We’re in for a week of fried rice and thorough trolling. (Not that the trolling part came as a surprise.)
24. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
-虎穴に入らずんば虎子を得ず-
We pick up where last week left us off, Wild Tiger and Barnaby facing H-01, the rest of the heroes locked up in Rotwang’s deathtrap, and Kaede taken hostage.

So, Aki and I were talking about making fried rice next week (I think she’s never eaten fried rice before, the horror!) and I said I would put pictures of Kotetsu and Barnaby on my screens and set the table and offer them my fried rice. And I’d take a picture of it and post it because I’m a derp like that.
And then we thought that why not get more people to join?
To join the Sternbild Friend Rice Event for the final episode, go and be a true Hero in the kitchen and cook your own fried rice (you can practise first if needed), bake Samantha’s cake, make some tea the way Yuri likes it, get some Pepsi (Nex if you can, whatever they sell where you live if you can’t – I’m stuck with Pepsi Max), or cook up whatever other creative Tiger & Bunny related food you can think of. And then just take a photo of your meal with your favourite T&B character(s)! (In this style.)
You can send us pictures any time during the next week, but because I know some people won’t cook until for the final episode you have until Monday September 19th 12:00 CET (noon) to email us the photos to ThisIsSternbild[at]gmail.com. You can also take part via Twitter, event hashtag is #friendrice and you can tweet your pictures to @ThisIsSternbild. Feel free to include a short comment or description if you want.
We hope we’ll get a lot of pictures! We can’t friend rice the staff & cast of Tiger & Bunny in person, so this is our way of telling all of them how much we love the show. We’re collecting all the pictures into a post here at This is Sternbild and we’ll pass the link to it to executive producer Ozaki.
Next week, on This is Sternbild: The Friend Rice Event. See ya!
Don’t have a picture to use? Don’t worry, we have some here! If a character is missing, leave a comment below and we will try to add him/her!

Hi guys, it’s interview time again! Today we have for you an interview from the 1st Hero TV Fan book, with Kusunoki Taiten, Inoue Gou & Tsuda Kenjirou (Rock Bison, Sky High & Fire Emblem). Massive amounts of moe ahead!
Disclaimer: not a professional translator, doing this for fun, etc. Standard fantranslation rules apply.
The manga serialization in Newtype Ace with Mizuki Sakakibara as the artist is starting now, and Yaraon already has some sample photos.
I actually haven’t read anything else drawn by Sakakibara so I have no idea how this compares to her usual work. The comic itself looks good judging from the sample photos, but I don’t like the coloring style in the cover and the poster that I included in the previous entry.
This first chapter seems to follow the first anime episode with some alterations. The 2nd sample picture shows a scene that wasn’t in the anime. There’s furigana, like in the first comic anthology, so those not so well-versed in Japanese will have an easier time reading this.
(This manga will go on my “to buy when out as tankobon” list. Like my book shopping list isn’t long enough as it is.)
Update: I was wondering why the magazine cover says 100 pages of Tiger & Bunny yet I was told Sakakibara’s manga chapter is 54 pages. A photo of the list of contents shows three other Tiger & Bunny stories, all by the artists featured in the first anthology from Asuka Comics. I can’t make out the page numbers but the other three stories are definitely enough to bump the page count to 100.
Samples:
Cover of Otomedia with T&B feature.
I don’t usually post stuff I can’t confirm first hand, but since these are from October’s magazines I figured it’ll be all right.
Tiger & Bunny’s finale is featured in several magazines; Newtype has a 32 page booklet, Otomedia has a poster and a 16 page feature, Animage has also a poster and a feature with staff interviews, Animedia has an article, and PASH! Deeep!!! has a 9 page feature.
Click the cut for the stuff I’ve managed to find so far (mostly from Yaraon and /a/). I’ll keep updating with more stuff as it turns up.
