The series will have a new director, however, with Atsuko Kase (Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory, Young Black Jack) taking over with story director and script writer Masafumi Nishida from the first season. It’s been quite a while since the first season aired, so if you wanted to catch up with the anime you can now find it streaming with Netflix. It’s officially described as such, “The city of Stern Bild is protected by corporate superheroes known as NEXT, who fight crime while promoting their sponsors on the popular show ‘HERO TV.’ Veteran hero Wild Tiger relies on his years of experience and instincts to fight crime, but his tendency to destroy public property for the sake of protecting the lives of the innocent has earned him the nickname “Crusher for Justice.” Now, under orders from his new employer, Wild Tiger finds himself forced to team up with Barnaby Brooks Jr., a rookie with an attitude. Two polar opposites work to fight evil in this thrilling buddy-hero action series!”
