Bobobo-bo Bo-Bobo:
In this silly action series, BoBoBo can talk to and understand hair. With the help of his blond hair, he is out to save the land from the Hair Patrol posse and their leader, Baldy Bald, who is forcing everyone to be bald. The action series is scheduled to air in fourth quarter.

I have a feeling ShoPro got this as well, but nonetheless I think I'm scared.

Scared? I'm intrigued.

Having seen some of the show in question, scared is indeed the proper reaction...

I don't know. Sexy Commando use to scare me, but that was just the initial impression that it gave me. Now I consider it one of my favorites. But I won't have a solid opinion on Bobobo-bo Bo-Bobo until I see it of course.

Licensed = interesting but not altogether surprising
licensed for TV broadcast = apocalypse

From the one episode I saw, this is probably meant to follow on the tremendous popularity of the Super Milk-Chan Show, if such tremendous popularity exists. I just can't see it going well for CN.

Frankly, I think it sucks that CN got the license. I would've loved to see it get picked up by nearly anyone else. But if it gets aired on CN, it's going to be the newest trendy series, just like every other series they've aired. If you don't believe that, compare the number of people who had even heard about Oh! Super Milk-Chan before and after its CN run. And seeing as over half the jokes are Japanese puns, I don't see how they're planning to keep the feel intact in the dub. It's a sad day indeed.

But how many of those people actually liked Oh! Super Milk-Chan after they first saw it? Not many from what I understand. (Of course, because of my extremly limited knowledge on stuff like this, I may be wrong. Again. The trendyness of Bobo will be determinded by whether or not people actually enjoy it.

Why can't the big CN license 2 great things at once!??! WHY!!?? It would have been cool if it were Naruto and Tenjou Tenge or Hunter X Hunter or something.
