This video took a surprising amount of work and contains over 200 scans so I hope you all enjoyed it. Go ahead and leave some recommendations below of some Shonen characters that you think I should pit Bobobo against in my next video. Or maybe you think there are Shonen characters that he can't beat that you think I've forgotten. Let me know.
If you want views do Bobo bo vs goku. If you want to give a love letter to the shounen community do bobobo vs yhwach. I’m still here, gonna keep asking for the Dominus video, and now I’m gonna ask for a wally west video, despite how routine it might feel for you, we want it.
The best part about vs debates with Bobobo is that you'll end up telling them unbelievable shit like "Bobobo can wear tissue boxes on his feet to move faster" and "Bobobo has absorbed the infinite power of all 5,634 supermarkets in Japan."
The very fact that he even has a vsbattles page is funny. Since Bobobo is a gag character that shits on conventional power scalers “logic.” It shows just how absorbed in their own wankfests they are.
@@helios2664I do like the absurdity of trying to crunch the numbers to figure the finite strength needed to lift a sun and 5,634 Japanese supermarkets. Even if just as a thought excercise than a means to an end for an argument.
@@Jim-Bagel No, it literally can't. Toon Force does whatever it wants as long as its funny, that's the point. It exists to remind people that this is fiction and shouldn't be taken so seriously.
@@felixdaniels37 But that's just your opinion, man. Some people see Wile E Coyote set a spring beneath some road to kill a birb and laugh when it fails, others want to know how strong that spring was. No one's wrong, everyone's dumb.
"he transforms into a crow, picks up his opponent, flies with them so fast that they actually go back in time, to the invention of the wheel... Where they are both punched in the face by its inventor" Truly the greatest attack of all time.
@@thepotatoofheaven Maybe Torpedo Girl accidentally tore out the letter 'r' in that speech bubble from that page of the manga as Bobobo was transforming, causing him to accidentally transform into a flying cow instead.
"Bobobo should be able to reach speeds around 63 thousand times the speed of light provided that he is wearing tissue boxes on his feet." Another great and ridiculous quote.
Sorry, did you not hear the phrase "combine these together, and Bobobo, even earlier in the sheries should be able to reach speeds of around 63 thousand times the speed of light, provided that he is wearing tissue boxes on his feet".
He would return his hair to him, causing Saitama to loose all his powers as Bo-bobo re-writes his backstory to explain that it was the loss of his hair that gave him extreme power, and that it happening during his big workout regimen was just a coincidence and he did all that work for nothing.
So basically -Bobobo is beyond 6D -Can't be insta-killed -Can bring characters from other series to fight his battles such as frieza, Yugi, Kefka, Lambda, Giorno, and many others -Can not be sealed away -Doesn't have plot armor but plot equipment -Can rewrite reality cuz fuck you -Can manipulate the concept of time cuz fuck you -Has the power to throw literal planets that are million kilometers away from him at you just because -Can resurrect himself after he's killed -Can literally make nonsense into reality because fuck you -Has the power to override someone's ability -Can warp a literal dimension cuz well fuck you -Can make 3+3=8 -Can Turn himself into whatever the fuck he wants -Can overwrite the concept of destiny and fate itself -Can time travel -Has the power to fuse that makes him over 100 Million times stronger than his base form -Soul manipulation doesn't work on him -Can rewrite someone's memory even if its gone -Can use attacks that are 100% guaranteed to hit no matter what -Can make others as strong as he is just by being in their general presence There's more but..... Basically fuck you if you fight bobobo
I feel like the way bo bo bo was written was by having half the writers room figuring out ways to kill him while the other half figured out a way to have him beat it all.
So what you're essentially saying is that Bobobo is an eldritch god beyond all comprehension and he'd be right at home in Lovecraft's stories and may just outright exceed even that.
He's basically written as an omnipotent reality warper. The only way to 'win' would be to erase him and anything related to him from reality in such a way that there is no possible manner sensible, nonsensical, or otherwise that he'd be able to return to existence and even that wouldn't be 100% guaranteed to keep him down.
@@kylepessell1350 but is that truly the case. The concept of bobobo would still exist for the one erasing him. Thusly he'd still exist as as his powers exist as long as the idea of bobobo exists.
This is the first time I see someone on UA-cam doing a serious analysis about Bobobo's powers. Great video, Bobobo deserves way more appreciation and it's a shame that almost no one has read the original manga. Most people watched the anime, and that's it. Such a shame, the anime stops right before the best shônen arc in history.
Imagine, in real life, living your entire life, you go to school, get a job, have a family, and inevitable meet your demise at an old age. Than instead of going to heaven or hell you start to open your eyes in the after life and you just woke up in the bobobo bo-bo Bobo universe where you have just lost to bobobo after he just completely rewrote your reality.
My eyes just sorta progressively glazed over as you delved further into Bobobo's feats and lore. Like, I couldn't focus on even one page of the manga because it's all just so absurd. He gives me actual psychic damage just merely witnessing him . . . damn, that's literally his Hajike power at work.
One of the hypest thing in this manga is that many strong enemies would gradually become allies, and even the cool ones like halekulani (money dude), and over (scissor dude) are not exempt from being forced by bobobo to join on his ridiculous hajike-style combination attacks.
I love that Bobobo and crew are incomprehensibly stronger than literally any other creation ever made, and you could reach that conclusion in the first few minutes of this video.
@@vyor8837 bugs bunny's best feat is becoming the person writing and drawing the cartoon. Using his unfinished manga ability, BoBoBo can run so fast the artists and writers can't keep up with him. So even if bugs bunny becomes the writer, BoBoBo can theoretically speed blitz him
Bobobo's strongest ability is summon Don Patch out of thin air just to throw him at whoever he feels like doing so Afterwards Don Patch always ends up exploding for some reason
Everyone stares in despair as the meteor approaches. Bobobo: EVERYONE RAISE YOUR PLATES IN THE AIR! Madara: Fools, they’ve completely lost their minds if cheap porcelain will- Meteor explodes and falls into chunks perfectly onto people’s plates. Madara: THE METEOR BECAME MEATY MEATBALLS!!??
I regularly wonder how shonen writers come up with the stuff they do, but especially in this case, we can only wonder what truly goes through the head of the man who created this.
Once he summoned yugi from his Afro I knew he was something else…I wish they were able to animate this and dub it in English before they cancelled the show
Japanese copyright laws are very different, so they probably wouldn't have been able to use Yugi or the DBZ characters in the anime, and even if they did, it wouldn't be able to air outside of Japan
I'm glad Bobobo is getting more attention in recent years considering it was aired at 10pm on Cartoon Network and manga and DVD distribution was handled terribly.
Kingdom hearts character deleting your concept- doesn't work Toriko having abilities that through plot will hit you - doesn't work Changing your past- doesn't work... *FUCKING HELL*
@@torshavnnewell I'm a be real I took a break near the end of the series then pick it back up months after 2 years ago and all I have to say shit got weird after last 2 arcs
He's an immortal, reality-warping, abstract entity who can teleport, transmutate, time-travel, move faster than light, create and destroy suns at will, has access to his own infinite plane of reality, his dreams become reality, and witnessing his power drives people insane. How is Bobo-bo not some sort of horrifying Eldrich/Cosmic entity?
Bobobo would defeat Yhwach by convincing the universe that knowledge is just another word for onions, and so Yhwach's Almighty ability just gives him onions.
That wouldn't work on thr Almighty, Ichibei tried redefining Yhwach to ant and even removing his name (This is why you can't read Zangetsu's name early on in the series).And Yhwach still defeated Ichibei
@@jacobwansleeben3364 Bobobo: …Give me a minute. Bobobo (in drag): Hello big, strong and hansom. *wink* Beauty: I don’t think that’s going to work. Hulk: Hello pretty lady. 😍 Beauty: I KNOW BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER, BUT HE MUST OF BEEN DRINKING SOMETHING HEAVY TO FALL FOR THAT!!!
The entire sun attack at the start of the video immediately sold me on the premise of the video and on the series. Seeing as I don't have to watch the rest of the video, I'm just gonna watch Bobobo now.
For some reason, now I can only think about UI Goku attacking Bobobo just to be greeted with a Mirror Force played by Yugi Muto, who just sprouted from Bobobo's head after it cracked open like a fucking Kinder Egg
Of course he's the strongest. He's basically *"Anything you can do, I can do better"* the character. It's like he was written by a six year old. Kinda like Axe Cop.
the moral of the story is that ultimately, no matter how absurd a character gets, their power pales in comparison to complete nonsense joke shit. proving that jerking off over how powerful your favorite anime/comic book character is, is pointless, as no matter how impressive they are, they'll never be able to compete with joke characters. a serious character can only get so strong before their power becomes silly, so their potential is stifled, whereas a joke character's power is truly limitless
when you are a character in a comedy show your power level is pretty much infinite comedy does not require things to make sense, infact comedy is probably the least restrictive form of media so really, any thing goes.
Bobobo is an actual eldritch entity. His true nature and attacks are incomprehensible, his dreams directly influence reality, and even witnessing some of his moves can render you insane. He's the Lovecraftian God of nose hair no one talks about.
Comedy really has one real rule and that's to be funny. I know that's pretty hard, but outside of that you have a lot of leeway for everything else. Bobobo is one of the series that takes that concept and runs with it faster then you can say BO.
"Here it is! My final attack! An entire sun!" Dude when I tell you that threw me the fuck off, I am not kidding. I nearly died choking from laughing at that because of how random and straight forward that would be as an action, before I even see anything happen after someone saying that. Do you know how hot a sun is like what the fuck im crying
its inverse kenshio logic, instead of my power comes from my opponents, bobobo's power is making a nonsense version of the enemies power into somethings so unrecognizable that its oddity in itself helps him win
Bobobo is literally just the shonen version of the mask he can do anything he wants and just say no to damage as well as do 4th wall breaks that would make Deadpool a little jealous which is why I'm a bit sad the manga and show didn't get as big as some other shows
Currently rewatching this... Didn't even remember it existed until I saw it on UA-cam. Thought it was just a fever dream but it's a new childhood memory unlocked 😂
They can’t bullshit their way into making him lose 😂 he’d probably switch them in as the guy having the death battle with whomever he was supposed to fight like say booty warrior yujiro hanma or popeye
@@dayvonlouis5187 I got one guy who's insanity can match Bobobo. Axe Cop. He would also give Wiz and Boomstick a melt down trying to analyze his powers and skills.
It’s telling that in the Granblue Crossover he’s been in both this year and last years April Fools, he makes even gag characters inspired by Frieza exhausted when dealing with him. Or how he can just summon God to attack his enemies like he did Osiris/Slifer The Sky Dragon to attack his enemies with.
this is the greatest analysis and summary of Bobobo I've ever seen posted on the internet, so thank you Sir Parrot. You're doing God's (bobobo's) work here.
Bro Bobobo literally made me physically sick when I was younger trying to watch this. I kept trying to take it seriously and compared to other Shows and reality and it just completely broke my paradigm multiple times a minute so for the most part I had no idea what the f*** was happening and I just have to stop watching. Now that I know that instead of being complete f****** nonsense that it's actually one of the most big brain mangas ever written and also complete f****** nonsense. I'll never read this or watch this voluntarily ever again but now I actually understand what's going on and can respect it
AMAZING VIDEO, listened to this during a long 3 hour cardio workout and just visualizing some of the hajike depicted in this video filled me with both the joy and vigor to push through and finish! Thanks, and great analysis!
He's best described as an anime character being able to utilize toon force. The most similar anime characters I can think of are Arale from Dr Slump and -Haruko Haruhara from FLCL- Edit: I said that last part yet there’s science to what she did
@@Antasma1 Idk, the direct translation describes the user, "being able to fight in however shape or form they please," not exactly verbatim but similar, honestly it has to be something not the physics but some power that would cause the world gov fear
This entire series in terms of power is like school kids going “nuh uh, I got this power and it’s stronger than yours, and that means your thing doesn’t work”
I'm glad to learn that when I kept catching the show halfway through an episode and would have absolutely no idea what the hell was going on, that If I had caught it from the start I would have had just as much of a chance of understanding it. Despite never catching a full episode, the character of Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo never has left my mind.
Been waiting for a new banger, and this was very unexpected but even more welcomed, it was a classic anime and manga and I'm so glad you're covering it, very few have done such an in depth video.
So basically Bobobo is the personification of shitposting & is unbeatable because any attack will simply be nullified into a shitpost and any time he is shown "damaged" is just him being impressed with their shitpost.
I haven't even finished the video yet, but thank you. Bo-Bobo is still one of my favorite Shonen characters of all time after all these years, so seeing someone seriously analyze how strong he is is a great surprise for these eyes. So, again, thank you.
I vaguely remember "deals a sunglasses amount of damage" being a description of an old db item (possibly budokai) that had the sole effect of nullifying solar Flare which was an unblockable stun iirc
So, in other words... End of Series Bobobo wearing both tissue boxes and abacuses on his feet is at least (and likely way more than) 1.8 billion times faster than his mangaka can draw?
When you said he can get infinitely stronger even during battle made me want a Disgaea-like game based around the series. The parody vibe leveling system that encourage you to break it as much as possible sound like it would be perfect for it.
Thank You for making this video, it needed to be done. Bobobo-Bo Bo-bobo(correct spelling) is my favorite anime(my favorite manga being One Piece). I’ve watched all 75 episodes of the anime…twice. A tear shed for the millions who have never heard of this gem of an anime.
I watch and look into scaling and feats for many verses, ranging from low tier street level up to High Outerversal and Boundless, including some of your own, yet this is one of the most absurd, insane videos on any scaling and hax I've ever seen
imagine being kazuki takahashi and some dude come up to you and is like hey wanna collab i got this idea for yugi moto coming out of my main characters hair to destroy and infinite game board
I'm speculating a bit but I think 'Ganeme' is just 'Megane' rearanged (Me-Gane, Gane-Me) which is the word for eyeglasses or people wearing them which would make sense since 'everyone is ganeme' would mean 'everyone wears glasses'
Bobobo is basically the one character who uses Toonforce but who also actually acknowledges Toonforce as being a thing that exists instead of doing it unconciously.
I love finding different fanboys online who brag about how OP their favorite characters are, and then infodumping on them about how this absurd golden afro adorned nose hair fighter would completely obliterate them.
I’m sorry for anyone who didn’t know of bobobobo’s existence before know, he’s a character that pretty much anyone witnessed first hand immediately made a silent agreement to never talk about. In sake of protecting oneself’s and anyone else’s sanity after their brain melts, since bobobobo’s powers are one of the only ones that can attack someone mentally in the real world. To sum him up, bobobobo base abilities (outside transformations) are: 1. Immeasurable speed 2. Plot, concept, and fate manipulation 3. Resistance/immunity to practically anything 4. Casually 5th dimensional 5. multiple Life hacks 6. Overpowering resistances of other characters 7. The ability to make conterplans/counterattacks/avoid attacks long before they happen and with no knowledge of said attacks happening - aka ultra instinct and Batman’s prep time hacks combined together then put on steroids. 8. Can summon other characters from fiction to aid him and can theoretically fuse with them if he wanted to. 9. Can give his powers to others by giving them his sun glasses. ... yeah, forget bobobobo being the strongest shonen character, to my best knowledge he’s just the strongest character in fiction. Which is why it’s usually forbidden to speak of him, due to his literally absurd power.
So THAT'S why Bo-bobo is so underrated and hardly spoken of! I thought it was due to poor marketing and the niche aspect of it, but this makes more sense. I guess I just hadn't connected the dots post-brain liquification.
Most people dont know who he is, the anime got canceled, the manga finished but it was practically under the radar by then, and then they kept him out of jump force for some reason, hopefully this series can get a reboot of some kind eventually.
I watched Bobobo when it came out I think it was adult swim or cartoon network. I never read the Manga though and didn't realize how ridiculous he gets. Cool video.
4:55 I could totally see Bobobo making it so madara's backstory is that he is an elderly takoyaki salesman struggling with his erectile dysfucntion scaring away customers while his competitor who is a bipedal dog runs an extremely succesful sushi shop

-Doesn't have plot armor but plot equipment
-Can rewrite reality cuz fuck you
-Can manipulate the concept of time cuz fuck you
-Has the power to throw literal planets that are million kilometers away from him at you just because
-Can resurrect himself after he's killed
-Can literally make nonsense into reality because fuck you
-Has the power to override someone's ability
-Can warp a literal dimension cuz well fuck you
-Can make 3+3=8
-Can Turn himself into whatever the fuck he wants
-Can overwrite the concept of destiny and fate itself
-Can time travel
-Has the power to fuse that makes him over 100 Million times stronger than his base form
-Soul manipulation doesn't work on him
-Can rewrite someone's memory even if its gone
-Can use attacks that are 100% guaranteed to hit no matter what
-Can make others as strong as he is just by being in their general presence

@@THEGREATMAX yeah, so it's not like he actually summoned Yami from his hair, we all just imagined that, the Mathiverse always fools us.
They actually did get to that part in the Anime, they just replaced it with a different gag.
The guy is so built different he managed to summon another shounen jump Mc to fight for him
He did it because the author was friends with the guy from Yugioh
Bobobo has the eldridge power to gaslight realty to his will, and what a will he has
I'm glad Bobobo is getting more attention in recent years considering it was aired at 10pm on Cartoon Network and manga and DVD distribution was handled terribly.
THAT'S why I always missed it as a kid!
I always recorded it on my vcr

He's an immortal, reality-warping, abstract entity who can teleport, transmutate, time-travel, move faster than light, create and destroy suns at will, has access to his own infinite plane of reality, his dreams become reality, and witnessing his power drives people insane.
How is Bobo-bo not some sort of horrifying Eldrich/Cosmic entity?
Because Bobobo is Bobobo
Bobobo is
But also isn't
Because Bobo-bo decided he didn’t want to
Because he's a gag character; man could shitpost an eldritch monstrosity to death.
Because bobobo decided it'd be funny if he wasn't
he is a blonde who gathers people to him and even force his will on under people; perhaps he is "The King in Yellow"
Bobobo would defeat Yhwach by convincing the universe that knowledge is just another word for onions, and so Yhwach's Almighty ability just gives him onions.
That wouldn't work on thr Almighty, Ichibei tried redefining Yhwach to ant and even removing his name (This is why you can't read Zangetsu's name early on in the series).And Yhwach still defeated Ichibei
@@chavaspada
I think you need to read more.
It's not affecting Yhwach, so his survivability is irrelevant.

@@Firebird-he3sz🤣🤣🤣 I can actually see that happening.
The entire sun attack at the start of the video immediately sold me on the premise of the video and on the series. Seeing as I don't have to watch the rest of the video, I'm just gonna watch Bobobo now.
For some reason, now I can only think about UI Goku attacking Bobobo just to be greeted with a Mirror Force played by Yugi Muto, who just sprouted from Bobobo's head after it cracked open like a fucking Kinder Egg
Of course he's the strongest. He's basically *"Anything you can do, I can do better"* the character. It's like he was written by a six year old. Kinda like Axe Cop.
Mald
the moral of the story is that ultimately, no matter how absurd a character gets, their power pales in comparison to complete nonsense joke shit. proving that jerking off over how powerful your favorite anime/comic book character is, is pointless, as no matter how impressive they are, they'll never be able to compete with joke characters. a serious character can only get so strong before their power becomes silly, so their potential is stifled, whereas a joke character's power is truly limitless
when you are a character in a comedy show
your power level is pretty much infinite
comedy does not require things to make sense, infact comedy is probably the least restrictive form of media
so really, any thing goes.
This why its hard to debate with Characters that are literary Toon Force basically Cartoon Logic.
Bobobo is an actual eldritch entity.
His true nature and attacks are incomprehensible, his dreams directly influence reality, and even witnessing some of his moves can render you insane.
He's the Lovecraftian God of nose hair no one talks about.
That explains early Dragon Ball.
In a way, Akira had to make a whole alien species just to justify Goku when put in a more serious context.
Comedy really has one real rule and that's to be funny. I know that's pretty hard, but outside of that you have a lot of leeway for everything else. Bobobo is one of the series that takes that concept and runs with it faster then you can say BO.
Bugs Bunny still scales above BoBoBo though.
BoBoBo is one of the strongest characters ever though.
"Here it is! My final attack! An entire sun!"
Dude when I tell you that threw me the fuck off, I am not kidding. I nearly died choking from laughing at that because of how random and straight forward that would be as an action, before I even see anything happen after someone saying that. Do you know how hot a sun is like what the fuck im crying
Its just the fact that its not something super long or overly complicated, and is just BOBOBO THROWING THE FUCKING SUN AT SOMEONE
I love that it starts off with bobobo just grabbing a Sun to throw at someone
dbz
@@The1pokemaster1we know but Richard made it a whole next scene 😂
Chad Bo Bobo enjoyers stand up! This show was the first comedy focused shounen I've ever watched in my life, it holds a special place in my heart.
It's funny as hell.
Me too bro, me too
It was my first anime i watched and still my favorite until this day
The show that made me love anime as a whole
its inverse kenshio logic, instead of my power comes from my opponents, bobobo's power is making a nonsense version of the enemies power into somethings so unrecognizable that its oddity in itself helps him win
This whole series was insane and I still can't believe I bore witness to it.
Hehe my turn
Bobobo is literally just the shonen version of the mask he can do anything he wants and just say no to damage as well as do 4th wall breaks that would make Deadpool a little jealous which is why I'm a bit sad the manga and show didn't get as big as some other shows
Currently rewatching this... Didn't even remember it existed until I saw it on UA-cam. Thought it was just a fever dream but it's a new childhood memory unlocked 😂
I recommend reading the manga after you finish the anime since it ended on a cliffhanger
may I ask where? I have been trying to find it
@@Blue__Oni where do you read it

*Tosses Bobobo into Death battle, Wiz and broomstick have a melt down trying to analyze his power level*
They can’t bullshit their way into making him lose 😂 he’d probably switch them in as the guy having the death battle with whomever he was supposed to fight like say booty warrior yujiro hanma or popeye
@@dayvonlouis5187 I got one guy who's insanity can match Bobobo. Axe Cop. He would also give Wiz and Boomstick a melt down trying to analyze his powers and skills.
It’s telling that in the Granblue Crossover he’s been in both this year and last years April Fools, he makes even gag characters inspired by Frieza exhausted when dealing with him. Or how he can just summon God to attack his enemies like he did Osiris/Slifer The Sky Dragon to attack his enemies with.
this is the greatest analysis and summary of Bobobo I've ever seen posted on the internet, so thank you Sir Parrot. You're doing God's (bobobo's) work here.
hearing someone matter of factly state the things that happen in bobobo is a form of comedy i have never seen before
Bro Bobobo literally made me physically sick when I was younger trying to watch this. I kept trying to take it seriously and compared to other Shows and reality and it just completely broke my paradigm multiple times a minute so for the most part I had no idea what the f*** was happening and I just have to stop watching. Now that I know that instead of being complete f****** nonsense that it's actually one of the most big brain mangas ever written and also complete f****** nonsense. I'll never read this or watch this voluntarily ever again but now I actually understand what's going on and can respect it
Yeah this is pretty much Bobobo in a nutshell.
It's okay, this is the internet you can swear.
😂😂 that's the main reason i liked it, the random craziness
Bobobo is simply incomprehensible. Everything and anything are bound to his will and unreasonable thoughts, or lack of them.
Bobobo is literally what people think gear 5 luffy and Saitama are like and yet he's still way stronger.
Bobobo could probably defeat a concept if he wanted to. Like if he was hungry he could literally fight the hunger and then he’d feel full again
Considering that by the end of thw manga hes beyond scaling...
Yeah, him existing alone basically contradicts any constant or concept
AMAZING VIDEO, listened to this during a long 3 hour cardio workout and just visualizing some of the hajike depicted in this video filled me with both the joy and vigor to push through and finish! Thanks, and great analysis!
He's best described as an anime character being able to utilize toon force. The most similar anime characters I can think of are Arale from Dr Slump and -Haruko Haruhara from FLCL-
Edit: I said that last part yet there’s science to what she did
and the mask
@@pookiegaming75 Thinking strictly anime
Gear 5 Luffy seems to run on cartoon physics as well
@@GregoryMom No, he’s just Luffy with a little extra rubber hose
@@Antasma1 Idk, the direct translation describes the user, "being able to fight in however shape or form they please," not exactly verbatim but similar, honestly it has to be something not the physics but some power that would cause the world gov fear
Bobobo is basically that one kid who just says whatever they can to win in an imagination game
This entire series in terms of power is like school kids going “nuh uh, I got this power and it’s stronger than yours, and that means your thing doesn’t work”
I cant believe he unleashed the terrible power of an adult woman
truly a terrifying power
Remember watching this as a kid, not sure I saw the 2nd season but back then I never realized how nuts this show was
I'm glad to learn that when I kept catching the show halfway through an episode and would have absolutely no idea what the hell was going on, that If I had caught it from the start I would have had just as much of a chance of understanding it. Despite never catching a full episode, the character of Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo never has left my mind.
I love to hear people trying to explain anything in Bobobo
Hell yeah Bo Bobo getting the attention he deserves
Why bobobo had to fall in obscurity
Every single part of this video gives me so much validation for experiencing and defending this massive fever dream. You have freed my soul.
Been waiting for a new banger, and this was very unexpected but even more welcomed, it was a classic anime and manga and I'm so glad you're covering it, very few have done such an in depth video.
i remember hearing / reading a while ago that the scene when yugi is summoned was actually drawn by the actual manga artist of yugioh
So basically Bobobo is the personification of shitposting & is unbeatable because any attack will simply be nullified into a shitpost and any time he is shown "damaged" is just him being impressed with their shitpost.
I haven't even finished the video yet, but thank you. Bo-Bobo is still one of my favorite Shonen characters of all time after all these years, so seeing someone seriously analyze how strong he is is a great surprise for these eyes.
So, again, thank you.
I vaguely remember "deals a sunglasses amount of damage" being a description of an old db item (possibly budokai) that had the sole effect of nullifying solar Flare which was an unblockable stun iirc
I loved BoBoBo growing up, god I wish it could come back
So, in other words... End of Series Bobobo wearing both tissue boxes and abacuses on his feet is at least (and likely way more than) 1.8 billion times faster than his mangaka can draw?
Yes
When you said he can get infinitely stronger even during battle made me want a Disgaea-like game based around the series. The parody vibe leveling system that encourage you to break it as much as possible sound like it would be perfect for it.
Freaking landmine Bobobo is just Infinite Landmine Works and I love it
There’s legit no way to beat this dude, he’d just keep pulling unfathomable bullshit out of nowhere and growing stronger
Not necessarily true as characters who don't run on conventional logic are weak to other characters who don't run on conventional logic.
@@Blue_XIIIand yet his unfathomable logic is impossibly vast
We should be grateful he's a hero
Thank You for making this video, it needed to be done. Bobobo-Bo Bo-bobo(correct spelling) is my favorite anime(my favorite manga being One Piece). I’ve watched all 75 episodes of the anime…twice. A tear shed for the millions who have never heard of this gem of an anime.
Came back here after watching Metas describe how "only someone with reality warping abilities can defeat EoH Dio and WoH"
I watch and look into scaling and feats for many verses, ranging from low tier street level up to High Outerversal and Boundless, including some of your own, yet this is one of the most absurd, insane videos on any scaling and hax I've ever seen
Bobobo vs Gintama, also glad you're back at it dude keep up the good work!
imagine being kazuki takahashi and some dude come up to you and is like hey wanna collab i got this idea for yugi moto coming out of my main characters hair to destroy and infinite game board
Got blocked by a guy on TikTok who just wouldn't accept BoBoBo would beat Goku. Damn Goku fans get heated really quick.
Lol, even I’m a huge Goku fan and I would understand that Bobobo can easily clap Goku 😂😂
I'm speculating a bit but I think 'Ganeme' is just 'Megane' rearanged (Me-Gane, Gane-Me) which is the word for eyeglasses or people wearing them which would make sense since 'everyone is ganeme' would mean 'everyone wears glasses'
yeah pretty much.
Bobobo is basically the one character who uses Toonforce but who also actually acknowledges Toonforce as being a thing that exists instead of doing it unconciously.
Finally, a good powerscaling video.
Great to have you back, and with an awesome video covering an underappreciated character to boot
I did not know I needed this in my life.
Hajike is basically weponized toon force.
The anime version of Uncle Grandpa, you literally can't beat someone who can do whatever they want without them technically altering reality.
I love finding different fanboys online who brag about how OP their favorite characters are, and then infodumping on them about how this absurd golden afro adorned nose hair fighter would completely obliterate them.
Thank you for making this! This was amazing. I loved watching this show when it was airing back in the day.
I’m sorry for anyone who didn’t know of bobobobo’s existence before know, he’s a character that pretty much anyone witnessed first hand immediately made a silent agreement to never talk about. In sake of protecting oneself’s and anyone else’s sanity after their brain melts, since bobobobo’s powers are one of the only ones that can attack someone mentally in the real world.
To sum him up, bobobobo base abilities (outside transformations) are:
1. Immeasurable speed
2. Plot, concept, and fate manipulation
3. Resistance/immunity to practically anything
4. Casually 5th dimensional
5. multiple Life hacks
6. Overpowering resistances of other characters
7. The ability to make conterplans/counterattacks/avoid attacks long before they happen and with no knowledge of said attacks happening - aka ultra instinct and Batman’s prep time hacks combined together then put on steroids.
8. Can summon other characters from fiction to aid him and can theoretically fuse with them if he wanted to.
9. Can give his powers to others by giving them his sun glasses.
... yeah, forget bobobobo being the strongest shonen character, to my best knowledge he’s just the strongest character in fiction. Which is why it’s usually forbidden to speak of him, due to his literally absurd power.
You forgot about his indestructible nose hair
Some of Lovecraft's gods might be stronger. Nyarli and Nodens probably are, Azathoth and Yog-Sothoth definitely are.
So THAT'S why Bo-bobo is so underrated and hardly spoken of! I thought it was due to poor marketing and the niche aspect of it, but this makes more sense. I guess I just hadn't connected the dots post-brain liquification.
7:20 I'm sorry *_what_* He can just casually summon other Anime characters from his... head!?!?
Considering that Bo-bo-bo is more or less a reality-warper, I'm surprised on how many people sleep on him.
Most people dont know who he is, the anime got canceled, the manga finished but it was practically under the radar by then, and then they kept him out of jump force for some reason, hopefully this series can get a reboot of some kind eventually.
The god is back, I was wondering how many times i have to re-watch this mans videos before a new one came out. Glad to have you back
Appreciate seeing someone remember this fever dream of an anime that I would randomly watch on Toonami sometimes. Bless this head case of a show
I watched Bobobo when it came out I think it was adult swim or cartoon network. I never read the Manga though and didn't realize how ridiculous he gets. Cool video.
4:55 I could totally see Bobobo making it so madara's backstory is that he is an elderly takoyaki salesman struggling with his erectile dysfucntion scaring away customers while his competitor who is a bipedal dog runs an extremely succesful sushi shop
Ok.
Having fights from this show explained in such a calm, reasonable voice ... Kinda makes it even funnier 😂 dear god 🙏
