Bomberman is a robot engaged in the production of bombs. Like his fellow robots, he had been put to work in an underground compound by evil forces. Bomberman found it to be an unbearably dreary existence. One day, he heard an encouraging rumor. According to the rumor, any robot that could escape the underground compound and make it to the surface could become human. Bomberman leaped at the opportunity, but escape proved to be no small task. Alerted to Bomberman's betrayal, large numbers of the enemy set out in pursuit. Bomberman can rely only on bombs of his own production for his defense. Will he ever make it up to the surface? Once there, will he really become human?

Why else do you think the games were never popular in North America after multiple localizations? They were all the same up until the departure from the top-down 2D puzzle style to the absolutely FUCKING BIZARRE 3D titles that didn't make any sense to anyone. Then it died when they tried to "reboot" "it."

Tells you a lot actually. Lightning never struck once in the entire series outside of what.. maybe multiplayer mode in Saturn Bomberman? None of you bitch niggas even had a Turbografx, and a lot of you didn't even know what a bomberman game was unless you owned it on the original Nintendo.

The funny thing about the NA Bomberman box art is that it's actually taken from the MSX version of Bomber King, which predates Bomberman a little bit.
Bomber King was localised as Robo Warrior, possibly to avoid brand confusion.

It's a generic theme that plays when Mujoe is around, it's a light hearted scene, or both. IIRC it plays during the first episode.
The anime does not contain Seinfeld references outside of that song.

Are any Bomberman fans upset like I am that this franchise never had a consistent mythos? It's literally been rebooted like damn near 12 or so times and each time it introduces new characters, new realities and new continuities that are so scattered and disparate that it'd be a herculean effort just trying to tie it all together again. I would want a reboot that takes the best aspects of these games and hand selects only the more noteworthy or promising developments, and reframing them in a set of new games with a timeline that makes sense. NO MORE REBOOTS OR OFFSHOOTS PAST THAT.

It just feels so shitty liking an IP that just lacks direction. Other IPs similar to this are Frogger and Pac-Man, but that's due to their abstract arcade origins. Fuck, from the very first game along with Lode Runner you already had a compelling narrative to work off of. I don't like the cringe nu-continuity Konami made with the siblings and human Bagular. I miss Bomberman 64 and The 2nd Attack. They should have just stuck to that storyline instead. I like the idea of Bomberman being part of a task force that explores the cosmos.

One guy on a Bomberman board tried to connect them in different timelines.
But yeah, it's even more disparate than Mario.
At least you know the mainline games(maybe?), the M&L series, and Paper Mario all have their own universes.
