to:

* Quite plausible, considering that the whole reason that Maverick [[spoiler: needed to tweak Barnaby's memory in Episode 19 was because Samantha showed him the contradictory photo. This basically confirms that Barnaby could regain his memories without enough of Maverick's influence. ''Then'' his memory of Kotetsu is later regained simply by Kotetsu calling him "Bunny" instead of needing actual reversal like the other heroes got (likely because this was another "unexpected" thing). Maverick's powers]] obviously aren't full proof.

to:

* He ''does'' specifically make a comment about Kotetsu's views on justice when [[spoiler: saving him from the other heroes]]! Not ''quite'' this [=WMG=], but it's close; it could easily happen if the show gets another season.



* Barnaby is most recent prisoner and Saito's chamber is relly strenghtening memory-alerting process.

* Barnaby is most recent prisoner and Saito's chamber is relly strenghtening really strengthening memory-alerting process.




to:

** He ''is'' down to only a minute by the end of the show, so it's doubtful that his powers will last much longer after then, at least.



* And to that end, [[spoiler: Maverick deliberately caused Barnaby to 'remember' Jake's face, knowing that when Jake 'escaped' that a) Jake would do something significant and b) Barnaby would be around to find the killer he has been after. The result was massive public support for the heroes' victory.

* The fact that Kotetsu occasionally wears a mask while in his Godot-like outfit just ''adds'' to the series of coincidences with the two.

to:

* Muramasa never seems to have the problem with [[spoiler: attracting random objects like Kaede did in the part where that's revealed]], though. It could just be an example of PowerIncontinence, but it seems unlikely. That doesn't completely rule out the possibility of Muramasa having some other [=NEXT=] power, though.

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.

If you can't beat them, join them- and then corrupt them! It would explain how the old-style heroes were replaced by a less-caring generation; the villains bought all the big companies and then lured the younger heroes with offers of fame and fortune. As their 'sponsors' they can keep track of them and keep them busy and off their true affairs (the robbers are mooks paid to take a dive.) Of course this will be discovered by the end of the series, a big battle ensues and then all will be well. Note that each company that owns a hero has a name out of GreekMythology; the Uroboros symbol is *also* of classical origins. This leads to my next WMG:

[[WMG: Kaede will become a counselor for young NEXT]]
A youngster's developing NEXT powers can be a difficult experience, as seen with cases like Kotetsu and Tony (who used to hate their powers) or Yuri ([[spoiler:who killed a man with them early on]]). Kaede's power could actually be well suited to helping kids with budding NEXT abilities. The nature of her power would likely require her to learn a lot about different powers for the simple reason that if she comes into contact with a NEXT she doesn't know she would have to be able to quickly get a handle on whatever power she gets to avoid collateral damage.

Now present her with a young NEXT who may fear his own powers. Or one who can't entirely control them. Using her power, Kaede, combined with the necessary research mentioned above, could demonstrate that a power ''is'' controllable or nothing to fear. If a child has a power that potentially makes day-to-day life difficult, well, so does she. Her powers potentially make her an ideal counselor for NEXT youths by simple virtue of being able to show them YouAreNotAlone.

The show is already setting up a contrast between Wild Tiger's old-fashioned idealism and [[TheMessiah deep committment to the value of human life]] versus Lunatic's KnightTemplar vigilantism. Barnaby, with his personal vendetta against Ouroboros and emotional baggage regarding his parents' murder, is somewhere in the middle, and it'll be up to Kotetsu to talk him down from making the wrong decision.
