TV series
Ganso Tensai Bakabon
1975–1977, Japanese, on Nippon TV.
If the first Bakabon series wasn't the "original", then what could Ganso Tensai Bakabon hope to achieve? How about wilder and more dangerous stories, stranger and crazier new characters, and a Papa who's more idiotic than ever? With a "koredeiinoda!" to end his bizarre escapades, this take on Fujio Akatsuka's classic series set the standard for all adaptations to come, and put the anarchic energy of the original manga into animation!
