Half a century later, even though most have it easy, Robby Yaji and Hacchi Kita cannot seem to catch a break in this advanced society. Robby—a man perpetually struck by misfortune—owes large sums of money to debt collectors due to his poor investments in shady get-rich-quick schemes, and Hacchi finds it difficult to get over the boredom of his mundane life.The two end up on an adventure of a lifetime when loan shark boss Yang sends Hacchi to collect the money Robby owes. Rather than pay up, Robby blasts off into space and heads to Isekandar, a planet that supposedly brings happiness to anyone who visits. Seeing a chance for some much needed excitement, Hacchi tags along with Robby on this journey filled with alien encounters, giant robot battles, and all sorts of troublemaking—all the while avoiding Yang and his cronies who are desperately combing the universe to find them.[Written by MAL Rewrite] MALxJapan -More than just anime- Characters & Voice Actors Staff Episode Videos Episode 12 Episode 11 Episode 10 Episode 9Reviews  Dec 8, 2021 I haven't ever written a review before, but this one needs more attention. Pretty underrated for 2019 animes. Overall, I'd say it was a good show. The art style is really pretty, but the CGI is absolutely awful. It's not enough to ruin the show for you though. While the plot is mediocre, the characters are what made me really enjoy the anime and finish it. I watched it in dubbed, and I got to say it's hilarious. If you want a good show to binge when you're bored, I'd recommend RobiHachi. It's not something to really get invested in, but if you want to... multitask while watching, it's the perfect thing for you. Reviewer’s Rating: 7 What did you think of this review?

It reminded me of a lot of Space Dandy except less perverted and with more a focus on food and travel.Robi, the main guy, is very much the lovable idiot. He has gotten himself massively in debt falling for schemes pitched to him by pretty ladies, be they alien or human. As a result of this, he is tracked down by Hachi, a mysterious man working for mister Yang, the debt collector who we find out has a sort of crush on Robby. To cure his financial woes in his flight from Yang, Robby sets... out for Iskandar to get one of their crystals to change his luck. Hachi initially is shanghaied onto Robby's ship but sticks around as he was looking for adventure. The show then consists of them traveling to planets on the way to Iskandar, enjoying the local fare, and solving the world's current woes. How they go about solving those woes often made me compare the show to the Big Lebowsky in that they tend to solve the problem in very outlandish ways. Robbi and Hachi play off each other like an odd couple with the ship robot often playing the straight man. It makes for an enjoyable dynamic.Overall, RoboHachi is a fun show. I don't like it enough to recommend it but I enjoyed my time with it. Reviewer’s Rating: 6 What did you think of this review?

Don’t do it at the same time…Or, at least make certain your friends and family don’t discover your depraved proclivities.One has to wonder the resale value of Robby Yaji’s organs, especially considering the high costs of space travel. The cost-benefit analysis, obviously, does not favor the debt collectors (Yan’s group). Unless we consider the consequences of a lost reputation, and the exploitation of future debtors. In which case, the end justifies the means.“Oh my god! It’s a f—king comedy, dude. Stop... overthinking it!”True enough. But the dynamic of the timid friend learning from his ‘looney’ counterpart is redundant. Furthermore, Robby and Hacchi failed as the comedic underpinnings of the series. The joke regarding the “lower half” and the “upper half” lacked the oomph to foster a humorous moment — plus, it dragged on forever. Gags that overstay their welcome rarely, if ever, produce genuine laughter from the audience. Moreover, the childish nature of the main characters was infuriating and monotonous. Robby and Hacchi were essentially a pseudo-married couple with their constant bickering back and forth. To exemplify this point, in episode 10, they were arguing over bathroom cleanliness and the ‘correct’ way to rip toilet paper. Then Hacchi scolded Robby for concealing nudie magazines and an inflatable sex doll. It’s like the writer’s took their real life relationship issues, bitched about it in the writer’s room, then decided to ‘comedically’ integrate it into the story by making Hacchi the ‘wife’ and Robby the ‘husband.’As for the cat-and-mouse chase through space (with tacky mecha fights), it lacked exhilaration. And given the lack of entertainment, puerile jokes and flat characters, there’s no reason for anyone to watch this series. Unless you enjoy a Japanese, Futurama knockoff with none of the staying power. Reviewer’s Rating: 1 What did you think of this review?
