Tiger & Bunny?

First things first: I really liked T&B. I loved it like nobody's business. So I probably should have seen it coming, cuz that's usually how things work out for me: first season's over now, and I'm sitting here, hating almost everything about it.
I planned on writing a long ass rant about all the major and minor things that just annoy me to no end (with the whole character and development of Barnaby leading the way), and maybe I will some day, but I just can't bring myself to do it right now. I just got back from sam_cc AND the Connichi, so I'm pretty much dead right now.

Let's just keep it short and say: Damn that was a disappointment. So many idiotic worn out plot devices ALL over the place (engineered public confession sequence gooo!), completely irrational storytelling (I mean, I KNEW Kotetsu was not dead but... duh? Also wow Yuri, you're such a badass mofo, killing a braindead old man), all the heroes being completely useless (SIX HEROES VS ONE SINGLE OLD MAN! And still they couldn't do anything!), and UGH at every scene containing Barnaby. UGH at Barnaby being the most whiny, self-righteous, self-centred, immature, overrated bitch of all time.
Oh but I forgot of course he's allowed to behave like that. After all, DID YOU KNOW HIS PARENTS ARE DEAD??

I'm seriously wondering whether I should put this on private, cuz last time I mentioned something slightly negative about Barnaby I got scolded for bashing this poor guy when he has such a hard fate DD:
But I know I've got some guys on my f!list anyway who really love the show and who adore the ending, and somehow I feel the need to apologize to them, cuz I don't wanna spoil anyone's fun >__>
I still have lots of hope for the second season to make things better. (I know I'll be disappointed, like I almost always am, but hope dies last.) Also, there were three scenes that made me squee, which were Ivan visiting Edward in prison (*squeals like an idiot* I thought they had forgotten all about Edward *thinks of Saiga and his boyfriend*), Karina reading a book about how to pick up sexy guys like Kotetsu and OMG ISAAC AND TONY sitting together in one room, watching TV, eating cupcakes and being boyfriends! T/////T ...What do you mean, you don't know who Isaac and Tony are, GTFO ;O;°°°

This is probably just me being an enormously touchy idiot about matters like continuity, characters that are supposed to be imortant doing nothing but standing on the sidelines or being only available by half the dozen, and of course the topic of antagonists again.

EDIT: LAWL u guise keep on trolling. Seems like I cannot voice my opinion in this fandom without getting bashed by people (who don't even know me) over at Tumblr for not liking their perfect little show. This never happened to me ever before and proves to me that this fandom is seriously sick as fuck.
I could make this entry private, but I don't feel like letting these people forbid me to speak my mind.

review, ranting, disregard that i'm an idiot, tiger&bunny, fandom's a bitch
