Bobobo-bo bo-bobo 192

With Bo-bobo finally taking care of family matters, only one obstacle remains of the Under-Maruhage: the Dark King himself. But has everything this alliance done be able to stand up to the horrific power of Hydrate!?

Ougi 192: Devotion to Him

88.
Hydrate: …………Even Be-bebe’s been taken down…
Hydrate: I’ve gathered my pieces together and brainwashed them and yet…
SFX: ZUZUZU
Hydrate: They’ve been removed from play already………
SFX: PORORO…
Hydrate: WELL FINE THEN…AFTER ALL, THEY WERE EXPENDABLE. THEY DIDN’T SPEND TOO MUCH IN STALLING THEM UNTIL I HAD GATHERED MY POWER. SO THEN, SHALL THE SURFACE KING CHANGE INTO HIS APPROPRIATE UNIFORM?
Narrator: Yo, a bit of an explanation!! Does everyone remember him!? You probably forgot since it’s been a long time since this man was introduced. The root of the evil: the finale of this Darkness series, the Ultimate Boss! The emperor of the Dark World whose greed also had him become the 5th emperor of the present Maruhage Empire! His name is…HYDRATE--!!!!

89.
Narrator: At that time, Bo-bobo’s team was…

Hanpen: So, come to me…Hanpen will read you a picture book.
Book: BARAKAN
(TN: I really don’t know what Hanpen has but I know it is pronounced “Barakan” or “Baraji” due to the kanji at the end)
Be-bebe: WHA!?
Hanpen: WHA? HE DOESN’T…
Tennosuke: Dummy! The battle is already over. Beauty and Heppokomaru are both back to normal, so other than that, we have no reason to fight.
Be-bebe: !!
Don Patch: Everyone is friends now that the battle is over! It’s natural we’ll become good friends…
Don Patch: HERE, EAT! YOUR FAVORITE FOOD, HAVE SOME.
Platter: COMPASS SUSHI
Beauty: THAT WILL KILL HIM--!!

Hanpen: OF COURSE.
Bo-bobo: ZZZ
Be-bebe: YOU WEREN’T LISTENING!!!...MY LITTLE BRO’S SLEEPING!!
Hatenko: Be-bebe-san…why would a person like you be some underling of the darkness?
Be-bebe: KU…I’LL TELL YOU.
Be-bebe: That’s how.
Hatenko: THAT’S A QUICK REMINISCENCE!! I CAN’T UNDERSTAND AT ALL!! AND IT ENDS IN ONE PANEL!!

91.
Be-bebe: Oh well…little brother, for today I’ve been lowered. But remember: a situation of a little brother winning against a big brother can’t ever happen at all.
Bo-bobo: BIG BRO, WHERE WILL YOU GO NOW…?
Be-bebe: WE HAVE FOUGHT DEFYING THE HAIR LAWS.

SFX: DOKUN…
(TN: Remember: back in Chp. 1, Bo-bobo was revealed to be one of the five “Hair Children”…with Be-bebe now known, there are still three older siblings remaining to be revealed)
Be-bebe: WHAT ARE YOU DOING
SFX: GRAB
Tennosuke: NO, YOU’RE WRONG! IT’S SAID THAT FISHERMEN FIND MAYONAISSE ON THEIR WAKAME TASTY…

Halekulani: That gross voice.
Softon: That man is the Dark King who’s been pulling all the strings this time…
SFX: GOGOGO

SFX: CRUNCH
Hydrate: ASHI NO URA SHINKEN OUGI: BOMBING LED BY FOOTSIDE!!!
SFX: BO—OM
Hanpen: GYAA!!!!
(TN: First of all, the whole sequence just now was obviously a parody of the “Dragonball” scene where Frieza telekinetically lifted up Krillin and made him explode (just after Goku appeared to defeat Frieza with his Genki Dama and therefore leading to him going Super Saiyan for the first time) …though I remember Piccolo was actually disabled prior to Krillin’s explosion. Secondly, “Ashi no Ura” is “the sole of a foot”, thus the Shinken is “Fist of Footsole”)
Bo-bobo: WHAT---ASHI NO URA SHINKEN---!!?
Hanpen: HUH---!? HE’S INTERESTED IN MAKING ME A BOMB VICTIM---!?

Halekulani: WHAT IS THIS INCOMPARABLE POWER!?
Zetsubou: DESPAIR!? WE CAN’T DO THIS—

Hydrate: YOU PEOPLE OF THE HAIR KINGDOM ARE COMPLETELY STUPID. KNEEL TO MEEEE!!!
SFX: STOMP
Bo-bobo: …………You’ve done it, Hydrate. I was a decoy. Look behind you…

Kancho: GUOOOO

TN: There's quite a bit of meaty material in this chapter...well that and and a lot of "smelly feet" jokes we can get into but we'll avoid those for the time being. Probably the biggest shocker is simply what Be-bebe mentioned: the forces of "Hair" is starting to get out of order and there will be other forces from the Hair Kingdom coming after the both of them. And of course it ties into the other matter: there are three other older siblings both Bo-bobo and Be-bebe have to worry about now...change that, they've always needed to worry about but were not really important to the story until this very moment! The Hair Siblings are now on the move and soon Bo-bobo (and maybe Be-bebe, whether he wants to or not) will have to face them. Of course, there's still Hatenko...but they never really explained who or what he is so he's sort of in it but not. The other really important matter is...now that Be-bebe has been defeated, they can stop treating him like an enemy...and start treating him like annoying in-laws. Poor guy, all he wanted was a reunion with his silly little brother and he's stuck with Don Patch & Zetsubou...you sort of get why he ran off now.
