I gotta admit, at the beginning I liked the other heroes except for Barnaby a lot more than Kotetsu, but he's grown on me to this point, I think this will end tragically though I have a feeling Kotetsu will die before he can come back to Kaede, and he'll do it saving someone else's life. (just a prediction, dunno at this point)

Good to see Kotetsu prioritize his daughter over his hero duties. Only thing is will future events allow him to do so?

Really enjoyed the deeper look of Kotetsu as a character. Him trying figure out what's really important in life whether it's keeping his promise to his wife or being there for his daughter.

really heart warming episode.

definitely hard to give up something that that you love.

especially the sacrifices you made just to get there.

Kotetsu is really awesome!! definitely a well develop character that has personality and a father to boot!

so his daughter inherited his powers huh? :)



seeing Kotetsu all teary is T__T



so Kotetsu will retire huh T__T

i guess it can't be help, maybe his daughter will follow his footsteps someday? :D

Wow. I really hope he doesn't get tangled up in something. A kid needs her dad.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

Huh so he's gonna resign now? So no more Tiger and Bunny? -pouts-

I hope they find a way of fixing Kotetsu's powers. Kaede is a cute little lad~

Pretty neat that she's a NEXT too!

Looking forward to next episode, expecting some more of that Ouroborus!

I thought Kotetsu's wife was Kaede from the preview of episode 16. xD lol I forget how many years has passed. .-. huh

This episode gave me the tears. ;~;

And yay, she is a NEXT! That way Tiger could tell her what he was more easily. ~ o.o
Maybe she even knows, from the light when he saved her from that house. >.>

Awesome episode. I wish Kotetsu'd actually retire right away, but don't see it happening with so many episodes left and the preview.

This episode was a nice way to get away from all those city shenanigans!

I would have liked this episode more if Kaede wasn't SO FUCKING ANNOYING.

Kaede was such a spoiled brat. Looks like her being locked in that shrine during the thunderstorm taught her a lesson though. Hopefully she won't be such a bitch to her awesome father anymore.

Looks like Kaede's starting to become a NEXT. I'm assuming offspring can inherit superpowers from their parents then?

So is Kotetsu planning to resign from being a hero and focus more on his family? Who knows?

Great episode anyways despite Kaede being annoying.

8/10

nice episode. Got to see tiger finally interact with his kid and have a nice family moment. Also seems like powers run in the family. Wonder if she would take the mantel.

Hmm interesting, so the power of parents will go to their child
Just like Akatsuki no Yona..
Well maybe not really

Kaede is a pretty stupid kid. She cuts out all of wild tiger and doesn't even recognise the attire, the hair, build etc. How can she not realise her old man's a hero. And the fact he's missing when shit happens. Off course we the viewer are given almost a god's lense into the situation but there are just too many red lights for her not to notice...

At first I thought it was obvious, surely, but that line about lining up all night to get Barnaby's autograph. Come on kid, well she inherited his power alright, but also his deduction skills...

The episode might have left on a seemingly positive note, but the story is actually getting darker to me. Let's hope Kotetsu isn't losing his powers for real.

What a great episode but the way it ended so positively makes me worried that things are about to get really dark.

I cried! and I laughed! and I face palmed! 3 things I need in every series I come across and this one is doing a great job at providing that with each episode that I watch. I love that I got to see more of Tigers past life and the bond between him and his daughter grow and become anew. I was going to really get upset if he kept blowing off going to see his family before things serious were to happen to his mother. This development is hopefully a good thing for our Tiger! I'm still curious about what he will do, will he quit being a hero? or keep pushing forward until his powers fully stop working altogether. I'm super excited to find out.

Emotional episode for me. Glad to see their relationship improve. I wish he would be able to keep his promise to return in a few days, but that seems unlikely. I think he'd find his job behind a father more rewarding, especially since he could train her to be a hero (if that's what she wants).

the scene w kotetsu and kaede inside the shrine reminded me of that one ghost stories hospital scene from the dub; "oh daddy!" screams the protagonist (i forgot her name ofc) while hugging her father and brother. im giggling. very touching episode tho.

To be fair, you can't suggest taking a bath with your 10-year-old daughter and expect her not to call you a pervert.

Also, Kaede is not an idiot; surely, she realizes that Kotetsu is Tiger, right?

Anyway, great episode - maybe the best in the series. I love Kotetsu's brother (voiced by Kirk Thornton in the dub - way cool!); shame they didn't use him more. Plus, Kaede revealing her NEXT powers was awesome!

Tough granny.

Tiger is out of touch with being a dad. He missed out on a lot and he gotta realize that he can't just approach his daughter as when she was a little girl. He's closer to a stranger than a dad now. But all well that ends well.

I feared that he would retire....or perhaps not, season 2 will be a thing xD
