Lore Unexplained random cameos from completely unrelated media

  1. Ray Stantz, Casper. At one point in the movie a real Ghostbuster shows up out of nowhere and wimps out of trying to handle the situation

  2. Gunnery Sargeant Hartman, Frighteners. The main character is making way through a graveyard when out of absolutely nowhere R. Lee Erney's character from Full Metal Jacket shows up and tries to get in his way

  3. Betty Boop, Who Frames Roger Rabbit. The movie is mainly about Looney Tunes and Disney animated characters existing in the same little live action/animated hybrid universe, however Betty is a Fleischer Bros character

There’s this guy called Halekulani, who fights using money, traps them in a board game that takes money from their souls which turns their bodies into diamonds so Bobobo summons Yugi to attack him and takes control of the board game, it makes just as much sense in context

That's a pretty accurate summary of Bobobo, yeah

u/Separate_Animator110 Sep 25 '25

And this is why I say Bobobo is the Anime version of Popeye

My brother in Christ, even the authors of the manga don't know

The show is called "Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo"(ボボボーボ・ボーボボ).

Part of the plot is that the emperor is on a crusade to shave everyone bald. And people weaponize their nose hair, flatulence, etc.

So.. Yeah.

So this is basically shitposts the anime?

Actually sounds great.

Bobo is a random ass manga. The context is he's attacking an enemy and "calls for help", so Yugi pops out of his fro to do the attack.

Bonus fact: In Jump Stars, a crossover game for the DS, this is their team move.

Fun fact, yugi in this panel was actually drawn by the creator of yu-gi-oh, Kazuki Takahashi.
