Robot girl hijinks from the creator of Dragon Ball!

When goofy inventor Senbei Norimaki creates a precocious robot named Arale, his masterpiece turns out to be more than he bargained for!

And what will the local police station do, now that she's started turning in lost-and-found items that nobody wants found—like poop?!
