Story
"TONDEKE-MAN" is a unique time machine invented by a local inventor Dr. Leonard. It looks like a Japanese kettle and speaks human language. One day, it suddenly starts to work during an experiment, and Hayato Shindo and Yumi Arama are time-slipped to Baghdad in the 9th century. They stray from TONDEKE-MAN there and are unable to return to their original place. They incidentally save Princess Sharara who was chased by bandits. Thanking for their help, Prince Dandan and Princess Sharara assist them in searching for TONDEKE-MAN. Such unique characters as Hayato, a football boy, Yumi, a guitar girl, Prince Dandan, Princess Sharara, and Enperor Orator and Abdura who chase the princess are put into exciting adventures beyond spacetime together with the trouble-making time machine TONDEKE-MAN.
