Unboxing [UK]: Tiger & Bunny: The Rising - Collector's Edition (BD/DVD)

The second film to the popular Tiger & Bunny series is now available for the UK!

Here's an overview of what the Collector's Edition set has to offer.


Tiger & Bunny: The Rising is the second film and continues off from the events of the TV series. While the first film 'The Beginning' recaps the first few episodes and adds a new storyline, 'The Rising' features an entirely new storyline and end to the series. The same studio and cast have returned for this film.

Similar to the first film, the second film has been handled by Anime Limited (in the US Viz Media own the TV series and the films) while KAZE UK brought out the series in four parts.

This release from Anime Limited contains the feature film on both Blu-ray and DVD plus some artcards packaged in a chipboard artbox and digipack case. The discs are region locked to B and 2 and audio options are locked (but you can change them on the pop-up menu). Most of the extra features from the US release are included with this set.
