Bo-bobo, master of Fist of the Nose Hair, uses the prehensile hairs of his shnoz to most lethal ends. Follow the nonsensical adventures of Bo-bobo and his sentient sidekick snacks as they lead their "hair"-larious rebellion against the Empire. Yoshio Sawai pushes the bounds of satire and the medium of manga itself with Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo. Irreverent, silly and unpredictable--Bo-bobo is pure comic genius. In the year 300X, the cruel Emperor Tsuru Tsururina has mandated the hunting of all hair in the Maruhage Empire. But a single man rises to the occasion and takes a stand against this violation of human hair rights. Bo-bobo, master of Fist of the Nose Hair, uses the prehensile hairs of his shnoz to most lethal ends. Follow the nonsensical adventures of Bo-bobo and his sentient sidekick snacks as they lead their "hair"-larious rebellion against the Empire. Bobobo-bo-bo-bobo's pal Gasser has been kidnapped by the evil Lord Giga. Bo-bobo and his pals will have to tear through some seriously hardcore bad guys to free their homey--hopefully they can stay focused enough to remember to rescue him! Yoshio Sawai pushes the bounds of satire and the manga medium itself with Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo. Irreverent, silly and unpredictable, it's pure comic genius.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Les cyber chevaliers de Giga ont des techniques peu communes... Heureusement, Bo-bobo et ses compagnons ne se laissent pas impressionner et ce n'est pas un combat où ils sont suspendus par des élastiques qui va les effrayer! De plus, ils sont maintenant aidés par la puissante Torpille Girl qui n'a d'yeux que pour Gelaton. Aah... l'amour ! En tout cas, cette fois-ci, ils n'ont pas affaire à un rigolo car Giga n'a pas hésité à transformer Peter en objet pour sa collection malsaine ! Plus question de plaisanter (enfin, façon de parler), il est temps de passer aux choses sérieuses ! Seulement voilà, quelle est la parade face à un adversaire avec une tête d'oignon ? Une fusion entre Bo-bobo, Don Patchi et Dengakuman...? Dans ce nouveau volume... heureusement que Don Patchi est super fort à Dance Dance Revolution et que Gelaton est un DJ renommé, sinon on serait tous déjà chauves ou transformés en objets bizarres !

I'm a big fan of the Bo-bobo anime and wish that the anime would bring the Shadow Chrome Dome arc, the Hair Kingdom arc and the real ending based on chapters 179-230 and True Theory chapter 73 in Anime form, but don't remake it and Czar Baldy-Bald the 3rd shouldn't appear in the anime version of the Hair Kingdom arc. I do miss Bo-bobo anime. Viz Media should've release Bo-bobo chapters 179-230 and True Theory chapters 1-73 in English too.
