S01E01 We Got Turned Into An Anime Again
Bakabon and his family are back in this new anime after 18 years of being off the air. Are they ready for this new era, or have things changed way too much?
Late Night! The Genius Bakabon
Overview
Tensai Bakabon has been off the airwaves for almost 20 years! What's a Papa to do in dire times like the late 2010s? How about break every rule in the anime books, throw in celebrity guests, and take a nonsensical peek into the little things in modern life like otome games, blind dates, and the possibility that a series from the Showa era could make it to now! Is this really how it should be?!
