Nizam Razak, the creator of BoBoiBoy, said that the idea of changing the storyline came in 2014 when he was in Japan. He was impressed with the diversity of Pokémon merchandise, getting the idea to diversify the Power Spheres. They started making the series after the end of BoBoiBoy mid-2016 and changed the storyline to be more active where BoBoiBoy would travel around the galaxy instead of waiting for enemies to come to Earth. The series takes place one to two years after the original series, although the target audience is still 7 to 18 year olds.

Release

Animonsta Studios unofficially announced BoBoiBoy Galaxy in 2013 where they released a picture of a BoBoiBoy Galaxy poster featuring what was believed to be new costumes for BoBoiBoy Blaze and BoBoiBoy Ice. Animonsta later revealed their plans for BoBoiBoy Galaxy on their website. [1]
