Shintetsu Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo 20

In an unexpected "agree to disagree" combination, Bo-bobo and Namerou are both taking down Babuu...while trying to hold the other back from the battle! But will this finally be enough to bring down this powerful opponent!?

Shinsetsu 20: Most Dangerous Combination ~The Most Hazardous Duo~
(TN: The title is in English with a subtitle of the same title in Japanese. To make it a tad easier, I decided to just translate it slightly alternate from the direct translation of the actual title, which is the English one)

172.
Namerou: HAA HAA...
Don Patch: That was fine: do it that way in the next round too.
Babuu: NAMERO-CHAN, I'WLL KILL YOU...WITH CONTEMPTED BEHABWIOR!!
(TN: I sort of wished I could use the "nameru" meaning of " to lick", considering Namerou's words at the end of the last chapter, but it really didn't work here)
SFX: Pu...pu...
Namerou: INVOKE GOKUAKU LEROLERO SHINKEN CHOUOUGI: MARKING WICKED TONGUE.
Kanji: DOKU (POISON)
(TN: A silly point: the term "wicked tongue" in Japanese is "dokuzetsu", which is also translated as "poison tongue". I ended up using "wicked tongue" for the translation because it sort of flowed better for those who don't know of the actual "poison tongue" term. BTW: 'Gokuaku' here is the same 'gokuaku' as in OVER's "Gokuaku Zanketsu Shinken" as in "Heinous" or "Horrible", thus the best translation is probably "Horrible Lerolero (Wobbling Tongue) Shinken")
Babuu: GAHAA!!?
Babuu: GUOOO WHAT IS THIS? MY BODY IS NUMBING...I CAN'T MOVE...IS THIS HIS POWER!?...

173.
Babuu: WAS IT THAT!
Babuu: You~~~
Bo-bobo: YOU WERE UNPREPARED. WITH THIS, YOU WILL BE KILLED.
Don Patch: That's fine...I will kill him.
Gaou: BABUU, YOU SHOULD COUNT YOUR DEATH COUNTDOWN.
Beauty: THOSE TWO BLUNTLY TOOK IT OUT APPETIZINGLY!!!
Namerou: DON'T GET IN THE WAY, BOBOPACHI: HE'S MY GAME.
Bo-bobo: That's impossible...you should be finally standing up. Leave him to me from here. You've done a distinguised feat. I can't complain about that...

174.
Don Patch: OBJECTION!
(TN: Don Patch is parodying in this moment the action and appearance of Ryuuichi Naruhodo...also known as Phoenix Wright from the video game series "Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney". In Japanese, the series is known as "Gyakuten Saiban" or "Turnaround Court" and has been made in a series of games by Capcom since 2001)
Namerou: DON'T JOKE WITH ME...I WILL KILL YOU.
Don Patch: .........
Babuu: KYAKYAKYAKYA: CAN YOU WIN AGAINSHT ME WITH THISH STANDARD? I'M GOWING TO KILL ALL OF YOU. COME AT ME TO END DIS!!
Bo-bobo, Don Patch & Gaou: NO OBJECTION!
Bo-bobo: BABUU, YOU'RE PROVOKING ME WITH YOUR BABY LOOK; I'LL INVOKE SHINSETSU HANAGE SHINKEN CHOUOUGI----

175.
Bo-bobo: A BOOK FOR GOOD CHILDREN: THE FOREST'S THREE SQUIRREL CHILDREN----!!!
(TN: In Japanese the book is "Mori no Sanpiki no Korisu-chan"; I really wish I could use the "chan" part but it really didn't seem to fit here; likewise I had to put "forest" at the front due to the "Mori no" at the start and for the sign for the current scenario)
Sign: THE FOREST'S THREE SQUIRREL CHILDREN
Beauty: A WEIRD PICTURE BOOK HAS STARTED!!
Bo-bobo: ANDREUF
Don Patch: GOLBARSKY
Gaou: MAGATSU
Gaou's Face Mask: RAKSHASA
(TN: "Rakshasa", or "Rasetsu" in Japanese, is a demon of Buddhist or Hindu mythology, notable as being wicked humans in previous lives and who live on the fringes as shapechangers and illusionists.)
Bo-bobo: THE THREE SQUIRRELS LO--VED TO SEE BLOOD. TODAY THEY'RE GOING TO SEARCH FOR SACRIFICES IN TOWN.
Don Patch's Cheeks: SATSU (KILL) | KYOU (EVIL)
Beauty: HOLD ON A MOMENT---!!! THESE SQUIRRELS!!? THE INSIDE IS 180 DEGREES DIFFERENT FROM THE COVER!!! IT'LL MAKE CHILDREN CRY!!!

176.
Don Patch: DISCOVERED A SACRIFICE
Babuu: WHAT!?
Gaou: A--H, LUCKY--
Audience: SQUIRREL SQUIRREL SQUIRREL SQUIRREL
Babuu: LET GO
Bo-bobo: SQUIRREL IS NO. 1!!
Bo-bobo: SHINSETSU HANAGE SHINKEN CHOUOUGI: TRIANGLE SQUIRREL SPECIAL!!!!
BGM: WONDERFUL WONDERFUL

177.
Beauty: WHAT SORT OF EDUCATIONAL THEME IS "WONDERFUL" FOR THIS PICTURE BOOK-----!! IT'S JUST THE RAGING OF THREE WRESTLERS WHO ARE CHANTING "SQUIRREL"!!
Babuu: YOU BRATS.
Babuu: !!
Babuu: GUNUO, I CAN'T MOBE AGAIN----!! I'M BEING TAKEN BY THIS THING~~~!!
Gaou: AN OPENING: HELL SCREWDRIVER!!!
(TN: "Hell Screwdriver" is a notable team attack from Kinnikuman by Kendaman and Screw Kid where the latter turns his legs into a screw and implants himself into the body of an opponent, with Kendaman standing on top of his head and screwing him in, causing serious damage. Note Don Patch as a screw making this work...)

178.
Bo-bobo: AND---I WANT TO DISPATCH THE MOST SUITABLE OUGI FOR BABY YOU.
Bo-bobo: SHINSETSU HANAGE SHINKEN CHOUOUGI: REAL, HIGH AND EXPEN--SIVE
(TN: Bo-bobo alliterates "takai" twice...considering the double meaning of "high" and "expensive" and with his throwing towards that car, I decided to use both meanings)
Babuu: GYABABE!!!!

179.
Beauty: WHAT'S REAL IS...MERELY MURDER---!!!
Gaou: The repair costs is also high and expen---sive
Beauty: THAT CAR WAS GAOU-KUN'S!?
Babuu: Guu...HERE FOR THE MOMENT, I'WLL HIDE IN THE ACADEMY...
SFX: CLICK
Babuu: UOOOO---!! WHAT ISH THIS----!!?
Boxes:
Top Box: Grown in Chiba: Spring Cabbage
(TN: Also known as "New Cabbage", Spring Cabbage is a kind of cabbage born in between April and June and is really popular in Japan. Considering the great agricultural yields from Chiba, it sort of makes sense it would come from there)
Lower Box: YAKINIKU SAUCE UMAKAROU
(TN: "Yakiniku", as a reminder, is a type of BBQ, usually Korean, involving the grilling on site of meat on an electric grill)

180.
Babuu: Stupid: I will by this trash...
Bo-bobo: Shinsetsu Hanage Shinken Chouougi: Transfer of Arts of the Blue Sky...
(TN: "Transfer of Arts" has to do with the Japanese term "Fushisode", which I really had a hard time finding a translation for but ended up with "Fushisouden", which is "Transfer of Secret Arts from Father to Son"...which works considering Babuu thinks he's a baby)

181.
Beauty: WHA--!!? DON PATCH-KUN TOO!!?
Caption: Inside Bo-bobo
Beauty: THE OFFENDER WAS YOU!!
Gaou: UNFORGIVABLE----FLYING LIKE YOU OWN SPACE LIKE THIS. BOY RAISED ON EARTH----
Gaou: UWAAAAA----GO DOWN---GO DOWN----!!!
Bo-bobo: This is Shinsetsu Hanage Shinken Chouougi: Dream Galactic Noble.
Beauty: WHAT IS THIS!?

182.
Babuu: GUHA
Bo-bobo: POPOPO--I POPOPO--I
Beauty: EH? WHAT WAS THAT LAST ONE!? AN OUGI!?
Babuu: This is dangerous...on top of not being able to move my body from Namerou's technique are these consecutive attacks by Bo-bobo. Rather than one, these two are dangerous.........

183.
Babuu: IF DESE TWO SQUARELY JOIN FORCES, DEY'LL CERTAINLY BECOME A THWEAT TO THE NEO-MARUHAGE EMPIRE.
SFX: JI
Beauty: ...What is this...
Beauty: IF THESE TWO SQUARELY JOIN FORCES, THEY'LL GROW TO EARTH-SHATTERING ANNOYANCE...SURELY...

184.
Babuu: This is bad: I can't win in this circumstance. What a humiwiation to I of the Three Daiou...
Babuu: THE MOST IMPORTANT MATTER IS TO TAKE BACK HOME THE DATA OF THE "ZENMETSUGAN" TO THE SIDE OF THIRD-SAMA. I CAN ONLY PULL THIS ONCE HERE.
Babuu: DAMN THIS----
SFX: CLICK---
Babuu: THERE'S NO USE ANYMORE FOR THIS TEST SITE.
Babuu: I'M GIBING YOU DIS MATCH, TWASH. I'LL CERTAINLY KILL YOU NEXT TIME!!!
Beauty: THAT'S...THE ACADEMY IS COLLAPSING. BO-BOBO, WE MUST RUN QUICKLY
Bo-bobo: THERE WON'T BE A NEXT TIME----!!
Babuu: !!

185.
Bo-bobo: FOR PLAYING WITH HEPPOKOMARU, I'LL KILL YOU!!!!!
Babuu: WHAT----
Heppokomaru: Bo-bobo-san...
Don Patch: WAIT-----
Don Patch: WHATEVER YOU DO WITH HEPPOKOMARU IS FINE; I'LL DECIDE THE TASTIEST PLACE----!!!!
(TN: Don Patch uses "Todome", which is "to end this", but ends up with the reading of "oishii tokoro" or "tastiest place"...thus I went with the reading)

186.
Bo-bobo: SO THEN, LET'S GO TOGETHER: SHINSETSU HANAGE SHINKEN CHOUOUGI--
Bo-bobo: GOOD MORNING TEA--CHER!!

187.
Bo-bobo: WHAT! A MACHINE BODY!!? BABUU HAS THAT SECRET!!
Babuu: MY ANDROID BODY...AS IF BY YOU......
Babuu: I WILL ABSHOLUTELY KILL YOU NEXT TIME, BO-BOBO!!
Bo-bobo: KU, HE RAN. ANYWAYS, WE WILL FINISH THIS, BABUU!!
Narrator: SPAGHETTI ACADEMY: COLLAPSED.
Everyone: WAAAAA
Narrator: AND THUS THE DEADLY STRUGGLE AT THE ACADEMY HAD ENDED...AND THUS CAME TO BEGIN THE TRUE BATTLE WITH THE NEW NEO-MARUHAGE, SERIOUSLY!!
(End of Volume 2)

189.
SHINSETSU BOBOBO-BO BO-BOBO EXTRA CHAPTER
BO-BOBO NOSEHAIR THEATER #2
THE MEN WHO MISSED THE RIDE 2
--THE LIVELY PEOPLE--

Narrator: Pt. 2 of Bo-bobo had started and ten weeks had passed...
Tennosuke: ...Why?...10 weeks have elapsed and yet why haven't I appeared yet?...
Tennosuke: WHY WOULD TOKORO TENNOSUKE, A SEMI-LEAD ACTOR, NOT APPEAR YET----
Tennosuke: UOOOOO WHY----

190.
Tennosuke: WHY? WHY?
Tennosuke: WHY IS IT---FUO----!!
Hanpen: Calm down, Tennosuke.
Tennosuke: Hanpen!!
Hanpen: Give up and become a person who trains his brain together with me. My Brain Age is 38.
Game: YOU'RE 38.
(TN: Obviously Hanpen is referring to the "Brain Age" series of games by Nintendo, originally released in Japan in 2005 and causing a slight craze regarding people using various games and puzzles as required by the game to "train their brain" to be more active and alert.)
Tennosuke: WHAT ARE YOU DOING----!!!!
Hanpen: GUO---!!?
Tennosuke: YOU CAN'T GO AND CONSENT THAT YOU'RE NOT APPEARING AS IS. RIGHT, DENGAKU MAN!!

191.
Tennosuke: THAT MANY MUSHROOMS!!!! HE'S GOING BAD WITH NOT APPEARING FOR WAY TOO LONG--!!!!
Dengaku Man: ...Th......Th...
Dengaku Man: ...That...koala......I'm going...to hit that character......
Dengaku Man: HE'S TAKEN THE CUTE LINEAGE----
Tennosuke: DON'T DIE, DENGAKU MA------N!!!!
(End of Omake)

TN: I think Tennosuke is approaching his breaking point...if he doesn't show up in the series soon, he may just explode...and trust me, exploding tokoroten is messy.

Meanwhile...whether it's agreeing to disagree or just the same battle ending up working to their advantage mutually, at least the whole situation with Babuu has finally been brought to an end...well for the moment. Yeah, he got away as a robot head, but with how much he's been put through (whether with Namerou's attack or Bo-bobo's consecutive attacks), at least he has been set back somewhat...yeah, he still has the Zenmetsugan information that can help the empire, but at least a loss of body is still a setback for him. In a way, it feels fine to see how it ended up...but there are a couple sordid feelings regarding this ending: that it took Namerou's attack to allow for Bo-bobo's consecutive attacks to take affect (sort of reducing Bo-bobo's successes)...and that I just have this feeling that we may never really see real closure regarding Bo-bobo and Babuu after seeing how this match turned out. But hey, after all that we've been through (including what seemed like a Gundam parody and a sort-of well known Phoenix Wright bit)...we can finally move on to the next arc, where...well, that will be telling. (but let's say something in this script will finally be resolved next chapter...)
