Battling Seizure Robots

TV Show Information
Genre: Animation
Lisa, Marge, and Bart experience show-induced seizures while Homer imitates them.

Battling Seizure Robots (戦闘ロボットシージャー Sentou Robotto Shījā) is a Japanese TV show that the Simpsons saw while vacationing in Japan.

History

Bart noticed the show on TV and asked, "Isn't that show supposed to cause seizures?" Immediately afterwards, his pupils dilated and he was babbling and rolling on the floor, having a seizure. Lisa and Marge quickly followed. Then Homer entered the room and didn't know what was up with everyone rolling on the floor and babbling incoherently, but he figured that he would go along with it, so he started rolling and babbling on purpose. When a commercial came on, everyone's seizures stopped. When the show resumed, so did the seizures, this time also affecting Homer.

The show seems to be about giant robots battling each other. The flashes from their weapons cause the seizures.

Behind the Laughter

  • Battling Seizure Robots is a reference to an early Pokémon episode, "Computer Warrior Porygon." During its original airing in 1997, the episode caused 685 children in Japan to have seizures. The episode was banned by the Japanese government and has never aired anywhere else in the world.
  • The show could also be considered a reference to Transformers and the anime series Gundam.
  • The Battling Seizure Robot makes an appearance in the Nintendo DS version of Big Super Happy Fun Fun Game. It is summoned by Homer to finish off a Sparklemon.
