It is the year 300X, and the Earth is in peril! Tsuru Tsururiina, the evil dictator of the Margarita Empire has sent his elite troops to Earth to snatch every last hair on the heads of the unsuspecting populace! But there is one man who will stand up against the malicious invasion and save everyone from the terrible horror of baldness: Boboboubo Boubobo! Using his secret art of nose hair combat, Boubobo will not rest until the Margarita forces are gone from Earth for good.

FLCL

Alt titles: Furi Kuri

FLCL main image

Naota Nanbada is a boring young boy who leads a boring life in a boring town. His older brother has left for America, and the closest he comes to any excitement is when his deadbeat dad has too much sake. But things change one day when a bizarre girl zooms up to him on a scooter and smacks him in the face with her guitar. What's more, once Naoto returns home he discovers that this strange woman has arrived ahead of him and moved in! Not only does she constantly engage in perverted activities with Naota's father and flirt with the young man himself, but she also claims to be an alien who is searching for the ‘Pirate King.' Now, Naota must learn to live with this new intruder, deal with an odd government agent who sports exceptionally large eyebrows and the mysterious Medical Mechanica, and come to terms with the fact that there are a variety of robots and weapons emerging out of his head - amongst other things. Perhaps boring wasn't so bad after all...

Capitalising on insane humour and hilarity, both these series have plenty of moments that will warrant a classic "WTF?!". Although FLCL has more real symbolism if you care to delve deep enough into the bizarreness of it, the random and wacky gags are similar in nature to those of Boubobo.
Foop

Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo and FLCL are extremely wacky. Random stuff happens, things don't make sense, and they both manage to make you laugh. FLCL has more fight scenes than Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo but Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo still has many. As for the action-packed chaotic part, they both have it, even if they have to resort to fart bombs or robots coming out of people's foreheads.

If you liked the complete randomness of Bobobo, FLCL is right up your alley. While only being a six episode OVA, its complete insanity makes Bobobo look serious! The only downsides are its length and its ending. It end in a cliffhanger, butits not as bad as Bobobo's

Atomsk85

Both series are very wacky involving a great amount of random insane, humor. FLCL has a deeper symbolic meaning howeverone must look deep to notice it. The briefness of the series forces much more quality into each episode whereas BoBoBo takes a little longer to form connections to the characters. Both series suceed in the department of random hilarity and are truely uproarious.

Excel Saga

Alt titles: Heppoko Jikken Animation Excel Saga

Excel Saga main image

F City, F Prefecture: the battleground where good and evil have finally chosen to decide once and for all who will rule the world…or at least that's the general idea! Neither side seems up for the task, as surviving the brutality of everyday life is enough of a chore. On the side of evil is the organization of Across, its only member the loudmouthed and abrasive Excel who struggles just to put food in her stomach; on the side of good, three disenfranchised, unemployed bachelors whose only pursuit in life is romance. Add in alien invasions, jungle warfare, and Mexican immigrant laborers to Japan, and this war doesn't seem likely to be ending soon!

Wacky humour and insanity are the common denominators here. Both these titles fit the epitome of gag anime - you'll find anything from sentient pickles to gatling gun-toting puppies in these series, with plenty of laughs in between. They both have an overall plot, and though Excel Saga does a better job of staying consistent and using its story to its advantage, Boubobo can deviate heavily from it in the cause of hilarity.

Excel Saga and Bobobo have the same style of comedy; that is to say, they rely on randomness and slapstick to get you to chuckle. The best part about both? It works!

If you like the "Oh my God, did that really just happen?" factor in Bobobo, Sexy Commando is definitely a series to pick up. The humor is a bit less random and less slapstick than in Bobobo, but the crazy twists and queer characters will still leave you laughing and wondering just what the heck is going on.

If you love off the wall comedies that are too random to even bother guessing what's going to happen next, these two series are right up your alley. In both cases the, plot is just an excuse to string some of the most bizarre gags ever imagined. If haphazard comedy is your cup of tea, prepare yourself for a treat!

Although Bobobo~bo Bo~bobo is more comedic and bizarre than Fist of the North Star,both shows have one thing in common : a mighty hero and young companions,one male,one female.

Both series are located in a fantasy world, as well as having really odd and random humor. Though where Rave aat least has some sort of stories, you will not see this in Bobobo.
