Ep 1The Bo-nafide Soulful Bo-tector of Hair
Bobobo-bo Bo-boboBobobo-bo Bo-bobo
Based on the manga by Yoshio Sawai, Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo is one of the weirdest, yet funny animes using puns, cross-dressing, and lots of visual gags. Taking place in the year 300X, an evil organization knows as the Bald Empire (Margarita Empire) is planning to take over the world by stealing everyones hair. The Bald Empire, led by Emperor Baldy Bald, will have to go through Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, who is determined to put a stop to them once and for all, if they plan to succeed. But it won't be easy, because Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo was trained to "hear the voices of the hair," enabling him to command his own body hair to perform various martial arts stunts to defend himself. Along the way, he will eventually need the help of all the different, yet weird friends he encounters in order to defeat the evil Bald Empire.
Episode Summary
In the year 300X, the diabolical Czar Baldy-Bald IV proclaims a hair hunt throughout his Chrome Dome Empire, forcing everyone under his rule to be as bald as him. But in the midst of the chaos emerges a rebel with a golden afro and an insane way of doing things. That man is Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo! This episode introduces Bo-bobo, along with the pink-haired Beauty (who joins along on his hair-raising adventures) and the vinegary Pickles (who is never seen again after this episode), along with several mysterious characters we'll probably meet again later.
