Late night! The Genius Bakabon
Shinya! Tensai Bakabon
深夜!天才バカボン
Synopsis
Fujio Akatsuka's classic gag manga "Tensai Bakabon," a foundational work in comedic manga, receives a new anime adaptation after 18 years, featuring an original storyline overseen by director Toru Hosokawa. The genius Bakabon and his household, famous for their signature line "This is how it should be," make a comeback alongside other quirky figures like Mr. Policeman, Rerere no Ojisan, and Eel-Dog, all placed in a contemporary environment. This latest version of "Bakabon," premiering a decade following Fujio Akatsuka's passing, occupies the late-night timeslot, reviving the well-known antics in a modern setting.
