Shintetsu Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo 13

Bo-bobo is in a whole wheat situation as he rye's his way through the sourdough nature of Plain Bread-chan! Has he bitten off more than he can chew or will he finally be left to crumbs on the verge of finding Heppokomaru!?

Bo-bobo: GUBAA
Beauty: BO-BOBO!!
Plain Bread: The best-if-eaten date on my crumb bullets is 3 hours. If you ignore them in your body, they'll immediately rot and destroy your internal organs.
Beauty: THAT'S...
Don Patch: LEAVE THAT TO US! BREADCRUMBS ARE A PIGEON'S FAVORITE FOOD, POPPO---!!
(TN: "Poppo" is the onomatopeia for a cooing pigeon)
Gaou: WE'LL EAT THEM ALL OUT, POPPO--!!
Don Patch: POPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPO!!!
Gaou: POPOPOPOPOPOPOPOPO!!
Both foreheads: PIGEON POPPO
Bo-bobo: GYAAAAAAA
Beauty: THEY'RE CONVERSELY OPENING WOUNDS!!!!

45.
Don Patch: PO!
Don Patch: AN OMIKUJI!? AND FURTHER IT'S TERRIBLE LUCK!!
(TN: "Omikuji" is a written oracle kept at a Shinto shrine or Buddhist temple, usually taken to determine the luck of one who pulls it. Don Patch's luck turned out to be "daikyou" or "terrible luck"/"Great Curse", the worst you can get)
Luck: DAIKYOU/TERRIBLE LUCK: YOU'LL DIE, YAY--
Bo-bobo: YOU GUYS...THAT'S SHINSETSU HANAGE SHINKEN OUGI: BO-BOBO OMIKUJI: IT'S AN OUGI WHERE YOU CAN ENJOY AN OMIKUJI AT THE SAME TIME AS YOU TAKE OUT THE BREADCRUMBS! PULL THEM OUT UNTIL YOU'RE SATISFIED.
Don Patch: KNOWING THAT, I'LL PULL UNTIL I TAKE OUT A GREAT BLESSING--!!
(TN: "Great blessing"/"excellent luck" is the fortune of "daikichi")
Bo-bobo: GYAAAAA
Beauty: AND THE BREADCRUMBS!?
Bo-bobo: Further, that omikuji exists near that.
Beauty: NEAR THAT!?
Bo-bobo: AN UNEXPLODED BOMB.

46.
Don Patch: FUOO---
Gaou: Ah, Great blessing.
Don Patch: GUWAAAAA
Pipe: KABO--OM KABO--OM, THAT'S A KABO--OM
(TN: Note that a pipe is saying "Kaboom": that's just another crazy Bo-bobo language pun: "kaboom" is "dokaan" in Japanese, while "dokan" is an "earthenware pipe")
Beauty: YOU GUYS!!
Beauty: EEH!? THEY'RE 3 YAMCHAS!!?
(TN: While it's obvious this is a Dragon Ball reference, all three of them are in the exact pose Yamcha was in after he was killed by a Saibaman early in the battle with Vegeta and Nappa)

47.
Bo-bobo: KU...I NEARLY DIED.
Don Patch: COME BACK QUICKLY, GOKU---!! (UWAAA)
(TN: On the other hand, this scene where Don Patch becomes Krillin is the moment after Tienshinhan has killed himself for nothing against Nappa)
Don Patch: !!
Gaou: SAIBAMAN, SCATTER INTO THE DAWN.
(TN: A weird bit I really never knew: the little creatures aren't "Saibaman" but "Saibaiman": "saibai" is Japanese for "agriculture", which explains why they had been born by being planted into the ground. BTW: While I guess Gaou is trying to act like a Saibaman, his stance on Don Patch now more reminds me of Chaotzu's sacrifice)
Don Patch: WHAT'S WITH THAT LINE...!? GUBAA!!!!
Beauty: .........
Students: AS EXPECTED FROM PLAIN BREAD-CHAN-SAMA, THE #1 RICHEST AT THE ACADEMY---! YOU'RE STRONG----!! PLAIN BREAD PLAIN BREAD PLAIN BREAD
Beauty: WHA! THESE STUDENTS CAME HERE UNAWARINGLY...
Plain Bread: I made blood spurt out of the poor people.........wipe it with these tissues...
Beauty: A ROLE OF BILLS IN PLACE OF TISSUES!!? (That's conversely a mean blow)

48.
Don Patch: KE...ALL OF YOUR VALUES IS JUST MONEY; YOU'RE THOROUGHLY STUPID.
Plain Bread: WHAT?
Bo-bobo: MONEY MONEY MONEY---!!!
Beauty: THEY'RE ALL GOING IN----!!!
Don Patch: GET!!!
Gaou: Aah!!
Bo-bobo: UNDERSTAND THIS: WE DON'T BEND TO MONEY. WE'RE THOSE SORT OF MEN.
Beauty: Uwaa...

49.
Plain Bread: Kukuku...this isn't just about money: this is all of you on a losing team and me. I'm of an elevated status, even comparing our lives themselves.
Bo-bobo: WHAT!?
Plain Bread: THE ULTIMATE NIGHT VIEW AND THE ULTIMATE DINNER...THE ULTIMATE PARTNER...(in scene) CHEERS.

Don Patch: IT'S STILL EARLY TO BE AT THE LIMIT!!
Cup: PENS IN HERE
Beauty: EEH!!? SO THEN ALL OF YOU DRAW THIS MANGA YOURSELVES!!?

Don Patch: I'VE DONE IT!!!
"Manga":
"Don Patch: I've said this but
"Don Patch": It's cuttlefish flavor.
"Heppokomaru": Love therefore is alive.
Bo-bobo: ............Do you plan to die in this battle!!
Beauty (The Real One): WHAT IS THIS SUPER-DRAMATIC MANGA!!? NOW THIS ISN'T BO-BOBO!!
Gaou: It'll be fine: the remaining pages were completed...

Plain Bread: WHAT?
Bo-bobo: IN THANKS, HERE WE'LL GIVE YOU ONE MORE PRESENT. THIS "PURE-GOLD OVEN TOASTER" EXCLUSIVE FOR A WINNING TEAM!!
Plain Bread: Ooh.
Plain Bread: How magnificent. There's a sensation that's like I'm home...
Bo-bobo: DUMMY!! WE'VE CAUGHT YOU!!
Don Patch: He was weak in his speech about winning teams.
Plain Bread: A TRAP!
Plain Bread: HAHHAHHA, YOU IDIOTS!! YOU WERE GOING TO LOCK ME IN A TOASTER AND KILL ME BY BURNING ME, BUT I AM PLAIN BREAD!! WHEN I GET BURNED, I JUST BECOME TOAST!! HEAT IS INEFFECTIVE!! HAHHAHHA, HOW DISSAPOINTING; SO WHAT WILL YOU DO BO-BOBO?

54.
Bo-bobo: Shinsetsu Hanage Shinken Chouougi: Drop It Down

55.
Plain Bread: GYABAN!!!!!
Beauty: A DEMON!! IT'S A DEMONIC TECHNIQUE!!!
Plain Bread: ...Gu...uuh...
Plain Bread: What was that?...That staggering impact now...? What exactly have you done to me...?...
Beauty: There truly are things that are better not to know about in this world...

56.
Don Patch: OSSHA--THAT DECIDED IT NOW, WE'VE WON!!
Students: PLAIN BREAD-SAMA, PLAIN BREAD-SAMA
Plain Bread: You...losing team guys have a mocking behavior to me of a winning team...
Bo-bobo: Look closer once more to your own figure now.
Plain Bread: WHAT!?
Bo-bobo: THAT BATTLE NOW HAS TORN YOUR CLOTHING AND YOUR TRUE FORM HAS EMERGED!!
Plain Bread: DA...DAMN!!
Boy 1: AAH!! BENEATH THE CLOTHING OF PLAIN BREAD-SAMA, WHO POSSESSED THE MOST MONEY IN THE ACADEMY, IS THE APPEARANCE OF A POOR PERSON!?
Girl: HE'S BEEN DECEIVING US UNTIL NOW!!
Boy 2: He put tape on used-up hand warmers and is still using them!!
(TN: The "hand warmers" are disposable packets that usually have a chemical inside which can be activated to warm someone portably)

57.
Bo-bobo: So then you were a poor person wearing the skin of the winning team after all.
Plain Bread: YOU REALIZED IT!? HOW!?
Bo-bobo: THERE ISN'T A REASON FOR THE RICH TO HAVE PLAIN BREAD,
Beauty: Certainly...
Don Patch: AAH!! THE MONEY FROM EARLIER WAS ALSO ALL COUNTERFEIT.
Bo-bobo: GUYS WHO ABOUT WORTHLESS THINGS ONE BY ONE AND COMPARE THEMSELVES TO PEOPLE ARE THE TRUE LOSING TEAM.
Plain Bread: FU...I'VE COMPLETELY LOST. YOU'RE AN AMAZING MAN...I'LL TELL THIS TO YOU: THE REASON I BECAME LIKE THIS WAS THREE YEARS AGO...

58.
Gaou: YOUR STORY IS TOO LONG!!!!!
Plain Bread: BUBOHA!!!!
Gaou: YOUR STORIES THAT ARE JUST THAT LONG ARE DONE!
Beauty: NO, HE DIDN'T SPEAK EVEN A WORD.
Bo-bobo: Now, tell us the whereabouts of Heppokomaru.
Plain Bread: I'll tell you.
Plain Bread: Heppokomaru-sama is on the rooftop of building #3 of the academy together with Babuu-sama. There you will know of this academy's secret.

59.
Caption: ROOFTOP
Pepepvitch: Since Ramen High School is destroyed, you will go into Spaghetti Academy!! Fine then, Namero!! Obey Babuu-sama and defeat Bo-bobo!!
Babuu: Sho you're Namerou-chwan~~let me welcome you~~
Namerou: ORDERS TO ME BY SCARECROWS. HOW ANNOYING, ANNOYING.

TN: For a chapter talking about rescuing Heppokomaru...there surely was so little Heppokomaru. Heck if we didn't have Namerou's scene at the end, he wouldn't have shown up at all...and that would have totally defeated the purpose aside it being a title (and the main focus of this arc in general for the moment) Anyway, Bo-bobo basically got to the main point of Plain Bread-chan's existence in a silly way, revealing something that really should have been more obvious to us (that "plain white bread" is hardly ever used by the rich) and thus taking him down and finishing the destruction of the B3. Probably the best part of the whole thing is the whole depiction of losers being "manga artists and assistants"...considering it seemed a bit like Sawai was poking fun at himself. On the other hand...who knew they could just come up with consecutive jokes involving Yamcha being blown up by a Saibaman? (but of course...it's Yamcha, the king of being the butt of everyone's jokes, even Bo-bobo's)
