Ooi! Tonbo 2nd Season – 04
This episode represented a pretty big test both for Ooi! Tonbo and its title character.
Ooi! Tonbo 2nd Season – 07

Ooi! Tonbo 2nd Season – 02
This was excellent on all fronts, and irresistible in the same way the first season almost always was.

Ooi! Tonbo – 06

Ooi! Tonbo – 07

Ooi! Tonbo – 05
This is developing into something of a battle of both wits and wills between Igaiga and Tonbo.
Ooi! Tonbo – 02
As my friend in the film biz says, "you can't copyright an idea, only the execution of an idea".
Ooi! Tonbo – 04
As I suspected after last week's episode, it looks as if the duty of the prodigy is going to be a major theme of Ooi! Tonbo going forward.
Ooi! Tonbo – 08
At this point I'm pretty much resigned that Ooi! Tonbo is mostly going to be an LiA echo chamber.
Ooi! Tonbo – 10
If there was such a thing as golf porn, that was it.
Ooi! Tonbo – 12

Ooi! Tonbo – 03
