Collectible Cloney Babies: Difference between revisions

Line 26:
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[The Way of the Househusband]]'' reveals that Tatsu's wife Miku is a fan of a magical girl anime called ''Policure''. Some manga and anime chapters feature him tracking down merchandise for her, from Blu-Ray to action figures. When a kid he's babysitting breaks Miku's favorite action figure by accident, Tatsu tells him they have to "bury the body" before Miku comes home. (She figures it out anyway.)
* Mikoto Misaka of ''[[A Certain Scientific Railgun]]'' goes out of her way to collect "Gekota" toys and goods, to the point where she spends an entire afternoon trying to get a particular badge from a vending machine, and she's very upset when she loses one toy to a preschool girl who actually plays with it. This is just the Gekota toys; she doesn't care about other stuffed animals.
* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh]]'' Season 0 and the manga featured this with Capsule Monsters, Capmon for short. They would come from a vending machine, with the luck of the draw determining what monster level and type you get. Part of the fun is the randomness, and that you use these monsters to battle:
** In the manga, Mokuba used a Capmon battle as a pretense to kidnap Yugi and get revenge for his big brother Seto. He deliberately ''goads'' Yami Yugi to come out and fight, believing that since he has stronger monsters, he'll win. Yami Yugi proves him wrong, but lets him off with temporary, mild hallucinations.
