B-Then you’re against it no matter what?
S-Tagline: What is this sombre state of affairs?
B-Yes. I can’t accept those terms
S-Negotiations have broken down haven’t they
B-That’s terribly unfortunate
H-H-hey, what’re you talking about?
H-What’ve you been discussing so earnestly?
B-It’s Switch
B-*He won’t trade with me even though he has doubles
H-ARE YOU A CHILD?

02
H-What the hell is with you you’re in high school!
H-Why’re you fussing over a stupid toy trade!
B-Shaddap!
B-As if you could understand a man’s romanticism!
H-Look at the boys around you, they’re much more mature. You two are the only ones squealing about toys
B-I didn’t squeal
S-Can we stop by here for a second?
B-Ah?
B-Huh? I didn’t even notice!
B-There was one in a place like this?
B-Gatcha Gatcha!
-Tagline – This is… The Romance of Men!

-Shinohara Kenta

03
B-Yay! I got Sidewinder! This is the one I wanted!
S- Futhermore it’s pose B, a rare
S- Trade it for my Marder Peeder
B- What’re you saying no way! I finally completed the Wonder Brothers with Sidewinder and Death Salamander!
H- What on earth are you blabbing about
H- I’ve got no idea, I’m going home
B- ‘K Bye

04
B-I’m going to go get change
S-Oh you’re so fired up Bossun
S- I’ll take you on
H- Oi what’s with that
H- Don’t write me off so easily
H- Seriously you guys let me take another look
B- What’s up with you are you lonely?
H- I don’t wanna be told that by you
S- These are the Dark Sider leaders of the evil organisation
S- Sidewinder and Death Salamander
H- Cute!!
H- What’s up with that these guys are seriously cute! These are bad guys?
S- For some reason it’s a characteristic of the enemy’s leaders to be cute
B- The leader figurines are rares
S- This is mini figurine from the special effects hero TV show ‘Slender’
S- At the moment they hold a secret underwater gimmick for one group of hardcore fans (I’m not 100% on this sentence, I made a bit of a guess)
H- I can’t believe that at all!
B- Slender is a five man fighting team
B- They have lots of poses but I’ve collected the five members

05
B- ‘Super Skinny Slender’ leader, Red Commander
H- He’s skinny
H- He’s super skinny!
H- The hero’s just skin and bones!
S- Super Skinny Slender is, as the name suggests, an organisation formed by the skinny leader
H- How come the enemies and the heroes all have ‘er’ in their names!
H- It’s confusing!
S- The mecha and weapons also all have ‘er’ in their names
H- Show me all the other guys
B- The sub leader is this guy ‘Blue Sub Leader’
H- He’s exactly as the name says!
B- The only woman ‘Pink Cheerleader’
H- Like I said the names are confusing!! This person’s not a leader!

06
B- The Slender who boasts number one strength, ‘Sepia Expander’
H- He’s not slender at all!
H- And what’s with ‘Sepia’! He’s brown right? How plain!
B- The one rumoured to have a reputation to one day betray them, ‘Cocoa Brown Suspender’
H- He’s just a regular fat guy stereotype! It just adds er to whatever it wants!
H- And the colour is brown again! It’s confusing and he has no helmet, what’s with this guy!
B- Together they make ‘Super Skinny Slender!’
H- That’s annoying!
H- Besides the leader and sub leader they’re all fatties!
H- Do these guys even have a motivation?!
B- This series has an unreasonably large amount of characters so it’s hard to complete
S- I’ve collected about half but I still have a long way to go
H- You guys’ve become so desperate about this
H- It’s so silly! I’m seriously going home!
B- Oh! I got another leader! It’s ‘Rose Madder’!
S- Good for you, this is the first time I’ve seen one
H- Oh what the hell, let me give it a go
B- Just how lonely are you?!

07
H-This is the first time I’ve tried this
H- Do you turn this?
H- It’s kind of exciting
H- Oh
H- What ‘er’ is this?
B- This is…
B- Anthony
H- Anthony??
H- He doesn’t have ‘er’!
S- He plays the important role of calling Slender when the Dark Siders appear
H- The Slender’s mobilisation relies on such a system??
H- I don’t want this! I wanted a cute Dark Sider!
S- It’s all about luck
B- If it’s not a hero or an enemy it’s lame
H- What’d you get Bossun?

08
B-Bartender
H-Lame
H- You just got a regular old guy
B- Shaddap! Bartender is an essential character, the keeper of the Slender’s hideout who takes soba-making classes on weekends!
H- He’s just a regular old man!
B- What’d you get Switch?
S- The Slim Crusader
H- What the hell yours is cool!
S- The Slim Crusader is the mysterious fighter who saves the day when Slender is in a pinch
H- Then why do you need Slender!
H- Hmph, even though I’m not really interested in all this
H- I’m frustrated I got a crap one
H- I’ll try one more time

09
B- Another Anthony
H- I don’t need an Anthony!
H- And why the hell is he a foreigner this guy pisses me off
B- Hm? What’s this?
S- It’s Rejoicer
H- Rejoicer!?
B- There was a guy like this? I didn’t know!
S- Rejoicer appeared in the movie, he’s just a minor character so it seems they didn’t make many of these
S- Rejoicer is a character who transformed with the story, and it seems they made a whole series of them
S- I’ve only got two

10
S- The second one is Downer
H- What?!
H- He looks depressed!!
H- He looks like he’s been scolded! He rejoiced too much and got scolded!
H- Is he seriously a hero??
S- I don’t have the third and fourth ones so I don’t know them but –
S- His last form is ‘It’s all over’
H- What the hell happened!!!
H- He became something incredible, what the hell happened in his third and fourth forms!
B- Woah, I really want those figures
H- Alright goddess of victory, give me a rare

11
S- It’s Anthony
H- I don’t need any more!
H- No more!
H- I don’t need another Anthony!
H- I want an ‘er’ too!
B- Come on!
B- Come on rare!
B- I got a leader! It’s ‘Clam Chowder’!
H- Cute!!
H- That one! I want that one!
H- Trade it for my Anthony!
B- No way! Their values are different!
B- Get it? When you’re trading the rule is their values must be equal!
B- Clam Chowder’s worth at least three figures!
H- I guess so
H- If that’s the case it can’t be helped…

12
H- Here
B- I said I don’t need them!
B- Why would I want three Anthonys? No way I’d trade!
H- Why not! You said you’d trade for three figures! Be a good boy and hand it over!
B- Are you some kind of thug??
Box- And so
Box- Himeko, who had been completely sucked in, joined the ranks
Box- The three forsook me to spin the dial
Box- The results-
H- Somehow…
H- We’ve collected an amazing amount without noticing
B- If we put them together could we have almost a complete set?
S- You might be right, all we have left is Spy Spider
H- Ooh! If that’s the case we should get him no matter what!

13
S- But the Gatcha Gatcha is empty
H- Ooh
B- We did all of this
H- Uoh! But whether it’s there or not is unimportant, I want it! I really want it!!
B- Hm?
B- Wait! There’s one left!
H- You’re right, you can kind of see what’s inside
S- It has lots of legs
B- That’s the Spy Spider!
H- Ohh! It’s a miracle! If we get that out our set will be complete!
B- Ah what should I do, I can’t stop shaking!
H- I’m unbelievably nervous! With this our dream will be realised!
B- Alright… I’m going for it
B- Huh!?

14
B- I…
B- I don’t have any more 100 yen coins!
S- Ah, me neither
H- Oh no me neither!!
B- Ahh! What the hell at a time like this!!
S- I’ll go get some
H- Ooh go Switch!
B- He’s so nimble at times like these
B- I’m so excited we’re almost there!
H- Yeah what is this feeling
H- It’s so weird why do I want this so much
B- The thing I want most in the whole world right now is Spy Spider
B- Hm?
B/H- Eh?
B/H – What?
B/H – Oi oi oi…

15
-Roll roll
B- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
S- What? What happened?
B- A… a kid… before us…
H- He got Spider!!!
B- W… wait kid! Don’t open that capsule!
H- We really want that one!
B- I won’t even say one, pick whatever three figures you want from these doubles!
B- Would you trade these for that one you just got?
H- So?
H- How bout it?
H- How bout it?
Kid- Hmm
Kid- Okay for three figures
Kid- Here you go

16
B- GOT IT!!!!!

H- Thanks kiddo!
B- It… it’s finally in our hands!
S- Hurry up and open it and show us Spider’s face!
B- Ku… I’m sweating so much I can’t open it!
H- Come on Spy Spider!!
B- WRONG!!!!!
B- IT’S BREEDER!!!!!

17
H- WHAT THE HELL THAT’S NOT SPIDER!!!
B- WE ALREADY HAVE FOUR BREEDERS!
H- No way, I won’t give up! Let’s go somewhere else!
B- Yeah!
B- I can’t go home like this!
Kid- Hey do you guys want Spy Spider?
B- Huh? Yeah
Kid- I’ve got doubles of that one
Kid – I’ll trade it for Breeder
Kid- Here you go
Kid- Spider

18
B- WE DID IT!!!
B- SUPER SKINNY SLENDER MINI FIGURINES
B- COMPLETE!
Box- At that time
Box- They still hadn’t noticed
Box- While they were relishing in that

19
Box – Yes
Box – That
Box – That depressing emptiness
B- C…can I say it? Why did we spend so much money on this crap
H- Didn’t I say it was forbidden to mention that!!
