Bobobo-bo bo-bobo 145

Bo-bobo and Serviceman's weirdness may only irritate Beauty, but if you stop Rem's sleep, she may use that as an excuse to take it to another level! And what of Don Patch's battle with Goemon...or that thing that stabbed Tennosuke...there?

Ougi 145: Rem Rem Re—m Rem
(Translator’s Note: Obviously with Rem being the name of this block leader, the title is a bit about her. But of course there are a couple other meanings behind this title. For starters, “remrem” is a Japanese slang term used for those who are in a deep sleep. And of course, Rem also refers to “Rapid Eye Movement”, a physical phenomenon that occurs when sleeping, which is also the acronym source for that alternative band with Michael Stipe)

Don Patch: YOU WEAKLING! YOU TREATED ME LIKE AN IMAGINARY CREATURE. I’M IMMESURABLE.

Translator's Note: I know: the Don Patch/Goemon really needed resolution and it had a lot of fun moments. But somehow compared to the insanity going on with Bo-bobo's group against Rem, it merely seemed to be an added distraction thrown in just to hold off on the brilliant bizarreness going on in the dream battle. OK, maybe my gripings has one major complaint: that kanji at the point Don Patch started boiling Goemon again was just too deceptive making me think it was something else...but it did feel like that after the hilarity of last time, this chapter could only bring a few modest but good moments (see Goemon's "seige" of Don Patch castle) this time around. That and...considering that people have gone time and again trying to figure out what Don Patch is, having two chapters devoted to it could get tiring. Oh and one more thing: Tennosuke sleeping in a fridge...is appropriate for him.
