Synopsis[]
Tired of being unappreciated by his bosses, Dada quits his job as a janitor and becomes a wrestler.
Plot[]
Dada, after being taunted by the three chefs, decides he has had enough and quits his job as the Goh-Rong Restaurant's janitor. He decides to leave Sooga Village and goes on a search to find his destiny. The search, however, becomes lengthy and, with no progress being made, Dada collapses to the floor, saying there must be more in store for him. Near him is a wrestling arena, encouraging people to challenge a robotic opponent called Robogodrilla, saying to “fulfill your destiny”. This intrigues Dada. When he enters, he is asked to clean the place, much to his disappointment. As Dada is cleaning, a floating turtle comes and offers to help Dada find his "Miagi", training him to prepare to fight Robogodrilla.
Meanwhile, back at the noodle shop, the place is a complete mess and the chefs realize that they need Dada back. They ask Pucca to find him with help from Ching, Abyo, and Garu (much to his annoyance).
Back at the ring, Dada goes under the persona of "Janitaurus" and, after successfully defeating a wrestler, prepares to fight Robogodrilla. When Pucca, Garu, Abyo, and Ching, in the audience, realize that Janitaurus is Dada, Pucca transforms into Noodle Girl and defeats the robot, much to Dada's dismay, who expresses that it is his destiny to defeat Robogodrilla. The gang encourages him to go back to the restaurant, but is interrupted by the robot, who is about to attack everyone when Dada headbutts the robot, defeating Robogodrilla. After being declared the Champion, Dada decides to go back to the noodle shop, where he uses his new skills in his favor to gain respect from the chefs.
Trivia[]
- The alias Janitaurus, fostered by Dada during the tournament, might be a portmanteau of the words Janitor (Dada's job at Goh-Rong Restaurant) and Centaurus.
- The character behind Robogodrilla looks like a recolor of Dada.
