Barnavy visits a hairstylist twice a month, lolol.

You'd be surprised how much it costs to look this silly!

And oh, Kotetsu, waaaah. CANNOT STOP FRETTING OVER THE POOR WOOBIE.

I HAVE BEEN MAINLINING THIS SERIES ALL WEEK. SUCH SWEET, ANSGTY CRACK.

This may be the first time I've watched a show where I don't hate or get majorly annoyed with anyone. Well, not yet: I've got my eye on you, Mr. Maverick. And Mr. Mayor, you should grow a pair, ya wuss.

Oh, Tiger: you are in for a world of hurt. I hope spending time with your family in the next episode helps. Start opening up to Bunny the people who care about you: you don't want to go down Legend's road.

Oh, Yuri: the cute almosts makes up for the fact that you are a homicidal maniac. Almost. And now I want all-kinds-of-screwed-up Kotetsu/Yuri Yuri/Kotetsu fic: yes, I'm shallow.

I adore this series: my only fear is that the plotline is actually moving very fast, and I hope this isn't a case of starting off really strong and then running out of steam. much like Kotetsu's powers. *cries* I think it will go from Tiger's issues with his powers quickly into Bunny's upcoming angst relating to his parent's work and untimely deaths. From there on, who knows?

Barnaby ( ... )

I knoooow! I like the cast, they're generally not making inexplicably stupid choices to further the plot, what is this?

I hope Tiger talks to his mom. And Kaede should help set him straight. She won't admire him no matter what, lol.

My one caveat about the kink meme/fandom is a really, really minor one: People are saying it's surprising Kotetsu is wearing his wedding ring five years after his wife died, and I am sitting here going five years is NOTHING. I mean, not that I'm judging anyone who takes their ring off after a year or whatever, but duuude. Anyway! t-and-b-anon, and tiger_and_bunny for all your needs in life, pretty much.

WHAT?!? I'm with you, five years is nothing.

One reason so many like Kotetsu is that he is a good, well-meaning, loving guy: he loves his mom and daughter, he loves his job, he loves being a hero. Of course, he loves his wife, he always will!

Geez, Kotetsu has a really big heart: he can love Tomoe and find love again.

*marks down comm links* Thanks!

Yeah, I hate to be all Bitter Old Fandom Queen, but five years is a lot when you're 19, but once you're over thirty...yeah, no. (I think especially when you have a kid.)

Yeah, he's so sweet.

NP! Anything to spread the word, lol.

MAVERICK KILLED BARNABY'S PARENTS

YES. I felt sure the ultimate reason would involve someone stealing their robotics research for Evil Purposes, and involve a more thorough explanation of wtf Ouroborus is. But Maverick being evil makes sense.

I've been wondering how much of HeroTV is staged since the first episode. For a magical future utopia(?) Sternbuild seems to have metric ton of terrorist attacks. And Director Lady comes off as pretty amoral, they made a big point of that early in the show. The Obama-esque Mayor seems to be under Maverick's thumb, and the whole situation with the head Justice of the city being an insane vigilante... Yeah. There's a lot of really dark business/political intrigue and corruption hinted at throughout the series so far.

Plus, with the set up in this episode for Yuri's past and Kotetsu's ultimate disillusionment/betrayal by Mr. Legend, it would make sense for Barnaby to go through a similar disillusionment/betrayal with Maverick. A+ Great call.

People over on tiger_and_bunny have been suspicious of him for a while, but this is just TOO MUCH. The whole 'and he was with me the day my parents died' thing? TOO MUCH.

That's a really good question. It's hard to say, because this is a world where metahumans exist, and that could easily affect the crime rate or the nature of crimes. But yeah, the whole structure seems weird at best.

Poor guy. Maverick's all he's got!
