I have not been updating stuff here for quite some time. I have been busy and stuff. I'll post up stuff from the BBB magazines that I haven't talked about yet. Anyways, CROSSOVER! Infinity War may be one of the most ambitious crossover events in cinematic history but this crossover in particular as of this post is the most ambitious in Malaysia. Sure it's not something many people wanted happening but when it did, it delivered well. Spoilers below so beware: Our story starts with students of SMK Pulau Rintis (BoBoiBoy and his gang) pitted against the students of Lawak Kampus (yes the school is named Lawak Kampus, directly translated into Funny Campus but official English versions of the Lawak Kampus books has title Kuso High School) in a football match. Vanness, the main character of Lawak Kampus nearly scored as he faced off against Yaya who is the goalkeeper (surprisingly) but is interrupted by the arrival of Adu Du's spaceship and Adu Du launched out of his own spaceship due to crashing. Turns out Adu Du had brought a large Power Sphera that took Mr Noodle (one of the teachers in Lawak Kampus) and Commander Koko Ci away. Lightning tried to attack but the Power Sphera, Gigabot, escaped to another dimension, something Ochobot confirmed it can do. However, multiple portals were left behind and after some bickering between the heroes and the powerless Lawak Kampus kids, Froggy (who looks like a frog but doesn't have frog-like abilities so it's the opposite of Tsuyu from MHA) contacts his uncle Tony Stuck (and no, discount Tony Stark DOES NOT look like a frog at all) to help give out some gadgets for each of the Lawak Kampus student that are present and they get paired up with each BoBoiBoy character. BoBoiBoy with Vanness, Froggy with Yaya (Yaya lampshades how Froggy is the Only Sane Man in Lawak Kampus. Also Froggy is also the smart one in LK), Fang with Xena (a not-so pretty girl with a crush on Vanness and in this crossover also has a crush on Fang), Gopal with Aditas (Vanness' best friend who is also the school's top athlete), Ying with Anthony (the only boy who has a crush on Xena but is continually rejected), Sai and Shielda with twins Ami and Yumi (basically average teenage girls loving their social media stuff and all that), Papa Zola and Cattus with Bepop (a kid with a lot of large pimples) and Adu Du (with his own motives) and Probe with Si Kosong (English versions has him called Zero. Reason? This poor kid ALWAYS gets zero in his exams). The first chapter ends with the groups going into their own portals to search for Mr Noodle and Commander Koko Ci. The next eight chapters chronicle each group's journey having different themes and artstyles (the first chapter and the cover is illustrated by the author of Lawak Kampus, Keith). Timeline wise, these chapters happen around the same time but not exactly. In chapter 2 (BoBoiBoy and Vanness' chapter) we learn that each dimension has a "dimension boss" that has a hexagon panel controlling them and near the end of the chapter, BoBoiBoy, Vanness and Ochobot tell the others about the panels and each subsequent chapter save for the last one has a scene where they get the message though at different points in their own chapters. For example, some groups in their chapters get the message at the beginning of the chapter and some got them near the end. Each of these chapters also brings about different sorts of interactions (BoBoiBoy and Ochobot initially has to put up Vanness' immaturity but BoBoiBoy and Vanness bond over a video game BoBoiBoy never got to play, Aditas and Gopal bonding over their dislikes of books when they found themselves in a library and so on) with the Froggy/Yaya and Sai/Shielda/Ami/Yumi chapter having the least amount of arguing or bickering or being jerks. Froggy in this story is pretty much the most competent one among the Lawak Kampus characters (Vanness being second) since a lot of the stuff the other Lawak Kampus characters does and have come from his and his uncle and Froggy even has his sort of Iron Man armor (we never see the actual full set though but the full set can be seen in one of the Lawak Kingdom anthology books). I also appreciate that the Ying/Anthony chapter has ship teases going since in BoBoiBoy you're not gonna be getting any of actual blatant ship teasing like that. In BoBoiBoy, "ship teases" are something fans read too much into so there is that. Anyways, in the last chapter, everyone got out of their own dimensions and into a somewhat empty version of their own reality before Gigabot attacks everyone. Eventually, their plan ended up having everyone distracting and eventually restrain Gigabot (BoBoiBoy Light even showed up and considering the fact that this story was made before the last two episodes of Galaxy Season 1 aired, it's really something) while Froggy and Adu Du work on a device to neutralize Gigabot and eventually they do so. But Adu Du revealed he planned to do so to control Gigabot and take over their home dimension and leave everyone else behind but then Mr Noodle and Koko Ci showed up out of nowhere and beat up Adu Du. They revealed Gigabot fled and brought them to a tea party after being attacked during chapter 1 and all the portals and hexagon panels were actually to not gather ingredients from different dimensions but also defend him due to him misunderstanding the heroes' intent. And so the story ends with Aditas and Gopal provoking each other to continue their football match. This story is well made in my opinion with a lot of comedy coming from character interactions that feels natural and great action and synergy. The BoBoiBoy/Vanness and Froggy/Yaya chapters in particular are the best chapters since it showed some REALLY good synergy and also because what the Lawak Kampus characters showed off here feel very natural with their characters. It's not that the other chapters are bad. The team up chapters from others are good too but a lot of the stuff the other Lawak Kampus characters do comes from Froggy but their interactions more than make up for it since the interactions are the ones that really show that the Lawak Kampus characters truly are what they are. Froggy's thing with the Iron Man armor thing didn't come out of left field either and Vanness, as the naughty kid, seems like the kind of kid who would be good with the weapon he has, which is why the two chapters I mentioned earlier are the best ones for me. My only nitpick is that some of the smarter BBB characters end up seemingly less intelligent but multiple readings ensured it was less of that really going on. In the end, despite the premise of Lawak Kampus being a strip series that don't really dabble into the science fiction as much as BBB does, the crossover is very much enjoyable. Here's to hoping we get more collaboration in the future.
