	Back when he was a kid in the '80s, Hiroyuki used to adore the original ''[[The Transformers (cartoon)\|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers]]'' cartoon. Now an adult with children of his own, he became thrilled with the newest incarnation of the ''Transformers'' brand, ''[[Transformers Animated (cartoon)\|Animated]]''. Gathering in the living room with his son, Tatsuya, they both praised the premiere episode. As a special surprise, Hiroyuki lavished upon Tatsuya a complete set of ''Animated'' [[Autobot]] toys. Unfortunately, before father and son could begin epic playtime, Mrs. Otoboto and Hiroyuki's daughter, Yūka, arrived for dinner time. Tatsuya then used his bizarre ability to stop time to "freeze" his (still-blinking) family so that he could introduce himself to the audience...and mess with his dad's glasses, too. Then unfrozen, Hiroyuki proceeded to fix his glasses and dig into his meal, only to discover that it was too hot! {{storylink\|Transform and Roll Out#Foreign dubbing)\|A New Chapter!
