Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo

The future is now, and now's all about the hair. BoBoBo is a master of the Fist of the Nose Hair, known for his big blonde afro and his wiggin skills. His companions-- Beauty, an aptly named girl, and Don Patch, who seems to be a giant star-candy-- are on a quest to take down the evil empire led by some bald guy... To be honest, I forget what the guy's name is, I'm just here for the wiggin'! Wiggin' is how they describe acting out wacky scenarios. It's like they're playing a child's pretend game. The stories are always changing as BoBoBo and Don Patch parody instantly recognizable clichés of anime. The mood never gets too heavy; it's all about having a good laugh. The writer was even kind enough to toss in a couple of glompable (but undeniably weird) bishies for good measure. This show's got everything you could want, except maybe logic.

This show is complete idiocy. It's madness. It's ridiculously ludicrous. You gotta see it!

I've only watched the english dub and haven't read the manga, so this review is solely focused on the aspects of the american adaptation of the show and not how it relates to other source material. This show is an abstracted comedy parody of mainly: 1. Other anime series produced anythime up to 3 decades before this show. 2. Dealing with modern everyday for kids and young adults life. 3. Pop culture of the 2000s and prior 2 decades.

Bobobo absolutely never takes its self seriously. It goes for lots of cheap fast jokes, slapstick comedy, a type of schizophrenic "thats so random humor" that after viewing more than 10 episodes, will show some relatively constant theming. The characters inhabit a fantastical adventure world where everything seems possible and sentient being's imaginations can bend reality to their will. Since this fantastical world is established from the start of the show, a large part of the comedy comes from very mundane real world experiences, things and places showing up during fantastical events. How well the writing intertwines the normal, the ridiculous, and references to other media outputs the quality of the humor. If your thinking of giving this show a try I suggest watching up to the 21st episode; if you enjoyed it up to this point you'll like the rest, if you didn't, the flow or the type of episode progression is not going to change much for the next 55 episodes.

Bobobo is blonde-afro-haired hero, defending the world against the hair-hunters who serve to Margarita Empire using his famous nose-hair attack. His friends Don Patch (I don't know what sort of life-form he is) and the beauty girl called Beauty help him in his adventure. Along the show goes on, many other characters appears, such as the mysterious Softon, the man with a strange shaped head that seems like...

I'm not very keen on the classic japan series, but I've seen some of them (Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, and so...) and this show spoofs them in a very good way.

With a lot of senseless and absurd humor, but very funny, this series become a great one among my cartoon favourites. And the Spanish dubbed version (which i've seen) it's even greater!!

For everybody who has seen it: PruKoGI, PruKoGi, PruKoGi...!! (as Don Patch would do)

The screwiest screwball comedy I've ever seen. So screwy, in fact that the ball has become a form of a makeshift spherical nut that resonates with a random passerby as a metaphor for the state of the Earth, and dedicates the rest of his life to bettering himself.

Though the wannabe Bobobo often thinks himself the star of the show, the true star would have to be its main character, Don Patch steals the show (well, he would if he wasn't the main character) every line out of him is comedy gold, and the way Bobobo plays off him in not only the wiggin skits, but in general is what some comedic duos really need to take notes from. Not to mention the dub is my favorite vocal performance from Kirk Thornton. Don Patch, and the shows message about hair is cinema.

Funniest show I've ever seen

Bo/10.

Do you like anime but your favourite parts are all the filler episodes and the plots that make absolutely no sense? Do I have a show for you. A hard series to find in full, I have fond memories of staying up super late at friends to watch this on Toonami. I didn't understand the show then, and I don't understand the show, but man is it a trip. The closest modern comparison I can think of is Jojo's Bizzare Adventure (tho I have yet to see, is on my list) and honestly I would bet this show is even more bizzare than that. Following the bonafide protector Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo who uses his magic power to control and talk to hair to fight an evil organization of baldies, slowly seeking to turn the world bald one head at a time. Using his nose hairs as weapons, the many people/creatures/gadgets he has hidden in his afro, and joined by his friends Beauty (a young generic pink haired girl following them) and Don Patch (a mean-talking orange round sun thing?), the group sets out to save the world. This show is insane and I love every second of it; I still don't know why it exists, but I'm so glad that it does.
