Power Spheres are high-tech robots carrying powers unimaginable. Coveted by many, these robots fled and hid themselves in various parts of the galaxy. One by one, Power Spheres have been hunted down and captured by those with ill intent. And now, their powers are used to wreak havoc and destruction throughout the universe. This is the tale of Earth's superhero, BoBoiBoy and his quest to save the Power Spheres and defend our galaxy.

At Kre8tif Virtual Conference, Monsta CEO Nizam Abd Razak revealed plans for BoBoiBoy Movie 3, which had initially been slated for release in 2021, have now been shifted to early 2025, which was another reason for the season's animation delay. On August 21, 2023, Monsta finally revealed December 2023 as the month of the season's animation.[2]
Trivia
Nizam Razak, on his Facebook account, posted about the fact of this series[3]:
MONSTA and TOMY (aka TAKARA TOMY) had agreed to produce various toys, including more figurines, merchandise, and vehicles.
There is a new production pipeline for BoBoiBoy Galaxy. The R&D team have worked hard to design a new pipeline to deliver episodes of both quality and quantity. According to Nizam, there will be targeting to roughly 20-26 episodes per year (the first batch of episodes starting in June and releasing in November 2016).
The first look was released on August 31, 2016.[4]
This series premiered on TV3 Malaysia on November 25, 2016, and MNCTV Indonesia on January 14, 2017.[5]
Nizam Razak and Monsta plan to make BoBoiBoy Galaxy at least 300 episodes, with films being released every two years, according to an interview.[6]
This is the second time that the music group Bunkface has worked with Monsta to create songs for BoBoiBoy, the first time being for BoBoiBoy: The Movie (with the song "Masih Di Sini"). The opening theme for BoBoiBoy Galaxy is called "Dunia Baru".
According to Nizam Razak on a Facebook post, the proper opening sequence took seven years to develop and was directed by Hafiz SI.
Unlike the original series, BoBoiBoy Galaxy focuses on a more adventure based storyline.
BoBoiBoy's gang seems to have lost their power upgrades since the events of the first movie.
This was proven to be false when Fang used his Shadow Bear fusion in "Light of Hope", hinting that the rest of their upgrades have been retained after all.
The first season finale was planned to be aired on 18 May, 2018[7] with one of the remaining six episodes of the season airing each week.
Episodes leading up to the finale instead began airing weekly from 17 May with the final two episodes being combined into a 1-hour special on TV3.[8]
A BoBoiBoy Galaxy Special revolving around BoBoiBoy and friends’ adventures in the TEMPUR-A Headquarters seen in the ending of finale episode will air in place of a second season. The BoBoiBoy Special was going to be released at end of 2018 or early 2019, but has not yet been released.[9]
After the end of the first season, the titles of episodes 1 to 9 (except Episode 7) and the thumbnails of all Season 1 episodes on YouTube were altered. A video added by Monsta reveals some trivias across the first season of the series[10]:
The series spent 20 months in production.
24 episodes were completed with a total duration of 7 hours and 29 minutes.
All episodes have a combined view count of more than 700 million views on YouTube. 9 versions of BoBoiBoy were unlocked during the series: Thunderstorm, Lightning, Wind, Fire, Earth, Solar, Light, Water, and Leaf.
By Season 2, BoBoiBoy has surpassed his second tier Elemental powers, learned a new technique called Elemental Fusion, and is attempting to unlock his third tier Elements.
