Dr. Slump Manga, volumes 13 and 14

Volume 13

Dr. Mashirito, Senbei's rival, appears again. He makes a robot like Arale, but it's male and he calls it Caramel Man 004. The robot's goal is to destroy Arale. It meets Arale and is suprised she's not the monster it had been led to expect.

The robot hits Arale, but Arale thinks it's all a game and considers him her friend. Mashirito uses a mask to pass himself off as Senbei and the robot attacks him. The robot is thrown out of its home b Mashirito and goes to Penguin Village to live. The robot runs out of energy and Arale brings it some of her own energy mix.

The robot now goes by the name Obotchaman and starts going to school with Arale. There's some funny scenes in that section.

Mashirito makes another robot, caramel man 006, and it looks like Arale. He also makes a huge robot man 007 to attack the village. Obotchaman realizes the real Arale is in danger from cm 006.

Volume 14

The evil scientist's robot smashes Arale to pieces. Obotchaman gets angry at Mashirito. The robot also defeats Obotchaman. Then the two gatchan's appear. They manage to get rid of the robot and Senbi finds Arale and Obotchaman and fixes them.

The fix isn't easy, though, and he puts Arale's head on Obotchaman's body for a while. An anatomically correct Obotchaman. (Arale is not anatomically correct, by the way.)

Mashirito tries to kill Senbei but fails. Senbei fixes Arale but there's a difference. She can now fly by farting. He fixes that and also fixes Obotchaman's body.

Then there's a story about the two Gatchans. Then there's a story about Suppaman. Rip Van Suppaman. He again displays his basically evil, and quite incompetent, manner. Syoppaman is a brother of Suppaman. Poor kid.

Then there's a hilarious section where a criminal alligator is causing problems. The police call in Arale to 'go play' with the alligator. Soon the alligator is begging the police to arrest him (and keep him safe.)

Midori gets really concerned about her weight and tries exercising. A lot. She gains. She's pregnant.

After that there's a section entitled Poop-Boy Finds a Home.
