When Bo-bobo and Don Patch are blown away, a new challenger makes his presence known: Gasser, master of the "Fist of the Backwind" and the boy that has been watching Beauty all this time (though his appearance doesn't explain why Bo-bobo turns into a leopard).

A giant wall monster emerges from out of nowhere in C-Block Tower, with the objective of capturing Gasser and stealing his "Fist of the Backwind".

With Gasser now a part of his team, Bo-bobo decides to teach him a few things about fighting. The first lesson: how to defeat an opponent without using his own special technique.

Gasser's education continues while Bo-bobo and Don Patch defend chopsticks from a thieving pencil case. A new amusement park mysteriously appears, controlled by the leader of A-Block, Jelly Jiggler.

Bo-bobo and Don Patch's come together (literally) for a final assault on Jelly Jiggler, but after, they decide to join the Hair Hunters. While both are in competition for a position, Bo-bobo's abilities in front of fans may put him at an advantage over bad seed Don Patch's ability to play a stick of butter.

Bo-bobo encounters his greatest rival: Captain Battleship, the ducktailed master of a personal "Fist of the Nosehair" style, but Gasser somehow knows who he is. They don't know why he's fighting against other Hair Hunters if he himself is a Hair Hunter elite, and what exactly he wants now outside running around as an octopus?

With saving Beauty still on their minds, Bo-bobo and the team prepare for one-on-one fights with the Battleship Five Quartet (who are six).

With bones flying, robots destroying, and ultimate attacks ranging from nosehairs to armadas to orange boxes, the two Fist of the Nosehair masters fight until one is left standing at the end, and a new character appears.

Hatenko, a mysterious former ally of Bo-bobo from the Hair Kingdom, finally catches up with him to criticize his current status and stop anyone in his way. Everyone then learns of his obsessive devotion to his great "sun", Don Patch. Kitty-Poo, the second of the Baldy-Bald Big Four, comes along to finish what Battleship started (and to make fun of Dragon Ball).

Hatenko leads the group towards the Evil House of Blood, as if they were invited to a reception for Czar Baldy Bald's wedding. Instead, they're forced to go through several obstacles such as a returning Hair Hunter villains, allies turned into mind slaves, exploding cell phone assassins, brainwashed Bo-bobo soup, and the importance of wearing fashionable raincoats. With doubts going through Gasser's mind about his true purpose, all Don Patch wants is the power to win as well as a much buffer body.

Bo-bobo and team finally arrive near Z-Block Base, from where cute leader Dengaku Man has been taunting them for a while now. To get to it, they must first get through a beachfront entrance with a powerful robot team, who are just as good with beach volleyball as they are with asking for forgiveness.

The little Z-Block leader Dengaku Man finally emerges to take on Bo-bobo and Don Patch, showing off just as many Wiggin abilities as the heroes.

Then, they encounter Rice, a so-called King of Wiggin Specialists with a grudge against Don Patch and a bowl of full-grain attacks. With Beauty captured and facing a bizarre fate, Bo-bobo, Don Patch, and Jelly Jiggler (and maybe Gasser) are forced to face down the "Fist of Rice" master by throwing fruit at him and using friends as protective shields.

Just when the fight for the title King of Wiggin Specialist is finished, a big-mouthed ninja assassin arrives to challenge Bo-bobo to take on his master, the horrific OVER of the Baldy-Bald Big Four. After Bo-bobo and the others get past his tricks, he sends them to the entrance with a flying duck-loving warrior to face and Serviceman hanging by a limb.

Facing off against a team of ancient cultures that knows how to work together, Bo-bobo shows how little he, Don Patch and Jelly Jiggler work together outside of beating each other (and Dengaku Man) up.

With Bo-bobo, Don Patch and Jelly Jiggler being bashed around every other line (and Dengaku Man not at all), the trio come together for an all-out attack to put a stop to this ultimate enemy. Not even the Fist of the Nose Hair can stop this threat, because she's a torpedo.

13 November 2004 (2004-11-13)1 July 2006
Torpedo Girl takes a quick trip to Bo-bobo World, but not even the insanity there is able to stop her stubborn joke-hating. Bo-bobo unleashes his most powerful attack: the judgement of the nine planets of the Solar System, the greatest powers of the universe. This may be enough to stop the torpedo, but it takes a little more nosehair thrust to finally put a stop to OVER. While all seems happy, Captain Battleship's assistant Suzu is about to lead them on a new path.

Bo-bobo and company take a train to Holy Guacamole Land, the theme park base of the greedy Halekulani. With six tickets and seven potential passengers, Jelly must travel al fresco. An official assassin attacks him and Bo-bobo on the boxcars, leading to an all-night battle. By the time their journey is done, several tunnels have been smashed through and a UFO has been blown up, and all they get for their journey is a sash.

Bo-bobo and the others safely arrive in Holy Guacamole Land, but soon realize the danger of a park where attractions can blow up. Everyone finds refuge in the "Kids Area", where everyone can relive their childhood, and Bo-bobo, Don Patch and Jelly can create their own rock band. There is an adult villain in the park that can make them relive their worst nightmares, but the kid fighters still have fun and fuse into a badly drawn warrior!

Though Bo-bobo and the others should be making their way to Money Castle and Halekulani, they split up in the middle of the park. A Few Dangerous Thugs lurk about around the attractions while Bo-bobo and Jelly face off against a long-nailed freak and Suzu does her worst Don Patch impersonation. Don Patch fights in a show where he's the hero and a villainous cyborg can't predict any of his insane moves.

Bo-bobo's team takes on the Terrible Triplets (who look nothing alike) for the sake of Beauty and Suzu, who are stuck under the stench of fatal gum. The Bo-bobo team unleashes goddesses, slaps them around with seaweed, unleashes powerful whirlwinds (slightly inspired by another series), and shows just as much teamwork as their competition.

Now that the brother Haou has become more powerful, Bo-bobo unleashes a special attack to bring him and his brothers down: a roulette where any of them (or his allies) can be smashed, struck by ninjas, or turned into shōjo characters! Then, there is still Halekulani, who has an impenetrable money field that can transform anyone into currency.

Halekulani faces off against Bo-bobo's team, where he reveals the power of his rich "Fist of Gorgeousness", through which bills can become phoenixes, knights can come out of coins, and teammates can become coins. As Bo-bobo, Don Patch and Jelly break through his attacks, the villain takes them to a board game where his asset growth leads to jewel-encrusted torture, and Bo-bobo keeps rolling the rhino of fate.

Bo-bobo decides to take over Halekulani's board game, creating a game where aliens exist in haunted houses, fish are used for massaging, and he controls all movement. While the enemy seems down for the count, Halekulani reveals the true power of money, unleashing his ultimate power and an arsenal of trillions.

Bo-bobo reveals the secret behind what's more important than money: boring everyday life, as revealed through a seven-day schedule wherein he eats crab, conquers Japan, blows up planets, runs around with ghosts, and stops Halekulani once and for all. Gasser gets abducted by the forces of Cyber City, where the powerful Giga awaits him. The team sets off to rescue their ally.

With assistance from Torpedo Girl, Bo-bobo's team makes their way to Cyber City, where they immediately find themselves on the broadcast of an insane, wheel-headed assassin. With Gasser missing and Jelly turned into a sausage, Bo-bobo will go through anything to take him down. With one down, there's still five of The Six Cyber Knights left to go.

Preparing to encounter the remainder of the Cyber Knights, Bo-bobo's team is seized by a warrior who fights in a rebounding bungee fight with two pathetic sidekicks: a karate rabbit with bad spelling and a depressed man who loves cookies. When the heroes realize all their efforts lead to a bottomless pit, Bo-bobo covers it with a "Mystery Box" where no one knows what they'll fall into.

Bo-bobo watches in anger as Gasser is turned into Giga's latest masterpiece, but is thrown for a loop when Torpedo Girl splits the team up towards two separate Cyber Knights. She, Don Patch and Jelly take on a writer who controls language. Meanwhile, Bo-bobo and Softon take a crash course in driver's ed with a car-headed teacher and Dengaku Man behind the wheel.

An attempt by one enemy to wipe everyone's memories falls flat when he realizes Don Patch has no mind. Bo-bobo finishes up his fight while showing off further rage at Giga. The team (minus Dengaku Man) is reunited by J, a mysterious onion/garlic headed warrior who controls Cyber City with the mysterious power of the Black Sun. While Softon has found an honorable opponent but he finds himself quickly defeated by the mustached fighter's technique.

While J continues to throw out action poses, Softon tips Bo-bobo on how to defeat him. An attempt to end him is thrown off as Bo-bobo and Dengaku Man become the beautiful female singing idol Denbo. After a quick nunchaku tenderization of the onion, she unleashes an unstoppable sing-along show where the lyrics come to life, the villain gets drowned in jelly and beta-carotene and bossed around by a senate candidate and the fusion woman.

With the fall of all of his minions, Giga finally invites Bo-bobo's team to take him on in a battle where art where they are smashed around by his artworks. After they wheel around his defenses and consistently hit on his female minions, he ups the ante in a brain battle, predicting all of the Wiggin warriors moves. A bit of Dengaku Man finally lets Bo-bobo throw him off but Giga's fist technique has yet to be used.

After turning Bo-bobo's team into Giga's works, courtesy of his servants, the Cyber City leader unleashes the full power of his Obujé de Art, throwing Bo-bobo against a wall of sound (until Torpedo Girl helps them break it), then forcing the team up a flight of deadly steps with masterpieces being thrown after them. After a combination of teamwork and a horizontal elevator lets Bo-bobo's team get closer to victory, Giga unleashes his full power by breaking all of his hard work.

In his super form, Giga resists all of Bo-bobo's attacks by literally becoming the art that he has fused with. Bo-bobo's squad finds their way around it by showing him the power of the art of the everyday (and the power of a bull market). With Giga preparing for his greatest accomplishment, destroying Gasser, Bo-bobo is forced to release the seal of his Nosehair Soul, gathering the power of dragons and using Don Patch and Jelly to help in revealing his manliness and burning desire to finally bring down Giga.

9 April 2005 (2005-04-09)24 February 2007
Gasser and Softon return to the team and Torpedo Girl goes her own way, and Bo-bobo's team continues on their journey. When the team crashes into a platoon of Hair Hunters from one hundred years ago, they end up in a massive bridge-top melee with teamwork attacks, changing weather conditions, and a battleground that can be opened. The villains still have one purpose in particular: to take out the remains from the Hair Kingdom.

16 April 2005 (2005-04-16)10 March 2007
After throwing aside the remaining Hair Hunters (and giving them a jelly gift pack), Bo-bobo's team heads to a legendary training ground (a shopping mall) to prepare for the threat of more old Hair Hunters. They soon meet their match in a flower-throwing general who's as ruthless as he is good at taking out powered-up warriors. Bo-bobo prepares to take him on, with a jacket that cost $27.50 at a supermarket.

23 April 2005 (2005-04-23)24 March 2007
Bo-bobo attempts to fight against the floral Wild Wister, but none of his tricks to work on the plant master. When he remembers his recent training, the true Super power of his new jacket is released, defending against the flower menace and planting seeds of annoyance (and Don Patch's former girlfriends) before planting Wister where he can never return. The true threat of the former empire prepares for its awakening.

30 April 2005 (2005-04-30)14 April 2007
With Hatenko returning to lead the way, Bo-bobo's team pummels an army of Hair Hunters to find the base of the Former block leaders: an amusement park on the ruins of Jelly Jiggler's old base. Their first challenge is a living bowl of ice cream who forces them to fight his team while running away from a runaway robot. With Bo-bobo, Hatenko and Jelly (nearly) in unison, they are able to stand fast while getting run over.

7 May 2005 (2005-05-07)21 April 2007
Changing to a more team-intensive strategy, Not Nice Cream's fight with the power of SF, but a renewed focus on teamwork (and a raid of a villainous space station) lets Bo-bobo's team regain control. One act of selfishness by the former Block Leader inspires Bo-bobo and Jelly to put their enemies on a chaotic world tour.

At the next park attraction, Bo-bobo finds himself trying to save Beauty and Don Patch from a tough (but incompetent) soldier in a waterslide where he keeps throwing out traps while being comforted by his female assistants. The soldier's attempt at summoning his ultimate weapon to finish off his opponent forces him to face a very angry Torpedo Girl whom Bo-bobo uses to turn against her summoner, even though she's a torpedo who can't swim.

21 May 2005 (2005-05-21)12 May 2007
Continuing to the ice skating rink, the Wiggin Trio face off in a massive mech showdown where their choice in battle gear is extremely unconventional and Jelly is nearly killed by his own vehicle. When the wind-sickle carrying Master Jeda blows allies away and forces Jelly into refrigeration, Bo-bobo and Don Patch are forced to fuse again, but the result isn't what they expect.

The new fusion form, Patchbobo, beats Jeda and his minions with a stinky yo-yo, a sugarcane sword, and the frozen Jelly Jiggler before getting a cameo to defeat the enemies. Meanwhile, Torpedo Girl's troubles at the merry-go-round draw her, Softon and Hatenko to the attention of a tough former leader (and his two incompetent underlings), but her fickle nature, combined with key and Blabs-a-lot powers, make quick work of them.

Bo-bobo's squad are dragged into a giant coin machine arena by the bubble-blowing Bubbleuba, who forces them into a six-on-six battle. With Beauty sent away, Jelly being tormented by a weird beast, and Dengaku Man defeated by bubble minions, Bo-bobo is forced to summon two more allies to assist him inside the new battleground before even more enemies emerge. Rice answers the call and assists in an all-out triple Wiggin takedown of the bubble blower.

11 June 2005 (2005-06-11)9 June 2007
Still in the coin machine, Bo-bobo is forced to listen to Beauty facing the complaints of the narcoleptic Rem while Serviceman's attempts to show himself off are ignored by her. Desperate, he throws down Don Patch to save her, only to face a samurai whose monsters are cuter and more ignorant of his orders than he realizes. He finds a way to get back to Beauty, but Bo-bobo inadvertently leaves Rice at the mercy of Lambada and his polygons.

18 June 2005 (2005-06-18)16 June 2007
Using the power of her Fist style, Rem puts all of her captives (including Jelly, just arriving) to sleep, where they are forced into a dream world where she's the most powerful and anyone gets penalized for slumbering. With the combination of Bo-bobo and Jelly's Wiggin attacks, they last long enough for the power of Bo-bobo's anger (and a well-placed alarm clock) to wake them out of their doze. Don Patch is back after confusing Roman Samurai to the point of defeat.

25 June 2005 (2005-06-25)23 June 2007
Hoping to open up Rem's heart, Bo-bobo releases his own nightmarish Bo-bobo World, filled with dramatic and touching scenes that free the darkness within her for him to smash up. Before things become over-emotional, Lambada crashes in and releases the power of his polygon aura to change the shape of his opponents. Softon (with J's inherited Black Sun abilities) helps against the warrior of shapes, as he finds himself temporarily stopped by the judgement of Blabs-a-lot.

2 July 2005 (2005-07-02)30 June 2007
Still at the mercy of Lambada's polygons, the Wiggin Trio are changed again and again by the power of their enemy's aura. After temporarily taking him down with a paper-mache machine, Bo-bobo releases his ultimate defense against Lambada: an old style video game world where polygons become pixelated, with retro-style action, puzzles, racing and dating sims until finally being slashed down by a pixelated Bobopatchiggler.

Bo-bobo's team confront their final obstacle before the Third's reawakening: General Lee Fishcake, the powerful former A-Block leader who throws the heroes into a soupy battleground. Forced to fight on top of fishcakes and bouillabaisse, Bo-bobo, Don Patch and Hatenko fight against the fishcake, a priest, and a sneezing churro while splashing around, feeding their opponent eggs, being smashed by giant squares, listening to the whining of Jelly Jiggler's food fight challenge, and uncovering the mystery of "fishamel".

16 July 2005 (2005-07-16)21 July 2007
As the bouillabaisse showdown continues, Bo-bobo's team try to damage General Lee Fishcake, attempting to break through his fishcake shields, lock him with self-made keys, and turn him into a (literal) shooting star. As he finally powers up to his limit, Jelly turns it into a personal battle, which falls apart instantly. His sacrifice and Bo-bobo's concern brings them together to a new fusion: the violently-peaceful Mr. Bojiggler.

With the power of peace on his side (as well as the power of guns, angry birds, swords, and well-placed nosehairs), Mr. Bojiggler finally stops General Lee Fishcake. As one battle ends, the revival of former leader Czar Baldy-Bald the Third finally comes into fruition. Despite attempts to stop him in his box, a magical box escape reveals the resurrected emperor and his terrible power, while all Bo-bobo can do is offer watermelon.

6 August 2005 (2005-08-06)4 August 2007
Using the power of a magical-fueled Fist, Baldy-Bald the Third takes his awakened power out on everyone, particularly the survivor of the Hair Kingdom in possession of the powerful, yet elusive Hair Ball. After surviving a rank-driven dart attack and watching allies disappear, Torpedo Girl suddenly turns back to OVER. Now with two warring enemies going after each other and Bo-bobo (as well Jelly Jiggler), the nosehair fighter truces with the silver-hair against a common foe.

20 August 2005 (2005-08-20)11 August 2007
With the power of a massive handkerchief, Baldy-Bald the Third teleports Bo-bobo's team to a special universe where he starts removing the brains of the allies with his alternate "Fist of Blue Magic", but the brainless Bo-bobo is able to release an army from his afro and get everyone out. Desperate, Baldy-Bald decides to go after the Hair Ball the easy way: by eating Bo-bobo (and Don Patch). While more powerful, the former leader now has a bizarre appearance and the worst case of indigestion of his life from the Wiggin Duo.

Attempting to pacify Baldy-Bald the Third's hatred of humans, Bo-bobo forces him to live through an abridged human life cycle, from kung-fu babies to space school and blowing up the office, all leading up to stopping the former emperor with the power of humanity. As their team flies off, an attack by a strange parachute-manipulating Hair Hunter leads to them learning of the Chrome Dome Playoff, where old rivals (as well as mysterious new ones) gather to fight to become the new emperor.

17 September 2005 (2005-09-17)1 September 2007
Arriving at the entrance to the Bald Bowl, Bo-bobo and his allies get separated into different entrance trials. Beauty stands against a chain-wielding guard while Don Patch and Not Nice Cream ignore her and try to prove themselves as the main heroine. Bo-bobo and Gasser team up with the Three Civilizations against a ramen-creating temptress forcing them to create the most delicious meal. Escaping from these trials guarantees even more Hair Hunters in the next round.

With Bo-bobo's team reunited and facing Baldy-Bald the Fourth (and an army of Hair Hunters), Bo-bobo chooses to enter the New Czar Playoff the easy way: by defeating the duct-tape-using leader of the Chrome Dome assassin corp and taking his medal. Although he and the other Wiggins nearly get stopped and almost get stuck as metamorphing goo, Bo-bobo finds a way to join the tournament: a non-stop TV channel with his own bizarre programming and horrible ratings.

1 October 2005 (2005-10-01)22 September 2007
Now officially in the tournament, Bo-bobo's team heads inside the first battleground on a mountain of arenas: a bottle stage where their opponent is an extremely powerful warrior who uses the abilities of skulls to fight and transform into "a powerful old lady". With Bo-bobo, Don Patch and Jelly smashing his skull abilities with the power of Mother Nature, he is forced to turn into his true form: a samba-loving goofball who attempts to force the Wiggins to follow the beat until they beat it out of him.

8 October 2005 (2005-10-08)29 September 2007
Without warning, a sword-manipulating member of the Shadow Big Four destroys Bo-bobo's next battle arena and decides to make his own by turning Gasser into a giant. Even with the strange manipulation of Gasser's body and its unpredictable baby mode, a sacrifice by unexpected ally General Lee Fishcake forces Don Patch to take this battle seriously by transforming into Professional Patch.
75"Finally! The Final Fight of Finality! Except the Final One!" / "Rushing to the Final Decisive Battle! Enter the Life-Sacrificing Clock Board!! / Angry Super Bo-bobo! In the Counterattack Huge Nosehair Bears Enter!?"

22 October 2005 (2005-10-22)6 October 2007
With enough medals to enter Chrome Dome Castle, team Bo-bobo rushes ahead to finish the empire. Unexpectedly, three more of the Shadow Big Four pop up, forcing Bo-bobo to take on three super-powerful bags who can destroy the world. Don Patch lets the other two go in to destroy the rest of the competition and Lee Fishcake dresses up as Rem. Just when Bo-bobo seems too weak to take on the force of the Shadow Chrome Dome, his "super" power (and some gun-toting bears in a nosehair) forces them to prepare for their final stand.
76"Finally! The Final Fight of Finality! This Time We Mean It!" / "Calling Super Denbo!! Countdown to Love and Peace?! / The Final Showdown at Last!! Fist of Nosehair FOREVER!!"

29 October 2005 (2005-10-29)13 October 2007
As Triple Bag upgrades his Shadow power, Bo-bobo and Dengaku Man fuse into an upgraded Denbo, who forces the enemy to go through a picture activity book before punishing him. Even with his defeat, the summon clock is still completed, allowing for Hydrate and his floating castle to emerge and allowing him to take over the empire! Now with the Shadow Chrome Dome forces in control, Bo-bobo and his allies ally with friends and enemies as they race upwards towards their enemy and their ultimate destiny, only to realize that this is the last episode, much to Bo-bobo, Hydrate and the others shocked and horrified.

English

[edit]

The series was originally licensed for home video release in North America by Illumitoon Entertainment in 2006,[8] who released only two volumes on bilingual DVD in 2007.[9][10] All further volumes were canceled when their distribution deal with Westlake Entertainment fell through.[11] S'more Entertainment announced on January 16, 2012 that they would release the series with English subtitles as well as dubbed versions on DVD on April 10 of the same year.[12][13] This release however, lacked an English subtitle track. Despite a fully translated script being present on a PDF file on disc 4 and indications on the box and in the pre-release information that there would be a subtitle track.[14] S'more Entertainment released a statement claiming the packaging was wrong, and that there was never an intention to subtitle the release due to costs.[15] In August 2018, Discotek Media announced their licensing of the series and released an SD Blu-ray disc set of all 76 episodes on January 28, 2020.[16][17]
