[edit] Maruhage Empire (Introduction Arc)

In the year 300X, the Earth has become overun by the almighty power of the Maruhage Empire. Commanded by Tsuru Tsurulina the 4th, his Hair Hunter forces have one objective: to shave everyone and make the people of the world bald! However, there is one man who stands alone in fighting the empire and to protect hair everywhere. That man is Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo! Born in the mysterious Hair Kingdom and trained in the style of the Fist of the Nosehair and an ability to "hear hair", he was sent to the Maruhage Empire as a sacrifice by his father TUYOSHI (a small hair follicle) to the Hair Hunters. But years later, the man of the golden afro has become a rebel in the empire, fighting the bald forces both with his hair...as well as the mysterious and extremely unpredictable style of the Hajikelist (Wiggin), upon which he can and will do anything in order to drive his opponents completely insane!

At the start of the series, Bo-bobo arrives in time to save the hair of a cute teen female named Beauty as she was under attack by Hair Hunters. Both completely relieved by how her hair had been saved...and freaked out by her savior, she decides to go under his protection after he defeats the local G-Block leader Hagen with his abilities. (a second character, Pickles, was also saved by Bo-bobo, but he was eaten soon after joining them) The two are approached soon after by a second Hair Hunter assasin and dispense him quickly, while being immediately persued by a mysterious boy who notices Bo-bobo's action.

Bo-bobo and Beauty soon approach a town filled with Hajikelists, upon which Bo-bobo tries to get along with fellow weirdoes in various Hajike fights. Eventually, the two are approached by the local Hajike Gang, who believes that Bo-bobo is in association with the local Wig Gang and force him to take on their leader: the powerful Don Patch. While the star-shaped creature doesn't seem too much of a menace at first (and more likely to be Bo-bobo's hat), he soon proves himself as powerful both as a warrior and his abilities as a Hajike specialist! Unfortunately, in the midst of their battle, a member of the real Wig Gang (who turns out to be Hair Hunters wearing wigs) kidnaps Beauty to hold her hostage. Putting aside their differences, the two of them rush to the rescue at H-Block headquarters, where they menace the leader until he falls to defeat! Unfortunately, in the midst of their battle, Beauty was nowhere to be found. But at that same time, the teen girl was saved by the mysterious boy watching them prior!

Returning to the Hajike Festival, Don Patch ends up finishing one more day of schooling before deciding to join Bo-bobo and Beauty on their journey to stop the Hair Hunters. Now a team of three, the group begins to journey again, with Bo-bobo and Don Patch doing weird things while Beauty tried to keep them in line. Coming across another Hair Hunter, the two of them try futilely to defeat him. But at that very moment, unknown to anyone, the great King Nosehair decides to reawaken after three thousand years to help Bo-bobo! Unfortunately, Bo-bobo pulls him out before King Nosehair is able to help him...but he still defeats the Hunter anyway.

As they continued to travel, Bo-bobo and Don Patch decide to throw a play in the middle of the woods as another one of their weird antics. But in the midst of things, Bo-bobo realize they are in the territory of a dangerous alien who makes one addicted to ochazuke. Sure enough, the alien approaches Bo-bobo's team, but he turns out to be searching for the mysterious boy that helped Beauty! After another strange and confusing battle, Bo-bobo is able to elude the alien and defeat him...but without knowing that he was an agent for a mysterious "Gunkan"...

[edit] C-Block's Aitsuhage Tower

Traveling forward to another town, Bo-bobo and Don Patch continue their crazy business while Beauty continues to freak out and keep the two of them in line. But suddenly, things take a turn for the worst: a strange assassin spots the trio and fires a beam towards Bo-bobo! Beauty steps in the way and ends up getting hit by it, leaving a marking on her forehead. The assassin, a C-Block soldier named Gechappi, reveals that she was hit by a "Hair Loss Beam", which will make her locks fall out within ten hours...unless they get the antidote from his headquarters at C-Block's Aitsuhage Tower. Taking a train towards their ultimate destination, our heroes discover Gechappi taking the same one back to headquarters. Using the ability of his "Don Patch Sword" (a leek) and the "Don Patch Hammer" (another leek), the Hajikelist defeats his opponent before Bo-bobo instructs them off the train prior to a firey explosion!

Following a wild chase between Bo-bobo and Don Patch, the duo arrive at Aistuhage Tower, where they easily dispense of the first floor guardian. But to get the antidote, the team has to go through the entire tower floor by floor. After getting through the second floor (a video store) with ease, Bo-bobo and Don Patch approach the dangers of the third floor: another video store! But while Don Patch wanders around this floor, he discovers a strange man with a head made of "poop"! Bo-bobo doesn't believe him at first, but the trio continue forward (while Beauty shuts up the guardian there: a stuffed rabbit)

On the fourth floor of the tower, the guardian is revealed to be Softon, the same "poophead" that Don Patch saw below! Amazingly, he ends up giving Beauty the antidote to the Hair Loss Beam, claiming that she has the same scent as him. But even with his kindness, he still must fight Bo-bobo regardless. Unfortunately, Bo-bobo's "Fist of the Nosehair" is useless against the strange abilities of the Fist of Babylon, the original Shinken! Though the nosehair master appears stumped in attacking at first, he unleashes a trump card: Bo-bobo World, a bizarre world where Hajikelists thrive and anyone else goes crazy! Softon eventually succumbs to the madness as Bo-bobo puts him down.

Finally at the top floor of Aitsuhage Tower, Bo-bobo and Don Patch try to season their enemy: the powerful Geha the Gale. Using powerful wind attacks, he traps the duo inside where they subsequently continue their nonsense. With the two of them gone, Geha believes he can finally cut Beauty's hair...until someone throws a projectile fart towards him! That someone is the mysterious boy from before, who uses his Fist of Farts to overwhelm the senses of his enemy and stop him in his tracks. But while his attack was merely meant for the enemy, Bo-bobo ends up turning into a leopard because of it, leading to Don Patch's anger. But he does impress the duo with his name of Heppokomaru!

But before Heppokomaru could talk to Beauty some more, a giant wall-like demon appears in the tower, going after him! After instantly absorbing Geha the Gale for his ability collection, he goes after the Fart fighter desiring to eat him as well. In the midst of all this, Bo-bobo and Don Patch continue their nonsense, joking on how Heppokomaru's ability can destroy the world and even making fun of it all! The madness of it all makes the assassin realize who he was facing and desire to report back to his boss. Though Don Patch first takes him by taxi away, he merely takes him around in circles as the other trio leaves the tower. Suddenly, Aitsuhage Tower flies away into a nearby cul-de-sac, taking out the enemy while destroying property! As our heroes leave, Softon looks on at the departing team, seeing Heppokomaru now in good hands with Bo-bobo.
