(T&B[ros]unny)

I don't know.

d'awww Karina

been hittin' the bottle lately

So who gave Bunny that ring?

>>52843332
So does Kaede retain powers from people that she touched permanently making her a hodgepodge like Crystal of the Inhumans or is her power probably just like Rogue's in the sense that it lasts until she touches someone else?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uLczCDk56k

>>52843585
most likely the latter. if she had hundred power she could have gotten the metal stuff sticking to her while she was a magnet off easy

>>52843332
>Antonio behind Nathan
>not the other way around

>>52843332
So many powers.

Except Origami's.

>>52843532
>ass tentacles
what

Wait, Rock Bison has a power?

>>52843332
>that feel when you're automatically looking for Ivan, but he really isn't there

>>52843666
Maybe he is disguised as Jake.

>>52843738
Aaaahhh. I keep forgetting that he can do that.

Whose power is magnetism, anyway? Is it Muramasa?

I was rewatching Barnaby's conversation with Samantha in episode 18, and I noticed that while the subs use "Master Barnaby", I don't think she ever actually refers to him by his name. She just calls him "bocchan" or something. Can someone who is better at listening to moonspeak confirm whether she refers to him by his name in that chat?

If she touched Jake, do you think she'd get both his powers? Or just one?

>>52843843
We're guessing so. Or his mother's. Otherwise, how would they know that she imitates someones power?

>>52843843
The better question is: when did she touch such a person.

>>52843849
>>52843849
"Bocchama" means "Young Master"

>>52843671
No dude, those are just her--

--oh my shit they are tentacles aren't they WHAT THE FUCK

>>52844008
TIGER&BUNNY

>>52843577

Maverick

>>52843849

I think she calls him 'Young Master', basically.

>>52844042
thankies ^^

>>52843577
The former Green Lantern.

>>52844038
I thought they were vines.

>>52844135
Normally they are. I guess her butthurt mutated them?

It´s the middle of the fucking week. Stop circlejerking, faggots.

>>52843849
No, she never calls him by name. In his flashbacks of his parents, they never call him by name either. Even his birthday cake had no name written on it.

>>52844135
They're supposed to be

But something has gone very very wrong in that picture

Kotetsu's brother is the one who said that Kaede's power comes from touching NEXTs, right? He either knows someone with magnetism, or he's just guessing.

Unless like Jake (who is much older than Kotetsu) Tiger is indeed developing a new power and it's magnetism...

>>52844162
Should've said that last thread, this one has actual discussion in it.

>>52844162
Speculations have no limits.

>>52844166
That's because w dont know his real name yet
Barnaby is his fathers name
Also robots dont have names

>>52844162 It´s the middle of the fucking week. Stop circlejerking, faggots.

>>52844166
Neither does Rotwang. All the people who know Barnaby from his past just refer to him as "you" and never by name.

>>52844201

Tiger with magnetic power would be hilarious

>>52844246
There should be a Yuri edit of this

>>52844230
>that feel when it turns out Barnaby's real name actually is Bunny

I wonder if the thing about Kotetsu and Bunny's power being the same will ever be addressed? It hasn't really been brought up ever, so I'm not sure if it's even supposed to be a thing we should be considering. If it's not plot important I don't think it'll ever be cleared up.

>>52844296
I snorted

>>52844223
Barnaby is already on the path to becoming another Mr. Legend.

I bet Magneto is someone totally innocuous like the clerk at the convenience store and all our speculah will have been for nothing.

>>52844166
That's because we don't know his real name. He took his father's name after his parents' deaths.

>>52844223

>>52844251
Really? Why do I think the reveal of Barnaby's name is going to be a big moment now?

Are there any other names that could keep the Bunny nickname?

>>52843332
This picture makes me think... What if Kaede touches a NEXT who has two powers, like Jake, which power would she copy? When she learns to control her powers would she be able to choose?

>>52844272
Hahaha oh wow, fucking seconded.

>>52844436
>Are there any other names that could keep the Bunny nickname?
Why would they need to?

How much of a game breaker would she be if she actually kept all of them, like Kotetsu asked.

>distant epilogue: Kaede becomes the ultimate Hero.

>>52844352
>>52844223
Oh wow, just looking at those two pics it really does look like he just ballooned.

>>52844354
I've always believed that.

If either Muramasa or Anju had NEXT powers, you'd think they would've taught Kotetsu a thing or two and he wouldn't have been so distraught when he was little.

>>52844436
Why would it matter? The nickname "Bunny" doesn't come from Barnaby.

I want that moment when Kotetsu stops talking to Kaede in his "Daddy voice" and it scares the hell out of her.

>>52844651

Nope

>>52844734

Next episode I bet

>>52844714
It's random when you get them, they could've got them well into adulthood.

KAEDE KEEPS ALL OF HER POWERS AND TURNS EVIL

FUCKING CALLING IT

>>52844714
Keep in mind that NEXT powers can develop at any age, so it's possible they didn't have them when Kotetsu was a kid.

>>52844836
>>52844857
Yeah, but it would seem kind of random and unnecessary at this point to introduce more NEXTs in Kotetsu's family just to give Kaede an excuse to have magnetic powers that are probably irrelevant in the larger scale of things.

>>52844836
>>52844857
>>52844714
But if either of them had NEXT powers, they should be able to handle Kaede themselves and not pester Kotetsu into coming home (well, not for that reason, anyway).

I imagine that Jake with the ability to read minds learned to hate humans more when he'd hear their thoughts about him.

I wonder if he had both powers at once or developed the other later.

>>52844714
What Kotetsu learned form his family was to never, ever speak to people - I presume from example. I think Muramasa is Magneto, and his never mentioning while telling Kotetsu to talk more is pure hypocrisy.

>>52844991
Well, Muramasa has a job, and their mother is getting older.

>>52844734
I'm half expecting a serious "one of Daddy's friends is going through a really rough time right now" talk when she calls him.

Or he could just deflect more, but I really hope he fucking spills already. If Kaede really saw him looking hurt and sad I think she'd relent. No one is immune to the oyaji moe

>>52845045
>What Kotetsu learned form his family was to never, ever speak to people

What do you base this on?

If Muramasa or Anju was Magneto, couldn't they just have removed the pots and pans from Kaede with their own, presumably stronger and more controlled power?

>>52845045
Muramasa was the one who pestered Kotetsu into talking about his problems, remember? And remarked on how Kotetsu was always keeping things to himself. I don't think he'd say either of that if he were that kind of person.

>>52844697
Actually, his neck is better proportioned in here than in >>52844223 according to his muscle structure. and >>52844352 is just horrendous, but the way they applied the shadows is half of the problem

The Barnaby we know is a robot. The real one exists elsewhere but his powers were too strong to handle and his mind was downloaded into a body. The original body was able to regain sentience and will be the final boss.

>>52845118
She was immune to the headpat. Plus she looked fucking pissed in the preview.

>>52845142
Yeah, this. Unless they're hiding their powers from Kaede too, for whatever reason.

>>52845142

Yeah, neither one have powers.

>>52845118
>really really really
Oh god sorry, apparently I cannot into English today

>>52845127
Who else would he have learned it from?

Kaede wasn't acting like a bar magnet; she attracted metal from all directions, which is characteristic of a magnetic monopole. Activating a second monopole wouldn't be helpful.

T&B thread? Sweet, more people need to see this.

OP2 here http://www.mediafire.com/?668v4mcf1job8su

>>52844991
>>52844970
This leads me to believe that a NEXT does not necessarily need to be awoken for Kaede to copy their power.

>>52845172

>>52845243
Based on what Muramasa said, that's just Kotetsu's native personality to begin with. I don't think anybody taught him to be like that, it's just how he's like.

full 2nd ending when?

Daddy needs to give a spanking or two

>>52843629
Who did she touch that had a magnet power, anyway?

Origami Cyclone = First Hero to Die
FUCKING CALLING IT!

>>52845243
>real magnet logic
What are you DOING

>>52845311
Could be.

Monopoles destroy electronics, btw; the magnet trick is an android killer.

>>52845172
But that would make Maverick Shion. Do we really want that?

>>52845243
It has never been mentioned that anyone taught Kotetsu to never ever speak to people
His mother and brother seem to be straight-forward people, if anything, Kotetsu would have learned to go straight to the issue.

The reason he always keeps things to himself could be because of whatever the relationship with his dad was. Possible divorce. Bullying.

>>52845370
You are a bad fake origami

>>52845411
Kotetsu brings Kaede to see Barnaby and she shows off her powers to impress him. However Barnaby dies from this and Kaede goes into a permanent coma having killed her idol.

>>52845469
the real one went on vacation this week and he asked for somebody to keep doing it

>>52844991
His family is pressuring him because he (rather thoughtlessly) assured them that he's going to come back straight away and because he refuses to provide a good explanation for his current continued absence. From their point of view, he is simply dragging his feet as always.

>>52845459
I agree. Tiger's abrupt infatuation with Legend suggests a child with Daddy issues.

>>52845177
If he really serioused the fuck up and stopped blustering and deflecting I think she'd understand. It's not forever, he really is going to retire, but his friend is having a mental breakdown right now and Kotetsu is really his only support system.

It's not like they show the entire phone convo in the preview or anything.

>>52845459
Or Kotetsu learned not to bother his mother and brother with his problems when he saw how busy they were trying to raise a family without a man in the house.

It doesn't have to be completely traumatizing, you know...

>>52845563

That explains why it's been so spotty, finding threads on greenoval has been a bitch.

>>52845459

Well, his mom wears a ring so no divorce. Maybe death. He was the youngest child by quite a few years it seems, that could be more of the issue. He could have just learned to keep things to himself so as not to burden his family. Or it could just be his personality.

>>52845411 Monopoles destroy electronics, btw; the magnet trick is an android killer.

So, what if the following were true:
-Kotetsu is actually in the transition of gaining another power
-Kaede's magnetic power was taken from Kotetsu
-Barnaby is an android

As a result, Barnaby and Kotetsu wouldn't be allowed to be close to one another.

>>52845575
But they made it sound more like "we need you to help manhandle Kaede because you're a NEXT," not "Kaede needs you here because you promised." If they were NEXTs themselves they should already have experience with that, not to mention Anju already dealt with Shotatetsu becoming a NEXT.

Plus, if they're trying to keep Kaede from breaking the entire house, Kotetsu's more likely to accidentally break more things than he is to help.

Screenshot this
>Tiger is going to regain his powers
>none of the super heroes will die
>Tiger will tell Kaede his secret
>Tiger will move back with Kaede
>Bunny will continue to work solo
>Bluerose will move to stalk tiger.
>time Skip 7 years
>Kaede is the new Tiger and Partner to Bunny

>>52845459
There doesn't have to be any particular reason. People are born with innate traits and tendencies, and his covert introversion is most likely simply a part of his nature. Not everything needs some traumatic catalyst.

>>52845853

Nope

>>52845763
Then we find out that Barnaby has been going haywire because of Kotetsu's magnetism

dohohoho

Barnaby is neither an android nor a robot. Stop this shit altogether.

>>52845912
Maybe that's why Cis malfunctioned so badly

>>52845845
Yeah, exactly. It wasn't "COME BACK RIGHT NOW YOU PROMISED" but "COME BACK RIGHT NOW JESUS CHRIST WE CAN'T CONTROL HER." The urgency was specifically due to Kaede's powers.

>>52845966
Her Lolita animal magnetism was too much for them.

>>52845853
That sounds like a shitty end.

And this is why you should wear a condom.

>>52845862
six fingers

>>52846118
Haha oh wow. Never noticed that

>>52845966
It's always good to have more hands available, especially if he himself is a Hundred Power user. There's probably also that "You're her dad, so do something about it!" angle.
Anyway, those scenes were presented rather comically overall, so I don't believe the viewer is supposed to think it's that critical or urgent.

>>52845853
So basically your speculation is that nothing important or game-changing will happen between now and the end of the series.

Hasn't Kaede exhibited three powers now? The first was some sort of gravity defying power when chasing the train, The second was hundred power, and the third was magnetism.

>>52845966
And Muramasa knows his powers are fading, so what, did they want him to Hundred Power headlock her while he still could or something? They were even on him after they realized her power wasn't Hundred Power.

This makes me wonder if there's some kind of NEXT school aside from the hero academy. It would definitely come in handy for things like this...

>>52846232
No. 100 power and magnets

so grandmother has power of flight, brother is magneto, and he has hundred power?

that is unless once she copies a power she can use it whenever she wants...

>>52846249

I really think it's just frustration and they don't want to deal with it when he said he would come back. Though the scenes were mostly comical

>>52845845

That bugged me. What exactly can he do that they can't, aside from being an extra hand to fix whatever she breaks. I guess he could coach her, but now that we know it's not 100 power he can't be that helpful in that regard. Maybe just for moral support?

Actually, him coaching her on using 100 power would have been really cute. If she was younger. And she actually liked him.

Honestly, I'm really trying to like Kaede, and I do empathize with her and think she's realistically written, I just want her to shut up.

>>52846180
>Anyway, those scenes were presented rather comically overall, so I don't believe the viewer is supposed to think it's that critical or urgent.

Well, the critical part is supposed to be that he made a promise so he has to go back. The comparatively lighthearted stuff with her powers going out of control is, I think, supposed to add urgency, or else the question would be, "Why the fuck don't they leave him alone, let him finish up his business for godssakes, I mean he's only leaving his ENTIRE LIFE behind." It would look really bitchy for them to be rushing him if that element weren't there.

>>52846304

where do you get that from?

>>52845853
>Tiger is going to regain his powers and stop being a hero

>>52846249

so, her class is full of next, like shinji's class was full of eva pilot candidates?

yfw the roles switch and in the next episode Kotetsu talks to Barnaby like a daddy and to Kaede with a poker face.

>>52846325

The only problem I have with Kaede is she's not really a character. You could replace her with any kid and it'd be the same thing. She's just a symbol if anything and we never actually see anything from her side for the most part. You are just supposed to feel for her because she's a kid.

Oh fuck, imagine if how they discover Lunatic's identity is if Kaede shows up at one of Kotestu's court things looking for him and suddenly she has his fire powers
