[tires screeching]
[Peter Potamus] Okay, everybody comfy?
Here's one of my favorites.
This is Darcy.
From the obscure 1950s anime,
Adventures in Mail.
But be careful around her.
Chemicals in these older toys,
they can make your hands go numb.
[hisses]
- [cheering] - And here's the shoe
from the classic anime,
I fell into a coma and woke up as a shoe
and now I'm a basketball player for the cosmic space prince.
Yeah, check that out.
- [Yakky] Wow. - And here's the Cake Man box.
The Cake Man figure has never been found.
- And here's Doctor Ranchy... - [yawning, snoring]
...from Doctor Ranchy's Tummy Time!
Oh, yeah, yeah. Uh-huh.
[Peter Potamus] And those are stickers made from Mangaka bones.
- Chomps, the flatulent lizard. - [Chomps passes wind]
Desk Daddy. Oh, that's relatable.
Oh, my gosh, they're all dead!
is the name of the manga those coffins are from.
[slurping]
So why do you need us to watch all your toys?
I have many enemies, Augie.
My rival, Little Rok?
Oh, he's been after this fat stash for years.
- [watch beeping] - Oh, yikes. Look at the time.
I gotta leave soon.
Uh, but why did you ask us to look after your collection?
We're not the most responsible group.
I accidentally put pants on my head.
I got to try that.
Well, the answer is simple.
I can tell just by looking at you
that you're pure of heart, Augie.
Ooh, I am?
But maybe I should test your purity, you know, just to be sure.
Would you kill a guy?
Mmm, it depends.
That's right, Augie. There are many gray areas for the pure of heart.
And now, before I go, keep this button.
It may be the last line of defense
against that total weeb, Little Rok.
If anything happens to my collection,
you just give this a press and I'll come running.
Oh, responsibility.
Okay, off I go. See you in a couple days.
- This button will never leave my grasp. - [door closes]
- Ooh, can I see that? - Oh, okay.
- [buzzes] - Unhand my goods, Little Rok!
Oh, wait. Where's the emergency?
Uh, there isn't one?
Please, only press the button if it's absolutely necessary.
- I'm counting on you, Augie. - Mmm.
Well, back down I go.
[grunting]
Okay, I'm stuck. [sighs]
Could, uh, one of you guys, uh, step on my face?
No, don't.
I could compose a thousand sonnets about this view.
Hmm. [sniffing]
Oh! Tigers don't smell like that.
Anime toothpaste!
[chuckles] What makes that anime?
Whoa!
Ooh, minty.
We're supposed to be protecting Peter's things, not using them.
Aw, my hygiene.
I wanted to brush my teeth.
What are you guys up to?
Well, we found these weird old rectangles,
and it turns out there's cartoons on them.
Wanna take a break and watch with us?
[sighs] I guess I do have some time
now that I've secured the door.
- Okay, sure. But just for a few minutes. - [tv switches on]
[music playing on tv]
- [engine revving] - [grunting]
You foolish dog.
There's no way you're advancing any further
in this tournament arc.
Don't listen to him.
Your friends are all here to support you! [giggles]
That's right, Phooey.
Remember the power of friendship.
[chuckling]
Thanks to my friends and my cat,
your time is up.
This is the greatest thing
my impressionable young mind has ever witnessed.
Didn't expect me to have a second car, did you, Phooey?
Especially after I turned yours into a sandwich.
[laughing wickedly]
Phooey, tag me in.
Friendship formation stance!
[grunting]
[both grunting]
Your large swollen cat doesn't scare me.
I-- Hey, wait. What are you doing?
A ticket? Oh, great. My insurance!
[cat] You did it, Phooey! You won the tournament.
We can finally resurrect our dead mother
and live happily ever after.
[crickets chirping]
[snoring]
[gasps]
How long have I been watching anime?
Oh no, everything is gone!
[yelling]
[screaming]
Four screams?
I feel like something might be wrong.
Someone came in and took everything.
We'll just use that little button thingy.
But if I press this button, Peter will know I messed up
and nobody will trust me anymore.
And my daddy might get so sad,
he cuts my daily kisses in half.
Hey, maybe this convenient TV commercial will help.
- Hello, friends. - [squawks]
Do you like anime? Or even manga?
Aka anime that doesn't move?
Has your entire family slipped one right after the other
on a banana peel within 50 feet of a business?
[squawks]
Well, then come see me, Little Rok.
Wait, did he say "Little Rok"?
[Little Rok] At Little Rok's Big Museum of Anime and Manga memorabilia.
And class action lawsuits.
We've got walls and walls of unopened toys
that children will never be able to enjoy.
And we recently added a new display
of some of the rarest collectibles anyone's ever seen.
We've got the Cake Man box.
[gasps]
We have a replica model of the shoe
from the classic anime,
I fell into a coma and woke up as a shoe
and now I'm a basketball player for the cosmic space prince!
- [gasps] - Even this one of a kind
Meow Meow Master's photo frame.
[squawks]
That's Peter's stuff.
We gotta do something.
What have these tapes taught us?
Uh, I can turn into a hammer?
That I should solve everything with violence?
Anything is possible with the power of friendship.
Let's go steal back that collection ourselves.
[funky music playing]
[grunts] You guys got your disguises on?
[mimics engine, sreeches]
Beep! I'm the car.
Hmm.
[grunting]
Darn. Locked.
Vroom, vroom--
Actually, I think we just need to pull.
[Little Rok] You may have gotten past
my first line of defense,
but there's plenty more where that came from.
[squawks]
Let's see you simpletons get past my next trap.
Security mode, cardboard calamity.
[laughing]
[alarm blaring]
Anime cardboard standies?
Oh, you wanna fight these muscles?
[all grunting]
[groaning]
Wait. Where's Yakky?
[grunting] Go without me.
This is my tournament arc.
- [grunts] - These are the risks
- we take loving anime. - [Yakky groaning]
Whoa, look! That's where Peter's stuff is.
We're almost there.
Oh. Keep an eye out for more traps, though.
Please, Augie, with moves as cool as mine,
ain't nothing going to get in our way.
- We'll be fine-- - [screams]
[Little Rock] Ha! Looks like someone hasn't seen
"Ultra Panda Secret Hole"
Believe it.
[grunting]
I don't think we're getting out of here.
Unless one of us can get taller.
Come on, puberty.
Come on.
[grunting]
Is it time to finally press the button?
No. All we have to do is just ask,
"What would anime do?"
I think they wait for the manga to tell them what to do.
Well, worth a try.
Did you see that?
Huh?
"Toy Heist Apocalypse Jellystone"?
Oh, okay. Well, it says here
we could just charge up and jump out.
Sounds good to me.
- Charging! - [powering up]
[grunting]
Wow. It worked. It really worked.
All righty. Come on, Shag.
Yeah.
I can't jump too high right now.
I filled these pool floaties with a bunch of rocks
so they'd look more like the swollen cat's muscles.
I don't really feel like taking them off.
So, uh, you better go on without me.
I understand.
Whoa! They're all here.
[hissing]
[squawks]
Aw, what anime are you from?
[yelling]
Very clever.
You almost got the collection back.
Too bad you didn't know you were up against me.
Well, duh, yeah, I did. I saw your commercial.
It's the whole reason we're here.
Well, you don't have to be rude about it.
Just for that,
you get to see my special little slide show presentation.
Oh, no!
Let's start with social media presence.
Get me out of here! Get me out of here!
Push the button, Augie.
Also, this is just a memory.
I'm not, like, dead in the hole and a ghost now.
Mmm-mmm.
[breathes deeply]
- [buzzes] - My babies!
- Peter. - Little Rok.
Peter, help. I can't get out.
Augie!
Lightning teeth attack!
Oh no, my orthodontist is not gonna like this.
Peter, you plebe-- [grunts]
Oh, thank goodness I'm free.
Thank you, Peter.
No prob, dude. Now, come on.
- [yells] - [Augie screams]
Huh?
[Augie yelling]
[laughing maniacally]
Augie, did you watch my Phooey tapes?
[sighs] Yeah. Sorry.
[laughing] Don't apologize.
I knew you would.
Remember when I said you're pure of heart?
Yeah?
Well, only the pure of heart can use anime power.
[giggling] Yay!
I call upon the spirits of all my collectibles.
Lend me your strength!
[both yelling]
Meow.
No, no, no!
[grunts] Baka.
Evil has been vanquished on this day.
Why'd we leave all your toys behind?
Well, I used up the souls of those toys,
and they're worthless to me now.
Ugh, so doing all of that was ultimately pointless?
[chuckles] Augie,
every good collector has triplicates.
One to keep, one to sell
and one to marry.
Aha! Away!
