Tiger & Bunny (タイガー＆バニー)

[suanz]

Cool anime that I just discovered. To date 6 episodes released and still ongoing......

Plot copied from Wiki :
The series takes place in a fictional re-imagined version of New York City called Sternbild City, where 45 years before, individuals with superpowers called "NEXT" started appearing and some of them became superheroes. Each of city's most famous superheroes work for a sponsor company and their uniforms also contain advertising for real-life companies. Their heroic activity is broadcasted on the popular television show "Hero TV", where they accumulate points by each feat accomplished and the best ranked hero of the season is crowned "King of Heroes". The story mainly focuses on veteran hero Kotetsu T. Kaburagi aka Wild Tiger who is assigned with a new partner, a young man named Barnaby Brooks Jr. However, Barnaby and Kotetsu usually have trouble working together as they have conflicting opinions on how a superhero should act.

Best part is the veteran superhero, Wild Tiger, is voiced by our very own Sha Gojyo, Hiroaki Hirata. Squeeeee................

Besides the above, I like the anime cos :
1- artwork is gorgeous
2- great  CGI
3- humour on top of the usual action

Also this anime has lots of product placements, which fits into the anime so well. Cos they're superheroes on live TV! Get it? LOL!!

Lastly, why is this anime ridiculously called Tiger & Bunny? Cos Wild Tiger likes to call Barnaby 'Bunny-chan". ^_^
