Caramel Man 010

Caramel Man 010 (キャラメルマン10号 Kyarameru Man Jyu-gō) is the pure evil version of Caramel Man 004 (Obotchaman) . He serves Dr. Mashirito after he escapes hell in anime filler episodes of Dr. Slump Arale-chan (Epsiodes 233-234) when the evil doctor abducts Obotchaman using a scheme. He takes Obotchaman to his lab and places him into a electroshock therapy chair. Obotchaman gets heavily electrocuted twice as he lets out a bloodcurdling scream, and he gains a deep amnesia. He is renamed Caramel Man 010 to avoid confusion with the pure-hearted android Mashirito deemed a “failure”. 

Mashirito is aided by Caramel Man 010 in his conquest to destroy the Earth with a puzzle that is located within an ancient statue that needs a huge key to unlock. The evil doctor communicates to him with a red earpiece as Caramel Man 010 fends off Arale, Senbei and the Gatchans that results in a crazy frenzy of fighting across New York City. The city is obliterated as Caramel Man 010 and Arale engage in combat. They are evenly matched, and nobody seems to be winning. 

Mashirito manages to almost engage the statue’s shattering, but before he could successfully, a great monster awakens from behind the statue: the Teapot Genie. Arale and Caramel Man 010 notice the commotion, stopping their fighting. They confront the Teapot Genie. Arale challenges the majin to a battle, but she is easily defeated by the strong monster. The evil android grows empathy and remorse for Arale as she is about to be crushed. He remembers the past and all his memories flood back to him. The loving times he had with Arale, the Norimaki family and Penguin Village residents. Caramel Man 010 becomes Obotchaman once again. 

In a brave self-sacrifice, Obotchaman pushes Arale away, for him to be smashed by the Teapot Genie and destroyed.

After the Teapot Genie is defeated with near destruction of the Earth (prevented by Turbo Norimaki), Obotchaman is sent back to Senbei Norimaki's work table to be restored, and is fully repaired.
