At some point I purchased Tiger & Bunny Volume 3 before I purchased Volume 2, so it took me some time to even get my hands on this issue because it also, at some point, went out of print. It wasn't until I found a copy of it at BookOff that I was finally able to continue reading through the manga.

Yet again, this is a competent adaption of the anime. The artwork by Mizuki Sakakibara is amazing to look at, although I do find her action sequences to be a bit noisy, making it hard to really figure out what is happening in these moments.

This volume further expands on Kotetsu and Barnaby's lives and their contentious relationship with each other. It also happens to be the volume where Barnaby starts to actually pay attention to Kotetsu as a person and not an annoyance.

Overall, I was bored but still marching forward because I am a big Tiger & Bunny fan, so I hoped that there would be something more for me to look forward to in the next volume.

This one is less fun than the first volume, being more of an exploration of the characters, which is enjoyable nonetheless. It was interesting to see what being a hero meant to different characters and their motivations to become a hero. The ending of this one hints at some darker themes developing in the plot, which has me intrigued. However, I won't be reading the rest of these as I've gotten my hands on the anime now and want to enjoy the series in motion.

Has everything you'd expect from Tiger & Bunny but at the same time doesn't feel generic. Worth checking out.

This manga continues to retell the anime in a way that works well. The pacing is a bit better in this volume than it was in the first. These chapters did not feel as rushed. The art too is still amazing and really pops off the page.
