Shintetsu Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo 47

Through a miraculous tactic (involving Hanpen's head), Bo-bobo has finally defeated Chinchiro-Hime in her own game. But now, the villainess is forced to pay the penalty: a life-or-death game in the hell known as...Bo-bobo World...

Shinsetsu 47: It's Been 4 Years: Bo-bobo World is Heart-Throbbing Even to the Author!
(TN: Remember: the last time Bo-bobo World was used proper was way back in the fight with Torpedo Girl...in 2003. Thus, with this chapter's release in 2007, it's been 4 years since Bo-bobo used it last!)

"Creatures": WE'RE TESTYCALS.
(TN: I had a bit of a problem with this pun, but assumably these "things" are supposed to be "kintama", or "testicals"...the best way I could in making it work is to sort of make it "cuter" by making them "testycals")
Chinchiro-Hime: GUAAAAA, WHAT---MY BODY IS HOOOT---WHAT HAVE YOU DONE---?

86.
Bo-bobo: GOOD DAY TO WOOF. GOOD DAY TO WOOF.
(TN: Bo-bobo originally says here "Konichiwawa" twice, thus fusing the typical "konnichiwa" expression with "chihuahua". Here I ended up making a slight variation to make the joke work in English to "Good Day to Woof" as opposed to "Good Day to You")
Chinchiro-Hime: GYO!! A...DOG!!!?

(TN: The caption here is in reference to the legend of Momotarou, the "peach boy" who was notable, as seen here, in working together with a pheasant, a monkey and a dog [here represented by Bo-bobo] to defeat a band of Oni)

Beauty: NO, THAT'S COMPLETELY WRONG---!!! I HAVE NO IDEA OF IT'S MEANING!
Hatenko: Uuh...I get it.
Pokomi: IT'S KABUKI ARCTIC STORY
(TN: Pokomi's explanation regarding Bo-bobo "kabuki" tale is essentially a parody of the classic Japanese film "Nankyoku Monogatari" or "South Pole Story", a famous 1983 film about a group of sled dogs left behind at the South Pole during a cold winter where they must fight for their survival. It became notable again in 2006 due to the US remake of the film under the title "Eight Below", though in Japan the film was released by the original "Nankyoku Monogatari" title)
Pokomi's Outfit: POKO POKO POKOMI
Beauty: YOU UNDERSTAND!!? (That)

Bo-bobo: I WILL TEACH YOU ONE THING...VICTORY OR DEFEAT IN GAMBLING ISN'T DECIDED BY THE WEIGHT OF WHAT'S BET BUT BY THE WEIGHT OF WHAT'S ON THE LINE.

TN: First of all: this series needs more King Nosehair. Don't ask me why, it just does. Secondly, somehow after as brilliant as the fight has been, there just has been one nagging factor in my head about the climax of this fight: if Bo-bobo World is invoked in a Sangaria, then shouldn't only those involved in the fight be the main actors in Bo-bobo World instead of just anyone with Hajike abilities? Yeah, we've had similar situations with Bo-bobo World-esque fights, but for the most part it really didn't feel too much of a problem. (the first to come to mind was Bo-bobo World Nightmare, which was essentially Bo-bobo and Tennosuke with Don Patch merely cameoing instead of being a major factor...or Hatenko World where it was essentially Hatenko and Torpedo Girl who used the power since it was their fight) But here...the Sangaria was Bo-bobo, Hanpen and Gaou...and Bo-bobo was the only one of the three that felt relevant. Sure Hanpen got in some weird moments at the end (see the xylophone bit), but Gaou...well all he had was merely just a tiny blink-and-you'll miss it moment. Heck, if you think about it, Gaou, who was supposed to be a major factor in this fight being part of the Sangaria trio, barely did anything in this whole Chinchiro-Hime fight! Sure he did a couple cameo participation but he was rather a non-factor in this fight...compared to Don Patch and Tennosuke who just popped in and joined in Bo-bobo World...just because. I get it: Bo-bobo World is where everyone can participate in the insanity, but at least just have Bo-bobo concentrate it's power on those who are supposed to be fighting instead of just all Hajike based characters (not named Gaou). Sadly, after his pathetic usage here (outside one or two bits), I think its just going to get worse for Gaou from here. But...well, they did take out Chinchiro-Hime...a shame since I like her but she was evil and all...
