This just surprised me because I didn't know Japan even got King of the Hill. Do Japanese people who know the show base their knowledge of Texas on it? Oh my god, is Beavis and Butthead over there too???

Even if this is a fan animation it's still is a weird crossover, or maybe not, I remember an episode of Osomatsu-san where they parodied Wacky Races and Max Max so it's not entirely out of place. The only connection I can make between King of the Hill and anime is that in the latin spanish version Bobby shares the same voice actor with Inuyasha Laughing

As someone who is a fan of king of the hill and osomatsu-san; this pleases me. I have seen a couple of clips of the Japanese dub but to see a parody? Wonderful.

I didn't even know that "King of the Hill" was in Japan in the first place. It was a little weird to see something like "Osumatsu-san" parody this show. It's always worth saying. You learn something new every day.
