| ^ Some reason i have a feeling that this will end with all next powers disappearing due to some freak (lunatic) and his evil plot against the world. That would be pretty devastating... Anyway! I can't wait to see the next episode.. |
Kore wa.. Kore wa.. Neo Armstrong Cyclone Jet Armstrong Cannon!!! Poor Skyhigh.. Losing power is something to look up to.. |
| That was actually a really depressing ending with sky high waiting happily for the girl who isn't comming. NOOOO tiger loseing power ): |

ItsSoPringles said: it proboly would end like that, though i dont think that would be devastating, that would lead to all the charecters finaly having normal lives, karina(blue rose) would go back to being a normal high schooler, nathon(fire emblem) would still be incredibly gay, kotetsu could be the dad to his child again, barnaby would continue his parents research on robots, keith(sky high)...i dont know i always feel like hed make a awsome sales person, dragon kid would be able to spend time with her parents again, and who knows about what bison do we would probolly know once he gets his episode thatd be a happy ending not a devastating, devastating would be like wolfs rain ending or tokyo magnitude's those are devastating endings Good point, now that you mention it, the theory seems to be a lot more likely the way that T&B ends.But still, i can't imagine that the heroes would be able to go back to normal lives after losing something as big as super powers as by now it's sort of something they use on instinct. |
ItsSoPringles said: VioLink said: everyone else got a really happy end with their episodes, sky high just depresses us......it seriously is more depressing caus eit reminded me of that scene in rahXephon that i posted up there, that scene was devastating, even people who hated that show loved that sceneThat was actually a really depressing ending with sky high waiting happily for the girl who isn't comming. NOOOO tiger loseing power ): Yeah man like I can't believe this show would have it end like that ): I don't want sky High to be sad he is 100% better when he is happy they should of made him married with kids since he looks older then Tiger. Hakkuei said: Zepwich said: B'aawww, this is like Fry's dog all over again ;_; Ehm, no. Just no. That Futurama episode was fucking sad, but this shit in T&B was just stupid. Sky High is retarded, how can you not see that she was a robot?! Don't be mean Tiger and bunny didn't know she was a robot until her skin started melting. I knew she was a robot when she first responded but, to people in that show she looks normal and her actions could be seen as shy/timid to them. Seeing Sky high waiting at the end for her WAS SOME SAD SHIT especially because he was the one who killed her ): |

MorningGlory said: wtf with those kids reporter in the first row Akira. LOL. Kinda sad ending for Sky High though... |
I found it most excellent at how Sky High did a marvelous job of getting that robot as follows, that was great. The wind element is shown nicely and the slice is clear through. TBH I am much more primed for next episode as it features the following,  L-U-N-A-T-I-C! Yeah that guy will fest it up! Except the OP does show that Tiger and Bunny will double kick him.

paperbomb said: Yeah but at least there was some saucy Barnaby service. Yumekichi11 said: Archie74 said: I knew it the moment I heard that robotic sound as she turned her head.How many people KNEW right away she I was kind of hoping the girl was Origami in disguise to cheer him up >.>" Though the robot noise totally ruined my pathetic fangirlish theory... I was much more in heavens with the whole Rose episode last episode. I also miss that one episode that was Dragon Kid EPIC! Oh well, Dragon Kid for me is #1. |
| that was a fairly different episode, sky high is probably one of my favorite heroes, along with Kotetsu, but what a depressing episode :( but that don't mean its a bad one. |
| Damn - this episode was sad (before the ED) and shocking (after the ED). Poor Sky High....and what will happen with Tiger? I've never expected a plot evolution like this. |
 |
| yup i feel sad for Sky High too, that girl robot never really care about him actually i think Tiger got a kind of Next sickness, maybe the subsequent plots will be how he cure it |
| I feel bad for Sky High now.. ; n ; .. oh well he'll find out sooner or later he killed he's girlfriend/lover/friend dang, Tiger is loosing he's power xD;;; :c I hope he doesn't though.. it be bad.. I'm guessing he's friend knows a lot about NEXTs and stuff, or maybe he used to be a NEXT? o: |
 |
| holy really? my poor tiger TwT he is losing hhis powers? no way auuu I want to know what will happen |
| Life is bittersweet can you live with that? |
| This episode was really depressing Tiger losing his powers,Sky High killed the girl he liked & it was so obvious that she was robot/cyborg I wonder what's gonna happen in next week's epi |
    |
| Poor Sky High he really had no luck with women |
 |
| Here is some insider info from the creators of T&B (spoiler because of ridiculous length) Random Facts (including Tiger's age!) Oh -KarumA- from animesuki, how I love you for posting all this stuff. |
| Wow and wow! Lots of stuff you give out and some I have some inquiries/comments about them. AstuteOtaku said: Well that is very interesting could it be a reason why she may be going to sleep sometimes early?Some stuff about the characters' houses: Karina lives with her parents in a detached house, her room is situated at the corner of the house, so it's very sunny. AstuteOtaku said: OK very nice to know that Tiger's mother is into gardening and Kaede using Kotetsu's old room is kind of ironic but hilarious. I wonder how she feels about it? The addressing question is why Kotetsu is not living with Kaede and his mother?Kotetsu's mother's home is located in a rural town. It's garden has a vegetable plot and a Japanese-style house. Kaede is currently using her father's old room. AstuteOtaku said: Who is Maverick again and ROFL @ can't slow down his fall but can jump high. That is rather hilarious.Barnaby can jump really high, but he can't slow down his fall (glide?). Barnaby was taken in by Maverick at the age of four, after his parents' murder. AstuteOtaku said: YES! I want to know that so bad! I like Lunatic. He is cool despite being strange so far.Lunatic's potential is not to be underestimated. The day when his true character and his goal will be revealed is not far off. AstuteOtaku said: Wonder if that will have any impact in the story.Barnaby is quickly nearing Legend's record. AstuteOtaku said: Well certainly USA will put lots more other sponsors and they should license this for sure. It will bring lots of companies advertisement through this anime. Especially if they license on Tele-Toon.The sponsors may change if T&B is broadcast on the foreign TV in the future. Those tidbits about Kotetsu and Barnaby that appear in the episode previews are thought out by Nishida (the scriptwriter). AstuteOtaku said: Well that's nice to know. I definitely want the answer of why he is not with his daughter and mother. I am highly assuming a tragedy happened in the past other than the one where Kaede got rescued by Bunny.Kotetsu's relationship with his family is going to be addressed in the second cour. AstuteOtaku said: I wonder why considering his hardest already past with Jake and his family dilemma.Barnaby is going to be hit pretty hard by what's coming. AstuteOtaku said: I wonder what event will that be that shall change that. Certainly that will be interesting to see as a turn of events.So far it was Kotetsu who was actively trying to get close to Barnaby (literally “snuggling to him), but later there will be a difference in the direction they are looking at. AstuteOtaku said: Oh yes! Bring in the drama! Bring in the emotions! I want to see that!There will be an unexpected development concerning Lunatic. Expect an increasing number of episodes that will bring you to tears. AstuteOtaku said: I though he was in his 30s but he does look like early 20s.Kotetsu's age is closest to Go Inoue's (Sky High's voice actor, age 33). AstuteOtaku said: ROFL! Bad vice to have in a Heroes job.Rock Bison has fear of heights. AstuteOtaku said: Not surprised he is weird himself.Fire Emblem manages weird shops as a hobby. BTW he is the one I like the least of all. AstuteOtaku said: Well eating the same food because its healthy sounds boring to me.Sky High is conscious of his health and eats the same food all year round. |
| Well first half I was like ... it was funny but I didn't really like that girl D; Totally knew she was a robot though, the instant she spoke. At first I thought the researcher guy was related to Bunny somehow (come on, the whole robot thing and the flippy hair?) but close enough. Fight scene was really cool. Poor Sky High, though, but I'm kind of glad lol :S Who is that taxi driver guy?! Kotetsu ... you can't lose your powers! >_< Lunatic again next episode ... ahhh! D: |
EvianBubble said: Who is that taxi driver guy?! Kotetsu ... you can't lose your powers! >_< Lunatic again next episode ... ahhh! D: The Taxi driver is Kotetsu former boss from episode 1. |

Yumekichi11 said: I always thought he looked younger than a lot of people kept saying, but in anime it can be tough to tell. Number one hint? No crow's feet, gray hair, or square jaw.AstuteOtaku said: I though he was in his 30s but he does look like early 20s.Kotetsu's age is closest to Go Inoue's (Sky High's voice actor, age 33). Yumekichi11 said: I do believe he's not very popular in Japan as well, he has a lot of redeeming qualities, but I have never "clicked" with him. I do love how he's trying to help out Karina with her love troubles... wonder if he's going to start working on Kotetsu's side of things? I sure would not be surprised.AstuteOtaku said: Not surprised he is weird himself.Fire Emblem manages weird shops as a hobby. BTW he is the one I like the least of all. Yumekichi11 said: It's confirmed, I freaking love this man.AstuteOtaku said: Well eating the same food because its healthy sounds boring to me.Sky High is conscious of his health and eats the same food all year round. |
AstuteOtaku said: T&B gets an original manga story in Weekly Joung Jump (Liar Game, Zetman, Gantz). Titled "Strenght in Unity", it will be written by Nishida and illustrated by Masakazu Katsura (T&B's character designer, Zetman's autor). Comes out on August 4. Most likely though it is a one shot Thank you, thank you, and THANK YOU for sharing this information(!!) Zetman is one of my favorite manga which naturally makes Katsura one of my favorite authors... One shot or not, I'm looking forward to the manga eagerly. As for the anime, more drama is always delicious. Also wanting to know more about Kotetsu's family. |
| This episode toyed with my emotions. I loved it. Most of the show had me smiling, then came the double dose of tears with Sky High and Kotetsu. :( Another note, I can't decide whether I like tsundere Bunny or the current Bunny better. Maybe this one. And yay, Lunatic Yuri next episode! |
| I always suspected he was in his very late 20s or early thirties, so no surprise here. But I am still extremely happy that he is much older than typical mainstream. Athena said: I blame forums for making me think of things entirely out of context when reading this sentence... I need brain Bleach before NEXT episode.And yay, Lunatic Yuri next episode! |
| Fantastic bittersweet - Hachiko-style - episode ! |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
ItsSoPringles said: ]you know it really reminded me of this scene from rahXephon(spoilers) anyone else get the same vibes except till the ending where theres a completly different reaction Yup. I was thinking the same thing. Also, Barnaby in a speedo. What is this I don't even... The fujoshi must have had fun with that scene. >_< |
| This show insults intelligence. I can't watch it anymore ;_; As much as I would like to finish it so I could say it sucks from the start, I'll just have to be pleased with fact that I made it so far. Gawd, it's so bad. |
bwahahachick said: I approve of this episode's use of the penis imagery with the fountain. I thought it was pretty obvious that Cis was a robot. I wish the staff made her more "human". But it was still sad nonetheless :( I really want some one to tell him instead of waiting there thinking she's coming back :c |
SuperLlama said: This is exactly what I came here to post.Oh man, I'm getting flashbacks to that one Outlaw Star episode, where the exact same thing happened between Jim and one of the Anten Seven. |
| YES!!! I knew Kotetsu wasn't that Old, me and Astute Otaku has been guessing late 20's or older 30's forever and it feels good to know we were spot on. Makes sense too, him doing it for 10 years makes puts him at 23 when starting the Hero business, makes sense to me.... Hopefully, this will chill out some of the folks who go EWW when bringing up the Blue Rose crush. The fact that she's probably 17 after the 10 month gap, and he's barely pushing into 30 means this relationship isn't impossible. All he has to do is wait a year.....18-20 year olds dating 30 year olds is VERY common folks.... |

| Not arrested, but they wouldn't be getting nice looks from people. The age of consent in japan can be as low as 13 in certain areas......nasty, but not illegal. 16 with a 39 year old might not be common here, but in japan, it does happen. Especially with situations like arranged marriages. |

Remember this IS anime, Sunrise at that. Look at Koi Kaze. He was 30, she was 15. And they were brother and sister, so our situation isn't as bad as it could be. |

longshoremanX said: Japan’s penal code does not apply statutory rape to a person over 13. What I'm saying is that its ok cause this is anime, not real life. Most sexual objects in anime and manga are almost ALWAYS the generic high school girl. Hell, most Hentai shows girls under 17. I'm saying that because we don't live in japan, we are not familiar with their customs, that's why something that might seem gross to americans is considered a fetish in japan. Same with the link you showed me, that's american opinions, so of course we say it wrong, cause it is by american standards. But in anime, I see no problem with age difference in relationships, cause its fiction. All in all, the anime character Karina aka Blue Rose being 16 is all numbers, and does not really reflect in her appearance and personality. They made her wear that VERY revealing outfit for a reason...why? Because of sex appeal. If the animators feel that she is old enough to be represented in a sexual and mature manner, then I'll take it as that. Real life 39 year old and real life 16 year old? Burn the bastard with Fire. Anime 39 year old who barely looks 26, and a anime 16 year old who looks 21, I have no problem with this. Remember logic and Anime NEVER goes hand in hand. |

bwahahachick said: I approve of this episode's use of the penis imagery with the fountain... Oh Sky High! He's so awesomely awkward. It was painfully obvious that that R. Dorothy look-alike was a robo, but not to him. It kinda reminded me of episode 19 of RahXephon, except Ayato eventually figured out what he did (damn that was depressing). It's painfully obvious that Tiger is losing his powers... and fast. I don't wanna believe it. I really don't.  |
 |
| I really like how Bunny is happier now, it makes it a lot less irritating when he outshines Tiger. Both characters have really grown on me throughout the series, definitely a solid show. I knew the girl was an android from the first moment. Not only because of her mannerisms, but also because of her resemblance to R. Dorothy Wayneright from The Big O. Her creator reminded me of Dr. Gero from Dragon Ball Z. I feel really bad for Sky High (but the part where he destroyed the android was awesome). In any case, things are really starting to get interesting. |
