunities to shine and kick her down. However, it is also true that Dragon Kid is always fighting in front of Kid. Unable to resist her mother's orders, Lala steps in front of Kid and tries to catch the culprit, but...
Episode 6②
Her power doesn't work when it counts! Cat's ability to control water is heavily influenced by her mental state, and Kid knew that her power doesn't work well when she's anxious or scared. That's why he wanted her to get used to it little by little. Cat is a good girl. I thought she was a little devil, but she's not like that at all, she's a good girl who's obedient! But her mother is a toxic parent...
【TIGER&BUNNY2】Review of Season 2 Part 1 Summary
I looked back on episodes 1 to 6 of Season 2 Part 1 of TIGER&BUNNY! The first half was about new characters and new buddies. There were a lot of great new characters, but Tiger, who I was most interested in, also played an active role as a hero. I was particularly impressed by how he became an indispensable presence, acting as a kind of advisor to the other heroes. Episodes from Episode 7 onwards are also summarized, so please take a look!
