Japanese Fembot Diners

The Robot Restaurant in Toyko's Red Light District Has a Giant Robotic Girl

— September 5, 2012 — Tech
Japan has done it again with this Japanese Robot Restaurant that just opened up in Tokyo's famous red light district. The restaurant features a 3.6 meter custom-made pink-haired female robot that is operated by Japanese waitresses in skimpy bikinis. Customers can also jump aboard the giant robot and take her for a spin.

Located in Kabukicho, one of the best-known red light districts of Toyko, the Robot Restaurant is the latest in cabaret entertainment. The restaurant cost ten billion yen to build and comes equipped with a giant tank filled with neon lights. Customers can choose to ride the giant robot themselves or they can pay 3,000 yen to get a private hour long show with these robotic girls.

It is rumored that the robots are inspired from the character Valkyrie in Soul Calibur. What will Japan think of next?
