Tiger & Bunny (anyone seen it yet)

Tiger and Bunny just finished their first season and can be viewed in complete on Hulu. Anyone else here seen it through? What did you think? Did you like it?

T&B is one of the top 3 series to air in Japan this year. Though it doesn't end quite as strongly as it could, it's still a wonderful show. Watch it now because based on the ending and how well it is performing in Japan, it is likely we will get a sequel.

I agree with subtle. You guys gotta see the rest of this anime! it is epic and awesome! And I'm personally hoping for a sequel. Yes, the end was a little weak, but better than others I've seen and the vast majority of the content makes up for the ending!

I would watch it if I could, but I can't; Viz does not stream outside of the US.

It was enjoyable. I wasn't too hot on it for the first few episode, but it grew on me. I definitely don't like the idea of a second season, though.

what about Hulu?


I agree blk that the first season was very good in and of itself. I think another season would be cool as long as its not like say naruto or darker than black or gundam. :/

If I remember right, Viz and Funimation use Hulu to play videos. So if you can't watch something on Viz, you probably can't watch it on the other two sites.

On-topic, I guess I should check this out since I've been hearing so much about it.

Rule of thumb is if you're outside the US, never assume you can stream anything.

Sadly, if you're not from the US then Hulu.com kindly lets you know that you can not access their library. I ran into it before but I just double-checked.

Why not, sir? A great cast of characters is sitting there, waiting to be further developed (more Origami!), and Barnaby's story is by no means a closed book.

It could and should have been finished, but it feels like it's been artificially prolonged because it's doing well. I would have been much happier if it had tied everything up neatly and just kept on selling figures and stuff instead.

I need to watch it when I'm done with Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. I only have one more episode of that.
"And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus." Ephesians 2:1-7

I liked Tiger & Bunny quite a bit. I wouldn't say I loved it, or thought it was brilliant, but the series was a lot of fun. The ending was, to me, "cute" rather than powerful, but I thought it was a nice note to end on.

I certainly would like to see a Season 2. I think there's a lot of potential for more development. Plus, I'd just like to see more of the characters. (Kotetsu is just adorable in a can't-catch-a-break way.)

I started watching this but a) I am terrible at watching series by myself b) I don't love it as much as I thought I would. I might finish it at some point but at the moment, I just feel "meh" toward it.

Yeah, it didn't really quite grip me for a while either. I dropped it about a month and a half into airing and didn't go back to it until it was about halfway done.
