History WMG / TigerAndBunny

Not the flying bit - but ''when'' the powers activated. This might be closer to FridgeLogic here, but bear with me. We know that both Kotetsu and [[spoiler: Yuri]] activated their powers when they were rather young. Kotetsu looks like he's about eight in the scene with Mr. Legend and [[spoiler: Yuri appears to be a young teen.]] Pao-Lin is still only about twelve. Barnaby, Ivan, and Antonio have all had their powers at least since high-school. (Both Barnaby and Ivan attended the Hero Academy, meaning they were most likely in middle school or junior high when their powers activated. Antonio is shown to already be invulnerable during a fight with Kotetsu in high school in a Drama CD). Karina is only sixteen, and she's already an established Hero when the series starts, so there's no way of telling how long she's had them for - but still, sixteen. [[spoiler: Kaede]] is the only NEXT whose powers we actually ''see'' activate for the first time and she's also in her early teens at that point. So the average age for powers to activate seems to be somewhere between, say, eight and fourteen. Sky High mentions in episode 15 that his powers didn't activate until he was ''eighteen.'' So in terms of powers...[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything he's a late bloomer.]]

[[WMG: Barnaby is a [[{{Tykebomb}} subject of Project]] BatmanBeyond]]

[[WMG: Tiger&Bunny is in the same universe as {{Empowered}}. ]]

* Well, we certainly know who is [[{{Maverick}} Holding All The Cards]].

[[WMG: Season 2 (if there is one) will have one of the NEXTs with weird/lame powers save the day]]

[[spoiler: whipping memories of the entire city]]. Forty years later Jake will return [[spoiler: being brought back to life by Union]] as a cybrg, to fight another Batman-like protagonist, under the nickname [[TheBigO Alan Gabriel]].

[[WMG:The pins Kotetsu got are a ChekovsGun that will end up [[spoiler:jogging Barnaby's memories.]]]]

* [[YuriGenre Yuri]]. [[XJustX YURI.]]

* His costume is reminiscent of a moon, and he often appears in moonlight; the moon motif is often associated with womanhood.

** Almost, [[spoiler: she uses Maverick's power to SpiritBomb most of the heroes, but Barnaby got there afterwards and Kaede was touched on the shoulder by Sky High in between times so Kotetsu had to resort to a IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight to restore his memories.]].

... But still continue his work as a hero. This is a guy who'd spend his free time in high school delivering street justice -- often ''without'' using his powers -- and trying to come up with his future superhero name. Now combine this with Kotetsu himself motivating Ivan into heroism despite the perceived uselessness of his powers, and you've got someone who's very unlikely to accept retirement, willing ''or'' forced. Besides, [[{{Batman}} it's]] [[IronMan not]] [[CaptainAmerica like]] [[{{Huntress}} we've]] [[GreenArrow never]] [[TheQuestion heard]] [[{{Nightwing}} of]] [[TheSpirit unpowered]] [[{{Watchmen}} heroes]] [[Comicbook/BlackWidow before...]]

[[WMG: Barnaby's real name also starts with a B.]]
Because the whole AlliterativeName gag wouldn't be lost. Dibs on Brian, Bernard, Benjamin, Bradley... Or, you know, [[EmbarrassingFirstName Bunny]].
