Maybe powers dull with age and prolonged usage? With the rate that he's pushing his body, the fluctuations in his power may be a sign of that. Imagine the final arc where all of a sudden Tiger has completely lost his powers. I'm sure he'll still try to do what he humanly can to be a hero. :)

I doubt all of those possibilities. I think it's a new side to the mutation that took place forty years ago. If abilities wore out with age, others would have noticed it by now. However, if they somehow found a way to eliminate powers completely, that would make a solid finale, but at the pace this series goes I doubt they would do that in merely 11 episodes without any foreshadowing.

i think the proof for the powers going away is that ominous music that plays when kotetsu says "could my powers be evolving?" that means his powers are either gonna disapear or be too hard for him to controll, either way kotetsu is kinda screwed

What I noticed most was how he was leaning on his knuckles (pinkie moving) and his expression reminded me of Jake. The ominous music was not tragic, it felt more like the introduction of a villain... You see where I am going here right? I HOPE I AM WRONG!!!

Oh, and there is going to be a manga of short stories to be serialised of Tiger & Bunny. YAY, extra episodes! Tiger and Bunny is going to take up two of my shelves all by itself...

Oo, a new opening~ I liked the first one better :C

I like the idea of showing them in a TV program, but it seems a little... out of character. They're so nice to each other, and Barnaby is really humble! and just wtf, Wild Tiger ranked 4th?! I know they've became more and more popular and they had to develop, but it just doesn't feel right >___<
That "you're great", "no you're great", "no you're great", "stfu you're awesome" is just strange... it doesn't feel right. And that "awesome partnership", it sounds gay XDD

I feel bad for Blue Rose, she felt in love with that baka ojisan Kotetsu was, and now he's not himself... That collaboration between these three seems interesting, but dance lessons... Lol it would be awesome if they could do Caramelldansen 8DD
Lol'd @ Tiger's dance, omg he's awesome XDDDD Maybe he's changed, but he still is epic 8D

LOL that Karina's friend has a good view, I think I could like her :3
I want a towel like the one Kotetsu give Blue Rose! That snake is cute~~

Poor Karina~~ She thought Kotetsu will invite her to a date, but he wanted to train~~
And wtf "You can get boyfriend or two"? Is he inviting her to cheating? D:

What the hell is that guy pretending he's Blue Rose? ...OK I KNOW HE'S A PEDO PERVERT LOL Or maybe Karina's fanboy?

Hmm their dance looks a little lame for me... >___<

Looks like something's going on with Kotetsu's powers... Like they're getting updated or something? O__o
Lol and now Blue Rose is acting like Kotetsu's fangirl... They're all weird

The new ending is pretty nice, I like it~

I'm severely missing the original ED theme for the show.

Moving on, it was nice to see some real progression in the story. It's been ten months since last episode and it's almost sickening how well Tiger and Bunny get along. Everyone seems to get along in the group now and Bunny isn't nearly as annoying. It's almost like an epilogue at the halfway point. Of course things are still unsettled, Kriem, Lunatic and the Ouroboros mysteries are still floating about.

I couldn't stop smiling this episode just because I got so much Blue Rose. And even though common sense and other viewers tell me that she has no chance with Tiger, I refuse to give up hope.

I don't know if it was the fact that this was a Blue Rose-heavy episode, but I'm really LOVING the new direction of the series, with Tiger & Bunny as a functional team. I cannot wait to see what's in store for them in the future.

And that power change might me good or bad omen, I'm still not sure. Bunny's change got me as well, yeah 10 months is a long time... ok then.

Whoa, it's like freaking opposite land now! Tiger/Bunny have a completely different dynamic now. I totally feel like they boned and that's why they're now that way LOL. They're both still tsundere's though.

Also, ew. Blue Rose needs to get over Tiger, he's way too old for her. Besides, he's 100% not interested. After all, he has his Bunny. XD

It seems like Tiger's power has developed. He can be stronger/faster now, but within a shorter amount of time. That sort of seems... annoying and pointless LOL. I mean, he's teamed up with Bunny so they pretty much have double strength/speed with two people so really if you add in Tiger's changes there's just an added boost on to that but for a shorter amount of time, which would probably reduce the strength/speed total overall. Bit of a fail there. Alsooooo what if instead of Tiger's power evolving, it's actually devolving? Sort of like the last hurrah?

Wha.. I wonder what's happening to Kotetsu's powers.

Also I think it's adorable that Kotetsu is completely unaware of Karina's feelings.

BARNABY.
STOP.
BEING.
NICE.
WHAT IS THIS SHIT?
WHERE'S THE TROLL?!

I was ONE HUNDRED PERCENT SURE that at the start, after the interview, they would start fighting again. I thought they were acting.

Maybe Barnaby still is acting?
I hope so, new Barnaby is creepy.

new OP and ED are great :)

so it's a 10 month skip huh?

i thought Barnaby was acting all nice in the TV where they are best buds with Kotetsu.

it seems they really are!!!!!

was even surprised Kotetsu and Barnaby accepted the dance concert!!!!

Karina in workout fit!!



the concert was a success!!

pretty good moves Kotetsu and everyone!



so Blue Rose really likes Kotetsu huh :D

aww!!

though i thought she liked Barnaby since in the last episode Kotetsu ask how he was :P



yeah very surprise on Kotetsu evolving!!!

much like Jake, another power??



at least Kotetsu and Barnaby are now teaming up now!!!



yeah Blue Rose is happy she got Kotetsu's towel back!!



shame Rock Bison has been down all this time, and woo Kotetsu in 4th place!!

next up Sky High in love!!

Oh a new OP~

Also I feel this episode is abit more of a "hey lets take a look at what the heroes do normally when they're not fighting criminals-- oh what's that? They're always fighting criminals!"

I kinda like Karina and all but I think Kotetsu sees her as a daughter...but nonetheless it's cute!

Barnaby and Kotetsu getting along already...somehow I miss them arguing too!

Next episode....Sky high will be in love? This should be interesting

I hope they don't end up together, that would be too weird. .-. I think they just don't match. Blue Rose doesn't seem mature enough, and Tiger has a daughter.. o.O

This episode was kind of awkward to me; too much talking, less action, less music, and the OP/ED change... I didn't like it. Also, Barnaby became way too nice... e.e

In the beginning, I was afraid this was going to be a recap episode but luckily that wasn't the case.

The new OP and ED were average. I'll probably skip them from here on out.

Blue Rose confirmed tsundere.

That age gap between her and Kotetsu is making it really awkward for Blue Rose to confess her feelings to him.

That NEXT was creepy for peeping on Blue Rose though she does have a nice ass ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Kotetsu was awesome as always.

I wonder what's happening to Kotetsu's powers? Guess we will find out! Onto the next one!

8/10 Great way to start the second half.

Please no, I'd rather see Tiger and Bunny fighting together than Rose interested in the old man lol.

I guess Tiger can now boost his power for like 30s, but then he will lose 30s of his regular power as well.

not a bad op/ed. Didint think we get a time skip and karien seems to be in a coma sure that will come into play later. pretty funny episode. Poor blue she has it hard for tiger and he doesint notice. At least she had the guts to say that line at the end. It also seems something is happening with tigers power.

Wait what? Is this Hunter x Hunter? That invisibility power though..
Have the very same ability with... Actually nvm

a cute school girl crush is okay but I hope it doesn't go anywhere and she moves onto someone closer to her age. I don't care that it would get in the way of a ship or whatever. It's just so inappropriate. I really like Blue Rose and they find her a suitable love interest. Bunny/Tiger or Agnes/Tiger are both better options if the show were to pursue a romantic subplot with Tiger imo.

Oh, love is most certainly blind indeed. Our little hero has a crush but I dunno how I feel about it quite yet. Tiger and Bunny seem to be connecting on a super high level now, and it's a great thing to see. I love the time skip and that they have moved on to better things, a second squad has arrived to take care of minor situations, will they grow on me? I dunno. Bunny seems like an entirely new person, but that's only because that's who he was the entire time but could never let his true colors show due to a heavyweight he was carrying around him for more than 20 years. I'm so excited to see what happens next, that I have put everything i'm watching at the moment on hold for this series, I really don't want it to end, but I also cannot stop watching it.

Where do you even start with this episode?

I will say, first of all, that this had some genuinely funny lines in it. "You got smoke comin' out of your ass, buddy!"

Now to the elephant in the room: Is Blue Rose out of her damn mind? For her to be feeling any sort of way about a guy in his 40s is just kinda weird. At least Tiger kept being Tiger by being completely oblivious. Anyway, I always thought their closeness was a bit weird.

Also, part of me feels like getting Tiger & Bunny to do a single with Blue Rose is a bit of a stretch in terms of episode plot. I feel like there had to be another way to get them at that concert besides that.

Finally, I too am intrigued about Tiger's powers running out...

Well the new OP and ED is ok, but I definitely prefer the older ones, had more epic-ness to them.

So its confirmed Blue Rose is indeed in love with him, and I am 100% ok with this. He's a good guy, and deserves a good woman, and she's like 18, so its ok. He's only in his late 20's or early 30's I believe.

This IS sunrise, so even though I like his boosts in power, this is probably a sign that something BAD is about to happen, especially for such strong bursts in power like that.

And +100 for Tiger FINALLY getting the respect he deserves. Him and Bunny are clicking excellently, and the fans finally love him, so this is the perfect time to give him some hell. Damn you Sunrise
yeah i thought this too until i searched it up... he's 38 basically middle aged
