BoBoBo-Bo Bo-BoBoBo

Okay, so far you have seen nothing but good anime/manga that I have talked about. Welcome to bashing #1. My target tonight will be BoBoBo-Bo Bo-BoBoBo. This is quite possibly the worst show I've ever seen. This show makes "Hannah Montana" seem like an Oscar-winning television program. I had the misfortune of encountering this manga in the Shonen Jump magazine a year or two back, and the preview wasn't too bad. Not good enough to go out and buy, but it wasn't too bad. There was a recognizable plot and, while the fight scenes were kind of strange, it didn't seem all that annoying. However, when I saw the anime come on Cartoon Network last year...ugh. I watched the 1st and 2nd episode (I was hoping that only the 1st one was bad because 1st impressions can be decieving). Needless to say, I never went out of my way to watch it again, and I avoid it when it does come on. It was terrible. There wasn't really a story to be told, the characters are too random and annoying to get to know, and the situations were about as random as the characters. The best description would be Excel Saga except without the funny...or the girls. Just the randomness and the stupid, at least the animation isn't awful. Luckily that was the last I ever saw of it....but wait!

2 or 3 months ago I was reading my Shonen Jump magazine, and what do I see? They said that they would be replacing almost all their solid manga that had been in the magazine for years. I figured: well, that can't be too bad, there's been some good stuff coming out of the previews lately. Maybe it'll be some of those. Note quite. Turns out BoBoBo worked his afro-headed self back in there. Bah, so now it's not funny, not entertaining, and it takes up space that something good could have been using. Someone at Shonen Jump must have be on some new meds...
