This article contains everything known about Tiger And Bunny Season 2 (Tiger & Bunny 2) and all related news. As such, this article will be updated over time with news, rumors and analysis. In the meantime, let’s get into what is known for sure.

Double decker bus! Doug & Kirill anime was a Tiger & Bunny anime project

In March 2018, anime studio Sunrise announced that the Double Decker! Doug & Kirill’s anime series was just “one of Tiger & Bunny’s new animated series projects. That was the first solid hint that Tiger And Bunny season 2 was coming.”

Here’s the official summary:

“The once-peaceful city-state of Lisvalletta is plagued by a dangerous new drug called Anthem. The side effects of the drug allow the user to enter a state of Overdrive, where they mutate into super-powered beasts with inhuman abilities. With the police powerless to stop this new threat, the responsibility falls to the Special Crime Investigation Unit SEVEN-O. To neutralize the dangers of this work, the researchers work according to the patented ‘Double Decker’ system, which requires them to work together in ‘buddy cop’ pairs.”

The double decker! anime’s story had no direct connection to the Tiger & Bunny universe. Some anime fans hoped that Doug and Kirill’s story would somehow be directly related to Kotetsu and Barnaby, but it seems the only story connection between the veteran and novice detective duo and the Tiger & Bunny characters is their friendly rivalry dynamics.

The main connection was that studio Sunrise director Joji Furuta, series producer Ryo Ando, ​​screenwriter Tomohiro Suzuki and composer Norihiro Itagaki were all involved in the previous Tiger & Bunny anime projects.
