Anpanman/YMMV

• Crowning Moment of Awesome: The show has a lot of awesome moments, especially in the movies. But the episode "Baikinman and Baikincastle" is full of it. It is also a villain episode.
• Crowning Music of Awesome: The "Epic" version of "Anpanman's March" from "Dolly's Star of Life".
• Dude, Not Funny: A bit overreacting, yet it was quite shocking. In one of the Anpanman movies, Baikinman demands Anpanman to walk in the fire, thus means his death, otherwise he'll squash the (plot)girl, which he held between his mecha arms. Since they were arguing about who should sacrifice, Baikinman got inpatient and threw the (plot)girl into the fire. Anpanman went after her and Baikinman still acted GOOFY, making his victory dance and sound...But gees, dude, you really got serious.
• Foe Yay
  • Between Anpanman and Baikinman, especially in the kindergarten movies...but that doesn't count, since they are friends in those.
  • One could consider Baikinman and Dokinchan as foe yay, considering how Dokinchan treats him usually. This troper also still has no idea why Baikinman doesn't kick her out his house. She's rarely nice to him when she actually needs his help. He always listens to her and never tries to do her any harm, even protecting her and saving her from time to time. This troper wants that Dokinchan realises what a good friend she has made.
• Ho Yay
  • Well, since they are friends in the kindergarten movies, Anpanman and Baikinman would count as this.
  • Also Baikinman and Horrorman. WTH
  • In a Valentine's Day episode, after watching Cupid go to work on some woodland creatures, Baikinman cheerfully has this monologue in his UFO: "Make Anpanman fall in love with me . . . I mean, no, make me fall in love with Anpanman - no, no , no!"
• Viewer Gender Confusion
  • One of the not-main characters called Shiratama was quite confusing, and is that even more when seeing his female friend. Can you guess who is what?
  • Shiratama and her friend are Takarazuka performers.
