'Boys with their toys.' The modern adult male is notorious for his inability to outgrow a fondness for things that go vroom, things that are big, and things that are just plain cool. Akio is no exception to this. Though he's a boy trapped in a man's body for many reasons, this is, perhaps, not one of them. After all, if we judged the male populus by its need for cool cars and nifty gadgets, not a one of them would be thought to have grown past adolescence.
This section, therefore, discusses, examines, and just plain has fun with, the toys in Akio's arsenal. The unnecessary trappings of wealth that make him the quintessential immature male to some, and the quintessential successful one to others.
