History YMMV / TimeBokan

* FaceOfTheBand: ''{{Anime/Yatterman}}'' serves as the Face of ''Time Bokan'', with a lot of supplimentary materials relating to it in some way. Note how on ''Time Bokan'''s page image [[WolverinePublicity they make up the biggest part]] while the franchise namer is in the [[DemotedToExtra top right corner.]]

* NoExportForYou: Most of the ''Anime/TimeBokan'' series never made it completely overseas. Latin America managed to subvert it with the original ''Time Bokan'', ''Yattodetaman'', and ''Yatterman'', and Italy managed to air the entirety of ''Yatterman'' to the point where [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff it's one of their favorite anime]]. Streaming company Anime Sols tried to subvert this for ''Time Bokan'' by putting it on the internet, but have only 3 episodes subbed until enough funding could be provided for 14 more, and managed to sub 17 episodes of the 1977 and 2008 series of ''Yatterman'' before funding was cut from the project. The rest of the franchise hasn't had a chance yet.
** Sentai Filmworks managed to subvert the trope for the ''Royal Revival'' [=OVAs=] by distributing them on DVD and on Hulu subbed.
** Any of the various ''Time Bokan'' games created were also never released overseas, and it's likely they never will.
* MarthDebutedInSmashBros: Ippatsuman's appearance in ''Videogame/TatsunokoVsCapcom'' might be the first time people in the west have seen him. In fact, it might be the first time a non-''Yatterman'' character from the franchise has been seen outside of their series at all.
** This effect might have occurred with the '''villains''' of ''Time Bokan'', as the ''Royal Revival'' [=OVAs=] focuses primarily on them. Since a great deal of their series were never released overseas, most of the villain teams would be unfamiliar to a western audience.

* VillainBasedFranchise: Let's be frank, who remembers the names of the heroes? Everyone loves the TerribleTrio, though.
** Specifically, ''one'' TerribleTrio: the Doronbo Gang. These wacky villains have been at the center of many adaptations, including both ''Royal Revival'' [=OVAs=] and numerous games. So much, in fact, that the [[Anime/YattermanNight distant sequel series]] is about ''their'' descendants instead of Gan and Ai's.

* SequelDisplacement: ''Anime/{{Yatterman}}'', ''Yatterman'', '''''Yatterman'''''. Technically counts, since the series not only has two movies to its name, but a [[Anime/YoruNoYatterman sequel series]], two video games, and even a cameo in [[VideoGame/TatsunokoVsCapcom a highly anticipated fighting game]] with ALL main characters appearing as fighters.
