packaging lies
First off, I love this show. It is a great gag comedy with shonen anime fun, and I'm glad its finally getting a more thorough release than in the past. The transfer is good, audio clear, and a pretty solid dub track (I've heard better, but I've heard many not up to this quality).
My big problem, however, is the lack of an English subtitle track. The package says its there, and the publisher has come forward admiting the mistake. Did they admit an accidental omission of the track? No. They admitted the error of stating it on the package. A dub-only release isn't unheard of (it was the only way to get Rave Master), and the show wasn't edited (at least not anything I've noticed), but the inclusion of a Japanese audio track WITHOUT an English subtitle track seems like a slap in the face, especially when the original press release for the series stated it would be a sub/dub release.
Quoting from Anime News Network:

While both Japanese and English language...
Bo-bobo in his complete, uncut glory....with a catch.
Since so much has been said about this unusual, surreal, nonsensical series already, I'll skip right to the details of the set.
Bo-bobo has had a troubled home-video history. It was picked-up by an up-and-coming company spun-off from ADV employees who flew the coop called Illumitoon. They promised the series without the cuts it received on television and the original Japanese language track. Instead of offering a box-set of some sort, they went with singles. Volume one arrived and something was glaringly off; the subtitles were closed-caption dub-titles that followed the dub and its varying detours from the original. The dub-title track wasn't horrible per-se, but the closed-captions just didn't work. The company admitted to their mistake and began replacing discs for free that corrected this issue. Soon enough, volume two came around. Then everything went silent and it stayed that way; until now.
Illumitoon closed-up shop after putting-out a very small set of...
Finally it's here Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo
Wow !!! Finally it's here Bobobo-Bo-Bo-Bobo a true random anime that will make you laugh i guarantee it.
This series is so random, but fun to watch you will never be able to guess what will happen next its truly worth getting since your going to get around 35 Episodes of awesomeness i remember watching this on Cartoon Network and damn i love it every single little thing about it i know most people think this is just for little kids or maybe say that its "stupid" but they just don't have a open mind about this. I will get this for sure hopefully other people will also get it since its better than other Bad Anime out there that only involves with Huge Boobs and Sex related things its really sad that most of the anime of today has that on almost every character and don't even bother making the story interesting and unique like back in the day.
