He looks like a Gryphon, or an eagle, with that suit! Golden eagle, maybe? Also, increasing gravity? I can't see how that'd become a plot point later on.
I'm guessing this takes place after Tiger can only use his ability for one minute.
I hope those wings are retractable.
Loves feel-good animation a whole lot.Arise, T&Bros! For we hath the latest trailer!
Looks like we have new supervillains! Whoo-hoo!

Neither can I! Darn, this thing was supposed to arrive on September... I only hope it's as good as they promised!
On related news, the Character Page for the movie got updated: http://www.tigerandbunny.net/world/character.html
Just finished the series. The first season was great but the second was kind of sub-par.
... Golden Ryan? Really?
@Shota
- Siblings. She's the younger sibling to the older one, Sam.
Sunrise is holding a concert in September to celebrate the 4th anniversary of T&B.
But more importantly, there apparently will be a new animated short!
About time! What happened to the 2nd movie though?
The Rising? In which sense?
Did it ever come out? If so I missed it.
Yup! You should watch it! It was pretty cool. The pacing was a bit rushed, but what it did right, it did it oh so right!
Where can I find it?
(PM me the address if you aren't allowed to post it.)

Bumping because i'm watching now, at the climax of the mini-arc about Maverick's memory tampering. Not knowing the resolution yet, the whole thing seems a mad case of Villain Ball, since all he had to do was modify Tiger and Samantha's memories, unless he just got so short-sighted that he wanted to do the whole "Kotetsu as an outlaw" thing as a one-off ratings stunt, which would waste a lot of his capital.
Not necessarily. He was mainly trying to let Kotetsu hang himself with the alterations of the others. And Samantha served his purposes as a corpse.
But to what end, aside from his ratings stunt for the show? It seems like he had a problem with a two-step solution and instead devised a five-step solution where elements were much further out of his control.
I do like that they brought Kaede in. When they had the scene with Kaeda and her grandma watching the TV, i thought "in an American show, the girl and the grandma would gear up to go help Kotetsu. In a Japanese show they'll stay sidelined." It subverted my expectations nicely, and Tiger even saw Kaede as a worthy contributor instead of someone he had to protect.
Well you have to remember, the whole show *is* an intentional homage to American comics right down to the occasional lack of logic. The important thing is that they got even that done in an entertaining way.
How's the manga compare to the anime btw? I've only seen the anime and not anything else.
Is likely getting another anime project
Every accusation by the GOP is ALWAYS a confession.New Season, OVA or Movie?
New season according to both Crunchyroll and ANN.
The ANN Article. There is also apparently a live action Hollywood version being made.
The original television anime series centers around heroes for hire — super powered beings known as NEXT who wear sponsor logos while fighting crime on live television.
Keiichi Satou (Karas director, The Big O character/mechanical designer) directed the anime, and Masafumi Nishida (live-action Kaibutsu-kun) wrote and oversaw the scripts. Manga artist Masakazu Katsura (Video Girl Ai, DNA², I''s, Zetman), a well-known fan of Batman and other superhero comics, created the original character designs.
The 2011 anime series spawned two anime movies: Tiger & Bunny the Movie: The Beginning in 2012 and Tiger & Bunny The Movie -The Rising- in 2014. Viz released the television series, the films, and the tie-in manga in North America.
Ron Howard and Brian Grazer of Imagine Entertainment are producing a live-action Hollywood film adaptation of the anime. All Nippon Entertainment Works CEO Sandy Climan and Bandai Namco Pictures' Masayuki Ozaki are also producing the film project. Imagine Entertainment President Erica Huggins is overseeing the project. The producers have hired Ellen Shanman as a scriptwriter
A live action movie as well? That might actually work, and it avoids the "but the actors aren't Asian!" problem with Anime adaptations because its an American-style superhero series set in a New York stand-in city. I hope its good.
More details on Golden Ryan, most notably his suit and his power (increasing the gravity of an area (approximately 30m diameter) around him). In case you haven't seen it and stuff.
Holy Grail, huh? Cool story, bro.
