Incorrect information regarding the main character[edit]

I cannot believe Wikipedia of all places would allow such lies on their site. As a fan of the series, I am utterly disgusted at this inaccuracy!

The article states that Bo-bobo is the main character, which couldn't be any farther from the truth. Don Patch is the main character, as anyone who has actually watched the show should know. I would edit the page to fix this horrible mistake myself, but I bet the Wikipedia staff would just edit it back to say Bo-bobo is the main character. I demand this attrocity be fixed! Also, his transformed state is Professional Patch in the english dub. How could that not be listed in the article? It's the transformation of the main character! Come on people!

I will make the adjustment regarding Professional Patch, but Bo-bobo is the main character and this is his series. Don Patch is hilarious but ultimately everything he does is connected to Bo-bobo. -StrangerAtaru (talk) 15:40, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's because Bo-bobo is his sidekick! 71.0.76.118 (talk) 06:23, 30 November 2007 (UTC)Endgame[reply]

Even Don Patch admits by the end of the series who the main character is. Heck, if you want complaints, there are some people who think Sasuke Uchiha is the main character of a series called "Naruto". -StrangerAtaru 15:59, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Yep! That's why the series is called Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, because it's about Don-patch! – 「ＪＵＭＰＧＵＲＵ」@^{Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia} 18:06, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - Would you knock it out? This isn't "Naruto", where the whole series is about the Uchiha Clan yet the main character is some fox boy. Bo-bobo is the main hero and the main character. Don Patch is a comedic sidekick. Thus Bo-bobo is the main character. -StrangerAtaru (talk) 19:22, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Um... I have to wonder something. Did none of you guys actually get the obvious joke that the original poster was making, here? He was making it look like Don Patch himself wrote that in-character. He was kidding, guys. I know that Wikipdedia usually isn't the place for joking around like that, but it still just amazes me that you guys totally didn't notice what he was doing there. >_> —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.208.33.205 (talk) 02:54, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Knock it out"? Was that supposed to mean "knock it off"? 173.77.78.2 (talk) 03:12, 5 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bo-bobo and Poppa Rocks[edit]

Does anyone know what this is? They used this for the preview in U.S. SHONEN JUMP. Jump Guru (talk) 20:23, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In 2000, WSJ had four seperate Bo-bobo one-shots prior to the series being picked up in 2001. The third one-shot was the "Bo-bobo & Don Patch" one. (the other three include "Bo-bobo and Beauty", "Bo-bobo and Gunkan", and "Bo-bobo and Heppokomaru"). -StrangerAtaru (talk) 21:04, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Were all the one-shots in SHONEN JUMP (US), I could of sworn I saw other issues featuring Bobobo. Jump Guru (talk) 22:35, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - (Goes to his Bo-bobo manga) The very original pilot (the very, very first Bo-bobo even before these four) appeared in Akamaru Jump early in 2000. Then late in 2000, the four Bo-bobo one shots (Beauty/Gunkan/Don Patch/Heppokomaru) appeared in WSJ. Then early in 2001, the Bo-bobo series started. -StrangerAtaru (talk) 23:38, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    - Ummm... SHONEN JUMP in all-caps is the official name for U.S. SHONEN JUMP. Jump Guru (talk) 20:58, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Characters[edit]

I just redirected the articles about Yononaka Namerō, Pokomi, and Gaoh to this article as they were only plot summary and didn't have any reliable sources showing their notability out-of-universe. Perhaps someone can expand coverage of them in here? Them From Space 00:25, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While I'm not working really on Wiki anymore, I think that most of the characters (well the key ones) should be handled by the character pages instead of the front page. -StrangerAtaru (talk) 19:09, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

video game[edit]

Where's the link to the article about the titular video game? Tempshill (talk) 02:48, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There's a video game? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.148.210.232 (talk) 14:14, 1 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
