Synopsis:

In a world brimming with hidden histories and extraordinary powers, Bucky exists with a singular, unwavering goal: global dominance. A seemingly ordinary youth, Bucky harbors an intense determination to unify the entire planet, fueled by a resolute conviction. His path shifts dramatically when he encounters Spark, the renowned Great Child of Primas, recognized as the strongest across multiple worlds and in search of a successor. Spark unexpectedly designates Bucky as his heir, thrusting him into a destiny he never anticipated. Now a newly appointed Great Child, Bucky must navigate a complex power dynamic to secure the allegiance of Jibaki, the very spirit embodying the essence of his world. The series explores themes of ambition, legacy, and the unexpected burdens that accompany extraordinary responsibility within a fantastical setting.

    Bucky: The Incredible Kid or The Twelve Worlds is know as Jibaku-Kun in japanese. Ths anime don't have too much popularity in Japan but in America Latina it was great admired. The style of the old school stroke on the character design is very good. The story is funny u can know more about on another reviews because on my review i just want to complement the others talking about the songs , i recommend u to listen the first opening and ending themes they are really awesome. ;D Opening: Yumi Matsuzawa - Dare mo Shiranai Chizu de (Yumi' s also the singer of the Saint Seiya Hades's ending theme,Chikyuugi)nEnding: Two-Mix - Last Tears
