Tenbobo
Means of Fusion
While his allies were the midst of an oden deathmatch against Hanpen, Tokoro Tennosuke kept trying to interfere by declaring a "food battle". But when he falls to his defeat, Bo-bobo dives in to save him. However, he also decides to eat him, leading to the two of them fusing together into a new warrior.
Background
Tenbobo is a bishonen-like male with short blue hair, barrettes on either side of his head, a black sleeveless vest with white belt-buckles down the middle, armor on his shoulders and arms, white pants and boots, and six empty sword-holsters attached to him.
Like the other fusions, Tenbobo lasts for only one minute.
Personality
His appearance makes him out to be almost harmless, but in truth, Tenbobo is a bipolar character living between two extremes. On one hand, his weak appearance makes him seem like a peace-loving boy who does not want to fight if he can help it. But, on the opposite end, he tries to convey his peace through great anger and violence, as seen by his ripping a telephone book in half! Whether or not he truly strives for peace, Tenbobo's methods of fighting make him very violent.

Appearances
Shinsetsu Tenbobo
Shinsetsu TenBobo (真説天ボボ) is the second Shinsetsu fusion to appear in Shinsetsu Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo. He is an enhanced version of the original Tenbobo.
Means of Fusion
Although initially a hostage to be rescued, Heppokomaru's little sister Pokomi proves her true power as the true leader of F-block and as a member of Tsurulina's Hair Hunt troop. She squashes Bo-bobo's team and even prevents him from fusing with Don Patch. As Bo-bobo and Tennosuke become trapped in a vortex created by their enemy's "Fist of Lovely Magic" and with Beauty in danger, the two are forced to fuse to get out, save Beauty and stop Pokomi. Tokoro Tennosuke quickly prepares himself with soy sauce, eggs, shrimp, and many other dressings, but the only thing Bo-bobo eats is his bare head, yet this still creates a new version of Tenbobo.
Background
Shinsetsu Tenbobo is dressed in a black jacket with metal shoulder pads and short hair with a spiked circular ponytail in back. He also has six long strands of tokoroten known as the Perfect Defense Tokorten Nova that float around him which he manipulates for his attacks.
Personality
Abilities & Powers
Shinsetsu Tenbobo's main power involves perfect defense, manipulative the Tokoroten Nova to allow for him to protect himself from every move thrown at him. This is done by two ways:
- Manipulating the tokoroten on his back to defend all attacks thrown by an opponent
- Fusing the tokoroten into a circular gate. Any attacks thrown into the gate will be absorbed within and an unknown power will be released to be fired back at the opponent. These attacks include even Shinsetsu Tenbobo's own nosehairs.
Attacks
- Perfect Defense: Six Tokoroten Nova: Shinsetsu Tenbobo's releases his tokoroten guards instantly after taking fusion form.
- Perfect Defense: Scarlet Seraph Butterfly: Shinsetsu Tenbobo uses the Tokoroten Nova to block any and all attacks thrown at him.
- Perfect Defense: Ring Fang: A ring is formed by the Tokoroten Nova, gaining the ability to absorb any attacks and reflect it back with an unknown power.
- Tokoroten Reflect: Reflection of any attack thrown into the Ring Fang. Example: when Pokomi fires her "Twinkle-Twinkle Meteor Storm" attack inside, it is reflected back as an army of Sentai heroes.
- Truly Brewed Bibabango: A massive monster summoned from within the Ring Fang when Shinsetsu Tenbobo throws in one of his nosehairs.

Poorly Drawn Shinsetsu Tenbobo
Like the original BoboPatch, Shinsetsu Tenbobo has a badly drawn form called Poorly Drawn Shinsetsu Tenbobo. In this form, Shinsetsu Tenbobo's personality and head are the same, but his body is very small, giving him a chibi appearence.
Means of Fusion
This form appears when Bo-bobo and the gang face off against the Four Heavenly Kings of the Elite Academy of the Neo-Maruhage Empire, the quartet (particularly their leader, Zunō). The Quartet show off their power by sealing away all "Fist attacks" from their opponents, particularly Bo-bobo and Tennosuke. With Bo-bobo's "Fist of the Nosehair" reduced to releasing snot, and Tennosuke's body being wet and soggy, the two try fusing with each other to solve their problems...unfortunately, the fusion doesn't go as plan and the Heavenly Kings easily crush this ineffective form.

Trivia
- For some reason, Tenbobo keeps Tennosuke's obsession with the character "Nu".
- Shinsetsu Tenbobo made it to the last popularity contest. He came in 16th place.
- Interestingly, Shinsetsu Tenbobo never harms Pokomi, and instead cancels out all of her attacks. On the other hand, his final attack does directly harm Don Patch, who was transformed into a witch minion by Pokomi's Shinken abilities
