Bobobo-bo bo-bobo 101

While two of the Three Prison-Murder Brothers have been easily dealt with, Haou is the only one who still hasn't been affected by the mayhem. But now with him holding the power of all three brothers combined, how will Bo-bobo stop...whatever he is?

Ougi 101: Collision

38-40.
(Translator’s Note: This chapter, released March, 2003 and although the 101st Bo-bobo chapter, was used in WSJ to celebrate both Bo-bobo’s 100th chapter as well as the series’ 2nd anniversary in the magazine. On these three pages, as well as on pg. 68, are a listing of every single character in Bo-bobo at this point mostly as means for the 2nd popularity poll with the following two questions:
1. Favorite Bo-bobo character (which will be revealed in the color pages for chp. 108)
2. Character the readers would like to return (revealed in chp. 110)
Even though no one really is being polled in the magazine, the volume does keep the “character screens” for all the available selections mostly as a reference to that period)

The packages of wasabi are known there as “neriwasabi”, which I have translated as “wasabi tubes”.)

Voice: HE CHOSE BY AMIDA!!!!
(Translator’s Note: “Amida” stands for “Amidakuji” or “Ghost Leg”. It is a chance-driven means of selection where people choose a line at the top and then trace it downwards, following any horizontal lines that come in their way left or right until they reach the bottom, with that being what they end up with)

57.
SFX: SLAM
Bo-bobo: BEAUTY AND THE OTHERS…
Beauty: BO-BOBO!!!
Bo-bobo: What matters is you’re safe.
Narrator: Money Castle
Hair Hunter: HALEKULANI-SAMA
Hair Hunter: BO-BOBO’S GROUP HAS DESTROYED CLIMB HIGH TOWER AND THE REPORT IS THE TOTAL COST OF DAMAGES WILL BE A BILLION!!
SFX: Drop
Halekulani: A BILLION. WHAT WILL I GET FOR THEIR BODIES?

Translator's Note: Yep, that's Halekulani to a tee. Have someone invade his park, he doesn't care. Have someone destroy one of his expensive attractions...he finally takes notice! The final showdown with the money-obsessed madman begins next time...but for the moment, I just really want to comment about how amazing Haou is for what he is. Compared to a lot of other villains both in the past and coming, he's just purely power and a bit of invulnerablility...well unless he's turned into a shoujo character. Haou's only weakness is that his brothers are a bit of a liability...that and environmental changes but that's what happens when you fight with Bo-bobo. Oh, one slight complaint for the chapter from myself: there were two Tennosuke wheel places on Bo-bobo Roulette and he wasn't hit with any of the attacks outside the group ones? OK, maybe its a break for the wobbly one but I sort of expected him to get at least one personal excruiating experience from the ordeal.
