no subject
Didn't realize there was an anime too, though that isn't exactly surprising. Good to know it's a decent one! (They often aren't.)
Oh, and thanks!

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)Someone once described it to me as "A comically invincible bald guy and his cyborg waifu fight crime."
They were joking around, but it's not an entirely inaccurate summary.

And the anime is as good as the manga? I want to watch this. I don't have time for it right now, but I really want to.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)No problem, you're welcome ^_^
I really like how the story works on different levels. On the one side it's a parody of super heroes.
On the other side it's making a social commentary on the state Japan's youth is living in nowadays. The whole salary man - culture of working hard for working's sake gets critizized and questioned. Viewing this level of the manga the whole superhero system is a stand-in for the salary man system.
Oh, and the comedy is very funny, a thing that never hurts.

Welp, now I'm thinking of Samurai Flamenco. It isn't that level of crazy, is it? (Rest assured, if it is that will only interest me further.)
But I like media that can make social commentary in a clever, even humorous way, so it sounds like something I'd be into.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)Hm, I've only seen the first Episode of Samurai Flamenco so I can't really tell. But I think it shares some elements with Tiger And Bunny though it is more extreme than this one.
But it funnily plays with the many tropes superheroes managed to collect over all these years. And I think it does so very cleverly. Especially once the introduction arc is over and the bigger story comes into play.
And it gives its social commentary with a lightness that doesn't make it appear preachy.
no subject
So if it's anything like Tiger and Bunny then I imagine it'll be a good watch.
I see that there's currently 12 episodes and two OVA's, with four more planned. Is there not supposed to be a second season?
