So. In 2002, Studio Deen made a Bomberman anime named "Bomberman Jetters." The summary from Wikipedia says "the Jetters are a highly trained intergalactic police force for keeping unique items safe from the Hige-Hige bandits." okay, sure.

Here's the first opening to the show, you know, as a taste of the vibe, but you can probably guess the score. Adventure shows for kids from this era are all pretty similar, barring some standouts.

Where am I going with this? Well, that guy up top is Mujoe. In the stereotypical brains/brawn combo antagonist, he's the muscle. Again, from Wikipedia: "A pawn of Bagular, Mujoe is usually in charge of commanding the Hige-Hige Gang's troops. He resembles a pro wrestler." Sure does.

Okay. So, look at that guy. Here's another image.. Here's one more.

Now.

I want you to think hard about what his theme music might be. You know the deal: The show cuts away from the heroes, we see a wide shot of some situation, and a familar tune plays before the show reveals Mujoe working on some evil plan. Scheming and whatnot. Cartoon stuff. What might that sound like?

Because, and this is the revelation: It actually sounds like this.
