Are the two Tiger and Bunny movies good? What did you think of them?

in my opinion, yes ! they are! i personally think the second one, The Rising, is the better of the two but I think they’re both very solid movies !I actually usually recommend watching The Beginning instead of the first two episodes of the anime !! The Beginning contains both episodes -- with extra content in between (usually character interactions) -- plus pretty much an extra episode that you wouldnt see otherwise ! I think The Beginning also does a good/better job of setting up why Kotetsu really didnt like Barnaby at first too? In my humble opinion, The Beginning really shows how different their ways of thinking are and why they’d fight so much early on! Plus I like seeing more of how the other heroes react to how Barnaby is at the beginningI like the villain in The Beginning, I think his NEXT power is really interesting and I like his personality! I wish we could’ve seen a little more of him, to be honest!! I liked him better than almost all of the minor villains (other than Edward of course i love him).I’d definitely recommend The Beginning but if you’ve already seen the first two episodes of Tiger and Bunny and don’t really want to watch them again then its kinda tedious..especially since you’ll miss a lot of new content if you skip to when the new villain appearsThe Rising tbh... there’s a lot to say about Rising but the first thing that comes to mind is I like how we get to learn more about the setting.. learn about the Goddess and Justice Day was so nice ! I’m a huge sucker for world building so I really enjoyed learning more about Sternbild... I liked the story of the Goddess too ! I do want to see more of the places outside Sternbild, though-- we get a little taste of it (learning that not being from ‘around Sternbild’ means you don’t know the story of the Goddess) but I want More !! Speaking of not being from around Sternbild though... okay, I guess the fandom really likes the new hero Ryan but I honestly? Don’t. Although I do like the foil he offers to Barnaby and the other heroes (but less so)-- he really comes off as jarring and out of place. I do wish we had seen like, the other heroes interact with him more? We mostly just see Barnaby which makes sense but also... I want to see how he treats the other heroes and how they react to him... The villain of The Rising.......god I loved it? It wasn’t as big of a twist as the End Of The Series but I still genuinely didn’t see who it Really was coming. I like their motives and I really like how they’re kinda morally grey... yes what they are doing is Bad but maybe the person who theyre targeting kinda deserves it? Lunatic does make an appearance but honestly I wished he did more. He kinda appeared and then fucked off BUT MY FAV PART OF RISING... I loved Nathan’s arc (I guess its an arc??).. I’ve talked about this before with friends but I really? related to how they were portrayed? as a trans person myself who changed gender identity quite a bit at the beginning I really related ! plus i related to feeling overwhelmed by how people look at you when youre trans... and having an unsupportive family... plus seeing a canonly trans character was really nice. I do have issues with the occasional like, weird jokes with Nathan (You Know The Ones if you’ve seen the show) but what did I expect from a 2011 anime,, I’m glad it was pretty much dropped after the first episode or so and only comes up like. twice after thatI do wish the dub used they/them pronouns like the Japanese version instead of he/him though,, thats the One (1) issue i have with the Dub, I also really like seeing the characters interact (notably Keith, Ivan and Antonio hanging out !!!!!) and I could ramble about that but this is already really long !! but do know that I’m glad Antonio got a Moment for himself but I really wish he got more of a focus,,, if theres every a season 2 please god let Antonio have an episode to himself,,, ANYWAYS TL;DR: I HEAVILY recommend The Rising and also recommend The Beginning but less so!! I really enjoyed the Tiger and Bunny movies and I rewatch The Rising a lot !
