Tiger & Bunny (2011) s01e14 Episode Script

Love Is Blind.

1 Heroes… They are symbols of hope and justice for mankind.
HERO TV… Special! For the 22 million citizens of Sternbild, the wait is now over.
Here are the stars of today's show! The Hero world's super tag team! Tiger & Barnaby! Hello.
Tiger & Barnaby… Barnaby Brooks Jr.
, the new Hero who has had a stunning debut… And Wild Tiger, the veteran Hero… The world's first Heroic duo leapt to fame ten months ago during their fierce battle with the terrorist Jake Martinez.
They began their rise to stardom by defeating this terrible foe! What are your thoughts on your accomplishments so far? I think you made us out to be cooler than we actually are.
I'm only stating the facts.
Right, everyone? Yeah! The rest is history! The two have since worked together to save us from all sorts of danger.
They have also managed to prevent Lunatic from taking further casualties.
And in last year's annual ranking, Mr.
Tiger placed fourth, and Mr.
Barnaby was first place and MVP! This current season has just begun, but you two appear to be in top shape! He's quite amazing to be able to come this far in just a year.
Right, partner? Please, stop that.
One thing that I am concerned with is the fact that Jake's accomplice, Miss Kriem, has yet to make a statement.
Though I was unable to discover Jake's reasons for killing my parents, or any further details of the crime syndicate Ouroboros, I do feel a sense of relief.
He went through a pretty rough time, but he always managed to remain poised.
He sure is something.
No, I couldn't have achieved this without your support, Tiger.
Nah, it's all because of your hard work, Bunny.
No, you… No, you… Take a look at that! What a beautiful partnership! Oh… Did you two always get along this well? We've always been like this, right, Bunny? Yes.
We were like this from the beginning.
Liars! Didn't those two always fight when they first started? Yeah, Mr.
Barnaby kept calling Mr.
Tiger an old man.
Not to mention he hated being called Bunny.
But now he doesn't seem to mind.
Things sure do change, don't they? What's bugging you, young lady? What? Nothing's bugging me.
You're just depressed that your ranking dropped, aren't you?! Why don't you speak for yourself? Unlike you, I'm not in last place! Don't remind me… You miss him, don't you? Huh? You haven't seen Tiger because he's been so busy lately.
That's why you're… Stop that! I don't miss him at all! I don't miss him… Oh? Is there trouble? No, I just have an announcement to make.
Huh? I already talked to your manager.
Your next single is going to be a special collaboration.
Collaboration? Who am I teaming up with? Tiger and Barnaby.
What?! Heroes are growing in popularity, so it's sure to sell.
Oh yeah, the debut event is going to be live, so I want you to teach them how to dance.
I'm counting on you.
Why do I have to teach them? Why should I? Umm… I'm looking forward to the first Tiger & Barnaby CD! I'm not good at singing.
I'd rather quit being a Hero than do this.
You can't quit! Don't say you'll quit ever again.
Uh… Okay… You must be hungry.
I'll get some lunch for you.
Mr.
Lloyds has changed, hasn't he? You're telling me.
Hey, Blue Rose! Jeez, hurry up and get ready! I'm giving you personal lessons, after all! Oh, right.
I look forward to learning from you.
Do you guys even know how to dance? Try not to get in my way, okay? Don't worry! I know a few moves.
Wow, you suck! You're no good at all.
Hey, you finally smiled.
H-Hurry up and get changed.
Huh? It's gone! My note is gone.
So? There's no need to stress over it.
You don't understand! My boyfriend wrote it for me! It only said where you're going to meet him.
I want to keep everything when it's from someone I like! Oh, fine… Help us out, Karina.
Hey, are you listening? I wonder if I'm in love? What?! Wait, you've fallen in love with someone? Well, not exactly.
There's this guy that's on my mind.
And I keep staring at him whenever he's around.
It sounds like you're totally in love with him! But I don't know what's so great about him at all.
I mean… He's incredibly rude.
And, he's incredibly irresponsible… And to top it all off, he's incredibly goofy.
Even the other day, he… My towel! There's nothing good about him! I know, right?! But for some reason, I can't keep my eyes off him.
That's not love.
Huh? You can't keep your eyes off of him because he's such a klutz.
You're worried about what he's going to end up doing? You're right.
There's no way I'd fall for a guy like him.
But wouldn't this be considered love? What? He calls me by my nickname.
Nickname? Yeah.
Hey, Blue Rose! I don't care when other people do it, but I want him to call me by my real name.
Isn't that love? Yeah, that's definitely love! That's not love either! What? It just means you don't like that nickname, Karina! Oh… I see.
You're right.
Why are you doing this to her? Karina is definitely in love! I know that.
You're not trying to ruin this just because you're jealous of her, are you? That's not it.
She's not very honest with herself, so if she worries about this too much, she's sure to screw things up.
I guess this isn't love, then… One, two, three… … four, five… … six, seven… … eight… Dadada, dan! You're off by a beat, Tiger.
What? I was? At least get it right in our last practice session.
Why don't we take a little break? What are you saying? You're the one who needs the most practice! I can't have a breakthrough without taking a break.
What's wrong with him? I thought the same thing.
You also thought of that lame joke about taking a break? No, I meant that I used to wonder what was wrong with him, too.
Oh… But after working with Kotetsu, I began to realize that he's the kind of man who thinks about others before himself.
I'm sure he decided to take that break so we wouldn't get tired of practice.
Really? It sure didn't look like that to me.
Don't worry.
He'll be ready by the concert.
He won't let us down.
You really have changed.
Oh.
That was a short break.
Actually, Blue Rose here.
Huh? What's this? I ruined your towel, remember? So, here.
For me? Kaburagi Wine & Spirits I don't think she's going to feel comfortable using that towel.
That's not true! Right? Huh? W-Well, if you're asking if I like it or not, then… I kind of don't.
I see.
B-But I don't have a towel, so I'll use it.
I don't really have a choice.
Good for you.
Sorry about your towel.
It's all right.
I'm taking a break, too.
Say! Are you… free tonight? Five, six, seven, eight… Dadada, dan! All right! I finally got it! Then, can I go home already? Yeah.
Bunny won't be making fun of me now, thanks to you.
Is that so? Huh? Are you angry? Oh! Your boyfriend's going to be worried that you're alone with an old man late at night, is that it? Huh? I don't have a boyfriend.
You don't? Not really popular with the boys, are you? You're at the age where I'd expect you to have one or two boyfriends.
Cheer up! I'm sure you'll find one if you just try.
You'll be fine! What is it with you? Huh? I can find a boyfriend without you worrying about me! What's with her? What was I getting so excited about?! I can't care for this at all! I would never fall for an old man like him! He went that way! GO NEXT! First in taste, Pepsi NEXT! I'm looking forward to this.
Pleased to meet you, sir! What's all this? They're the Second League Heroes who started out this season.
"Second League"? You know that Heroes are growing in popularity, right? We're taking this opportunity to make our show more exciting by splitting it into a two-league format.
I see… You and the other First Leaguers will handle major crimes, while the Second Leaguers… Their job is to handle minor crimes, is that it? Yes, sir! We're currently going after a backstage thief! Oh, yeah? I called them over today to help with crowd management.
We'll work hard so that we can uphold the peace just like you do, sir! Excuse us! They didn't even look at me.
Huh? Must be because I'm the lowest-ranked Hero… They didn't recognize you because you're not in your suit.
Oh, yeah.
Thank goodness.
What are you doing here, anyway? Go home.
I came over to see you dance, damn! That was close.
They almost found me.
I'd better scram… Okay.
Ms.
Blue Rose! You're on stage soon! Coming! I was so close! Thank you all for waiting! Please welcome the Super Unit B.
T.
B.
With their debut single, "Thank You Summer Romance"! Make it look good, Tiger! Should I put it on? Should I? I really am good at dancing! You were still off by one beat.
You're really technical, aren't you? Try to get it right during our encore.
We have bad news, sir! What happened here?! We just found it like this.
It's gone! My bag is gone! This might be the work of the backstage thief we were chasing.
What? He likes pop stars and always shows up at events like this.
But he seems to be some sort of N.
E.
X.
T.
and always gets away, sir! Bonjour, Heroes! Go after the suspect immediately! We'll be putting it on air! Let's go, Bunny! Right! Hey, what about our encore? We need to settle this first! You just had your bag stolen, after all! Jeez… you don't have to worry about my bag.
I left it in there… I ruined your towel, remember? So, here.
Huh? No… Why? I want to keep everything when it's from someone I like! I really do like him… Damn! Can't find him anywhere! There are security guards, so we would know if anyone suspicious passed by.
How did he get away, then? Hey! This is no time to be eating! The Second League kids asked me to let them handle it.
We should let them take some credit.
No! You have to catch him right away! There's nothing we can do when we don't know anything about the guy's powers.
Right? Hmm… What could it be? Hmm… What was that? Could it be? Hold it! Come back here! What do you think you're wearing, you sicko?! Shut up! He disappeared! I knew it.
He's a N.
E.
X.
T.
with the power of invisibility.
Come back here! Give me back my bag! You're so cute, but stay away! No! I'll go after him! Bunny, you… "Save my powers in case something happens", right? You've got it, partner! Hey! Come back! Huh? How did he… Oh! That smoke really makes you stand out! Damn… Out of all the Heroes who could be chasing me, it just has to be the dullest one.
Switch places with Blue Rose! He looks familiar You're the guy who filled in for Bunny before! Crap… You were a backstage thief?! No! At least, not back then… You sure?! This is all your fault! What?! On the day of that event, I found out that the backstage security was pretty light.
My only choice was to become a backstage thief.
No one told you to become one! Quit blaming others! A guy like you, who gets to see Blue Rose all the time, will never understand my feelings! You're not getting away! Huh? What the heck? How did I run past him? You're not getting away! Huh? Why am I jumping this high? That was scary.
What's happened to me? Quit wasting time! If you're going to keep messing around, I'll handle this.
Bunny! I'm amazing today! I seem to be stronger than usual.
Excuse me? I still have a minute left.
I'll catch him, no sweat.
Wow.
Watch out! I'm catching up! Stay away! Yes! Please, forgive me! Give it up! Oh! Huh? Whoops! Ouch… Powers exhausted in thirty seconds.
Why? I still have time.
What are you doing?! He's going to get away.
All right! I don't know what's going on, but I lost him! I'm really lucky! Get ready! Good work, Bison! Thank you very much, sir! That was a close one.
We were considering firing you if you continued to do poorly.
No way… But it looks like you still have what it takes to get the job done.
What? H-Huh? Why did my power run out? You're kind as always, Kotetsu.
Huh? You acted as if your power ran out, right? Huh? Rock Bison was feeling depressed, so you did that to help him regain his confidence.
No, you've got it all wrong.
Come on.
You were amazing today! It should have been easy for you to make an arrest.
He's right.
You got this back for me.
Uh… But try not to make a habit of it.
We have to think about our own points as a team, after all.
Listen… Umm… I'm going to treasure this forever! What is it with her? Man, it's been a while since I was able to kick ass like that! I was pretty impressive today, myself.
I've never had that much power before.
Could my powers be evolving?! Hi! I'm Barnaby, the member of "Tiger & Bunny" who always drinks milk before he goes to bed! What? Sky High is in love?! I sense that something big is going to happen! Next time, on Tiger & Bunny: See you!
