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!
Will an alien invasion of Earth hold Arale's attention? Will she ever be her loopy self again after a cricket shorts her brain functions and turns her into a normal girl? 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?!
