Bomberman Jetters | comment |
The Jetters are an intergalactic police force apparently formed for the sole purpose of fighting the Hige Hige Bandits, a spacefaring criminal organization with the single goal of amassing all the one-of-a-kind objects in the universe. The battle against the Hige Hige Bandits is going well, until the leader of the Jetters, the infallible Legendary Bomberman Mighty, goes MIA after the first episode. The Jetters need a new Bomberman for the team, and believing badassery to be In the Blood, go straight to Mighty's younger brother, White Bomber.Problem is, White Bomber is Just a Kid, and the Jetters suddenly find themselves on the losing end of the fight. This isn't helped by the appearance of a new secret weapon the Hige Hige Bandits are fielding: a sinister Bomberman called MAX, whose techniques are highly reminiscent of Mighty's…Make no mistake, Bomberman Jetters really is a kids' show, but for all that, it's pretty well done. The writers have skillfully avoided the problems associated with The Anime of the Game by doing their absolute best with the source material, which turns out to be quite a lot as the series moves from a Strictly Formula Monster of the Week show into compelling drama with more Character Development than you can shake a stick at. You kind of even stop hating White Bomber in the end.Highly recommended for children and the childlike, as well as Bomberman fans who can get over the fact that MAX is the bad guy now.Had a Recursive Adaptation in 2002 with Bomberman Jetters for the GameCube, which was largely a sequel to Bomberman Generation from earlier that same year. The game ended up being all that Western audiences saw of Jetters. | |

Parental Abandonment: White Bomber and Mighty's parents are never ever mentioned, leaving them both under their grandmother's care. It appears from the Flashbacks that Mighty had also received a Promotion to Parent, but then he disappears, too. Man, not a happy family. Shout's mother is dead, too. | |

Minion with an F in Evil | |
Bomberman Jetters / int_35f57671 | comment |
Minion with an F in Evil: Mujoe. Enough so that he helps the Jetters when Mechard takes over the Schumulvault. Grand Bomber doesn't just fail to defeat the Jetters, he befriends and temporarily joins them. In the end, he can't choose between the Hige Hige Bandits and the Jetters, so he tells White Bomber to turn him back into a Kyarabon. The basic Hige Hige minions also qualify. On several occasions, they actually helped White Bomber overcome some distraction (can't find the bathroom, overcoming his fear of needles so he could be cured of an illness) that was keeping him from stopping them. Immediately after, Mujoe would scold them and White Bomber would kick their asses. All the lower tier Combined Bombermen created by Mujoe and Mechadoc, most of them don't survive being destroyed by Shirobon's bombs by the end of their respective episodes. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold | |
Bomberman Jetters / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Quite a few. White Bomber is often a selfish and whiny brat, but even before his Character Development he is incredibly heroic and goes out of his way to help others. Shout is short-tempered and vain, but also fighter for justice who becomes a Cool Big Sis to White. Birdy is icy and aloof, but it's mostly because he's so broken up about Mighty's death. Misty is a greedy thief who also was also close to Mighty and becomes an ally to the Jetters. Mujoe is a smug jerk and he and the rest of the Hige-Hige Bandits are thieving crooks, but they still try to avoid seriously injuring others most of the time and are amazingly friendly when not actually being bandits. This makes sense as their founder Bagular also turns out to be this. Dr. Mechard on the other hand... | |

Deliberate Under-Performance: During his fight with White Bomber, Thunder Bomber is hit three times with bombs before he can throw a single one.

Red Eyes, Take Warning: MAX's eye cover things are red, the first sign that he isn't like his game counterpart (where they're blue). | |

Big Brother Mentor | |
Bomberman Jetters / int_ab17f66 | comment |
Big Brother Mentor: Mighty is this to White Bomber, giving him brotherly advice and comfort. And later, Zero takes up this role, bonding with White Bomber just as Mighty did. Sadly, both fall prey to the Mentor Occupational Hazard. | |

Avenging the Villain: After the other three members of the Bomber Shitennou are turned back into Kyarabon, Thunder Bomber goes to great lengths to ensure White Bomber pays. Though he comes close, it doesn't work. | |

The Ace: Mighty is portrayed as this at first — only for it to get deconstructed later as it is revealed that he fell for Dr. Mechard's Evil Plan and died as a result. Several of his screw-ups and Fatal Flaws come to light during the series. | |

Yakuza: Alluded to by Oyabon in Episode 34. His name is a pun of an actual oyabun, the big boss of Yakuza gangs. His trademark "Banchou Bomb" attack also reflects this. | |

Luke, I Am Your Father: Subverted: Everyone from the viewers to the cast is led to believe that MAX really is Mighty... and turns out, he isn't. Double subverted in that an earlier prototype, MA-0, has Mighty's soul. Then triple subverted when MA-0 realizes that even with Mighty's soul and memories, he's still the android who killed Mighty, not White Bomber's missing brother. | |

Bomberman Jetters / int_d53ad027 | comment |
Cheerful Child: White Bomber himself is ten years old and acts it, even after his Character Development. For a Wake-Up Call Boss, Flame Bomber is very hyperactive, peppy, and immature, treating his fights more like playing than anything else. At one point, he even waves goodbye to the badly-beaten Jetters after their Curb-Stomp Battle with him. | |

Mid-Season Twist: 23, 24, and 25 are all this. White Bomber discovers his brother died a horrific and lonely death, Shout's tearful backstory is explained when she resigns from the Jetters, and MAX is revealed to have been the one to kill Mighty, all with lots of crying. Needless to say, you'll want tissues. | |

Brain Uploading: The core of Mechadoc's plan—not with his own brain, but with Mighty's. MA-0, his prototype design, has a near-complete copy of Mighty's personality...which meant that, when activated, he attempted to stop Mechadoc himself and was subsequently discarded, deemed a failure. In MA-X's finalized design, only Mighty's negative traits were carried over. | |
