The screwiest screwball comedy I've ever seen. So screwy, in fact that the ball has become a form of a makeshift spherical nut that resonates with a random passerby as a metaphor for the state of the Earth, and dedicates the rest of his life to bettering himself.
Though the wannabe Bobobo often thinks himself the star of the show, the true star would have to be its main character, Don Patch steals the show (well, he would if he wasn't the main character) every line out of him is comedy gold, and the way Bobobo plays off him in not only the wiggin skits, but in general is what some comedic duos really need to take notes from. Not to mention the dub is my favorite vocal performance from Kirk Thornton. Don Patch, and the shows message about hair is cinema.
Funniest show I've ever seen
Bo/10.

What a strange show this is. To think that Toonami picked it up in the first place is strange. Strange or not this anime is freaking cool.
Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo (or Bo x7) is an anime about the titular character mostly know as just Bobobo and his allies stopping an evil group called the "Hair Hunt Troop" from shaving the world's populous bald. Even some members of the Hair Hunt Troop align themselves with Bobobo after he defeats them.
The catch of this show is the amount of weird and borderline absurdest humor from Bobobo, the majority of his allies and just about everyone else in the show. At one point Bobobo or one of the others are fighting an opponent, out of nowhere somebody (usually Bobobo or Don Patch, a character shaped like the sun with legs) does something completely random to what they were doing, sometimes effecting the outcome of the first thing they were doing.
The show was written with many Japanese jokes, with the English dub came, they re-wrote many of the jokes, making the show even weirder.
This show's hilarious, though the absurdity of the show is too much for some, I recommend you watch it once. Some hate it, some like it, but I'm certain most will be entertained by Bo x7's random humor instead of put off by it.

The future is now, and now's all about the hair. BoBoBo is a master of the Fist of the Nose Hair, known for his big blonde afro and his wiggin skills. His companions-- Beauty, an aptly named girl, and Don Patch, who seems to be a giant star-candy-- are on a quest to take down the evil empire led by some bald guy... To be honest, I forget what the guy's name is, I'm just here for the wiggin'! Wiggin' is how they describe acting out wacky scenarios. It's like they're playing a child's pretend game. The stories are always changing as BoBoBo and Don Patch parody instantly recognizable clichés of anime. The mood never gets too heavy; it's all about having a good laugh. The writer was even kind enough to toss in a couple of glompable (but undeniably weird) bishies for good measure. This show's got everything you could want, except maybe logic.
This show is complete idiocy. It's madness. It's ridiculously ludicrous. You gotta see it!

I've only watched the english dub and haven't read the manga, so this review is solely focused on the aspects of the american adaptation of the show and not how it relates to other source material.
This show is an abstracted comedy parody of mainly:
1. Other anime series produced anythime up to 3 decades before this show.
2. Dealing with modern everyday for kids and young adults life.
3. Pop culture of the 2000s and prior 2 decades.
Bobobo absolutely never takes its self seriously. It goes for lots of cheap fast jokes, slapstick comedy, a type of schizophrenic "thats so random humor" that after viewing more than 10 episodes, will show some relatively constant theming. The characters inhabit a fantastical adventure world where everything seems possible and sentient being's imaginations can bend reality to their will. Since this fantastical world is established from the start of the show, a large part of the comedy comes from very mundane real world experiences, things and places showing up during fantastical events. How well the writing intertwines the normal, the ridiculous, and references to other media outputs the quality of the humor. If your thinking of giving this show a try I suggest watching up to the 21st episode; if you enjoyed it up to this point you'll like the rest, if you didn't, the flow or the type of episode progression is not going to change much for the next 55 episodes.

I missed the first few episodes of this anime but since there's really no plot to it then I guess it doesn't matter that I did. My 9 year old sister was the one who first told me to watch it, mostly it was out of curiosity, but whatever it was I found myself watching this show for half an hour. By the end I said "wow.....what the hell was that?!"
As I said previously this anime has little or no plot. It's pure randomness, and if there ever is a plot you usually don't catch it because you're either a) laughing too hard or b) trying to figure out what just happened. Basically it's about this guy called Bobobo (im not even gonna try and spell the whole thing) and his companions Beauty, Don Patch, Gasser, Jelly Jiggler, Softon, and sometimes Dengaku Man. I'm not quite sure what they're all trying to accomplish except fighting these Hair-Hunter people who shave everyone's heads. Bobobo's nose hairs turn into whips when the bad guys come around and he uses "Super Fist of the Nose Hair" to beat 'em up. Sometimes he doesn't use this attack until all the way at the end of the fight because he's too busy cross-dressing, beating up Don Patch and Jelly Jiggler, or having some sort of party with the enemy.
Overall this is the most effed up anime I've seen yet, but I'm not saying I hated it. A lot of it was so stupid and random that it was actually funny, though the narrator needs to take a hike cuz 1) his jokes suck and 2) narrators are suppose to fill you in on what's going on, which he practically NEVER does. It's an anime that'll make you laugh, say "wtf" every five minutes, and want to plunge off a cliff all at the same time. If it's ever on watch it and see what you think. I give it an 8/10 because it's so randomly funny :)
