Tries too hard with low-class, cheap gags

This is a waste of time. Tried reading a few dozen chapters, but I didn't laugh even once. It feels like it'd appeal to younger audiences more. There's tons of unintelligent, low-brow retarded jokes that doesn't make sense. You can't just make something retarded happen for no reason, slap on a few eyes popping out of skulls and call it "hilarious".

I mean, wow, it's just stupid. The author of this thing seriously didn't spend even a second thinking about what he was writing, it was all just spontaneous "gags" that didn't work at all. Sorry, but that's just how it is.

Awesomely funny

The first chapter might put you off a bit, since the drawings are pretty ugly and the nose hair thing is repulsive, but if you stick with it just a bit, you'll see why many people absolutely love this Manga.

The manga seems to essentially follow the typical shonen route, with fights, evil villains, pretty girl side kicks, etc. - all the stuff you find in your generic boy adventures, except everything is turned upside down.

In particular, it is very interesting to see some of the focus on manzai (a Japanese form of comedy), which is surprisingly well suited for combat in manga parody form. Seriously: the wins from comedic super powers don't seem any less believable that what you get from Bleach or whatever, but the extra layers on top with all the comedic and absurd tangents make bobobo a real gem.

Bobobo is easy to read, but rich in detail and thought.

... and to the Headache below, offering reviews of the anime: this is a site for reviewing manga. Thanks.

Just plain weird

Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo is perhaps the weirdest manga I have ever encountered, from the plots, the cast and the parody that comes along.

Love it or hate it, anyone who wants a good laugh should at least read it before judging.

I watched some episodes of the anime of this title bobobo bo bo bobobo, but I couldn’t complete it because I get a headache from its stupidest, randomness and changing of the topic every while.

I really couldn’t stand it.

Thanks

This is one of, if not my favorite manga series of all time, and it was depressing seeing it (and Shinsetsu) go.

Well, when I used to receive Shonen Jump, they ran like a 2 chapter promo of Bo-bo-etc., and it was hilarious. Seriously, it was like the funniest thing I had read in a while. But the first few volumes that have been scanlated have been mediocre at best. I dont know if that's becuase Shonen Jump added their own American humor into Bo-bo or something, but...iono,...the scanlated Bo-bo doesnt measure up to teh Shonen one
