I don't get it...

>>279683250 (OP)
To be fair, you have to have a high IQ to understand Bôbobo.

What is it that you don't get?

>>279683250 (OP)
when does it get good?

>>279683703
chapter 1

>>279683703
during OVER's arc

>>279683703
When Tennosuke officially joins the team around Volume 7.

>>279683250 (OP)
YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO READ THE TLNs ON THE SIDE OF THE PAGES!!!

>>279683892
Someone should really translate the manga again with better scans, Shonen Jump + has it and the sequel manga too

>>279683250 (OP)
HAHAHAHA BLOND NIGGA

>>279683250 (OP)
is the anime worth watching?

>>279683504

>>279684672
No. Unless you really, really want to hear Takehito Koyasu making silly noises. That's the only good thing about the anime, everything else is mediocre at best. And Toei, being the smart guys that they are, decided to stop the adaptation right before the best arc in the manga was about to start.

GO GO TRICKY STYLE

>Unless you really, really want to hear Takehito Koyasu making silly noises.
that's a good enough reason, he doesn't do it anymore

>>279684672
it has a very special humor, you either love it or hate it

Epilogue

>>279685004
I truly believe that the author was high when he drew this chapter. No other chapter is as bizarre as this one.

>>279685068
>I was at an age where I wanted to go wild. I really wanted to go all out with Hajike. This chapter got mixed reactions (90% negative), but personally I was like, “Wow, I can’t believe I drew something this crazy...” and I’m pretty fond of it.
It's hard to be both absurd and funny

I've noticed that zoomoids don't understand screwball comedy

>>279685312
keep nooticing my friend

>>279683250 (OP)
Japanese humor is different, very hit or miss. also, there's a lot of cultural references that non-Japanese simply won't understand no matter how good the translation is.

I'm more of a baka survivor

>>279685312
Bobobo was always fairly niche in western anime fandom.

>>279688722
Deep down we're all huge bakas trying to survive.

I love this series, it's the anime equivalent of WarioWare.

It’s kind of amazing how Toei has botched so many adaptations including the two biggest manga series ever. They’re fucking lucky dragon ball and one piece are well liked

>>279684672
there is a very noticeable drop in quality towards the end of the anime, and it only partially covers the first manga anyways

>>279688414
Oh hey that must've been done by Yusei Matsui when he was Sawai's assistant
Was it from a Bobobo volume?

>>279689605
In Smooth Moves, there's a Jimmy T. lookalike that has the same color palette of Bobobo

>>279683870
>When Tennosuke officially joins the team
best decision Sawaii ever took

>>279690006
Yeah, it's an illustration by Matsui. Included in Volume 3.

Is there a single fictional character that can defeat Bobobo in his Holy Nosehair Domain?

>>279691664
Arale, probably. A gag character can only be defeated by another gag character.

>>279683250 (OP)
>filtered by kino
KEEP READING, THEN READ SHINSETSU, then the spin offs. One of the greatest manga of all time

>>279684747
based, anime-onlies need to do themselves a favor and read the manga. Only then will they become a hajike master

is nice prison the bobobo successor we didn't know we needed?

>>279683292
pretty much

>>279692516
there's also this fantasy manga with a similar humor

>>279684672
I like the manga but only because I grew up watching it on TV

>>279693013
anime*
whoops

>>279692870
Thanks, I'm looking into this NOW!

>>279684747
>And Toei, being the smart guys that they are, decided to stop the adaptation right before the best arc in the manga was about to start.
To be fair, that was because Japanese soccer moms threw a tantrum about the show.

>>279684672
It's censored a lot, in the manga every single attack makes the characters cough blood

>>279694878
who here wasn't filtered by Shinsetsu bobobo?

>>279692474
The translation of the manga is absolute garbage, sadly.

>>279691664
Unironically no. He's too gag to out gag.

>>279692280
Arale lost to Beerus though in terms of non-gags, and she has been beaten in her own series.

>>279695585
>filtered by the kino scans ESPECIALLY OF THE EARLY CHAPTERS
the only downside to the tl's are stranger-ataru's comments at the end which were usually longer than the chapter themselves.

>>279695721
Bobobo gets killed by his brother in the manga and his team revived him

>>279695954
The early chapters are okay, I think, but they devolve into blind idiot guesswork in the later parts of the first manga. For example, that panel somehow had the translator mistaking "kagi" (key) for "kaki" (oyster), turning a scene about them needing to find a key made out of tofu to proceed to the third floor into incoherent word salad. If you can't even read kana, you really shouldn't be translating stuff.

>>279695125
At least the two last volumes improved it a bit, still inferior to the original though

>>279696399
>inferior to the original
it is, but when it's good it's really good imo. Even though Hatenko slapping Beauty will always live rent free in my head. We got alot of other great stuff from shinsetsu
>really well drawn teeth/improved art in general
>pickle redemption
>fan made character being OP
>kino when original cast comes back, like pic related

>>279685068
iirc he said he had a strong fever while drawing that chapter and left it like that after recovering

>>279691664
Xavier: Renegade Angel

>>279698821
this or saitama

Fun fact: there's a spin-off manga about Don Patch traveling to an alternate world where Beauty and Hekkun are normal kids, it's basically Zatch Bell and has three volumes

>>279684672
If you can watch it in Iberian Spanish then yes.

>>279699171
I still have a hard time believing that Sawai's style went from what we saw in Bôbobo to this.

>>279699345
Mi hermano en Cristo.

>>279699171
and there's ANOTHER spin-off manga with the same premise but it's a Yotsuba! parody instead, this has only 13 chapters

>>279699345
Mi negro

>>279683250 (OP)
If Sensei Nube came back in Shonen Jump Plus, why can't Bobobo too?
