Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo Is Coming To Blu-ray Next Year

The Best Kind Of Hairy Situation

As far as ridiculous anime comedy goes, you can’t go wrong with a protagonist who takes down his enemies with the power of his nose-hairs. Yep, its one of those series. The kind with humor that comes packed with an extra layer of “what the hell did I just watch?”

Good news for anyone who happened to be a fan of the literal hair-raising adventures of Bobobo, Beauty and the rest; they are making a grand return via Blu-ray early next year!

According to an article on Crunchyroll

Frontier Works will release a Blu-ray box of the TV anime adaptation of Yoshio Sawai’s comedy adventure manga Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo at 33,480 yen (about 294 US dollars) in Japan on April 25, 2018. The manga was originally serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump for two arcs, Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo and Shinsetsu Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, from 2001 to 2007, and compiled in 28 tankobon volumes.

The TV anime adaptation produced by Toei Animation was aired for 76 episodes from November 2003 to October 2005. Due to its “sensitive” contents, it was selected as one of “the TV shows that parents don’t want their kids to watch” twice in 2004 (10th) and 2005 (9th), according to the national surveys conducted by the Japan PTA National Association.

The three-disc “Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo Kanzen Ougi (Perfect Secret Techniques)” Blu-ray box will be released to commemorate the TV anime’s 15th anniversary. All 76 episodes will be digitally remastered to high-rate SD (480i). The anime character designer Yoichi Ohnishi (Kanon character designer/chief animation director) newly draws its bookcase cover.

Hopefully that means it won’t be long before Bobobo brings his unique charm over to the rest of the world. Even if his powers are beyond unhygienic…
