It'd be funny to see some of the slower episodes deal with the comedy of this dilemma within the show's reality. Maybe a hero runs out of sponsors and has to go shop around for a new sponsor with some of these places. Could make for a decent gag. Not sure they'd all work as a full sponsor.

I can honestly say that would be funny but awkward at the same time

Could Tenga be emblazoned across one of the series' heroes?


I hope not. Such a thing would be out of place for such a family-friendly show.

Yeah, Sunrise even moved it over to their BNP Studio which is supposed to be their children and family friendly studio so I seriously doubt we're going to see an adult toys company on any of the heroes.

It's the same BNP that is in control for Gintama series, that now aired in night timeslot, full of mature stuff and +18 jokes. So yeah, it's not so impossible as you think.

Laughing That's true. To be honest, I thought them moving those two series over was kind of strange in the first place. They just didn't fit with the other shows that were transferred. That being said, Tiger & Bunny was never anywhere close to being as raunchy as Gintama.

The T&B anime can be NSFW with Blue Rose's outfit (though she might family-friendly by Japanese standards, but not as much by American standards).

Yeah, there were some bits of that (like worrying about the possibility of it) in there but that could be pretty fun for an episode. Laughing

Nay, Blue Rose outfit is family-friendly in the same way as typical modern American pop singer concert outfit, so it's fine. Even Boku no Hero Academia had more sexualized heroine outfits, and it's the prime time anime show.

The trolling part is when that episode will be released!
