Japanese PTA Cancelled Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo after ONLY 76 EPISODES?!?!?!?!?


That's right fans. The anime was never finished because the Japanese PTA deemed it as 'too violent' so it was cancelled. If anyone knows a place on the web where you can sign a petition to bring it back PLEASE TELL ME!!!!!!!

Yes, I've heard about that too, and it just seemed like a large injustice to us, especially since I had no idea it had any sort of violence in it that it would raise contreversey to this degree.

reply

This is the first time I've heard this. Are you sure its not ust a false rumor? Because how on earth does this show have too much violence? This is nothing compared to most other animes on the violence scale.........

reply

I heard about that too, though I don't know if they put any of the unaired episodes on DVD or not in Japan. I think they did. Also, I hate to say it, but to get Toei or a whole TV channel in Japan (TV Asahi) to get it back on the air, I doubt an online petition would work.

reply

Well, fter looking at an episode list, episode #76 is the last episode where he fights Baldy-Bald, so they did finish the series.

reply

Actually we never got to see that fight in the anime. The show ended when Bobobo and his friends teamed up to stop the Reverse Chromedome Empire.

reply

Also, last time I heard, the DVDs weren't selling too well, so there may not be a continuation of that.

reply

Lol, so what, did they cancel it one episode before it ended? Cause #76 was titled "Final Showdown at Last!". Thats the lamest canceling ever. Better not be true...... lol.

actually zackarot they cancelled it way before the manga ended. Ep 76 was based on chapter 177 and manga ran until 230 so it ended before its time. Sad we never got to see Bo-bobo's brethern: Bebebe-be Be-bebe(brother), Bibibi-bi Bi-bibi(brother), and Bububu-bu Bu-bubu(sister) who WOULD HAVE appeared in the next episodes afterwards.

reply

I find that to be bull, cause it's not as violent as One Piece which has blood in it. And I don't see that anime being cancelled due to violence. Not when that series has a huge fan base compared to Bobobo.

Even if the Anime didn't last as long as the manga. There are other anime out there that lasted shorter than the manga.

Wow that *beep* sucks.
